Based on that list it boils down to 2 things it seems: - cost (no longer a problem) - too much code needed and it bloats the data pipelines. Does anyone have any actual evidence of this being the case? Like yes, code would be needed, but wh

Elon cult members still to this day will tell me that because humans only use vision to drive all a Tesla needs is simple cameras. Meanwhile, I've been driven by Waymo and Tesla FSD and Waymo is by far my pick for safety and comfort. I

I loved season 1. Season 2 I thought was great, but to me they opened much more new story than they resolved. I worry season 3 will be much of the same, especially if they’re saying season 4 is basically a certainty. I think severance could

For me, getting into management was less about feeling bogged down in the specifics, but more about control (directed mostly above). Anyone who’s had a bad manager or bad decisions they need to adhere to might be familiar with the feeling t

As someone with a 4k tv and an Apple TV 4K, I thought that all of my streamed content was in 4k. When I recently switched to self-hosting, I was almost certain since I was so used to 4k that I’d need to self-host all 4k content. I realized

Yeah I do the same. I’ve seen great results from writing out a large slack, copying it into ChatGPT and saying “write this more succinctly”. Then, of course, I review the output and make some manual edits here and there. That last thing is

Repairing grandfather clocks isn't more expensive now because it's gotten any harder; it's because the popularity of grandfather clocks is basically nonexistent compared to anything else to tell time.
