Anecdotal, but for what it's worth, only two of my Apple charging cables have broken since 2007. I always hear about people having issues with them, so maybe I've been lucky with all of mine, or maybe I just don't treat them like I expect them to be indestructible.

Yepp, I generally will try for the exit row or the first row in a section (sacrificing no under seat storage), but they tend to be the first seats booked. Since I'm usually traveling with multiple other people and we prefer sitting together, it makes it pretty difficult to reliably select those seats with extra leg room. I haven't seen any airlines that charge "+$25 for the extra leg room" on 12+ hour international flights, but if they exist I'd love to know which ones they are!

Anecdotal, but I'm 193cm, take a few 12+ hour flights per year, and have no problem not reclining. For what it's worth, I feel like I've experienced people on my shorter, domestic flights reclining their seats more often than on my longer, international flights.

I'm 6'4" with a lot of my height in my legs. Sitting comfortably (not slouching, mind you), my knees already barely rub against the seat in front of me. As soon as that seat is reclined, my knees get crushed and I have to either sit up even straighter or twist to the side, neither of which are comfortable. Or, I have to pay to be in a higher fare class with more space.

Apple Maps has had "Look Around" (their implementation of Street View) for a while now.

I have over 2,000 places saved in Guides in the Apple Maps app. Not sure what that 300 place limit is referring to, but I haven't had any issues.

Hello! I'm Lewis Godowski, a creatively-driven lead engineer with over a decade of experience across the Apple ecosystem. Passionate about the little details of good design and a strong advocate for the human-centered design process.
Most recently, I was brought onto a new strategic business unit build to turnaround, manage, and lead an underperforming team of ~10 iOS engineers at a top 3 global motorcycle manufacturer. I had two main responsibilities I needed to balance: doing some heavy lifting as an individual contributor, and more importantly people management (upwards with product stakeholders, laterally with other pods and work streams, and downwards with my team). I identified and reduced inefficiencies in our scrum sprint cycle rituals, and established a standard architecture, code style guide, and best practices document for the client's codebase, resulting in a 28% increase in velocity and allowing us to deliver on schedule for an in-person launch event with 150+ dealerships.
Unfortunately, my current role has been transforming more and more into a business/digital consultant, which means a lot of my time is spent working on slide decks and high-level architectures that never see the light of day. It's bumming me out and taking me away from what I really enjoy: writing code, learning new skills, and wearing multiple hats to solve problems.
Ideally, I'm looking for an iOS (or Vapor, a server-side Swift framework) role as either manager or IC that lets me really flex my Swift and iOS expertise.

Hello! I'm Lewis Godowski, a software engineer with ~10 years of experience across iOS and backend. I find joy in dogs, desserts, and the small details of good design. I am a strong advocate for end users and their experience with a product.
Most recently, I was brought onto a new strategic business unit build to turnaround, manage, and lead an underperforming team of ~10 iOS engineers at a top 10 global motorcycle manufacturer. I had two main responsibilities I needed to balance: people management (upwards with product stakeholders, laterally with other pods and work streams, and downwards with my team) and doing some heavy lifting as an individual contributor. I created structure and improved hygiene in the team, codebase, and sprint/scrum life cycle, which stabilized our velocity and allowed us to find our rhythm and deliver on schedule.

Anecdata, but a few weeks ago I drove from LA to SF in my 2018 Model 3 (long range, single motor). It has a 75 kWh battery pack, my drive was 417 miles, and I drove 70 mph for probably 90-95% of the trip. I used a total of 95 kWh, which equates to ~329 miles on a full charge (100-0%). My efficiency was 226 Wh/mi.
There are absolutely other times when I'll get substantially less range, but it's understandably when I'm driving faster of more aggressive, or it's colder outside, or it's primarily uphill, or there's a strong headwind, etc.
There are a lot of different factors that can affect a car's range (regardless if it's an EV or ICE), and it seems like Tesla has decided to show the EPA range on the dashboard because there's no way they could magically know where you're driving if it's not entered in the navigation system. Once you start navigation however, it's able to factor in all these externalities and give a very accurate estimate. On the first leg of the above trip, I arrived to charge within 3% of Tesla's estimate.

> in every EV range comparison I’ve ever seen, teslas are the ones that can’t meet their claimed range by a fair margin. Other brands are almost always close to accurate or in some cases do noticeably better than claimed.
What's your source? Cause I don't think that's true... [1][2]

Is remote in other GMT+9 timezones ok?

For me, it's hard to find anyone else that matches Tesla on price, range, and performance. It seems like with the other EVs you get to pick two of those.

> Probably rarely a wise choice
I think you'd be surprised! There are some big names using it at scale[1].

Sounds like a great use for SharePlay! (:
