Why would a voice synthesizer and ad firm have any rights here? There's no "AI" here in the sense of some sentient being, are you stupid?

I don't think scammers will be listening in on shortwave to grab names or an address during an emergency :p

First to market, but with beginner mistakes. I'll wait for a more mature EV truck myself. I want a simple box frame, with a body on frame, nothing fancy. Just pure utilitarian EV truck like a base F150 but with a battery.

I have an old house that had ungrounded outlets. My MBP made me take on costly electrical repairs cuz I got so sick of the shocks and tingling sensation whenever id touch it while charging. I should've put a multimeter on it to see wha

Saying "someone doesn't have the technology or expertise" is a point in time statement only true that moment. Progress marches ever forward, and China has quite a few exceptional engineers and scientists (and money) to pursue

Don't feel too bad about your truck in a junkyard. It has probably donated enough parts to keep a dozen other ones on the road with economical scrapped parts.

Lots of passed off vehicles to poorer countries tend to be body on frame style. Lots of ford/Toyota trucks, where frame damage can as "simple" as welding steel bar stock or straightening with a basic frame puller. If a unibo

Would you rather the keys be $5 from Walmart and pair with the car without needing an OEM programmer?

Because the welding/bolting/etc joining processes are intricate and time consuming, and also equally as hard to repair.

I mean, there's certainly rebuilt/salvaged cars, but more often than not people are scammed into buying those from shady AF places. Lesson is, don't waste your time or money on a unibody car with major damage. Scrap em. It&#

It makes me feel even better looking at accomplished peoples work. Seeing the whole thing come together, everyone's contributions that lead to works of art, science, engineering, etc. It would make me feel shitty that "accomplish

I question the motives of people who wax philosophic about this subject matter. Of all the gray areas of the law - one thing any normal person would find revolting is someone's attraction to minors. Now I've opened the door to pe

How does one train an AI model for this? What the heck is your defense for someone engaging in this?

Why are you deflecting away from people are are taking steps to further their fetish of minors?

I don't even care - the HN crowd is uhhhh, how do I say... quite on the spectrum. Jumping to defend RMS, saying it's totally ok just because he's autistic. Didn't really expect much to be honest given past discussions h

Exim is an old codebase, but I've interacted with the devs often, this doesn't jive with my experience. Even filing a bug report or help request, they request the standard stuff to reproduce, config examples of the help request t

Maybe people would simply like choice? I know I know, Apple doesn't really offer any choice on their phones, but the point is they should.

It's also liability. If insurance determines frame damage, they're inclined to often total it and settle with you. You ain't getting that car unless you buy it back. I know this since I've worked in insurance, they don&#

Unibody cars are already totaled out for frame damage pretty often. It can be very hard to properly repair structural and safety elements of a modern unibody. Not to say you won't see it on the road, but it will be a salvage/recon

It happens more often than you think. Plus, odd issues, like a glitch with their servers causes the card reader to not work. Theres a ton of device verification and security checks on those readers that bounce back and forth between their s

How slow are the rest of your tools? The Slack client probably performs worse today than it did a few years ago. It has the laggiest interface of any of my tools, you can watch your CPU spike to 60-80% just switching channels. Just do it ri

Of course this isn't a typical single load balancer for cross AZ - but the general gist of their "new" architecture is first principles level of design. But sure, we can celebrate their minor achievement I guess

Lots of teams use Slack as well. Oddly enough, I didn't mind Chime as an end-user, but 6 years ago their API features were somewhat lacking.

It even pains me to see they're suffering from so many own goals. And it's unfortunately reflected in the poor experience using the Slack client. Not to mention the multiple deprecated bot/integration APIs with such bad featu

XMMP was extensible to support all this in the early 2000s. Slack reinvented simple services in the most obtuse way. I have to use Slack and I sideline quarterback all the ways things could have been better every day.
