alternatively, it’s nice to see a large company avoid micromanaging something that they don’t need to.

which is amazing, because where I work, everyone in the entire company who is on a plant or fabrication area has to wear a bump cap style hard hat. I mean, I’m glad because at many facilities stuff drips, falls, and there are low pipes to bump into, but it makes a person feel naked when walking into a facility…

“People on the left tend to act like because his solutions were shit, the problem must not exist.”

I mean, there’s a frightening chance he’s going to run again in 2024 or that one of his spawn will try to run in the future. Accusing people of “not letting go” can easily be trying to dissuade people from “remembering and reminding people of history.”

One - I love the shit out of this content.

I can’t even uninstall redundant programs without admin access. I have to submit a ticket, sit around on remote desktop, while someone confirms and deletes a program that IT installed the new version of but didn’t get rid of the old version.

Picturing anyone using any one of these questions to strike up a conversation is hilarious

Man I was twitching reading this until I saw that the online calculators addressed insulation, occupancy, room height, and humidity (climate). Whew

I’m not sure tesla is expecting there to be zero human input, but rather that their design goal for the auto-driving systems is for there to be zero need for human inputs, and I’m not sure that’s a bad take. I think the car should be designed to accept human inputs, and that reasonable people should expect to have to…

I agree with the idea that teslas aren’t ready to be called fully autonomous or have any input devices removed. I don’t agree with the rest of the article

I’m appreciative for a truck for even small stuff, like bags of dirt, dirty coolers, kayaks, wheelbarrows, bicycles, and so on. that stuff just gets dirty and is a PITA to put into an SUV that I’m trying to keep from destroying the carpet in

I guess I’m used to driving a full size truck for non-road-trip-travel, so the maverick seems like a relative dream to park, but I can see how it’d still be larger than necessary for some use cases. I guess you’re stuck with a crossover or SUV with a very robust rear interior - the idea of putting truck stuff into the…

How do you explain rich people with chauffeurs? They’re not exactly riding around in a honda civic

Musk is channeling his inner Loki right now:

to be fair, jnik defends its right to publish on most any kind of transportation, even if that kind of transportation is a box on wheels that delivers human packages. people who like the idea of being delivered places by a car they own could probably have fun debating what color their delivery car should be 

Totally reasonable point of view, and I think it’s ridiculous for tesla to remove input devices because all it does is reduce the market willing to buy their vehicles. That said... I’m just not going to buy a tesla, because there are other EVs that are better values for me for the cost and have the features I want.…

I totally agree that removing options for user input is dangerous for autopilot’s current iteration! I do agree that the naming is potentially problematic, but then again advertising is usually quite misleading. There are more than a few car accidents that happen while people use autopilot the way it’s supposed to be…
