It was fun to use while it was free, but not worth continuing. City driving was terrible and disconnected frequently. Highway driving is pretty nice, but not that much better than the adaptive cruise control that is free or the cruise control on my Subaru.
Hold on, is Subaru known for its lane keeping? I sort of used mine's performance as a benchmark for a low-effort system, contrasting it with Tesla's--a seemingly high-effort system--and finding the latter lacking.
Funny. In with the roar of multiple paragraphs spent explaining all the reasons this spot will be the next big one. And then out with a quick whimper that the scientists are not convicted.
I'll have to add it to the page, but it was also used as the introduction for The Compound by S.A. Bodeen[1]. It's an interesting young adult novel about a family living underground in a state of the art bomb shelter after a nuclear attack occurs.
Likely what they meant, but convicted could be correct here, in that the scientists may not have much conviction in their assessment, i.e. do not feel certain.
> CEO and COO said that didn't want to get involved and it was for me and CUXO to sort it out ourselves.
It seems like they're sending you a signal that the CUXO's argument has at least some merit. Last time they were aligned with you and this time they're telling you to sort it out yourself. Ask the CEO and COO is they have some feedback for you that they're holding back on.
I took CS 445 Algorithms at Arizona with Udi Manber as the professor in the late 90s. Tough class. The .com boom was picking up at that point and I think he went to Yahoo shortly after.
a/b testing obviously drives these kinds of site designs. The business leaders get what they want, but eventually these over-a/b tested products open themselves to disruption.
I also think its funny when people accuse these companies of being immoral, but I think a/b testing is creating these bizarre amoral companies. And once they get lost they seem really lost.
That could apply to a huge portion of all businesses on Twitter. How many of the F500 have benefitted from a gov't bailout or some other taxpayer subsidy. No one is really squeaky clean on this front.
This is an excellent point. If you review my comment history I think you’ll find some of my most downvoted comments being about how rolling out the biggest infringements upon civil liberties since WWII, and then creating a financing program that media companies rely upon to survive, was one of the most corrupt things I’d seen during my life time.
Hard to believe that they've owned Hotmail/Outlook.com for over 20 years and their spam filtering is still atrocious. Gmail is 100x better and so is O365.
