It is simply untrue that there are no other options. There are many options. GMO mosquitos are another unwanted product from Intrexon which specializes in GMO foods that failed in the market (GMO apples and salmon). I lived in the Keys duri

I agree. The new Nissan Airya will give Tesla a real competitor in range and charging speed and it has a much more attractive UI and interior. The Lucid Air, from a former Tesla exec, knocks Tesla out of the park on charging, speed, and ran

This feels like a solution in search of problem. Do people actually have difficulty picking a restaurant and meeting there? History would say, "They do not."

This car has the most beautiful dashboard and UI that I've ever seen in a vehicle. This is a real place where there's room for improvement. Compare the sad, 80's look of Ford's latest EV dashboards, or VW's.

Anyone wondering why US brands aren't taking off in EV's need look no further than this dumpster fire from Ford. The 80's called and they'd like their UI back. The second largest thing on the screen is... wait for it...

I'm fascinated by EV car displays and UIs and I think this is gorgeous. See the video to catch the UI in action. Super high res animations and lighting effects.

This was great! Still amazing that we had a Chevy Volt, as Jay calls it, in 1909. I love his depth of technical knowledge and storytelling ability.

While the second part of this is true, don't count on anyone helping you fix bugs unless you pay them. The average number of contributors to GitHub projects is 1. All the big projects have paid people from FAANGs or non-profits who pay

This author had it right. Apple had to kill HyperCard because it let users be in charge of their computers, which is anathema to the company's business model. In doing so, they also killed their chance at being in the applications soft
