Sounds pretty hostile to consumers. A repair made that compromises the ability to safely charge does represent a huge risk. But what's their process for this? Do they publish this criteria? They say there's recourse for…
No, it was a clean title. Tesla decided it was "salvage" according to their own measures. I can imagine a scenario where a poorly done repair absolutely can make rapid charging a dangerous thing. But I would feel…
Municipal utilities exist everywhere. I'm not sure why you're being all hypothetical about it. They work well and for many reasons discussed here, sound like a good fit for Walnut Creek.
Yep, those exist across the western US too. I think many people are underestimating the scale and intensity of the winds California experienced. A single house on fire with relatively regular weather conditions isn't…
Comments like the last here irritate me. No, we all learn that wood is the only appropriate building material and the Salesforce tower in San Francisco required a whole forest of trees to construct. The root comment is…
I'm clearly in the minority, but the new app is leaps and bounds more usable and stable for me. The functionality gaps don't affect me - those features weren't things I used. And it's way, way more responsive and…
The first time I used a flare with their support agents, it truly felt like magic. It's such a clever way to perform data collection for a specific, imperative need without doing a dragnet of constant use telemetry (as…
This has been my experience as well. The only major instability was due to the Ubuntu snap based runtime, which I migrated away from a few years ago.
I half agree with you. We just went through an ECS to EKS migration, and we're still incredibly dependent on AWS. The hard part isn't the container orchestration system or even containerizing your workload - it's all…
Maybe, but maybe not? Even if the data showed it was a huge life saving factor, I can't see helmet usage being enthusiastically adopted.
It's complicated. The amount of industry knowledge needed is huge - not something someone with good software expertise can just leave on the fly. It's also been, traditionally, a crazy business with dozens and dozens of…
If by that you mean "average people pooling their billions to further advance science and technology", sure. None of this was done in a vacuum of billionaire self funding.
Dunno about that... My criteria was a bit different than the "on paper" stats: 1) Had normal instrumentation and control systems inside. No spaceship tech features. 2) Reliability and build quality cannot be…
Compliance car for sure.
If you want a screaming lease deal, check out the Subaru Solterra. It makes me genuinely upset I bought one instead of leased. Love the car, didn't mind the price, but wow these things are at a discount.
I have two gripes with how Java is today: 1) A lot of enterprise devs think all problems are best solved in Java, and refuse to acknowledge anything else (looking at the IBMers in the room) 2) Spring Boot takes what you…
NYC street sweeping is once or twice a week, for the most part. My (my much smaller, car dependent city) is annually.
Their devices continue to work when a scarce resource is no longer plentiful. The every day user doesn't need to care, but the people working on the stuff the every day user has need to care.
I think the market for the current lineup of EVs is tapping out. My wife and I own one that was very comparably equipped to a similar luxury crossover / SUV, and the type of driving we do in that car is perfectly within…
I fit this description and would love to have one. It's less cumbersome than a bicycle and I'd arrive to work much less sweaty.
Umm... significantly less than that? US telecom isn't a shining star of good value and fair pricing, but a median speed of 210 Mbps with a roughly $75/mo bill is a lot better than Saint Helena Island.
They're not getting mortgages. All cash purchases are extremely high right now (roughly 30% of all home sales in the US). They can fleece us for "modest" rent increases every year, conveniently just less than 8%, while…
Unless legislation changes, investors will just scoop up the sales and keep property values high. It's a pessimistic take but I don't see any deviation from this path (in Canada and the US).
I'm hoping the pendulum swings back toward the middle of things. A huge push for centralization and subsidization was to ensure domestic food security. Famine or blight in one region? Overproduce a bit in another and…
Yeah, nope. Which means I won't be seeing much of this new site until they decide to fix this. If Firefox strict mode blocks something, I generally accept that as a net good thing.
