Terrible news about Bob Lee, @crazybob. I knew him quite well from the Java days and last saw him a few years ago. Shocking. I never felt safe in SF. I used to get teased about it from colleagues. May he rest in peace.

2022 was a huge year for EVs.

Thank you to Tesla owners, supporters & employees for helping us accelerate the world’s transition to sustainable energy! ⚡️🚘🔋☀️❤️

@elonmusk Yes please. Get back to solving global warming and making human kind an interplanetary species.

Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll.

Was reading Chaos Monkeys sample by @antoniogm today which had been languishing unread for the last couple of years. A very acerbic wit yet the book is a page turner. Got to page 50 and tried to buy. Cancelled!

Watched #TheSocialDilemma. Agree engagement based business models and recommendation engines which put you in your own reality bubble to drive that engagement are polarising society to our detriment.

Car damaged by another vehicle at a carpark. Was in Sentry Mode but no video was captured! Dog mode disables Sentry Mode. @elonmusk we need an external only Sentry Mode which works when Dog Mode is on. The manual gives mo warning of this problem - it mentions Camp Mode.

@elonmusk Can we get a control to not automatically disable WiFi when moving into Drive on #Tesla . Many if us don’t have WiFi in our garages and download updates when driving. Would also dave you money as streaming media could use a personal WiFi rather than the built-in LTE.

Our distributed lock in our CP Subsystem is. We have Jensen tests to prove it.

[Jepsen @jepsen_io]

New Jepsen analysis! We talk about etcd's kv operations, watches, and locks. KV ops look strict serializable, and watches deliver all changes in order (with a minor undocumented edge case around revision zero). As usual, distributed locks aren't real:

We should practice #socialdistancing not just at a community and personal level but at a country level. History shows that country level quarantines always get bypassed, but the goal is to slow transmission into Australia until a vaccine is developed.

[Greg Luck @gregrluck]

I think it is crazy that in Australia we will quarantine a special rescue flight of Australians for 14 days, while if they caught a commercial flight to Australia they walk straight out of the airport. There are 43 direct flights from China per day!

@FlyAirNZ and @AKL_Airport need to fix international transfers. Still only 2 machines for the last 10 years with way more passengers. Standing in a queue of 150 people with a 45 minute wait for the second time In a month. Won’t be spending any money at the shops here.

[Greg Luck @gregrluck]

Woh @Tesla. Nice #CyberQuad, horrible #CyberTruck. Cannot imagine a worse looking truck. A 2 year old could do better.
