Looks like their map library uses local storage to persist the API key (or something innocuous) as a form of caching.
This is on you for not letting apps cache data.
Some hot shot user with an absurd amount of badges told me, in a condescending tone, that my solution did not answer the question and linked me to some TOS article or something about staying on topic. This was the first time I had ever answered a question on SO.
My takeaway from the situation is that SO is full of accounts that farm badges/rep. To what end, I do not know - perhaps they reference it on their resume or portfolios.
I called the guy out, seems he has since deleted the comment.
"not because they necessarily outweigh the potential benefits" is quite literally them stating that their choice to focus on safety challenges is NOT because it's best for their business. "we wish to motivate further work in safety ..." is complimenting that sentiment that this isn't about what's best for their bottom line, but rather spearheading the initiative to ensure the technology is not malicious because it's the right thing to do.
They're simply being honest that this isn't about profits or success. Wouldn't you prefer a business to decide what's best for the future of a technology not based on corporate interests?
What you wrote sounds like marketing and PR bull TBH. It's fine, but this is a 60 page documentation paper on the literal implementation of a technology...this isn't about making fluffy feel-good virtue signaling statements.
I would use Twitter daily if I had an option to control an "identity strength threshold" where I would then only see comments from people who have implemented their organization memberships into an online identity.
Of course this is wildly conceptual and would be an impossible feat to implement, but it's a fun thought exercise.
I also wonder how they come up with the multi-billion dollar values? How does that massive amount of money actually help repair whatever "economical damage" that was inflicted by not having some sort of app pre-installed on a device?
I met with manager to, what I thought was, to discuss the project and I brought up that tokenized PANs were our opportunity to transition off the mainframe and that we missed the boat. It fell of deaf ears because our meeting was actually to discuss how I was being reprimanded for using an SSH connection which the company couldn't perform a MITM attack on. It was at that point I knew I could not advance my career there.
AutoPilot is a human assisted utility. I think many people here, and in general, expect too much of it and are being too critical when there is an incident.
I do think Tesla needs to communicate better what AutoPilot is and isn't because we've now lost lives due to operator negligence, and by negligence, I mean the operator is still responsible for the vehicle despite relinquishing control to a computer.
Vehicle notifies the driver it's having difficulty operating the driver elected auto pilot mode based on the conditions. Driver elects to continue using the failing operating mode despite being warned.
I fail to understand how "It isn't" relevant that the driver chose not to take manual control when warned that conditions were not ideal.
When you provision a credit or debit card to an iPhone, it hits thousands of lines of COBOL for my bank. I wrote the application that delegates requests that come in on the payment network from Apple. Our issue isn't finding developers to maintain it, but if the application sits stagnant for decades, then the problem exists that we don't have product expertise to do the work.
