Then that’s impossible because I know for a fact that long distance trains have windows. But also, RENFE incident dataset is publicly available and updated in real time, and there is no way in hell the number of reported incidents is higher than the overall number of broken cars, not even if we were to average by number of passengers, and especially given the fact that the average car fleet age in Spain is 14 years.
Where do you live, that trains don’t have windows or doors that can be opened, and these incidents happen so frequently? Because this is not at all my experience in Western Europe.
Regardless, it is a fact that cars break down more frequently and remediations take longer.
You have different companies responsible for operating the train, the tracks and providing services inside the train. Planes are similar but international services are common and better organized.
I’m not sure what you are trying to say here, because you imply that this isn’t an issue inherent to trains since the solution in the aviation world is to contract ground crew where airlines have none of their own, which could very well be done by train operators as well.
Also, being stuck inside an airliner while taxiing, with no A/C, just because the systems malfunction slightly and tower don’t agree on which gate they could assign to the flight since it is very early, is a thing I’ve gone through a few times. So, again, not exclusive to trains.
None of these issues is exclusive to trains. I would argue that they are more common in cars, and even more, cars take, on average, longer to repair.
You see multiple news every day about trains in Spain,Poland or Germany with broken AC or just completely failing between stations.
I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here. Cars break down all the time, and there’s the entire car repair industry to prove that, but obviously they don’t make the news.
Sounds like you want more and better public transportation.

None of them are relevant in terms of performance.
“Open source AI models” are a lie. They all are leftovers from SaaS companies. “Self hosting AI” will not only never be competitive with these companies closed source offerings in any meaningful way, but also, the moment they stop publishing open weight models, there is no chance in hell that new, community driven ones will pose any threat to SaaS products.



Same could be said about AI mongers.
I’ve noticed that many recent apes submitted to projects I follow are from people who couldn’t write a “hello world” a month ago. Now, they are burning tokens on a few agents that scan public repos for reported bugs and submit patches. Of course, they don’t know what the code does. They are farming something, maybe reputation, maybe something else, but in no way are they coders.
