It's the future, and phones have minimal holes. Wired USB-C headphones do exist, but the solution to storage space has largely trended towards "well have you considered the ☁️ cloud ☁️ ?"
Frankly I'm just glad USB still exists at all on phones. I suspect eventually that, too, will begin to disappear in favor of "haha well we have wireless charging.... What, connect your phone to a computer? Attach a peripheral? Why would you ever want any of that??"
I think this is mostly what you want, but as far as I can find online (and I'll test it again later today) it no longer shows traffic warnings and your current speed like the destination maps does. I think it used to, though, which is what's annoying about this whole situation.
I actually lost this feature for a while - it used to be under the hamburger ≡ menu as "Just Drive" and then the hamburger menu disappeared, and I've just recently found it again as a widget.
So, yeah, Google kills all good things and I'm sure it won't last for much longer, but it's nice in the meantime.
OK so I've read this whole thing and I'm still a bit confused, so help me please: this refers to the "Driving Mode" which hides all my apps and gives some weird simplified interface, right?
Because there's also a "Driving" mode which is only accessible via a widget (why, Google) which gives you a map while driving without having to specifically enter a destination. That one's staying, presumably?
Important context autotldr missed:
The incident happened when the engineer was programming the software that controls the robots, which cut car parts from aluminium, The Information reported.
Two of the robots were disabled, but a third was inadvertently left on. As it went through its normal motions, it caught the worker in its claws.
Yikes, that should be checked multiple times before someone gets close to the clawed aluminum cutting robot. Failure of process, I suspect.
Oh, you "know", eh? Sounds like we got a scientist over here, boys! Let's get him!
(But seriously: I added that bit because I went and looked it up myself based on your post, and I thought it was interesting and other readers might also find it neat. One of those TIL things.)
Somewhat unrelated, but I do find it funny that farts aren't considered acceptable, but sneezes and coughs are. Like, farts have an extra barrier in the form of your clothing (assuming you're not at a nudist colony or bathhouse) and won't make other people sick. I guess it's just because they're stinky.
I vote to normalize farting with an "excuse me", and saying "bless you" to people when they fart.
Devil's Tower is apparently not even a volcano according to science, but "but was injected between sedimentary rock layers and cooled underground. The characteristic furrowed columns are the result of contraction which occurred during the cooling of the magma." source
Anyway, science can be wrong, assume everything is a volcano until proven otherwise. Devil's Tower? Volcano. The hill outside your house? Volcano. Your dog? Believe it or not, volcano.
"client side validation is fine, nobody's gonna open up the dev console"
I can absolutely see the same as what you see there. The brain's pretty good at blocking stuff out like that in general. Between my nose and my glasses frames, it's amazing how I mostly go through the day ignoring impeded vision.
While I get what you're saying and I think sometimes emojis can absolutely be overused or used in place of textual clarification, I feel they also serve as an effective substitute for a lack of non-verbal communication. Generally speaking, "what people say" is only half the story, and "how they say it" (the nuances of facial/bodily expressions, tone of voice, etc) is the other half.
When writing narratives, we get away from this by means of, well, narration. "... he said, cheerfully"; "... he replied, with just a twinge of annoyance to his voice"; "she said, while averting her eyes".
In first person communications like social media, we don't really have an effective way to communicate that sort of nuance. We do have action asterisks shudders in horror, shorthand expressions to represent actions like LOL, and emoji 🤷♂️ as potential alternatives, as well as some community-driven linguistic nuance like Reddit's usage of "/s" to indicate sarcasm.
We could also go all old-timey letter writing and say things like "while I find myself hesitant to reply to you in fear that you will consider it an attack, I do find myself with some concerns in regards to your comment and will elaborate below. I hope that you will not take these concerns as dismissive of your opinion in any way, as I simply mean to clarify some doubts and seek your own opinion on my thoughts as presented above." (This might be an example of "overly eloquent" and there is probably a happy medium.)
I find the ever-evolving linguistics of internet communication to be really fascinating, if you can't tell!
LaTeX resume templates exist if you wanna get extremely fancy with it. Otherwise, any text editing document that allows some basic level of formatting and headers will do the trick. If I get sent an extremely beautiful and well-formatted resume to read, it's a "good attention to detail" footnote in my mind but ultimately the actual content is much more important.
Since we're on the subject of resumes though, an open message to anyone who might be reading... Don't have an LLM help you write your resume. It's extremely obvious and makes your resume worse because it gets real generic and wordy with it. I've seen them, I've not been impressed by them, it makes me think this person may not actually be able to write coherently on their own.
And remember, a resume is a personal advertisement for you - make it punchy, and keep to bullet points highlighting impressive things you want a recruiter and hiring manager to know. Include buzzwords as pulled directly from the job posting to get through automated screening. Highlight projects you've done and what positive effect they had on the intended audience.
