You can think it as a cross platform networking library.
From the post.
"Low-level networking improvements like HTTP/2, QUIC, QUIC to TCP failover, gRPC, DNS replacements, push/streaming, observability, analytics, state of the art TLS, retry and timeout policies, etc. take a tremendous amount of effort both to implement robustly as well as to make consistent across all of the Android and iOS versions in common use. Envoy Mobile will provide all of this functionality in a consistent cross-platform manner, especially when paired with Envoy running at the edge, similar to how server-side Envoy provides consistency to polyglot distributed application architectures."
I really wish everyone had a chance to use the autopilot feature and judge themselves. I use it every single day and trust the machine.
Issue is, with every complex system, there are few ins and outs that users need to know - like lane merge buffer lines, sharp lane merges by another vehicle in front of view, etc. Within your first few rides(below 10), users could pretty much guess when it works and when it might have issues.
On labeling the feature, it is marked clearly BETA and wiggle prompt is shown pretty much in all the confusing cases - so alert is never missed for me.
My only gripe is with all these incidents, Tesla is forced to update the feature to make it less user friendly or take out completely. I genuinely feel safe and come home every single day with less stress. Elon's tantrums are not helping the situation either.
There is a huge difference between Adaptive Cruise Control and regular Cruise Control. I agree completely with you on Cruise Control, however with adaptive, stress level is low there is no comparison. I use it pretty much every single day in my commute.
As a dad, my killer app on Google Home is playing youtube audio/video. Alexa can't match it. Then almost all the integrations I care are already available on Google Home - Smarthings and Nest.
I tried multiple times playing Alexa, it doesn't come close to Google Home's voice recognition capabilities.
Agree. More like some kind of a monotonic presentation rather an educational one. Books are great for reference though. If you had a choice, just buy all the books and skip one day session.
There were few questions about the experience. Though job description has quite a bit of experience mentioned, we are open in considering a good candidate with relevant skill set.
My biggest complaint is different rates for network egress. https://cloud.google.com/storage/pricing egress for world and then there is China and Australia. It is unpredictable and you can't include it in your price models.
Yup. Classic example of innovator's dilemma. These are the opportunities startups need to constantly find and solve.
Proof that simple ideas seem so simple on the surface yet become these big opportunities. What you do with the idea/initial success is what separates these successful companies.
