I can't believe that you were willing to abbr. "Google" with "GOOG" but had to use "almost" in this sentence (utterly redundant word here) or "1 GB/sec" instead

Sorry, i don't know how much "effort" you put into your abbreviation but your title looks like a dirty hack, i would never want on the front page.
Google Car gathers 1GB/sec. What it "sees" making Left turn
That would have been better in my opinion.
With all due respect, i think the Mod changing the title is justified in this case.
- kamkazemoose 13y agoI don't think you can leave out the self-driving car. 'Google Car' is ambiguous and could mean either the Google Streetview cars or their self-driving cars.
- ari_elle 13y agoIf you think so: -) Google Self-Driving Car gathers 1GB/s. Picture of it analyzing left turn -) Google Self-Driving Car gathers 1GB/s. What it "sees" making Left Turn My critic is not so much with the title op chose, more so that he/she felt the need to make the case that a Mod shouldn't have changed it. Op wanted to know why it is Mod did it, i answered.
- hammock 13y agoThe word almost was not kept for accuracy's sake (could have said ~1GB/sec), but for the word's storytelling quality. Imagine if we had said the car "collects barely 1 GB/sec." Without "almost," it becomes more difficult, however so slightly, to grasp that 1 GB/sec is an impressive amount of data.
