People need to request the source code.. There’s a ton of open source they use that forces Tesla to give you source if you’re a customer and you ask. I don’t get why security people aren’t doing this already.

What a nice trap to set

There are often hidden menus for “Hotel mode” that allow you to config which channel / input to default to on power up. No need to hack them.

Chains were raising prices way before the minimum wage hike. Everyone is, that’s inflation.

WSJ desperate to make it sound like California’s initiatives are backfiring.

I bought a pair based on bose technology for $1,000 they felt a bit hyped up. “Lexie B1 by Bose”

The iphone app controls feel like +/- treble or bass and that’s it. Felt like a real letdown, it does amplify audio just feels like loudness is all you control.

No remapping of frequencies, no fancy dsp.

There’s an open source hearing aid project that’s pretty good, more flexibility with filters definitely cooler:

As ex-Tesla this bothered me enough to come well-aksually!! because it would only near the factories - there aren’t any Tesla “dealerships”.

You’re safe New York!

If you like the thrill of a roller coaster with a child at the controls, it’s not so bad.

Maybe this time they can ship it with a better midi implementation!

Trying to use midi out from it is very weird, it’s all pitch end and +1/-1 for strum direction..

It’s one thing to use an adblocker to bypass ads, it’s completely another to just outright “steal” using a VPN scam.

Before netflix, you could watch dumb videos on youtube, that’s about it. They deserve to be paid for the market they built.

Look for the Ableton live realtime “reproducing prodigy’s fire starter in ableton”, it’s really a wonderful example. You’ll appreciate it.

For what it’s worth there is a builtin feature(s) with Ableton where you can:

* Convert audio clip to MIDI drum track

* Convert audio clip to MIDI melody

* Convert audio clip to MIDI harmony

None of them work exceptionally well but they get they get enough done that they’re useful for a first pass approximation in many situations.

It’s a bit of a stretch to think “field work” would be used as a double entendre to evoke the meaning of a slave working in a field.

But it doesn’t matter what I think because I’m not descended from a race of people who were enslaved and worked in the fields.

Those academics who might have a closer relationship with that identity are reasonably allowed to take umbrage. Even if I never meet someone who feels this way it’s fine with me.

The best part of it is the solution is simple and painless.

We had a similar situation when people started phasing out the phrase “master/slave” in computing.

There’s no reason why either one should make someone upset or combative. It’s offensive to someone who deserves to be offended if they wish.

That’s enough.

Once upon a time at Tesla, Elon brought SpaceX staff in to weed out the undesirables.

The autopilot team didn’t like being quizzed on basic c/c++ questions and that was the first time almost all of AutoPilot quit.

Or so I heard.
