FreeBSD replaces bubblesort with mergesort on SYSINTs, results in 100x speed

I don't think that I said that the Polestar 4's lack of rear windows is a slam-dunk sure-fire hit. Rather just that we can appreciate the attempt to side-step the issues with rear-window visibility with a very different design.

It is IMHO a bold move, which will attract fans and haters. Neither of us know for sure how it will play out; if the potential issues outweigh the rest. The implementation details clearly matter. In a couple of years we will see if it's a genius innovation, a terrible misstep or somewhere in-between. Until the vehicle ships and is on the road for some time in some volume, we won't know for sure.

While I agree I kind of think this should be nailed down before such a departure.

After all, on a high-end vehicle a back-camera that hasn't sorted this is just a gimmick.

Maybe they have, all my experiences indicate otherwise though I don't have much experience with new expensive cars.
