Same thing has happened to me with Siri. It's absolutely garbage. For years, I've said "Hey Siri, turn on Bright" because I have a "Bright" Home scene configured. About 2 months ago, the HomePod updated and now

The Model S and X both have two screens -- one behind the steering wheel, and one in a portrait orientation to the right of the driver. The Model 3 and Y are the ones that have only a single screen to the right of the driver in a landscape

The app does talk directly to the car, when you're in range of Bluetooth. That's how the phone key functions, all handoff and communications are done via bluetooth, not the internet when the devices are in range. Even with my phon

Even with my phone in Airplane mode (WiFi / Cellular disabled), and only Bluetooth on, I'm still able to get into my Model 3. Internet connection is not required by the car, or the phone, to be able to unlock the car, drive, or op

Just because you don't know anyone that uses Snapchat doesn't make that an authoritative source on popularity of a company. Snap's user base has grown consistently and show's no signs of slowing down, even against increa

That's the thing, the rules aren't clearly defined, and aren't universally equally enforced and thinking that they are is naive. I've had numerous apps launch without question, then in a subsequent update have gotten rej

Could also be mentioning of "quarantine" directly. Might make sense to make your app description more generic to just being home, so that it will still be applicable after the COVID-19 pandemic has come to a conclusion.

We're almost entirely migrated into GCP now, roughly 95% done. Here's a CodeAsCraft article from when we started the project in 2018 about how we selected GCP vs AWS or Azure, and what the expected effort to migrate would be: htt

Tesla has partnered with Medtronic to increase their production capacity ( https://www.massdevice.com/tesla-to-reopen-new-york-facility... ). So Tesla isn't approaching this as a hackathon project, they've partnered

According to Hidden Figures (which to the best of my knowledge is quite accurate in representing Katherine Johnson), she actually hand checked most if not every calculation performed by the digital computers and often found miscalculations

Their head of AI talked about this during their AI Investor Day and he said that even when the road is entirely covered, there is still enough subtle clues for the neural net to pick up on that it will be possible to have a self-driving car

Can confirm: There is an overlay that appears which asks whether you consent to collection of video (only from the 7 outside cameras -- there is one facing the interior but it doesn't include that), and telemetry / GPS data for au

In the "FSD Preview" update that came out around Christmas time, the car now shows a bunch of symbols on the road, and signs (aka stop signs) that it recognizes. They don't flicker at all, even while you're driving and a

I agree. Usually Slack's support is wonderful. But with this awful WYSIWYG input debacle, their support has been... subpar. A whole lot of non-answers and dismissive "we're collecting user feedback".

Can confirm: I love my Model 3, wouldn't trade it for the world - including all the feature that "tech-experts" on HN love to complain about such as being locked into a touchscreen with a proprietary OS.

Agreed. iOS 13 fixed that for me when I installed the public betas at the start of summer.

You can just text them using iMessage... I've gotten my questions answered in less than 30 seconds through that.

Agreed. I'm happy that my Tesla doesn't have CarPlay. I don't need my messages showing up on screen or constantly being read to me, I use driving time to decompress after a day of being social with my coworkers.
