i feel like scaling is rarely brought into the conversation. It’s easy to hate on ms, especially with their AI slop narratives, but they did get a sudden and then ongoing influx of users that the system was not designed to handle. It’s the kiss of death and it’s not anything new in terms of product failure scenarios

Back in the days when I used to use windows, they way I navigate through the task bar was window key + app index (manually sorted). Same way i navigate through tabs in my browser. This, of course, can be my own ergonomic feature, but using a task bar without this feature feels clunky.

And since full-screen apps on MacOS work on different workspaces, and the bar is context-dependent to the workspace - this means that I have to choose to work on a maximized window or have it in my taskbar. It will be nice if there is an option to consolidate all the apps. Static, sticky, salad.

And damn, I used to pay $100-200 for an entire OS, now its $40 for a taskbar. - "Old man yells at inflated clouds"

I don’t believe anyone here suggests or hints at the extremes(100%) you are referring to. Mockery for the “i don’t play games so games are childish” argument is fine tho

Bro, is there anything you haven't thought hard about? I read throughout the thread and the answers sound really LLM-y. Although these days we might be calling wolf about gusts of wind.

Great framework tho. Awesome job.

Not related to the topic. You have to say something - go yell at twitter, bluesky or any other cesspool of barber-shop opinions ;-)

Why is this even a post? These models are not intelligent. That's not even controversial. LLMs are not the foundation for general intelligence.

Ever heard of weather? Long distances? Sickness? Hills? A stroller is walking with a handicap.

Arguing for the sake of arguing in this case is really poor on your part.

I'd have to agree with the "Redditor Detective" here. I've asked you a lot about your statements and all you basically said is "i know shit".

The redditor comment here is sort of a projection. Kind of like ..a redditor mod.

Are you a technician or an engineer? And as a follow up, what part of the vehicle do you engineer?

Because this sounds a lot like a case of a dentist seeing a lot of cavities and making conclusions that teeth are "bad tech".

I live in a climate that's in yearly flux from -20 to +35 C and EVs have been normal here for a long time(7+ years) with no major issues. What parameters and therefore regions does your statement cover? I'm sure you can't run an EV in Syberia(RU), but people with petrol cars there have to run them even parked to avoid freezing during the winter so there will always be extremes.

As for the commercial equation: BYD and Tesla don't seem to be fitting that narrative. So this is not a matter of a marketing mistake - but an overall execution on the failed manufacturers.
