I'm a Director (of software engineering, not the cool kind who directs movies). I keep no important files on my desktop (usually stupid screenshots to be shared, or quick notes for myself). My email inbox has zero unread messages. I ha

Time to tell your in-laws to keep their key cards with them.

In the end it's the car operator's fault. From the Model 3 manual: CAUTION: Always carry your key card with you in your purse or wallet to use as a backup in case your authenticated phone has a dead battery, or is lost or stolen.

Exactly, I always have my key card on me. I'm not stupid.

I have that disabled in my car, but not for reasons such as "hey, I'm gonna be an idiot". I just don't like cameras focused on me.

Couldn't the paper feel be solved by a simple screen overlay on an iPad? Something thin enough to give the texture? Almost like an anti-glare screen protector. I'll admit, the pencil on glass just doesn't feel right. I'd

Easy, start drinking heavily before your work day is supposed to be done, and eventually you just can't work. Hah. I kid. I have a dedicated home office, so when I'm done I just leave the room and don't go back until the next

Good questions. I was looking for a "phone side". To make, or receive a call you have to use two hands to open that thing up and use it? Is anti-ergonomic a design? How can you see who's calling? Even something as simple as t

If by datalog with Clojure, you mean Cognitech's Datomic, yeah it's pretty friggin' cool. Really really liked it (well, the concept)... Until we started working out licensing and realized we were going down a rabbit hole of u

I miss Tiger as well. It was very pleasing to look at. It's one reason I dug OS X. If I have to stare at something all day, I want it to look nice. Full screen terminals running tmux do not do it for me. Now everything is literally fla

My favorite computer of all time was my Atari 1040ST. Having built in MIDI meant so much for me when I was in my teens! Would love to have another.

Then you have to deal with the fact that you get a bunch of developers not liking the default implementation that was given to them and complain that they can’t write their own. Everyone starts screaming “walled garden!” and that they’re he

Would be nice if The Skeptic's Annotated Bible could be added to the API. Doubt that though. http://skepticsannotatedbible.com/

I am sure both of us risk getting our accounts flagged or banned for having an opinion, but perhaps you could use the API to display what concerns you. I can say pretty much all of it concerns me. I don't believe in cherry picking &quo

"Rocket Equation", thank you! I've had a total brain-block on that term as I was literally just trying to answer a question related to this, on a Tesla forum, and I couldn't remember the name! The inevitable question of

That looks pretty cool, thanks for the info. I think I’m gonna go buy it for the hell of it.

I am seeing people post this like it’s strange. I have the same policy where I work. We don’t have sick days. It’s all PTO. Am I missing something here?

Yes, they are people too. :-)

I may be incorrect, but I recall it being about someone on Twitter had sent a message to Elon asking if they could turn down the volume of the alerts because it would wake up their kids while they were driving. His name was Joe. So Tesla im

Software is why I love my Tesla Model 3. Sure, there are improvements they can make with the infotainment system, but that is where they f’n rule! It just gets better. Over-the-air software updates are what have totally pushed them ahead. T

I have had this thought for many years. Where is all the perfectly designed, bug free, maintenance-bliss, fully documented, fully tested, future-proofed code located so we can all marvel at its glory?

Wow, I must say that was one of the most informative articles I have ever read about the topic. I've known a few technical book authors but none have given such an awesome breakdown of the process. Thank you!

I just feel like I am being punished with this since I was randomly picked for the beta. Here is a clause that just irks me: “If you fail to submit your ticket stub more than once, your account will be canceled and you'll be ineligible
