LASIK has a too-high complication rate (2% I think) and permanent corneal flap, so I shied away from it. Also, it’s offered by exactly one company pretending to be three in my area.
I won’t be able to take advantage of this given my age but I’m hoping it turns out!
It’s possible to drive without legs. It’s easy to drive with one hand. I’d wager it could be done with more skill than many drivers exhibit with only one limb.
I’ve got an EV that has an app and I would like to remote start it depending on the weather. Hell, I’d be ok with a shortcut “Siri, start my car”.
But the clowns have blocked it, like this. The app takes a lot more time than finding my keys. There is a subscription for the service. They have no idea how people actually use their vehicles despite collecting all this data.
If it’s a load issue (which certainly it can be) I can’t understand why they don’t discuss it with the developer or even publisb their own interaction libraries.
The honest answer is the boring one. We pulled an ultrahackathon. The team who built this did not sleep much for two days. They worked through Wednesday night, through Thursday, through Thursday night, through Friday. They ate at their desks. They wrote the spec late Wednesday evening and they wrote the cutover commit on Friday afternoon, and in between they did the work that the time between those two moments required.
I’m just shocked this isn’t a story about how AI rebuilt their product in record time (followed by a “we’re closing” post)
Or Amazon these days. People also have no qualms about ordering electronic gizmos that run on mains power and have no certifications at all, etc. It’s cheap and the right shape, it’s all that matters.
PWA isn’t as bad as electron but it’s similar. No local storage or offline capability - which is fine for a weather app, but not fine for something with persistent data like email or chat or a word processor. My computer has loaded up an entire GUI, with local storage and RAM, make use of it in an intelligent way instead of just loading a browser instance and assuming I don’t mind latency.
PWA is 100% better than an “App” that’s just a data collection unit showing the website. Which is all too common too.
I’ve looked into this a bit but not deeply and add to the chorus of no. The voltage isn’t right and the charge controller doesn’t charger properly and it’ll detect charge levels incorrectly - its not like a car where it’s fed a fairly constant 12-14V that can be handled by a BMS and integrated charge controller.
Well that’s the thing I’m trying to say. It shouldn't need to be enforced or checked (but yes, i support legislation) any more than putting pants on before going outside. But clearly, it’s fairly common behaviour to ignore basic rules.
Good perspective. If there’s parking space, it’s costing money to maintain. Perhaps not a lot on a monthly basis, but the cost should be recovered.
Local business owners probably don’t want to pay the likely thousands of dollars in taxes that would be needed to support the parking in front of their business.

That and tooth regeneration.
