Couple things to defend the Y. You can adjust the volume from the steering wheel, I do that all the time. And when it comes to the glovebox, it has very little storage, most storage is in the center console, so the glovebox is good to use to store important stuff that you rarely need so the extra security to now have an easy entry to it is fine.
And coming from a Toyota Avensis, the suspension in the Y is way way better.
Mine's reading temperature, humidity and pressure from sensors and uploading it to a VPS. My second one that is, my first one hasn't done more than collect dust.
Absolutely, ESPs are just microcontrollers. A Pi is a fully functional System-On-Chip. That being said the VPN is the only usecase you mention where you couldn't use a flavor of ESP.
Funny thing is that modern 3G/4G/5G modems are full System-On-Chip computers themselves supporting virtualization. The Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8916 is a popular SoC used for LTE dongles that runs the modem Baseband Real-time OS and Debian/Android OS on the same CPU.
Damn so many negative comments here. I think it looks decent, and will probably try it out, paying $10/user/month for something as simple as an issue tracker is annoying. I get that bigger organizations have more feature requirements, but for many companies, we just need a simple issue tracker that's not jira (very biased against jira from my experience, but it's probably gotten better)
And the Model Y is cheaper than the Toyota Rav4 which is in the same category. So cheaper purchase price, and no annual oil changes, cheap miles (at least over in Finland where gas is 2e/liter, 8.14usd/gallon and electricity is around 10euro cents/kwh).
Seem very country dependent. I just checked and a rav4 with awd and lane assist (to try to match it to the LR AWD model y) cost ~3k more over here (58k vs 55k euros)
These are Finland prices. I just checked now the cheapest new awd rav4, and it's 55k (to compare to the LR AWD Moldel Y). But then it you want lane assist, you need another trim level and it'll go up to closer 59k. The model y is 55k.
Have you tried co-pilot? I don't want to code without it. Saves so much time and produces good results, instead of searching for answers online, which isn't easy as you get into ad filled sites, find shitty Stack Overflow answers and webpages with outdated docs and examples.
Two examples from this week. Formatting dates in javascript, I had a datetime string and I wanted to show it as YY-MM-DD HH:MM for our internal tool. I don't know by heart exactly what to in this case although it's far from rocket science, so now I could write a comment what I wanted done and copilot coded it for me.
Same when I wanted a request to become a file download for the user, not something I've done many times before, and I could kinda reason that it probably needs the header to be set to something. And googling for this didn't give good results, yo need the right language, framework etc. With copilot I just wrote the comment // return file as download, and co-pilot wrote the code to set the header and send the bytes. Amazing!
I wanted to try co-pilot, but noped out when I saw it required a subscription. I thought it was in some kind of beta and would still be free. Is there a way to try it without signing up for a subscription?
My general worry is about becoming personally dependent on a paid tool just to do basic programming work.
Your worry is going to become obsolete pronto, just like you are not worried about depending on a paid CPU to perform basic computations. The meaning of "basic programming work" will be redefined by these tools.
The entry barrier of the subscription is a shame, that's for sure. But before open models are avilable, the field is proprietary today: we are going to witness a battle of AIs that will be as bloody as the Unix Wars of lore.
I still want to know if MS lets, say, Windows or MS Office developers use it. If not, they must consider it too risky from a copyright standpoint, which means so do I.
Hey guys! This weekend I wanted to experiment if I could create a webpage that looks like it's for an actual game, but it's all be faked with MidJourney & ChatGPT. I think the end result turned out quite well!
I had ChatGPT come up with the name, some unique selling points and have it fill in all text (with human editing, removing unnecessary text, to make it all fit well). All images are made with MidJourney. However, the logo is done manually in Photoshop, couldn't get any decent results from MidJourney.
This took around 5 hours to make, most time spent on laying out the website to look decent on desktop and mobile.
Cool stuff. This will open up completely new ways for small / even one-man companies to build stuff with convincing graphics at least for MVPs. I imagine some lone coder with skills in gameplay mechanics, but none in graphics or a very small budget to spend on it, will get a lot of value from something like this.
What GUI are you referring to? Midjourney did all images on the page, ChatGPT did all the text (except stuff like the copyright label I addeed to make it look more 'real'). But I did the webpage, that's manual vue & tailwindcss work on my part.
