Parkinson's, actually. They corrected it to LBD during his autopsy.

Apparently him and his wife weren't satisfied with the Parkinson's diagnosis as he had some abnormal psychological issues, so they decided to have some neurology tests scheduled. He unfortunately took his life before the appointment, so he never knew the real diagnosis.

The thing with Robin is that, regardless of his mental health, he would've been the type of person to curse the choice of bringing someone back to be wasted on him.

While it is commonly believed he took his life due to a constant battle with depression, we do not know exactly what his resolve was, and bringing him back could be seen as hell in his eyes.

Well, NASA sometimes works with sensitive info and projects of which sometimes can get shared with their contractors, SpaceX included. Having Musk going through with his escapades, acting otherwise unstably, and now talking with an unfriendly figure to the US. It starts to raise some serious questions regarding national security. NASA is more or less just bringing it to attention.

Honestly, Neil D. Tyson comes off as an arrogant douchebag, same with Bill Nye.

  • riding your delivery bike down the footpath at high speed weaving between pedestrians

Gotta include the ones riding at night in black/dark clothes with no reflectors or lights; be it using the crosswalk, against a 'do not cross' or in the middle of the [car] lane, ignoring the bike lane.

Not yet, at least.

The current tech doesn't really factor in road conditions AFAIK. Which is a pretty big factor that dictates how brakes should be applied to stop safely.

One example is, if you're driving along an area with a soft or no shoulder during rain or snow, stopping suddenly could easily make the car slide off the road and end up upside-down or down a cliff. There unfortunately are times where hitting someone/something is unavoidable, along with being the safest option and the decision making capability isn't fully there yet.
