☆ Tesla ordered by auto regulators to provide data on 'Elon mode' Autopilot configuration
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-30 | by ( Lora Kolodny | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +5 min

Tesla has received a special order from federal automotive safety regulators requiring the company to provide extensive data about its driver assistance and driver monitoring systems, and a once secret configuration for these known as "Elon mode." If the driver leaves the steering wheel unattended for too long, the "nag" escalates to a beeping noise. As CNBC previously reported, with the "Elon mode" configuration enabled, Tesla can allow a driver to use the company's Autopilot, FSD or FSD Beta systems without the so-called "nag." Tesla CEO Elon Musk who also owns and runs the social network X, formerly Twitter, often implies Tesla vehicles are self-driving. His use of Tesla's systems would likely comprise a violation of the company's own terms of use for Autopilot, FSD and FSD Beta, according to Greg Lindsay, an Urban Tech fellow at Cornell.

The Google Pixel 7 Pro is an expensive Android phone with a premium design and camera system, so equipping it with a reliable case is a worthwhile investment. Keep in mind that the Pixel 7 Pro differs in size from other Pixel phone models, including the Pixel 6 Pro, and the varied, trusted cases on our list are all specifically made for the Pixel 7 Pro. What should I look for in a Pixel 7 Pro case? Are Pixel 6 Pro and 7 Pro cases the same? While the Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 7 Pro are very similar in size, they do have a slight difference in dimensions, which means cases for one will not fit the other.

☆ I left Manhattan for LA. It's easier to make friends, my cost of living is lower, and I'm so much happier here.

I got the full New York City experienceI lived in Manhattan for 12 years. In 2015, I decided to sublet my West Village pad and spend the winter in Santa Monica. Santa Monica is one of the priciest areas of California, but it's still cheaper than Manhattan. Today I'm paying $3,000 a month for a spacious apartment in the heart of Santa Monica with amazing views of mountains and palm trees. New York City is unrivaled in its energy and diversity and is the major league of cities — truly world-class.

xНа открытии второго дня конференции выступил Андерс Фог Расмуссен, бывший премьер- министр Дании и генеральный секретарь НАТО. Он рассказал, что демократию нужно продвигать снизу вверх, а примером может быть поддержка инноваций, предпринимательства и новых идей из стран Восточной Европы. Именно в этом и заключается главная идея образовательной инициативы Democracy Tech Fellowship, которая продолжалась последние три месяца, в течении которых шесть участников из Украины, Грузии и Молдовы проходили обучение, получали консультации менторов и перенимали опыт датских стартапов. Выступление на саммите стало для участников инициативы заключительным этапом программы и своего рода выпускным экзаменом. Артур Гурэу, один из участников инициативы Democracy Tech Fellowship, рассказал о новом мобильном приложении Voteme.аpp, которое разработали в Молдове.

Programul va avea loc online și fizic pe durata a patru luni și va oferi celor șase antreprenori selectați la DemTech Fellowship mai multe oportunități pentru a extinde soluțiile pe care le dezvoltă la un nivel global. Colaborarea și participarea în program se bazează pe trei elemente cheie: învățarea colectivă, mentorat de la egal la egal și construirea unor rețele puternice. În prima fază a programului, participanții vor participa la lecții săptămânale, unde, în cadrul cursurilor, vor învăța modalități de a integrare a principiilor și proceselor democratice în proiectele lor. Acolo se vor întâlni cu mentorii lor, vor prezenta proiectele investitorilor și vor vizita câteva hub-uri și companii partenere selectate. VoteMeApp este o aplicație mobilă cu ajutorul căreia poți organiza orice tip de alegeri online.
