Why? Seems fine if people want to burn more cache reads.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stardebug came out of Ukraine and is useful for debugging the antenna, if you feel like looking at more data about it.

I take video calls for work regularly on Starlink. As long as you have clear visibility (eg not under a tree or the porch), it works great. I used to have occasional handover latency spikes, but I haven't noticed those recently.

New comment by l1n in "Waymo says can't avoid bike lanes because riders want to be dropped off in them"

l1n — Sun, 26 Apr 2026 19:05:55 +0000

this is a pointer to https://nyc.streetsblog.org/2026/04/22/waymo-is-not-in-the-v...

In San Francisco, the vehicles often pull into bike lanes to pick up and drop off passengers — because that’s what they’re programmed to do, according to advocates who’ve asked the company for an explanation.

Waymo has told advocates that expecting it to respect bike lanes is “too high a bar” because customers expect to be dropped off in them, said Christopher White, executive director of the San Francisco Bike Coalition.

“People always point out that unlike human driven cars, the AVs stop at lights and obey the speed limit. However, they are really only as good and effective and safe as they are programmed to be,” White said. “Waymos pull over into bike lanes all the time for pickups and drop-offs and that’s neither legal nor safe but the companies say that is a normal practice and that’s what customers expect.”

Can't find a Waymo article about this, but Lyft and Uber (let alone trad taxis) also do this. I'm not sure that this is a particularly autonomous-car-shaped sin.

Watched it twice, cried both times. Probably could have had a few minutes cut while still tight if you care about that kind of thing, recommend watching in IMAX since it's a space movie.

Also an engineer on this incident. This was a network routing misconfiguration - an overlapping route advertisement caused traffic to some of our inference backends to be blackholed. Detection took longer than we’d like (about 75 minutes from impact to identification), and some of our normal mitigation paths didn’t work as expected during the incident.

The bad route has been removed and service is restored. We’re doing a full review internally with a focus on synthetic monitoring and better visibility into high-impact infrastructure changes to catch these faster in the future.
