Fifteen years is nearly 20 years. So, both is correct. I'm not sure what your point is other than splitting hairs.

I'd say it's reasonable to call 16 "nearly" 20 years. It certainly rounds off that way.

that people on house arrest cant get tested? or the deliveries? because one problem has been around for over two years...

I don't know about OPs situation, but house arrest often allows for basic movement (groceries, court cases, etc). The list is strictly defined and the law may not allow for covid tests.

Wild, I have been working on something almost exactly like this on and off for about a year. Well sort of, similar concept.

Basically, python notebooks with an "accelerator" library and strictly defined inputs and outputs - allowing you to run parallel jobs with parameters that do complicated backend operations normally not efficient in python, and then transform the result into a standardized format.

It's for a security-related-space set of use cases, but it doesn't have to be. So, I am very pleased to see something with a similar workflow that I can take notes on ;)

This is illegal in the US, which means it's rad as hell.

A friendly reminder, this is unconstitutional if you're a us citizen. However, they can still absolutely ruin your day.

On entry to any country, I sync my devices and wipe them.

Depending on country laws, refusing to reveal keys or even device-level encryption itself may be illegal/cause you to be detained.

The best thing you can do is bring a wiped device through, and assume that it and its data can be seized at any time. Also treat any device as disposable - once seized, it should not be trusted.

Apple believes that even when the computer is open, it should look good. Thin Steve loved joking that the back and insides of his computers looked better than the front of the competitors.

The pricing is pretty competitive compared to other devices with a similar resolution. These are low margin devices, with very high BOM.

The key difference is that apple cares what their computers look like when they're open. Dell doesn't. An ugly switch would ruin the line of the Mac's case and look out of place.

Now, you may disagree with that philosophy, but Apple is wildly successful for it. Personally, I don't like Macs anymore, but I do absolutely respect that attitude.

I googled it and came up with multiple answers. Instead of demanding people prove their work, take reasonable statements in good faith imo.

> But perhaps it's okay for this one distro to have an obsession with visual design?

The linux desktop is a house on fire, and elementaryos is standing in the living room holding up paint to a smoldering wall.

There's really no point. A few high sensitivity assets are lower resolution, but any state actor that wants very high resolution shots of military facilities already has it and on a quicker update cadence than google maps allows.

>I hope that this person understands his own argument in which case it's hard to believe that he is concerned about safety.

I think he understands his own argument. I don't think you don't understand the implications of why they haven't rolled it out.

> Eventually they'll figure it out

What are we up to now, 4 years and counting?

> this is not rocket science

Quality control is one of the biggest challenges of rocketry

I understand that tesla is trendy, and open about "not having everything figured out", but I get the impression that this is a lot of tesla drivers' first luxury car.

If BMW or Mercedes pulled the things Tesla does at the same cadence, their community would riot.

Yes. It's not everywhere, but it's very common in regions with snowfall.

>Tesla is fucked long-term. I suspect Musk's plan is to pivot to being an energy/charging company - that Tesla cars were just a vehicle to get him a worldwide charger network and accompanying infrastructure (it's the one thing that Tesla does just about flawlessly.)

This was always my take as well. He wants to make cars (they're a halo product), but the real value of tesla is in skateboards, batteries, charging. I suspect that things like the roadster/cybertruck are tesla preparing to transition to a business model where car sales are not the largest part of their business.

Panel gap matters because it is a clear indicator of manufacturing precision, and it also affects weather proofing. It is a very strong signal (but not the only one!)

Most people buy cars based on brands, and also a very substantial amount of car purchases are impulse purchases.

Anecdotally, I rented a jeep a few months ago (compass) and it was truly abysmal.

I notice that you said not that "my tesla is great" but that "they are great". Do you own one?

I will not purchase a car that has a panel gap I can fit my pinky in. I will not purchase a car that is at the bottom of reliability ratings. I will not purchase a car without radar sensors for the adaptive cruise control.

Regardless, I ended up buying a faf bmw and I'm loving it. So I did okay, anyways.

Sorry! To be clear, at the time I purchased my car, there weren't any that ticked off the boxes I was looking for.

Teslas were the only ones that did, that were also electric.

If I were to buy an electric car today, i would probably consider a polestar, taycan, audi, tesla. I would give them a fair shake! I'd probably end up with the taycan though, tbh. I would rather wait a year or two though, there's some really interesting things coming down the pipeline.

Much like tesla software, animal brains are finicky and considered in a state of constant development with no final release milestone in sight.

> Tesla’s official response to the clip is that the auto high beam system still is classified as beta software, meaning it’s not fully developed

Things like this (and panel gap, and build quality, and over promising features) are why I have yet to buy a tesla, and likely won't any time soon. Even though they were the only viable luxury electric car (during my last car search), I decided to pass. I will probably seriously re-evaluate them for my next car purchase, but right now, no thanks!

BTW, I got my first demo of tesla FSD a few weeks ago. In san francisco, on market street, a place I'm sure is tested extensively. Within minutes, FSD had the car perform an illegal AND dangerous mid intersection merge followed by an extremely hard and jerky lane follow correction. lol.

nm wrong m3

"blockchain based siem" is a completely useless phrase.

My understanding is that they will adopt but continue to support "legacy" extensions

I didn't mention wanting to use google. I do think it's unfortunate that android users don't have a privacy protecting item tracking solution. Airtags are a wonderful product.

I got rid of all of my tile devices a while ago due to privacy concerns. Airtags are a vast improvement, and it's sad that google hasn't shipped an equivalent.

> You of course know that the model is not capable of thought or reasoning

Do we know? It's the reverse Chinese room problem. :p
