Same thing has happened to me with Siri. It's absolutely garbage.

For years, I've said "Hey Siri, turn on Bright" because I have a "Bright" Home scene configured. About 2 months ago, the HomePod updated and now responds consistently with "Pause in the bedroom?"

Nothing is playing in the Bedroom. Nothing CAN play in the bedroom, there's just lights in the Bedroom. No speakers. What the heck is it even _trying_ to pause.

It's infuriating.

About dang time. Hey Facebook, your turn.

The Model S and X both have two screens -- one behind the steering wheel, and one in a portrait orientation to the right of the driver. The Model 3 and Y are the ones that have only a single screen to the right of the driver in a landscape orientation.

The app does talk directly to the car, when you're in range of Bluetooth. That's how the phone key functions, all handoff and communications are done via bluetooth, not the internet when the devices are in range. Even with my phone in airplane mode (WiFi/Cellular disabled), and only Bluetooth on, I'm still able to unlock/lock the car, drive, and open the frunk/trunk.

Even with my phone in Airplane mode (WiFi / Cellular disabled), and only Bluetooth on, I'm still able to get into my Model 3. Internet connection is not required by the car, or the phone, to be able to unlock the car, drive, or operate the frunk / trunk.

Just because you don't know anyone that uses Snapchat doesn't make that an authoritative source on popularity of a company. Snap's user base has grown consistently and show's no signs of slowing down, even against increase competition in the space (https://www.statista.com/statistics/545967/snapchat-app-dau/). TikTok is the "Vine replacement" since Vine was bought by Twitter and shutdown. Vine wasn't a "fad" that faded away, it was actively shutdown by its parent company, likely would still exist to this day in a non-insignificant way had that not happen.

That's the thing, the rules aren't clearly defined, and aren't universally equally enforced and thinking that they are is naive. I've had numerous apps launch without question, then in a subsequent update have gotten rejected for stipulations in the App Store guidelines that I honestly don't remember reading, only to appeal and have the appeal succeed and my update be approved. It is, and always has been, up to the reviewer you get as soon as you get passed the automated binary checks.

Thank you!

Could someone copy / paste the text here for those of us who have blocked *.facebook.com domains in our /etc/hosts file?

Best way to figure out how complex things fail is to keep pushing them to their limit and observe

Could also be mentioning of "quarantine" directly. Might make sense to make your app description more generic to just being home, so that it will still be applicable after the COVID-19 pandemic has come to a conclusion.

We're almost entirely migrated into GCP now, roughly 95% done. Here's a CodeAsCraft article from when we started the project in 2018 about how we selected GCP vs AWS or Azure, and what the expected effort to migrate would be: https://codeascraft.com/2018/01/04/selecting-a-cloud-provide...

Tesla has partnered with Medtronic to increase their production capacity (https://www.massdevice.com/tesla-to-reopen-new-york-facility...). So Tesla isn't approaching this as a hackathon project, they've partnered with one of the biggest medical manufacturers who no doubt are offering their resources and expertise in this field, something Tesla obviously has none of which shows that they're trying to prove their serious about helping out

According to Hidden Figures (which to the best of my knowledge is quite accurate in representing Katherine Johnson), she actually hand checked most if not every calculation performed by the digital computers and often found miscalculations due to programming errors.

Their head of AI talked about this during their AI Investor Day and he said that even when the road is entirely covered, there is still enough subtle clues for the neural net to pick up on that it will be possible to have a self-driving car in the snow. Just like how humans are able to observe the edge of the road (enough) to slowly drive to their destination, the car will pick up and learn from those clues too eventually.

Can confirm: There is an overlay that appears which asks whether you consent to collection of video (only from the 7 outside cameras -- there is one facing the interior but it doesn't include that), and telemetry / GPS data for autopilot training and sentry mode training. If you don't agree, I'm assuming your car will not be used for the fleet learning since they can't gather any telemetry. I do believe that critical logging w/o user-data(?) (aka drive system failure, MCU crashes, etc) is still enabled independently && regardlessly of the data collection for AI toggle.

In the "FSD Preview" update that came out around Christmas time, the car now shows a bunch of symbols on the road, and signs (aka stop signs) that it recognizes. They don't flicker at all, even while you're driving and a large truck obscures the car's vision of the sign / stoplight. So they likely have started to enable some form of temporal memory into the system so that it remembers what it has observed in the environment both frame-to-frame and overall.

Karpathy (their Head of AI) showed how they are able to generate a 3D depth map of an environment given 2 forward-facing stereo cameras, it's possible that's what the car is attempting to do here since it recognizes that part of its vision will be blocked once it stops moving. Or it's trying to avoid the puddle lol.

You mean just basic bounding boxes around an object?

Where has Tesla ever said they needed to abandon all of their training data?

I wonder if they cut the presentation a little short because of the glass issue . Then again, Musk isn't exactly the greatest presenter so I don't think he could play off someone talking in his ear to cut it short.

I agree. Usually Slack's support is wonderful. But with this awful WYSIWYG input debacle, their support has been... subpar. A whole lot of non-answers and dismissive "we're collecting user feedback".

Those animations videos are so well done, very pleasing to the eye to watch

Can confirm: I love my Model 3, wouldn't trade it for the world - including all the feature that "tech-experts" on HN love to complain about such as being locked into a touchscreen with a proprietary OS.

Agreed. iOS 13 fixed that for me when I installed the public betas at the start of summer.

You can just text them using iMessage... I've gotten my questions answered in less than 30 seconds through that.

Agreed. I'm happy that my Tesla doesn't have CarPlay. I don't need my messages showing up on screen or constantly being read to me, I use driving time to decompress after a day of being social with my coworkers.
