Coding can be pretty humbling. Generally speaking there are always more than one way to do it and the best way is not always the most obvious. The old saying about "sleeping on it" comes to mind. I've banged my head on a prob

This is hilarious! I've often wondered about how other's approach listing "skills" on resumes and interviews. Most of the tools we work with require working with it exclusively to become an expert.

This post cracked me up. The follow up post to this is just as good. When I first started developing software in the mid-late `90s I bought a book published by Apple called "Apple Human Interface Guidelines". I expected it to be a

I don't really see that as giving Tesla the benefit of the doubt. I read it as describing what may be a ploy to avoid the regulatory processes and that may be a valid point.

Those videos also show people successfully stopping without smashing into the car in front of them, and then getting rear ended by the driver behind them. There's your baseline.

I think they're an awful addition to driver controls. You simply cannot be distracted while driving for more than a few seconds before you're endangering yourself and others and there is no good place to put them that doesn't

I've been taping filters to box fans for decades. Got them running in my home and office 24/7. I put a filter on each side. It's pretty impressive how much they catch.
