Yeah that one is amazing. Also the auto-correcting basketball backboard that makes your shot always go in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FycDx69px8U&t=457s

Actually, as a mechanical engineer at a consumer products startup, I would have appreciated this clarification.

I suppose the best comparison would be to compare non-Tesla owners of the same demographic. Are accident rates correlated to SES? Do people who buy luxury sedans crash less?

Just a guess: probably.

Still, I know I drive stupidly sometimes, and autopilot might help.

Can only speak from my experience - I'm a westerner who spent time living with a Chinese family as a 16 y.o.

From my outsider perspective, it's not that there is no western analog; rather the meaning changes with context and therefore it is difficult to translate as a single concept (in English at least).

From your response above, I think that you're correct (from my experience) in saying it is "trust, bonding, reciprocity, and empath", just not necessarily at the same time.

Sometimes it's "trust", sometimes its "nepotism". But it's definitely fluid.

I visited the region (eastern Sichuan, Tibetan plateau) in 2006, and played counterstrike and diablo 2 against monks at the local internet cafe. Very surreal, getting shot in the head by a monk.
