Re: smart stuff
I have run into a number of conversations where it becomes clear that to some folks, they really don't give a crap about what would happen if they need someone else to take over their house/thing/whatever.
As an example: people who have driven Teslas and then drive a Hyundai EV are finding it infuriating that you have to tell the car every time you get in it that you want it to engage one-pedal driving. It will not stay on.
I actually think that makes perfect sense.
If for whatever reason I need someone else to drive my car, whether that be in an emergency, to help me out, or even like valet parking if I have to do that somewhere, I would rather it behave like a normal car.
I don't think it's much of an ask for me to have to squeeze the left paddle every time I turn it on to turn on one pedal driving. But some other folks really really hate that, and in fact one person told me "who cares about other people driving my car?"
Well, I do!
I think in many facets of life we need to remind ourselves to think through things from other perspectives.
What works for you may not work for other people, and that's totally okay! And what seems insane to you might seem completely practical to somebody else.
@TechConnectify While I agree with you on things like i-Pedal, there's definitely way more problems with their current VCU platform that needs work because it's confusing.
But they may not invest a lot more into fixing these kinds of things and advancing it on their current software base, because they're working on implementing Nvidia DRIVE.
We'll see, I guess.
