Thanks. Damn autocorrect.

Back in the 80s, Don Norman popularized the term affordance. Humans need something to push, pull, turn or otherwise interact with. We are physical beings in a physical world.

Driving vehicles is potentially life-endangering. Just because the technology is there and cheaper does not mean that humans can push aside their physiological limitations in a critical situation.

Take the emergency blinker. You know where it is, you see it all the time - it's right there in front of you! But when a real emergency happens, you'll be fumbling for the button, concentrating on the situation at hand. Now imagine that button on a touchscreen.

Just recently saw a video of an experimental self driving vehicle from Bosch - from the 90's!

You could imagine we'd be much further now, considering how far computing power, computer vision and AI have come.

I'm out of the loop since I've been using a self hosted Miniflux, but Raven certainly is an alternative.

I had to check Wikipedia to be sure. OK, the S got updated motors or restyled taillights, but they're all externally indistinguishable for the non Tesla nerd. Look at how the Corvette and Mustang changed over the years, or the F-Series trucks. They went with the zeitgeist, and the S is still visually stuck in 2012.

What I don't get about Tesla is: when will they ever update their existing vehicles, like every other car company does? The Model S has been around for over ten years. Aren't they planning an S2? Or this all the RnD they have?

The Internet Archive is being DDOSed for the lulz.

I'm worried that the boat is full of water.

Pihole is good for a private network, but you can forget it in a work setting, especially corporate networks.

Keep in mind that that was a demo to sell Copilot.

The issue that I've got with GenAI is that it has no expert knowledge in your field, knows nothing of your organization, your processes, your products or your problems. It might miss something important and it's your responsibility to review the output. It also makes stuff up instead of admitting not knowing, gives you different answers for the same prompt, and forgets everything when you exhaust the context window.

So if I've got emails full of fluff it might work, but if you've got requirements from your client or some regulation you need to implement you'll have to review the output. And then what's the point?

Always happy to see gemini-related posts!

Because they don't give a shit what their people think. Yes, they are still building new coal and nuclear power plants, but it's being outpaced by renewables.
