Some form of charging standard was coming. Tesla had two options: (1) push for NACS to be that standard, or (2) allow another standard to come into play. (2) would have been a terrible outcome for Tesla - all the money invested in existing

I've cancelled my NYT sub online, a year or two back. I keep seeing anecdotes like yours pop-up, though. I don't know if they have different policies based on billing address or something. I remember distinctly because when I _fir

I had a gym membership that I wanted to cancel because I had moved, and their closest location was no longer convenient. First, they tried to tell me I had to go back to the location I had originally signed up at in order to cancel. No phon

My Pixel 5 had an issue with its power button a few weeks back where it would self-press the button. (I believe some rain had gotten in somehow and was shorting the button). This resulted in the phone doing various things, such as opening t

Weeks are not snakes, either. They're continuous, forever. Do snakes line up mouth to tail forever?

I am able to add additional premium payments to my payment, or as a separate payment, via my online mortgage payment site. It sounds like the bank/site your loan is under is actively hostile towards such payments. I don't know eno

There's more nuance there: > I didn’t realize at the moment there’s an inconsistency in the naming of this special repo containing profile READMEs and that it differs for users and organizations: name/name vs. name/.github

Your assumption is that these cheating students will continue to have an enabler with them through their entire career. Furthermore, your assumption is that a cheater will be the best doctor. It's not about the method - it's about

Illegal isn't binary - just look at speed limits. Everyone speeds at least a little, and FSD/AP had to be allowed to speed to be safe

Not quite a "recall" in the normal sense. They're disabling the "rolling stop at stop sign" feature of FSD for those in the beta.

The license seems to refer to $1m in 2019 dollars: "earned less than 1,000,000 USD (2019)"

The early years are generally accompanied by huge cash bonuses so it evens out against the back loaded equity.

Also... Sentry is logging. It's a very fancy logger that can capture all sorts of data about the exception and what was happening - but at its core, it's still a essentially a logger.

The number is only five in both cases because only one plot was eventually used. Had the Morpheus 5 been kept in, it would have been trivial to use a different number of cycles (7, 10, 400, whatever) and avoid the confusion.

I've successfully cancelled my NYT sub online before. It's a little tucked away but it exists. I remember when I first subscribed that wasn't possible - because a few months in they sent me an email basically talking about ho

I can +1 this. I'm on caffeine now, but once a year or so I will "detox" from it to reset for a few months. The first days/weeks are exactly like you said. The only difference is that after a month or so, I go back to co

Not everyone needs or wants aerobic exercise every gym visit. Or maybe they prefer swimming to running or biking. Not everyone lives somewhere where the weather is always nice enough to run/bike to the gym, either. Maybe this is always

We make those choices all the time. Taking a plane instead of driving is similar. You lose direct control, but it's orders of magnitude safer. I'll take a 0.001% chance of death over a 0.1% chance every time.

The existence of valid licensing fees does not mean all licensing fees are valid. Surgeons are allowed to legally cut people, that doesn't mean we can't figure out when someone was illegally stabbed. Let's not give up without

When my friends text me to say they are "on their way" I don't exactly jump to the conclusion that they are literally going to ram my house with their car.

The sub-headline of the article says it too: "The gargantuan Bernardinelli-Bernstein comet will strafe Saturn's orbit in 2031. Scientists are stoked." If anything were actually on a collision course with Earth, I can almost g

Hunger is a pesky thing, however. And I tend to agree with the conclusion of the article - what's the point in saving that money if one has to live on a shoestring budget to acquire it? Specifically the "work all your life, end wi

The theoretical "additional license" would be in addition to maintaining awareness, not a substitution. So all the normal road awareness, plus being informed of likely FSD failure conditions, and anticipating them / being rea

Google Glass is another example of this. Everyone freaked out about it being a camera always at the ready. It was a more obvious camera, and that freaked people out - never mind that, if someone wanted to take a picture surreptitiously, the

My approach was to have a default kubeconfig for dev/QA environments, and a separate for production. I had a quick wrapper script to use the prod config file - it would set the KUBECONFIG env car to use the prod file, and update my PS1
