Don’t know about Cruise, but Waymo also, and they’ve been tested in snow and rain that Tesla doesn’t even engage. twitter.com/Waymo/status/1721629316625093035
To be fair, Tesla is probably doing testing in winter too. But again, Tesla doesn’t seem to be aiming at level 4, while Waymo is going level 5 all the way.
- Comment on Tesla scraps its plan for a $25,000 Model 2 EV 7 months ago:
Waymo and Cruise aim at no drivers. So “driver interference” is not even an option. And they’re already on the road in selected cities.
I believe FSD is making great progress yes. They’re probably better than the competition (from car manufacturers’ equivalent). But I don’t think they’re working at the same level as Waymo. Just not.

Overreacting and dramatization is what social media trained us to do, so I’ll go ahead and answer that question with… no, probably not. Or as social media taught me; I SLAM your comment DOWN!

Municipal broadband is not a small company though. It’s a cooperative owned by residents.
And in many states it’s actually illegal. Which makes no sense.

Nah, just allow communities to build their local infrastructure. Trust me. You don’t need to threaten the status quo, just allow the market to compete.
Every town where local fiber is available, Comcast and Spectrum suddenly have cheaper and more reliable service. It’s magical.

None of that is new, it’s just not profitable and so we (humankind) dropped it.

Just make sure you add DKIM and all that. Mail in a box will do it mostly for you but it should take care of the spam issues at least until someone reports your emails as spam. For a personal email that shouldn’t happen.

- Comment on Strings do too many things 9 months ago:
Sounds like your gripe is with people requiring accounts for reading public content, and not with preventing usage of automated email creation and trying to limit bots on your website.
- Comment on Strings do too many things 9 months ago:
We were discussing validation, not parsing. There’s no parsing in an email. You might give it a type once it passes validation, but an email is just a string with an
@in it (and likely some . because you want at least 1 TLD but even that I’m not sure). - Comment on Strings do too many things 9 months ago:
There are also cases where you want to have a disallow list of known bad email providers. That’s also part of the parsing and validating.

And again, which was the point of my original comment, Mastodon may not do great when you need to propagate the post to other platforms. Unless you know something I don’t, Mastodon is horrible for time sensitive information, since it can take hours to get to your instance.

They technically still have an SLA, but it’s unclear how much they respect it. And if X isn’t viable there are other platforms that are.
