I built self driving cars (at Lyft), including behavioral planning algorithms.

I have run these essays by engineers at Waymo, Lyft, Uber, Nuro, etc and they have verified all of the information (I've incorporated any feedback).

That's fair, although credentials != proof. Working for Waymo, Lyft, Uber, Nuro etc is a credential. The engineers you mentioned have verified that what you wrote fits with the method/ approach they think will work. There is a possibility that they're/ you're wrong.

Yeah fair, I wanted to see if you were full of shit, but you probably know more than me, and bickering and points scoring over stupid things is how hacker news turns into reddit, sorry.
