That would definitely break some stuff for me.

Lots of first, last, and even, odd usage.

Unfortunately, my municipality of 2,200 users is planning to do this.

Also, all water meters are being replaced so they can be read remotely without a human physically using an electronic meter reader.

Kinda like ‘doing agile’ can mean anything, it seems.

Well, Mark Cuban has a TV show, and we would not be talking about that if it weren’t for Yahoo.

If there were only one or two, but I think the Audi has at least 5 or 6 different and seperate ‘interfaces’ on and besides the steering wheel. To me, it seems like an overly complex UX.

All the German car manufacturers have in terms of engineerig talent and cultural is mostly mechanical, and brilliantly so.

But, the electronics suck.

Some of the most talented chemical, physical materials and electrical engineers work for Musk’s companies.

You can just tell that Tesla’s were not designed with teams in silos. I don’t think car makers are currently capable of that.

I don’t think they designed the system to continually exfiltrate data to be used for further improvement of the technology.

Not much LTE uploads is my guess.

Tesla has so much more sensor data to guide engineering efforts with.

It is a bit overkill, though, no?

It seems every option is enumerated as its own physical switch, knob, or lever.