There can't be any objective discussions about Elon any more =) John Carmack finds Elon to be smart and really knowledgeable (listen to the latest podcast from Lex Fridman). And you would think HN trusts the words from Carmack? But most think Carmack, who knows Elon personally is wrong, and their opinion based on some random internet articles, is right.
Elon is super smart. He’s also a snake oil salesman.
These are not contradictory statements.
Unfortunately he chose his intelligence to enrich himself by fooling others. He could have chosen other options. It looked like that was the direction he was going in. By trying to help people. But it’s clear at some point he realized he can make far more money claiming to do something than by actually doing something and decided to focus on that.
> Unfortunately he chose his intelligence to enrich himself by fooling others.
You make it sound like he's selling ads online or something, not building rockets and electric cars, self-driving software and now robots? Like, if you wanted to make as much money as possible and "fool" people as you say, doing a rocket company and a new car company at the same time, pouring all the $100m you earned from selling your previous company, being months from bankruptcy in both ventures seem like a very roundabout and stressful way of becoming a billionaire.
I don't understand where you people get your world view from, are you exclusively reading click-bait news headlines and coming to the conclusion that Elon=Bad? How about reading some actual accounts of the early days at SpaceX for example? I can recommend "Liftoff", it's very balanced, focuses mostly on the employees of SpaceX and doesn't try to paint Elon as some kind of heroic figure, but gives credit where it's due. He comes off as a highly technical, maniacal, single-minded founder, inspiring but working his staff to the bones, and sure, also has some darker sides to his personality. It's the kind of personality that's required to pull these things off.
I look at that and I want a self driving car by Tesla. Did you see the rest of the presentation about their self-driving tech?
This was amazing by this with the short time it's been in development, and the vision for this project is beyond anything that has been done with humanoid robots. Sure they might fail, but it's an exciting venture to follow.
> Have they driven from LA to NYC as Elon promises they would by 2019?
Why do people only ever compare Tesla efforts to Elon expecations.
How many other companies have cars driving around in pretty much every environment on north America? Their competitors have a totally different approach and limit themselves to a few fixed locations that they map out in extreme detail first.
If you take all self driving cars in the world and put them at random locations in the US and tell them to drive somewhere I don't think any company will do better much better then Tesla.
I'm not really a fan of self driving but just clowning Tesla for not reaching the goals set by Elon isn't really interesting or insightful.
> Is hyper loop even a thing or just something Elon admitted was something he came up with to try and kill public transport alternatives?
Hyper loop was never a product. Musk even explicitly stated that it wouldn't be a product anytime soon. He explicitly state they did some evaluation on it and would release an engineering blue paper. This was literally stated outright at the time.
I really don't get the logic 'I wont do X but I find X interesting' and the response a few years later is 'Fuck you, you promised to do X and it didn't happen'. Like that makes people sound insane.
And he never said it was to kill public transport. That was a single news article where a journalist took Musk words out of context to spin his own story.
And people who think California High Speed Rail is failing because of Musk is fucking delusional anyway.
> The Boston Dynamics Robot is far more of a commercial reality than the CyberTruck if you really want to put things in context.
That is totally absurd comparison that makes no sense and illustrates nothing.
Yeah for sure, the autopilot claims and did not come to fruition, for sure, lots of misses when Elon thinks something happens and when it actually will. I don't think personally he's intentionally deceiving the masses.
Not really sure about the hyperloop / train thingy, need to read up more on it.
And BD's robot is not a commercial reality, how many have sold (if we're talking about Atlas and not the dog)? The Cybertruck will start production next year, sure it's behind initial time-schedule but it will be produced and sold in high numbers.
It's pretty hard to get excited for self driving from Tesla. So many of Musk's claims (i.e almost all of them) have turned out to be complete bullshit. They're seemingly still years away from full autonomy, despite him constantly trying to make people think its coming any day now.
What the hell are you talking about? You can't compare any EU country to Russia. Putin is an evil dictator who's opposition gets murdered or thrown in jail. And what's with the neo-nazi talk, don't think many of us EU citizens encounter neo nazies in our daily lives. But Russia has gone full nazi now invading other countries, raping and murdering civilians while wearing their new Z symbol.
And coming from a Toyota Avensis, the suspension in the Y is way way better.
