Regarding this, I strongly believe the correct approach is L3 capability but only expressed through L2 features. We're not at a point where it's safe for drivers to move their attention from driving, but the technology is mature e

Emily has a name, and I don't see how you've come to that conclusion. Her account of living resonates with a lot of my reflections when I left my previous job. Perhaps you haven't yet been lucky enough to have a job that has

Not sure about LFT, but in the UK private PCR tests (required for travelling, professional elite sport etc.) cost between £80-130.

I purchased and returned a pair of the AirPods Max, with the discomfort being the deciding factor in me not keeping them. I was mostly impressed with the audio (although the spatial audio didn't really resonate with me, pardon the pun)

I saw a journalist share Typerighter on Twitter and was intrigued, so I'm looking forward to reading this. It's a bit surprising that the engineering blog appears to be embedded in the main site, though. I've worked at a news

The duckduckgo icons are labelled as such. Plenty of icon sets will have recognisable brand assets for the likes of social media platforms and so on, which will allow use according to certain guidelines. Their inclusion probably isn't

Everything I've mentioned certainly applies to the 2017 flagship A1 OLED (which I use daily at home), so it was not limited to the cheaper models. By XMB evolution I mean it's not quite the XMB, but the secondary menus when you ge

As someone who a few years ago worked for a broadcaster and had a small amount of experience with building applications for television, Sony were always ambitious for their UX and would make good decisions such as going with what was at the

It's both remarkable and entirely unsurprising how poorly the transition has been handled by the government. Regardless of the longer term impact of the deal or its positives/negatives, it's a mess currently. The mess could h

Yeah that seems a real missed opportunity here. I’ve never seen the show but admit that old SD programmes tend to fall down the list of shows to watch. To have the opportunity to see a high-fidelity but true-to-composition version would rea

Not only do I agree that it would probably be less enjoyable, but I also expect it would be less safe. A driver actively piloting a car will be focused and experienced at that task. That same driver will not have had any tuition or assessme
