You missed: c) The system needs to detect worsening conditions early either prompt you to take over with enough time to spare (or fail gracefully). That's the big thing that Mercedes guarantees here: You'll have enough time to tak

Also, even if they're separate, AC and heating can use a lot of electricity and normal ICE cars usually don't have big batteries. Especially in the winter you'd also need a solid reserve, because the car might be already be d

Telling someone who's already at the stage of self harm to just get out and meet some people is not helpful at all. You can't just "get over" a depression, it's an actual sickness. Now, I see where you're comin

Stripe has a lot of customers and probably a lot of scammers sending exactly the same messages as actual unhappy customers. Plus, it seems quite known by now that they respond on HN. So there's probably a bit of selection bias going on

Neither does posting clips of how great the system is. If they didn't want any publicity, they could simply put the system under NDA. The way it is right now, they want to have their cake and eat it too.

It's not the same as in Windows 3.1 at all. We now have shadows, gradients, far better colors and a lot of smooth animations [0]. The basics are the same, but if you compare the designs side by side, you'll find more differences t

It always depends on what your client knows. For most clients you could probably cut 30-70% of boilerplate, it's just that you don't know what. I've seen people who could exploit an unpatched Linux box in minutes but would ha

Well, what's the alternative? Surrender everything to Russia and hope they decide not to nuke us anyway? The west has drawn the line in the sand at military intervention and at some point we have to draw this line.

Both sanction-wise and publicity-wise an ongoing war is a catastrophe for Russia. Also, they invaded from three (!) sides and Kyiv is just about 100km from the border. There's obviously some propaganda and a thick fog of war going on,
