Should I switch to a different IT job? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] Bell@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

I get you with the windows 7 thing but how big is this company? There's a point where "corporate best practices" don't make sense because there are fewer employees. Maybe negotiate with the boss for one or two of the top things on your list and push the rest until next year.

Also, no matter where you are you'll probably end up frustrated with management not giving you what you need.

Tesla Bet On 'Pure Vision' For Self-Driving. That's Why It's In Hot Water in c/evs@lemmy.world
[–] Bell@lemmy.world -1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The problem was the different sensors could sometimes disagree. Like, vision sees an obstacle but radar isn't picking it up...which one does the software believe?

And if you think vision has problems with things like rain and fog, try radar or lidar!

Not mentioning the downsides of the other sensors always makes me suspicious of an article.

The key point of going vision-only is that: its what humans do every day. Articles that leave that out also disappoint me.

I almost never watch "shorts" but my suggestions for it seem to have an...uhhh...adult theme. I don't watch any such thing with YouTube. Does everyone see garbage like this?
