Ahem

Yes. Thankfully in my experience I’ve only dealt with this once or twice. But it’s a pita every time.

I’ve tried switching macOS to a case sensitive file system, but not all programs can handle it (at the time it was Photoshop).

That’s called a workaround. No end user should have to rely on a workaround as a solution to a bug; and make no mistake, it’s a bug.

I’m probably going to get downvoted to Hell and back, but someone’s gotta say it: that’s a git problem, not Windows.

First of all, I agree that case-insensitive file systems suck. It makes things inconsistent, especially from a development standpoint.

But, everyone has known that Windows (and macOS) use case insensitive file systems. At least for Windows, it always has been that way.

Git was written in Linux, which uses a case sensitive file system. So it’s no surprise that its internals use case insensitive storage. Someone ported it over to Windows, and I’m sure they knew about the file system differences. They could’ve taken that into account for file systems that are case insensitive, but chose not to do anything to safe guard Windows users.

But until the day that somebody fixes Git, everybody who is not using case sensitive file systems needs to care more about how they name things (and make sure their team does too). Because fuck everyone else, right?

Found Daniel Handler’s account.

Not sure which side of the argument you’re taking. But, to answer your questions…

how much does it cost tesla to provide API access?

Not as much as they would want you to believe. Most APIs are written once, and only updated if a major change in the backend happens. The majority of any operating costs would go into cloud services, if the telemetry from the car is sent to Tesla first. I don’t own a Tesla, so I don’t know for sure. I would imagine it’s, because that would allow Tesla better metrics on app usage.

or we don’t discuss their costs structure and profit margin?

Whose? Tesla or the app developers? I’m not against a business making a profit. It’s kind of the point. They provide some sort of service, and as a customer we pay some sort of fee. The problem as I see it, some companies (like Twitter, Reddit, and Tesla for example) are not balancing the age-old “supply and demand” model of economics. Of course that’s my opinion.

we only do that for the guy doing the actual work

Huh? Please explain.

lol

I don’t get it. Why do people end their otherwise non-funny statements with “lol”?

Yes, I didn’t account for the transaction fees. But I believe my point still stands. If people find enough value in it, they’d probably pay for it; and that’s why Tesla is charging what they are.

I do agree with you about it being batshit crazy. If it were me, I sure as hell wouldn’t want to pay $15/mo for that. But I try to be a cheapskate where I can.

I hate subscription services. And I hate money-grubbing corps. Especially when they try to profit off of your own data.

That said, this is not that as infeasible as it sounds. The dev for Tessie reportedly has 400k users. That’s roughly $12.50/month per user. Modestly speaking, if the dev charged their users $13/mo, he’d profit $2.4 million per year. For $15/mo, he would profit $12 million per year.

That’s probably what Tesla is hoping their devs would do. And I’m sure a lot of Tesla owners could afford the fee.

Thanks!

I’m old, and curmudgeon, so I say this with much disdain: there are few things that need ”updating” or “multiplayer”, and the terminal is not one of them.

Edit: forgot a word

If this is true, then it’s not a setting that users can access. At least not that I can find.

Best you can do is auto wipe after 10 failed pins.

Those commit messages though 🤣

FTFY

I don’t understand why they don’t just migrate .io into a non-country code domain. Hell, they could auction it off to anybody (company, country, or person) who wants it bad enough. Let it live alongside the other custom domains.

We’re kind of seeing that with those private jet trackers. But that’s not changing anything except getting those accounts banned from social media.

This should be illegal. There is absolutely no good reason this should be available to anybody. It should also be considered unconstitutional; if one of those dots is a person, whether you directly know who the person is or not, it should violate the right to privacy and the right of illegal search and seizure — no questions asked.

Because right now’s political climate is about how abortion is being billed en masse as murder, and people are having to go to other states to get abortions (even for miscarriages), so the states that bill abortion as murder want to be able to prosecute the women. So there are a lot of fears that states will be tracking women through tools like this, and it turns out the fearful were correct.

Let’s bring back those animated gifs (mailbox and under construction) from the 90s. That’ll get everyone riled back up again.
