In the context of the web, it is not feasible to make distributed systems 'tick' their progress just to have realistic progress spinners.


The judges in these technical cases can be quite sophisticated and absolutely do learn terms of art. See Oracle v. Google (Java API case)


As I looked up the judge for this one(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Alsup) who was a hobbyist basic programmer, one would need a judge who coded MNIST as a passtime hobby if that is the case.


a smart judge who is minimally tech savvy could learn to train a model to predict MNIST in a day or two


The holds are not "extremely" taxing, I would say. The tremors can be induced through a simple 7 step sequence of holds like wall sits or calf raises. There are walkthroughs on YouTube.

On the TRE subreddit [0], people report being able to tremor at will once they have enough experience with the technique.

Not trying to be pedantic, just clarifying that it is very accessible! I've personally been experimenting with it and find it to be helpful.

Is being well-rated on TripAdvisor a positive or negative signal? I could see it either way.


You need like always to read some of the reviews and judge. If sceptical look at the users histories (e.g. I seen perfect 5 star reviews in Google then seen the users were bots even though the comments sounded ok)

Depends on the stakes too: anniversary dinner or grabbing a coffee in a different part of town?


Given lack of other signals, my experience is that TripAdvisor or Yelp is probably better than "they have a cool name." I've been living out of a hotel because of a kitchen fire and, as someone who really wasn't in the habit of eating out around where I live, the recommendations have generally been decent--combines with a neighbor and personal knowledge.


As other manufacturers come out with electric drivetrains, Tesla is really falling behind.

I own a Model Y and it’s really barebones and plasticky. For the similar price, the Ioniq 5 is much nicer.

Similarly, the Rivians blow Model X out of the water in terms of features.


The Ioniq 5 has much nicer interior but it can't drive you from point A to point B without intervention. So the Model Y could be a made out of Lego, have a seat with nails sticking out, force me to inflict pain on myself before putting it in drive and I would still own a Model Y. Even if Elon is crazy there is nothing else close to it on the market I'm sorry. Maybe Rivian.


> but it can't drive you from point A to point B without intervention.

My Model 3 with FSD constantly has problems going from A to B without intervention.

I'd miss FSD, but ultimately it's not that big of a benefit over other ADAS implementations. Lane keeping and auto cruise is like 90% of the benefit of FSD.


Lane keep plus adaptive cruise control is ok until you want more. Trust me I used open pilot for 4 years. Once you have auto lane change like GM Cruise or Tesla FSD you can't go back.

> My Model 3 with FSD constantly has problems going from A to B without interventio

I mean my daily drives say otherwise. Are you on HW3 or 4?


HW3 and I purchased the car with FSD in 2018.

Lane change on the interstate is fine, but for city/road nav it can be really bad. There's been more than a few occasions where telsa will try and put me in the wrong lane (even on long and well established road) which would ultimately force an unintended turn. If I'm not babying the system, the car will try and cut off whoever is behind me to follow the route.

Frankly, I don't trust it because of these sorts of problems.


I can't really comment on HW3. Ever since 12 it's been really great. 13 is even better. It drives me everywhere. Some people don't have the mental to let a car drive itself, they want it to drive exactly like they do, which isn't going to happen. It's really like sitting in passenger or backseat and if it isn't doing exactly what you want you tend to think it's messing up.

I had a lot of years with Comma AI before. There's no other consumer system on the planet that is close to FSD. lane assist's and adaptive cruise control are getting better with legacy manufacturers but they're still so far off.


> Some people don't have the mental to let a car drive itself, they want it to drive exactly like they do

Not the problem. Like I said, it's getting into the wrong lane and then cutting off people when it realizes it's not where it should be.

That's not a "It's not driving how I would" problem. That's a "It's creating a dangerous situation because of poor mapping data/bad route decisions" problem.

I typically drive with FSD on, but I'm quick to disengage because it's really not uncommon that the system will try and put me in an obviously bad situation.


Mmm... There's probably a Chinese EV company or two that would like a word. :)


I mean, funnily enough, the new waymos are Ioniq 5?


Your info might be outdated. Apple Maps is actually better than Google Maps in many ways (e.g. it says "pass this light and at the next one, turn left" instead of "in 300 feet, turn left")


If it’s a big corp, they probably have strict data exfiltration policies for corp email.

Maybe this one email would have been fine, but if it gets tripped, it’s not worth the headache.


These same corps have opinions on where users can be logged into Slack as well. And ffiw most enterprises that have this kind of device management don't allow login via magic links via email anyways.


Yes, accurate, I was able to access some slack workspaces but not the main one without putting the invasive management profile on my phone


Corporations (which are legal persons) also cannot autonomously do any of those things.

They only act through the stewardship of natural persons who serve in their interest.

You could do the same for a forest by electing some trustees or whatever.


There’s a cool CSS vignette effect on this webpage that I hadn’t seen before.


I don't see it


I used to work in a monorepo of that size.

All of the PRs I ever submitted touched a handful of files in my project’s subdirectory.
