It really is useful.. If you add your favorite places... it will give you pretty good suggestions using the ai wrapper when you travel and it is good at giving joint recommendations for you and your friends.
I recently wrote a langauge app... my approach has been..
1. start with ear training. (minimal pairs)
2. learn some vocab (anki)
3. then use social media. tik tok specifically.
I have tried to get this to work. The problem has to do with the material UI Select component used. I think the problem is that the return key is already used to select an item from the select.
I agree... the speculation is becoming less on the market and more on whether these companies can execute. Everyione knows it's in their long term interest to make EVs.
In the near term (1-3 years), no role in a traditional oems has incentives to make evs.
dealers make money from maintenance. evs have less maintence.
car salesmen are trained to negotiate, not educate consumers about evs.
factory workers/unions: evs require less factory workers.
many engineers have the wrong skills for evs.
executives also have the wrong skills. they are trained to negotiate with suppliers and focus on core competency. core competency changes from manufacturing engines to battery and electric drive train. innovation may require insourcing if suppliers fail.
investors want dividends and not to speculate on evs.
imho, it makes more sense for startups and tech companies to make evs.
That is awesome. I have wanted to do this for an electric mower. And maybe eventually train it to drive itself with ML. You could even start a service to cut yards and use the public records of the lots to set a boundaries for the yard.
It's not false advertising. I think there is a misconception among the public about what autopilot means. Autopilot is assistance, not replacement for human operators.
"An autopilot is a system used to control the path of an aircraft, marine craft or spacecraft without requiring constant manual control by a human operator. Autopilots do not replace human operators. Instead, the autopilot assists the operator's control of the vehicle, allowing the operator to focus on broader aspects of operations (for example, monitoring the trajectory, weather and on-board systems)."
Regarding the cold war and military spending... Everyone in the 80s thought Reagan was nuts because he wanted to build "Star Wars" a system that would shoot down all the Soviet Nukes. So the Soviets wasted money trying to compete with it. So at least in some cases, it wasn't about us spending more on the military... it was about tricking them into spending more.
