Videos on YouTube[1] show that the car drives itself even with hands off the wheel. However, I've also read that the car will prompt the driver to keep their hands on the wheel and even turn on emergency flashers/slow to a stop i

Yes. Plex's Android TV app is very slick. I was impressed.

FWIW Android TV does universal search very well, and has had it since launch. But I do think that this Siri integration is a notch above what anyone else has right now.

The Shield is an amazingly good device but it will never sell at anything near the rate of Apple TV. It's targeted toward gamers and enthusiasts, many of whom already have a console already.

Yes, and it seems like they've got their "Wii Sports" lined up.

This device looks slick but I'm very disappointed that it doesn't really bring anything new to the table. It might be best of breed in terms of polish and features compared to Android TV, Fire TV, etc - but functionally, it'

> "Tesla’s $35,000 Model 3 Sedan Goes into Production, Preorders Next March" Yikes, very misleading title - the Model X is currently going into production, not the Model 3.

Sounds like this system is in place to prevent people who abuse Amazon's lenient refund and return policy from costing them thousands of dollars. In this particular case, it seems that several subsequent order problems in a short time

1) Sure - it's one factor among many in the purchasing decision. Never said otherwise. It would also be incorrect to assume that this was not a factor at all. 2) Ever looked at a tech company parking lot in South Bay? A lot of people

It indicates that "the dangers of cloud-enabling cars" are in fact "justified by the features provided" for a nontrivial number of people.

What makes you think that nobody is questioning it? I'm sure some people are, but the fact that informed consumers are purchasing these cars speaks for itself.

Sounds like Tesla worked with these guys to patch this for all owners before it was disclosed. And they hired Chris Evans from Chrome/Project Zero to lead security. To me those are signals that they take this seriously.

I remember reading about Amazon making warehouse employees sign a non-compete agreement - a stipulation that was rather quickly reversed after The Verge and other publications exposed it. What other examples of terribleness have you read a

Very interesting extension. Doesn't the YouTube ToS prohibit playing just audio from a video? (#8 and #9 under Prohibitions are where I got this impression: https://developers.google.com/youtube/terms )

A lot of accusations in this article, which presents a very one-sided take on the issue. The author knew what they wanted to say and found information and anecdotes to support it. Not saying that's wrong, but I think Google should hav

How realistic is it to earn 200k in your twenties? I'm familiar with the starting numbers at companies like Google and Facebook, which are very competitive but pretty far from 200k even with stock and bonuses.

Thanks for the clarification. I didn't even realize they offered this - CloudFlare really seems to dominate the narrative in this area.

I hear at Berkeley some of the intro classes can reach 1,200. More students registered then there are seats. Students are forced to skip class and watch recorded lectures online.
