this is the same company that released a minivan with both gull wing doors and regular doors, and a giant windshield that continues up above the driver's head for extra direct sunlight on you while you drive.

I've been in a Model X. The gull wing doors have a little cubby that closes down over your head when the door is closed. if you leaned forward while the door was closing it would just hit you

i guess it could be called cozy


how many people see a reckoning on the horizon for all this? it was weird before but it's getting dangerous now, and yet the money keeps flowing

reminder that SpaceX's crewed capsule uses giant touch screens for controls, with manual buttons for a few things to be used in emergencies.



because those screens won't be hard to use while the craft is vibrating during takeoff/reentry while wearing a spacesuit, no sir. nevermind somebody accidentally brushing up against the panel while in zero-g.

lol at the different color temperature on every monitor.

just out of curiosity, is the front of an lcd panel strong enough to hold the liquid crystal in if the cabin is vented? i wonder how much pressure differential it can stand.

although, it looks like there's another layer on top of the lcd itself, so maybe it's sealed in there with a permanent pressure in front of the panel. but wouldnt that give a big parallax error if you weren't sitting directly in front of the panel when you wanted to change something with a big gloved finger?

i dunno im not a suit ux guy or anything, so maybe theres some cleverness about this implementation that im not seeing :thunk:

thing is spacecraft basically fly themselves these days. this isn't the apollo era

the space shuttle would typically reenter without any human guidance, the pilot was only needed for the final approach. buran could reenter and land completely uncrewed.

i don't think liquid crystal monitors have enough "liquid" in them for that to be an issue

seems that chris lattner publicly gets called the inventor of swift by apple (or, at least by the press). but IIRC you said in the CoC Swift thread you were the first person hired to design & work on swift full time, so v:shobon:v extremely my bad

it's a hang-up i have, don't worry about it. chris was working on swift before me (but part-time) and definitely led the project from the start. just one of those things where that means he gets 100% of the credit in pr / news articles

nope. credit is one thing but bonus is something else. your manager better loving spread that around or else your team needs to take a stay-at-work vacation next year.

working on compilers and dev tools was literally the only thing he'd ever done professionally, so even if you're right and he had the best possible job to have it seems natural to eventually want to try something different to at least have a point of comparison.

Get that poo poo outta my thread.

Objective-C is objectively the best language for iOS and Mac dev right now. Swift will be tied soon.
