Realistically, without running the numbers, only few industries come to mind that may come close. Chemical manufacturing, steel production and maybe glass production as well. For t…

I don‘t think someone disputes that this is in the realm of AI/ML. I just think its questionable if this kind of usecase is genuinely something were an LLM is necessary or outshine…

I know, this doesn't really address the core issue, but is stuff like balcony solar legal in Australia? Here in Germany, it is absolutely massive and an increasing number of people…

That is not an App Store functionality, that is a Safari functionality

Generic screening is where I draw a line where the risk of substantial damage is just too high to justify it. I am nowhere near an expert on this matter, but probably more informed…

I have had some fairly challenging trios and the travel assist did a very good job, even at autobahn construction sites (which we have plenty of). No clue how much vehicle generati…

I am in Germany, so even if I was in the market for a truck (which I am absolutely not), Rivian does not have vehicles here. Beyond the politics involving Tesla, I just do not like…

I've test driven pretty much all VW brands (that fall within my budget) and thus far, the Cupra Born has been my favorite. I have test driven the Kia EV4 and EV3, but I am not a hu…

Indeed it does, but Tesla is firm on my no buy list

I currently own a 10 year old Seat Leon with not a single out of maintenance repair (if we ignore the cosmetic repair due to a wildlife encounter). My parents have owned multiple V…

I mean, the app services department doesn't exactly have a track record of perfect compliance (privacy) either, so there is that.

Except for the fact that the car is sold as is with the features advertised (i.e. working with an Android app with no additional qualifiers as to which kind of android) AND that us…

It is amazing how Volkswagen keeps messing up. I am currently in the market for a new car, an EV specifically. Volkswagen brands were at the top of my list for many reasons, among …
