Reading it, the latch doesn’t deform, the latch sensor deforms. It doesn’t allow the closed hood to open, it fails to alert the driver that the hood wasn’t closed.

But if the sensor is broken, idk how an OTA can detect that the hood is open.

The problem is a sensor that detects if the latch is closed. How did an OTA fix this?
It hard to tell how big of a concern this was

I did and it doesn’t really give complete answers.

The latch is fine, but the sensor to detect when the driver didn’t close the hood can break. I dont understand how an OTA can fix that, and idk how common the problem was, so I can’t tell how sensational the headline is

Is this a real recall or an OTA update?

I hate Tesla, but a lot of news outlets are like

TESLA RECALLS BAJILLION CARS And what they really mean is they released an OTA update to fix some extremely rare race condition.

The issue is still bad, but I feel like the news outlets are sensationalizing to the point of dishonesty sometimes.

To be clear I’m not sure I understand the actual underlying issue here, so idk how deserved the headline is, but whenever I see them, I’m immediately skeptical

But isn’t that because the ads aren’t part of the video? If players can tell when it’s an advert, presumably ad blockers could too.

(Although presumably they have to tell the player to disable video scrubbing)

It’s just gonna make premium more expensive because they have to recoup their engineering costs somehow and I don’t think that the extra ad views from bypassing as blockers will cover it.

Won’t this totally break deep linking to time codes?

IMO I think that’s more a reflection of business decisions rather than innate programmer skill.

Programmers used to do that because they had to do that, so the businesses valued it. Now they don’t have to do that, so businesses don’t allow them room to develop those skills.

I think that rate that people actually developed unnecessary skills outside of work likely remains the same, just the skills that people desire are different to the ones from back then.

I’ve not been a dev for that long, but I’ve been a dev for 15y or so. For the most part it seems to me like that is an effect of business decisions; workers will learn the skills that get recognized. Which skills those are has changed over time.

I don’t see older devs have that quality particularly more then younger devs, what I see is businesses that don’t value that type of behavior. And having worked with “wild West cowboy” coders before, the businesses may be right; they often make a real mess things and just rely on other people to clean up after them.

From what I’ve seen, there are lots of young people who invest in themselves and have passion for the craft, when the business allows them room to grow and doesn’t treat them like a code-producing machine.

That’s true, but that’s also just the general populous, who weren’t ever contributing to open source anyways.
I don’t think the quality of coders (professional or hobby) has really declined that much.

Young people today are struggling to make ends meet - they don’t have enough comfort and free time to be able to donate their labor.

Yeah, I know I shouldn’t expect much from a site like that, but since it’s shared here I felt like I should shine a little light on the deeper issues.

This kind of superficial “journalism” rage-baiting boomers for clicks is really frustrating to me. Shit like this is brain-rot at least as bad as Tiktok is. It has always existed, but the extent to which it has replaced actual analysis and investigation is depressing.

Yes, the parents are partially at fault, of course. But as you indicated, there are significant societal pressures that force families into dynamics like this and it’s not realistic to expect an overwhelming majority to be able to resist it, alone. And since we’re not about to engage in class-based eugenics, it’s up to society to give them a serviceable ladder to climb out of their situation.

So, TLDR; I wanted to shine a light on deeper issues, so that people don’t think that this is solely a moral failing of parents, and that they DO understand that we have a collective responsibility to help families.

Found the illiterate bootlicker ☝️

I mean, that’s kind of my point - in situations like that, it seems like using Tiktok is small potatoes compared to the more significant issues that’d cause problem behavior. The Tiktok consumption is just another symptom, and if it wasn’t tiktok it’d be some other escape mechanism.

To me, the article seems lazy, complaining about a superficial problem without spending effort to even consider or mention underlying root causes that could give rise to it and must be solved first.

And to be clear I’m not blaming the parents, they’re not the “root cause” I’m talking about. They’re victims too, in large part. They and their kids are stuck in a harmful cycle, and people with the ability to break that cycle are unwilling to do so.

What does “on tiktok” mean?

Unsupervised with their own accounts? I feel like that’s difficult to believe. Watching a few tiktoks before dinner with their parents? That doesn’t really strike me as a problem.

While I don’t entirely disagree with the author, I feel like this is a far too superficial look at what is a larger societal problem: young people have checked out.

He makes the argument that mental health is in decline, and I’m not sure if that’s true or we’ve just removed the stigma from therapy… But of more concern to me is that young people just DGAF, and I think that’s because older generations have left nothing for younger generations to inherit, besides ruin. Kids 5-7 aren’t gonna understand that, but they’re gonna pick up the vibes from their parents.

It was the other company CEO with dubious ties.

Wait… Who is “it” in “it’s CEO”??? Which CEO has ties?

I guess I’ll have to actually read the article.

Oh this is neat. I wonder if the license will accommodate my work (and my work is willing to allow a nonstandard diff)

We both have issues. But as I said, at least I have a modicum of self-awareness.

I don’t expect you to go back and check, but I think you know that’s not how the hostility started.

Anyways, I’ll lay off now unless you ask a question or say something wildly out of line, but I’d like to part with this: your take here doesn’t seem to align with other things you’ve said in your (public) comment history on your (public) profile. We’re all forced to play the capitalist game, but you’re not going to be rewarded for this kind of devotion to your boss.

Sorry for catching you in your hypocrisy? 🤷

How do you reconcile what you’re saying here with your anti-billionaire stance on your other comments? Sometimes someone needs to hold up a mirror.
