The Model S now only requires human intervention if it has detected obstacles (e.g. pedestrians) while stopped, otherwise it should be able to resume automatically.

The main advantage HFTs have over humans is that they can react quickly to new information. The frequency of new information becoming available is only an added bonus, not a requirement.

A few years ago, a URL shortener was running on the .to ccTLD itself. That was the shortest possible URL shortener service since there are no single-character TLDs. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work anymore.

Yeah by natively I meant without installing 3rd party apps, which is what the GP complained about.

Thanks! I wish Netflix would publish their per-region catalogue, so we don't have to resort to (often inaccurate) third party lists.
