How complicated is the software update? This might warrant a more proactive approach, like having technicians go to the owners home and update there. Not sure who should pay for this though.

You can approach it like that too. I was thinking more in terms of using the existing interfaces.

I've had this thought before -- that there's lots of good ideas and insights hidden in the deluge of comments on hn, reddit etc -- and GPT might be used to find them. But I haven't figured out a good prompt yet.

I doubt it. I predict a small temporary decline, mostly due to inflation. Demand will remain high. TC will recover when the stock market rebounds in a few years.

I got lucky early on with my job. It was great, mostly because I liked the people I worked with. So I cannot relate to your experience. But in terms of trying to influence things (like effect major change), I never really tried to do that.

1/1668 = 0.0006, so it's right. Maybe the historical values are wrong.

I wonder if they plan to test in Europe. I moved to France and one issue I struggle with as a human driver is speed limits. I live in a suburban area where most streets have 30kmh limits (19mph). Nobody respects them, not even busses. I oft

This is a lost cause. Similar to Seoul (it blew my mind when I heard it pronounced by locals: soh-wool, because the letters are s-eo-ou-l).

I like it, especially the quotes. Reminds me of linguee.fr, which I use often while learning French.

One of the main reasons for permissive immigration policies is economic growth. More people -> more consumption and possibly more production.

Reading a bit of the paper, it seems the title is indeed meant to be tongue-in-cheek ambiguous. The first example in Table 1: "I’m afraid the cat was hit by a car." Disambiguation 1: I'm worried... Disambiguation 2: I'm

That's pretty amazing. Is floor heating enough in the winter? Can you turn up the temperature if needed? In the house I am in right now the floor heating is not enough, they had to add radiators. All electric.

If you're in the EU, why bother with American content? There's a lot of EU content, plus all the Korean stuff. I'm learning French and have been watching lots of French movies and series that only have French subtitles.

I moved to France last year and I'm pretty sure I eat less meat. Between the good veggies and fruits and the fantastic cheeses there is a lot of stuff that's just better to my palate than meat.

Having moved from a dense hcol area of the US to a dense hcol area of France, my experience has been that 1) I have access to specialists with less than a week wait in both places, but 2) costs in France are much lower than US.

Not my experience in France. I see some price increases, but nothing outrageous. And €7.99/kg for whole chicken was last year's price in my area (near Paris).
