As a programmer, watching the latest Some More News episode on the cyber truck broke my heart. All the support forum titles read like an old Linux forum. Its software bugs all the way down. I’m not a car person but between that and spending $2000 on sensors for my car that the car ran perfectly fine without (for inspection purposes), I’m beginning to think we’ve put too much sentient sand into these cars. Oh, and fuck the tendency to replace knobs with touch screens. Horrible design.

I'm gonna guess there was already a lot sentient sand in trains, planes, and cars, and good design principles to make sure it (almost) never fails and stuff like the entertainment system doesn't break the whole vehicle. I'm gonna also guess Musk fired anyone with that sort of background because they said no to some harebrained idea.

there's no way anyone like that survived the design phase of the cybertruck. anyone who wasn't fired surely resigned.
