A junior product manager at DJI could have spotted this as a risk on day two. This is a predictable problem that is completely solvable, if only the company had an interest in doing so. There are a lot of people who have done a lot less who

The messy reality is that there’s a lot of misinformation and a public narrative about Tesla that is largely false. But… there are also kernels of truth!

I don’t disagree with that statement, but isn’t it dissonant for there to be no discussion of how the audience here seems to ignore the topic of war when it’s fought in our names by real people, but holds ourselves to such high minded ideal

Look at every reply here. It jumps to a conclusion that an unmanned vehicle is making decisions about who dies and thus must be bad. It overlooks the fact that most of us enjoy the stability and protection of militaries that are real people

what I find to be the hardest part of this discussion is that the people who are most righteous and opinionated about technology like this aren’t the same people whose sons and daughters would be in the cockpits or on the battlefields as th

This might be something of a technicality but I doubt it was their marketing team who is at fault. If it’s over-monetization of search results that you have a problem with as I do, it’s more likely to have been product leaders with aggressi

I’ve been defaulting to Reddit for a long time and I’m shocked at how good search is on TikTok for the right topics. The fact that Google so prominently and commonly surfaces “[query] Reddit” as a suggested search says a lot.

My partner occasionally fawns over the idea of buying a vintage Jeep, "just to drive around town, not on the highways". Safety has always been my #1 point of pushback, and when we looked into what can happen even in a low speed ac

Same thing has happened to me. FSD sounded the alarm and hard braked on a dark two lane highway. I couldn’t see why until I fully passed someone dressed in dark clothing who had just crossed the road. I was paying full attention and never s

I don't think any manufacturer or buyer would tell you that's one of the problems they are trying to solve. People buy cars for status, comfort, fun, and convenience. A distant notion of a carless world that most people can't

Of course, it's a spectrum. It's nowhere near dangerously over-cautious. I'd describe it as a very prudent new driver. It drives the way most people probably should, but that means there's a little hesitation in low-risk

With v12, all you have to do is tap the accelerator and FSD takes the hint that it's safe to proceed or safe to go faster.

I use it daily and I would be the first person to agree that it isn't 100% perfect, but not in the way you are assuming. The flaws it has are that it errs on the side of being too cautious.

I’ve thought about doing this myself and I wish there was a service that made it easier. The one thing in the back of my mind is also that there’s a risk of this backfiring over time. When you are unknown to potential creditors, employers,

I don't entirely disagree with your point, and I see the real harm done here. But if I were a juror on this case, I'd have a really hard time being a part of taking away a full third of another human beings' life for what he

The way that society is so quick to accept evidence positioned as "scientific" as unequivocally true boggles my mind. Bite mark identification, arson investigation, just how far out on a limb many medical examiners are willing to

I’m 38 and I’ve had essential tremor for as long as I can remember. For most of my life it wasn’t much of a nuisance but it’s slowly and progressively worsened over the last 5 or so years. I won’t dare try to pick up a full drinking glass a

Genuinely curious why I'm getting downvoted - similar comments don't appear to have met the same fate, and I'm by no means defending Altman or OpenAI. If it's because I mentioned that Altman is gay - and I can't fin

Unsurprising turn of events. Musk can't stand not being at the top of the food chain, and it's been widely reported on that he's felt "left out" as AI has taken off while he has been consumed by the disaster he crea

I’d describe myself as a slow thinker. I’m hesitant to bring up politics, but I’ve been contemplating this in the context of the upcoming election. I have complete faith in Joe Biden’s ability to make sound decisions through a slow and deli

I've always thought of the national anthem as more of a collective show of appreciation for the good parts of the US, which is probably why I've always been OK with it. The pledge of allegiance, on the other hand, feels like a for

Completely fair, but the fact that this “problem” was so ubiquitous for so long should be factored into the decision of whether or not to issue a recall. Recalls aren’t without negative consequences - huge effort and actual cost, opportunit
