joenathanone··on Tesla removes parking sensors, the results are predictably terrible
>They can even “look”under the car in front of you and get a return for the next car in front of them, to better predict braking needs.

I miss that feature the most, even though my Tesla has radar it has been disabled via software. With that feature I would know if the person immediately in front of me was going slow, and I could/should overtake or if there were a line of cars in front. I used that feature daily, made me feel a bit superhuman.

joenathanone··on Tesla removes parking sensors, the results are predictably terrible
I appreciate Telsa's ambition to push technology forward but they shouldn't experiment with customers in real time like this. You want to replace parking sensors with vision, go right ahead, prove it in the lab first, don't remove the parking sensors and just assume that the engineers will figure it out.
joenathanone··on Analysis of Twitter algorithm reveals Twitter down-ranks tweets about Ukraine
Instead of being a bastion of free speech it really seems like what goes at Twitter is all up to what is most pleasing to Elon at any given moment, hypocrisy at its finest. The implication of decisions like this could be lives lost and oppressive regimes defacto boosted.

>Which of those technologies were based on billions of copyright violations?

All of them, no one is reinventing the wheel every time something new is made, every invention is based on the inventions that proceeded it, it's how human society advances and learns.

joenathanone··on Microsoft is now injecting full-size ads on Chrome website
No, Chrome was amazing when it was released, at the time Firefox was slow with an aging architecture and MS was still pushing Internet Explorer.

I would imagine the antitrust judgement would have given them pause in implementing something like this but here we are...

Microsoft has been on a roll with .NET releases, it's been a 30 minute or so upgrade process for us to go from 5 -> 6 -> 7. Looking forward to the new Blazor model!

What's wrong with using IIS?
joenathanone··on Web Push for Web Apps on iOS and iPadOS
Is isn't noticeable at all if the app is built correctly. My app is used by health care professionals to log their hours and patient charting. Everything is instant when clicked and the app also has limited offline functionality. It's snappier than most mainstream native apps. Everything is native HTML 5 & CSS with very minimal javascript to handle logic and validate inputs.
joenathanone··on Web Push for Web Apps on iOS and iPadOS
I build a PWA currently in use by around 130 people, no one can tell its not native.

If you have a large channel sure, but they cut off smaller creators a while back with their new monetization requirements.

It's just made-up or out of date data, the feature has been removed, not just hidden.

joenathanone··on Google and Mozilla are working on iOS browsers that aren't based on WebKit
I fond it to be pretty buggy, often the address bar will disappear and not come back when scrolling. Also they really need to add pull to refresh.
joenathanone··on Update on Samsung SSD Reliability
True, in my perfect world I would settle for a trade in program, you would get some value for the failed unit so that you can upgrade and the OEM could recycle the raw materials. If we will ever live in a sustainable society we are going to need repairability and recycling programs for all consumer products.
joenathanone··on Update on Samsung SSD Reliability
Growing up poor, I was always a few generations behind, rocking a 486 DX2 when the PII & PIII where the latest and greatest. 33kbps modem when others had 56k. When I was 10ish Me and my older brother would go to the thrift store and dig through the computer parts, it was an adventure.
joenathanone··on Update on Samsung SSD Reliability
Lifetime warranties used to be commonplace, I wish we could return to those times, or at least to a time of repairability.
