Given how badly the cybertruck undersold, it does seem plausible that they don’t understand the demand for robotaxi either Personally, I will never trust Tesla purely due to how many YEARS they failed to deliver on their FSD promises. They

You sound surprised? The administration has been purging non-loyalists since January. I wouldn’t be surprised if they start firing anyone who even downloaded the app.

I'm not sure I entirely agree. The design of smartphones has largely been unchanged for a decade. Prior to that there was a renaissance of various designs, shapes, folds, panels, buttons, keyboards, etc. Today everyone carries around r

I would imagine that because fitness+ involves heath data it is legally complicated to launch it everywhere at once. There are probably also licensing issues with the trainers and music across various jurisdictions that need to need worked

I didn’t read the whole thing because login but yes, firing the whole team thanks to one rockstar is the most braindead bit of management I have ever heard Let’s say it’s easy to replace those people with Rust engineers (it isn’t) Lets say

If you have an expectation of privacy in any of those, you are mistaken. One of the first things I told my daughter when I gave her her first cell phone is never text anything you don’t want someone to screenshot and send it to everyone you

It’s easier to prop up a strawman then have a real discussion This “can’t say god bless you” nonsense is just moving the “war on Christmas” culture war BS even further. It is not a serious discussion. The end goal is to install the 10 comma

I set up accounts with my full legal name on them a while ago. There is minimal activity on them. If anyone wants to find me, msg me there. I do all my actual online activities with handles as God intended back in the good old days. Social

My dad was a workaholic. Also as is typical with boomers they raised us as latchkey kids I made it a requirement for my career that I wouldn’t treat my kids the same way. I set boundaries with work and am very upset when work intrudes Could

Headline isn’t true. Netflix was caught adding AI generated images in a true crime doc https://www.sfgate.com/sf-culture/article/netflix-crime-doc-... Jennifer Pans case is from 2010 so there’s no explaining away

I get what you are saying but it’s 2025 and a mobile device is basically required to operate in society today. Especially if you want an active social life or to excel at work. Nobody needs a margarita or any other addictive substance to fu

Exactly. It’s super weird to say “that reminds me of X” immediately after reading about X. Somehow I don’t think OP actually read the article before commenting.

Putty was once indispensable for me, too. The era of which also coincides with the era when browsing to long URLs to university domains with tildes and usernames was commonplace At any rate, I similarly don’t have any utility for this bitvi

Yeah I’m heavily introverted and feel the same way. It establishes a kind of social pressure that if I fail to hold up my side of the relationship I just get anxious

The prose is the art. In Blade Runner, the world is built with dense backdrops of an alien city, people walking around in strange clothes, etc. All that is imprinted on you without a single line of dialogue. With Gibson, all that world buil

Every LLM seems to have a prominent disclaimer that results can be wrong, hallucinations exist, verify the output, etc I’d wager it’s pretty much impossible to prove in court that whatever harm occurred was due to intent by xAI, or even a l

It’s a kinda meaningless statement, tbh. Pull requests to delete dead code or refactor are super common. It’s maintenance. Bravo. What was actually changed, I wonder? And the system prompt is imporant and good for publishing it, but clearly

Yes, exactly. An LLM that is trained on the language of Twitter users and interacts solely with Twitter users is deplorable. What a shock. Who knows if Elon actually thinks this is problematic. His addiction to the platform is well document

Can’t speak for her, obviously, but personally I tend to wait to make my exit once I know the role is not working out If I were in her shoes, I would have known I was going to leave during the worst of his tantrums, but I would have timed m

My vehicle UI is not a general purpose internet device. I can access vehicle features and that’s pretty much it. My car doesn’t even let you open the preferences for Spotify unless you shift to park. I can’t watch TikTok or message people.

Worth pointing out that the question of legality is besides the point if you are purposefully antagonizing the police state. It’s not about legality. It’s about compliance. If you become a target, they will arrest you and drop charges later

Let’s wait and see Waze has had a way to report speed traps for years. Where are those subpoenas? That at least is a loss of revenue. This also assumes that this can be traced back to whoever reported it in the app, and it would be trivial

These first two bullets launched well over a decade ago. The third bullet is soft because ALL vr headsets have been flops. All told you are actually painting a pretty solid picture of apples track record. They’ve launched so many things in

Both systems essentially rotate a fan and that noise will never go away But if you are trying to equate the noise of a few 4-stroke gas engines with that of brushless electric motors then I don’t think you are acting in good faith
