I bought some cheap IP cameras to monitor our cabin while we're not there, and every single time we arrive I unplug them. This makes me feel vindicated that I'm not just paranoid; the creeps really are one buggy firmware away fro

As a Model X owner who rarely engages Autopilot for this exact reason, I concur. The number of times the car has suddenly started braking for no good reason (clear weather and good road conditions, few cars around) is way too high.

I'm curious to know how people feel about offline (pre-transformed) vs. on-demand transformations. Are there any HN'ers out there that have worked on a site with a large set of images, and have an opinion on this? Adobe's S

One more data point: On Windows, both IE 9 and Chrome 20 measure TTFB correctly via NavTiming, while Firefox does not.

One thing that's interesting is that the Navigation Timing API available in modern browsers varies from being wildly incorrect to accurate, depending on the browser. In a quick test on my Mac, Firefox 13 showed an incorrect result (basical

I'm a little surprised how slow the initial image loads are (the download is choppy; kind of reminded me of my old 56k connection :)). Obviously, once the cache is warmed it's much better, but it's not like they're huge files.

I can't tell if it's just the angle of the video, but it doesn't look like the airbags deployed. Maybe they were intentionally disabled, but yikes, seems like a car you should stay away from until they work the bugs out.
