So in the ~50 posts written so far, the biggest word I don't see yet wrt Tesla is "supercharge", as-in their supercharging network. It remains an enormous Achilles' heel for competitors that really kind of puts a hard st

While it points to some interesting new potential surprise issues, I'll admit I'm not a fan of the leadoff Tesla example and that I think it points to a reason that not all of these things will actually be as big a deal as has bee

With the GX (which I got, and it still works) you could run metakernel [0], which itself was one heck of an upgrade over the base system and really an unbelievably impressive effort in its own right. It pushed the hardware so much farther i

Could say the same thing about iOS, and this is a silly UX complaint anyway. Apple could easily offer or require some purposeful interaction using mouse/keyboard along with Face ID and it'd still be a nicer UX.
