An exodus?

An exodus of free tier users whom Slack doesn’t want anyways, or an exodus of paying customers?

It was mandated in response to the Firestone scandal/disaster. Over 200 people died because Ford intentionally under-inflated Firestone tires on the Explorer. Also, the tires weren’t very good in the first place.

I guess it got everyone thinking about how dangerous under-inflated tires are on the highway. My guess (and it is a guess) is that radial-velocity pressure estimation wouldn’t have been precise enough and would have either tolerated dangerous under inflation or annoyed with false-positives.

TPMS sensors are much more precise than ABS/radial speed sensing.

Yeah that’s really frustrating. Different manufacturers have different offerings here. My Toyota has nothing more than the lame “low pressure” warning, but my wife’s company Chevrolet actually shows numeric values for all 4 tires.

Give us the data!!!

Just about any project you do in Unreal is a C++ project and Unreal is used all over the place - in games but also in industrial design and architecture for demos and visualization.

I started a project (https://github.com/tedmiddleton/mainframe) last year to make a dataframe in C++ because I was running into some performance limits in Pandas. I’m not sure how useful a C++ dataframe is - but I imagine it as being an alternative to going all the way to Hadoop and spark if you’ve outgrown pandas.
