Acceleration is change in velocity and change in time, either can effect the apparent amount of acceleration. The velocity you accelerate to or from is just an implementation detail.

If you actually read the article you will see it works in an entirely different manner.

This is incorrect. You don’t get motion sick on a treadmill because the small accelerations and decelerations match what your eyes are seeing. There is motion.

That’s simply not the case. Read some studies, all of your assumptions here are incorrect. Eyeline is slightly correlated with safety when compared with a device you need to locate, however with a constant position device the effect disappe

> you don't have acceleration If you actually use a treadmill, or watch motion capture, you’ll see that this isn’t the case. It’s a lot of slight accelerations and decelerations. The variation change from person to person, and more

If you look into what those metric changes are related to, you’ll find that it’s almost entirely uncorrelated with stiffer incarceration and zero tolerance policies, which was my point.

Google Assistant Driving Mode will be left. Driving Mode Dashboard was a terribly named stopgap with large buttons. It’s almost entirely unrelated to Driving Mode. Totally agree with the point that, as usual, the branding is awful. They nee

This misses the reason that distracted driving happens though, which is because people are bored. They know ahead of time they’re going to be bored, so they plan other things to escape their boredom. Phones give you more options but many pe

Speed limits aren’t the problem because people ignore them and drive by feeling. The correct solution is not more enforcement but rather better design to reduce the speed that feels right. Narrower lanes, chicanes, barriers between pedestri

I think this is a useful anecdote because it really underscores that the problem is distractions. There’s a fascinating body of research looking into how well humans perform repetitive tasks that generally require little thought but sometim

That’s correct, now that the full Driving Mode is ready and being rolled out they’re killing all the dangerous stopgap measures they previously created. Edit: I think their strategy here confused people because most people seem to think tha

That’s working correctly. Stop looking at your phone while driving. Buttons on a screen are a bad idea and should be highly discouraged for drivers. Big buttons almost make that worse because of licensing, i.e. people see a thing labeled ca

If you read that article, or even the subtitle, you’ll see that it’s talking about Android Auto, which is importantly different from the Google Assistant Driving Mode I mentioned. Amusingly apropos the main complaint that people seem to hav

Consider getting an Android, driving mode is implemented extremely well.

I don’t understand the point of comments like this, are you trying to refute their point with a single anecdote? Why not add some context or explanation?

I guarantee you that this is not the case. Go watch an old CRT, even the eye-wateringly expensive ones sucked compared to even a mediocre OLED. We just think they were great because of the SD pieces of crap we compared them to. Ditto for al

The evidence that blue light is bad for sleep is much worse from an experimental standpoint than the evidence that it improves cognition and reaction time, which are obviously rather important considerations in street lights. Consider for i

Your argument is that a brain which is functioning so poorly that it thinks it’s a reptile will be convinced by some piece of paper from a lab? That’s an interesting thought.

This kind of attack can happen on any tech stack where bad passwords have ever been allowed. The dunking is obviously fun, but the fact that the underlying technology happened to be Microsoft’s is largely irrelevant.

There was never any chance of this not happening, though. Ongoing engineering requires ongoing revenue.

Thank you for providing such an excellent example of how easy it is to dismiss things without understanding them.

Good thing it’s not up to them then. They don’t get to say that something isn’t art.

Saying seriously asking and then asking an unserious question is like saying no offense before telling someone to fuck off.

This is just the fallacy of the Protestant work ethic with different words. Things don’t need to be difficult to be good. You can’t tell how hard an artist worked just by looking at the piece. There’s a lot of truly terrible art that has ha

You should read the response more carefully. Generative models are just tools. If I use one to write a story it’s no less a story that I wrote than if I’d chiseled it into a Persian mountainside.
