You, my dear HN denizen, are the MVP.

I used to collect these matchbox covers as a kid. Just like stamps. A bit later in time than the ones shown in the website, but definitely as fancy. There were no large "match box" corporations and each region had their own designs. Once our parents took us on a tour to North India and matchbox covers from those cities were the highlight of my collection.

Ads can be a nuisance but if/ when done they can be nice too.

I hate the Google sponsored results/ ads, often they masquerade as an organic result and push the actual relevant results down in the list.

On the other hand, Instagram ads are nice, I often find really interesting stuff from Insta ads.

It's a tradeoff, too early to say if it's a dumb move.

Side A: Tesla can grow FSD subscription revenue by making FSD + Autopilot completely based on subscription. Lot more people use Autopilot than FSD. In the happy path such users will pay the subscription and that revenue will increase.

Side B: Autopilot (aka lane keeping) is fast becoming default option across manufacturers. Tesla will take a dip in sales if such 'basic' option is no longer available.

Whether side A > side B is to be seen.

I'd prefer to evaluate it from the viewpoint of someone outside the Tesla c-suite.

$22k Corolla has it.

Not paying $99/mo for it.

The issue is not that “FSD” is $99/mo. The issue is that a feature of $22k cars (lane keeping) is behind the $99/mo paywall.

Basically not enough people were buying the subscription for Elon to get his payout. But someone who just wants auto steering isn’t going to decide they’ll pay $99/mo for that. So this is just going to make people who like that feature not buy a new Tesla when the time comes.

1. Developing an voice AI agent (applied AI, not research)

2. Production ready AI - mix of code and human eval

3. Understanding and building for the new agentic AI commerce

we should not dilute the effect of what's been by saying Maduro was not good for Venezuela.

One can only think if all the customer complaints really went to Bill Gates, how much different Microsoft would be today. They still operate in a world where they think once they build something, people would just use it. CoPilot is the latest example.

IIRC:

What you can do:

1. At setup time, you are not forced to provide any apple ID.

2. You can login to your notebook without needing Apple ID

3. Install apps directly (i.e not from app store)

What you cannot

1. Install apps from App Store

2. Get Apple care etc.

I think Netanyahu cleverly played on Trump's ego to get him to strike Iran.

Why do people talk like this is all just one person’s decision? There’s an entire government apparatus involved advisors, military leadership, intelligence agencies. It’s not a dictatorship where one guy just snaps his fingers and things happen. I just can't believe this whole thread.
