It just occurred to me that this should be possible in a front wheel drive vehicle with the parking brake applied but for some reason the rear wheels still roll if you forget to release it. Not something I’ve ever tested on purpose though.
Maybe, but at least this one is not a shitshow of smug trolling comments, yet.
Yeah, how about someone would buy these loans, combine them into pools based on risk and sell on as a great investment tool suitable for every risk/profit profile?
>I think, if someone is holding down both the accelerator and brakes

...which is not something that happened in this case in any way, as far as we know.

According to Tesla, "due to the terrain the accelerator may or may not disengage when the brake is depressed".

Not "due to the driver holding down both pedals", but "due to the terrain".

(The driver clearly says that he was not holding down both pedals, too).
> The EU commission is a hair away from just telling Apple what they're allowed to charge which I don't love

I see your point.

But there are trade-offs. Apple is doing its best to be a monopoly, and so tell them what to charge or break them up.

Or simply allow the monopolist practices to do what they do and eventually one firm will own everything.
They're accomplished by having the more powerful front brakes hold the car while the less powerful rear brakes allow the rear wheels to spin. Sometimes water is used to reduce traction. Sometimes the brakes are modified so that the front axle can be controlled by a hand lever without applying the rear brakes.

In this case the Tesla was able to overpower its more powerful brakes and drag the car forward. That should never happen.

Drive by wire throttle is in the vast majority of cars made in the last twenty years because emissions and fuel efficiency require it.

One of the few times time there was a problem (Toyota), it was discovered that engineers were grossly incompetent with their ECU code.

This is basically a "solved problem" and we now have brake by wire and steer by wire. Mercedes has been doing both for what, ten years or more?
> It’s an early but telling sign of the broader distress brewing in the commercial real estate market, which is hurting from the twin punches of high interest rates, which make it harder to refinance loans, and low occupancy rates for office buildings — an outcome of the pandemic.

And that's what I think is behind much of the push for RTO. While a lot (if not most) office space is rented, corporate executives are the kind of people who could have a lot of money invested in commercial real estate. They see this large threat to their portfolios, so they're trying to keep their assets from depreciating.
It's typical for architect "manifestos". Makes them sound more serious and important than they are
It was always going to be a long, slow decline. Not sure why anyone is surprised by any of these news stories.
I'm no fancy automotive engineer but it seems like there's no reason the brake shouldn't directly break the circuit supplying power to the wheels.
It’s better to make it optional. I may have files I don’t want Microsoft sniffing through. It’s great to have a backup as an option. But to just upload “Documents”by complete surprise is pretty dirty. I’m sure it’s buried 20 pages deep in their EULA somewhere though.
Then, just take the example and imagine they declare bankruptcy. That loan is going to be worth 0 in the vast majority of cases.

Loans go to zero. It happens in real estate, it happens in oil and gas, it happens in other places I'm sure. It's not especially common, but it happens.

> Every store, market place and mall has conditions for being able to sell your wares in their space.

But it's not a store. It's software; Apple charges developers to use their developer tools and then additionally requires you to pay the surcharges in their mandatory App Store. It is a racket that specifically relies on Apple's sole presence as a distributor on iOS and iPadOS; otherwise it will fail, as MacOS has shown us.

And every single one of those companies competes under fair pretenses with their publishing partners. Apple doesn't. That's why they're singled-out.

More evidence about the failure of engineering standards at Tesla. It's actually very sad - they genuinely seemed to be doing great stuff before (regardless of manufacturing issues).

As an aside - it's hard enough being a bicyclist in the US with all these absurd-ly large trucks prowling the streets whose drivers can't see bicyclists either in front of their hoods or in their side mirrors. Now we have this moronic vehicle which adds in faulty controls and sharp pointy body panels that'll slice through you when you hit them.

On a psychological level, I fear there's something deeply wrong in the US as they lose their global hegemony. I respect the second-amendment and all that, but what civilized country markets a vehicle as being "civil war" ready and "bullet proof" ? Sheer insanity.
>belief is that (in the US) a journalist that passively receives classified information & publishes it isn't committing a crime due to the First Amendment. The actual crime itself was committed by the person leaking the information.

This is definitely interesting in the face of the news that Ukraine has been using very small FPV drones successfully on the front lines as opposed to more sophisticated systems like the Bayraktar drones.

The UK has huge swathes of empty commercial property.

The book value of the property is related to prospective rental income. It is - bizarrely - sometimes more profitable for owners and investors to maintain the fiction of high rental value without any income than to drop the rental value to something realistic and take a realised loss. Even if that's generating real income.

I would guess it's the same in the US.

