Maybe this is a fluke, but a few months ago an ABC reporter documented her Waymo ride and it had a couple goof ups. https://youtu.be/-Rxvl3INKSg Ultimately, I don't think the driving screw ups were that big of a deal (

I’ve been thinking of switching to Kagi too so this is good to hear. My biggest concern is that they’ll eventually sell out and flip on their current privacy policy as we’ve so many other tech businesses do.

Ai is misleading because it's too broad and consumers confuse it as AGI which is far more powerful (and not yet possible). From a marketing perspective this is a feature, not a bug since it gives off the appearance of being a much bigg

Just my opinion here... The first example with map reverse is very readable and an improvement over lambda syntax. The chaining example (filter on length) is horrible for readability and I greatly prefer the lambda syntax.

I have to disagree. "Machine learning" could just as easily be a marketing buzzword. Artificial Intelligence is just sexier because it's misleading (while being broad enough to be acceptable).

Yes and a lot of these suburbs are built upon the mudslides from previous (recent) eruptions (few million people). Last I heard it was a 1 in 7 chance in my lifetime. It's incredibly stupid and dangerous. Mudslides can travel up to 50

I occasionally get some lazy high maintenance customers (B2B) that I’d rather not have. It gives me a fair amount of stress at times. Even though they generate revenue they are absolutely a liability and I’d pay to quietly get rid of them.
