This may sound like an insane take, but idc:

I swear people (esp here on HN) are actually blind to the weaknesses of Gemini.

I must be among the handful of people who know how thoroughly lobotomized any AI agent from Google must be given their extremely radical historical and contemporaneous practices of censorship.


I suspect those who praise Gemini use it mostly for JS/CSS/HTML because that's where it shines for me.

For complex code I have been having using Sonnet/Opus as usual with a mix of GPT5.3-Codex.


Does this car also come with an exterior?

I didn't see any.


> Does this car also come with an exterior?

technically no, since it doesn't come at all yet. It has yet to be launched. But the exterior is likely final or close to it by now.

Dripfeeding details in advance is a publicity move. It makes people hungry to see more. Expect to see it some time before launch in 2026.


wdym, how did your dog driver license even pass before AI ?!


He's a handsome boy.

Guessing they probably just ran some rudimentary OCR on the image to compare the name and DOB. I modified the actual license# as well as the picture.


Well then what was the point? If you gave them an ID that matches your name and DOB, they still got an identity vector that can conclusively match to your physical, government-acknowledged identity.

Not having a correct photo or license number didn't really mean anything to them if their OCR didn't have any half-decent verification that would look at the fields where that information was expected to be, anyway.


The tech used some variant of OCR, presumably


well, any dog can pass the driving exam in US


Any recommended resources for learning the first principles required to understand this and all the components involved?


For transmission lines: _Similarities of Wave Behavior_, presented by Dr. J. N. Shier (of Bell Labs fame, and whose team invented the phototransistor):

It's an easy thing to watch at any level, with both brilliant practical demonstrations and supporting math provided.


W2AEW on YouTube was one of my introductions to high-speed analog electronics (and I had the pleasure of working with him later on).


An Electrical Engineering course, or a book on practical circuit design.
