Comments in this thread represent what’s wrong with the industry.
The article references sexual harassment, the commenters care about market share.
Did you know it’s important to hold people accountable more, the more power they have?
It’s one thing if you disagree, but making it about “winners” and “losers” and not about victims is how we ended up creating toxic workplaces.

Is it necessary to replicate the insensitive language here? I suppose the point could have come across without adopting the WSB usage in the same way.

Also, unlike Elon tweets (from https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/blob/devel/README.md#su...):
> openpilot ALC and openpilot LDW do not automatically drive the vehicle or reduce the amount of attention that must be paid to operate your vehicle. The driver must always keep control of the steering wheel and be ready to correct the openpilot ALC action at all times.
While changing lanes, openpilot is not capable of looking next to you or checking your blind spot. Only nudge the wheel to initiate a lane change after you have confirmed it's safe to do so.
Many factors can impact the performance of openpilot ALC and openpilot LDW, causing them to be unable to function as intended. These include, but are not limited to:
Poor visibility (heavy rain, snow, fog, etc.) or weather conditions that may interfere with sensor operation. The road facing camera is obstructed, covered or damaged by mud, ice, snow, etc. Obstruction caused by applying excessive paint or adhesive products (such as wraps, stickers, rubber coating, etc.) onto the vehicle. The device is mounted incorrectly. When in sharp curves, like on-off ramps, intersections etc...; openpilot is designed to be limited in the amount of steering torque it can produce. In the presence of restricted lanes or construction zones. When driving on highly banked roads or in presence of strong cross-wind. Extremely hot or cold temperatures. Bright light (due to oncoming headlights, direct sunlight, etc.). Driving on hills, narrow, or winding roads. The list above does not represent an exhaustive list of situations that may interfere with proper operation of openpilot components. It is the driver's responsibility to be in control of the vehicle at all times.

You’d be surprised how much work goes into operating with that many subscribers. Top funnel, attrition, constant harassment, stolen content, fan requests, just to name some obvious ones.

Isn't Reddit like this, in a way? You can append ".json" at the end and get the data for a page. Others can build their own UI on top of this, if they don't prefer the first party representation.

This has regressed. In the NetZero days you would be limited to some hours per month depending on your plan. Then came unlimited cable. And now we are back: my residential AT&T DSL connection is limited to 1TB per month in the Bay Area

This is incredible, thank you!

There’s a lot. Cisco makes them if you have their conference room hardware. Any new tech corporate office (and some non tech) will have some sort of hardware that lets you dial into the meeting and or reserve the conference room.

Yep. Got banned from Google ad mob because the ads I bought using other Google services gave me traffic that was deemed to be fraud.
Of course there’s no way to contact and tell Google that Google gave me fraud traffic and got me banned from Google.
Turns out people don't want to do business with you when you make comments like that.
Doesn't matter how much cool software you wrote. Or how much you donate. After a certain point people would rather not be involved with your behavior if it doesn't align.
Fortunately in this specific instance we see society taking SA and r**, as serious topics.
Let's hope we have more of this. Maybe one day I'll finally meet a female colleague in the tech industry who _doesn't_ have a harrassment story to share.
