Had a close call tonight in my Model Y. Hit a patch of black ice and the car fishtailed, but FSD reacted faster than I could and corrected the slide before it turned into a spin.

Could’ve gone off the road or worse. Instead, it was a non-event.

Nice work, @elonmusk and @Tesla.

@smerconish The poll says “boats that ARE transporting” drugs. That’s different than those that “are SUSPECTED” of transporting drugs. Why not interdict and search them instead, just to be sure?

@elonmusknews30 Yes please. But I’ll always call it Twitter anyway.

Bet you didn't know shadows on #Windows11 extended this far. When you put 100 or so windows on top of each other, the shadows add together and become opaque so you can see the true outline.

@dhh This is my daily driver. I especially like the way everything can be remapped, so I have that little button under the scroll wheel do middle mouse click, and I turned off the side controls to prevent accidental scrolls. There is a newer model but I’m happy with this one.

Is anyone else tired of Google's design with all the excessively rounded corners (this is from Google Docs)? Time to update!

I’m flying to Seattle on @AlaskaAir and the experience has been fantastic. The attendants have been great, the seats are spacious, and the food in first class is amazing. I highly recommend them.

I think we have reached max Starbucks.

It’s time for @TradingView’s annual deep discounts. The best deal right now is their Premium plan which lets you do advanced charting, backtesting, and second-based alerts. I have no relationship with them other than being a happy customer.

@PragmaticAndy It won’t be the same without you.

Dear @KeychronMK, you make great keyboards, but the “\|” key should be the same color as the “]}” key in the key caps that come with the V1. Also it would be nice to include different heights for the keys on the right so I can put them where I want. Thank you.

I asked ChatGPT to write a tanka poem about itself:

In words and data,
A mind seeks answers and truth,
ChatGPT knows.
Questions asked and answered,
Curiosity aglow.

One thing I like about @DoorDash is that if your order gets screwed up, they will give you a refund with no argument. You pay no fees with DashPass, plus you get $30 off with a referral. Not an ad, I’m just a frequent customer.

Amazon is discontinuing its Smile program where a small percentage of your purchase goes to a charity of your choice, at no cost to you. I urge everyone to sign the petition at https://t.co/bDUAyAbm9L and also to email [email protected] to protest the change.

The stunningly brilliant voice of Michael Winslow doing Led Zeppelin’s “Whole Lotta Love”.

You will never hear music the same again.