This leans suspiciously towards subprime-all-over-again, where the nominal value and security of investments is being wildly overstated.

At some point it's going to have be unwound, which will create some interesting readjustments.

> Maybe it is to stop fanboys from harassing her when she trashes their favorite product or company,

I assumed the opposite: she knows that she has readers who will go trash on the developers of whatever random app she happens to be criticizing and doesn't want to be responsible for inciting an internet mob.

In this case she provided enough information that anyone who was seriously concerned about their feed reader could easily find out if it was theirs—searching for the quoted text turns up the guilty RSS reader, her post, and a rip-off of the guilty reader which re-uses their marketing blurb.

That's easy enough for someone who's motivated to find out if they're safe, but maybe not enough for a mob to form?
I disagree that this is equivalent to censorship, but it sure sounds like a really good incentive to make more convincing comments than “Then how do you explain this single counterexample? Checkmate, Rustaceans.”

Plenty of reasonable disagreement happens here without getting downvoted into obscurity. Substantive points are generally upvoted even when they’re controversial opinions. So I don’t feel too upset when borderline-trolling or bad-faith arguments get hidden by consensus.

Some bullet points from my career.

1] Get in shape, theres a reason why models exist and they can wear anything and make it look good

2] Wear clothes that fit/ get your clothes tailored

3] Clothes are costumes. if you want to fit in, wear what everyone else is wearing, if you want to stand out be bold

4] Be true to your self and your style will show through. Aesthetics emerge as a result of small choices that add up

> The vast majority of Gant’s 100-plus annual clients work in tech, and about 40% are men.

Funny that the article focuses on the men. I'll guess its not supposed to be surprising that women will spend large amounts of money on fashion consultants.

Honestly I've always thought that men had it easy. Suite or sports jacket or t shirt. There's dozens of stores out there that will take your measurements and order something non-offensive.

I've never been good with clothes and being a woman it tech makes it no easier.
I don't have a feel for what good professional clothing looks like for women. Not too feminine, not too masculine. Not too revealing, not too covered up. Not too colorful/not too dull. If I found myself scheduled to give a presentation at a tech conference I probably would hire a consultant.
Unfortunately anything Musk adjacent will result in people absolutely jumping on the hate bandwagon before there are details.

Let’s wait until we know more details of what happened. This could’ve been the trucks fault, or it could’ve been the driver falling asleep and blaming the truck. If this was poor design on Tesla’s fault, then yes we criticize them, however we criticize the company as a whole (including musk), not just their CEO.

I’m not sure why everyone is so entrenched and hyper fixated one way or another on one human being.

>Julian Assange actively solicited leaks of information.

Real estate infuriates me to the point that I find myself hoping it burns to the ground and that the whole industry suffers.

“Real estate always goes up” is treated like a damn entitlement to the point that the financial well being of everyone under 40 today has been sacrificed to it. In 2008 it felt like the entire real economy was put on the chopping block to bail it out.

I’d love for a real estate market that looks like Japan. That way the real economy built around people actually doing things could flourish free from endless real estate idle rent extraction.

>Did the driver have their foot hard down on the brake pedal?

Yes, this is how you get the skid marks 50 ft long.

You can also hear it in the video.

>Were they using both feet and applying brake and accelerator at the same time?

No. The vehicle accelerated on its own, and wasn't responding to the steering controls as well while the unintended acceleration.

Tesla's response was that "due to the terrain the accelerator may or may not disengage when the brake is depressed".

>These seem like obvious basic questions that this motoring journalist has failed to ask.

Because they have very obvious basic answers unless one is hell-bent on blaming the victim (who, by the way, has a driver license).

Indeed. Because Tesla has dissolved its PR department years ago, and won't answer to inquiries from the press.

The headline is about CEOs, but the people in the article are tech workers, not CEOs.

The headline also talks about a $500 an hour service, but the hourly consultation service was $300 with "plans" increase to $500. The $500 service they mentioned was for a consultation followed by a 3-hour shopping trip, so not an hourly charge.

Just doing my part to counteract the "tech workers are actually attractive" myth this article is peddling by revealing how unattractive pedantic dorks really are.

1. I can pin my json parser dependency and literally never update it again

2. And how many times have we seen 20 lines of C backfire with some sort of memory safety issue.

3. First off, i'd go out on a limb and say the number of attacks from a well-established (or even a naive one) rust json parsing library is dwarfed by the number of attacks from adhoc config parsers written in C with some overlooked memory safety issue.

4. Usually being the key word, tons of adhoc config formats have weird shit in them. With json (or yaml/toml) you know what you're getting into and you immediately know what you're able and unable to do.
