Technology
News community around technology, social media platforms, information technology and governmental policy surrounding it.
What doesn't fit here?
The core of the story has to be technology focused.
- If article mentions "AI" in a sentence and then talks about business economics that doesn't make it tech news.
- Gaming is too many layers removed from technology. There are many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Transporation is too many layers removed from technology. EVs while use many cool technologies have many dedicated communities that are a better fit for it.
- Entertainment is too many layers removed from technology. While sometimes it can fit here, business or cultural aspects of it are a better fit for dedicated communities.
- Cybersecurity. While it heavily focuses on technology, most of the time it's too technical for most people who are not already invested in it. Should be posted in a dedicated communities unless it has broader connection to other tech areas.
Post guidelines
Title format
Post title should mirror the news source title. If you don't like the title of article, look for an alternative source instead of editorializing it.
URL format
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
[Opinion] prefix
Opinion (op-ed) articles must use [Opinion] prefix before the title. Opinion articles refer to articles that their publisher doesn't explictly endorse.
Country prefix
Country prefix can be added to the title with a separator (|, :, etc.) if the news is from a local publisher who doesn't clearly mention the country.
Rules
1. English only
Title and associated content has to be in English.
2. Use original link
Post URL should be the original link to the article (even if paywalled) and archived copies left in the body. It allows avoiding duplicate posts when cross-posting.
3. Respectful communication
All communication has to be respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences.
4. Inclusivity
Everyone is welcome here regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, caste, color, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.

Ok you still literally talk about taking extraordinary risks while pretending you are more observant which is not something you can know.
You’re just a shitty driver.
Shitty driver that has no accidents. No tickets. Reduced insurance due to how safe of a driver I am. Only person in my entire extended family with absolute zero accidents or even minor fender benders.
Yup I must be a really shitty driver.
Just like a great ball player can be the GOAT and have no championship rings you can be a bad driver and haven’t had an accident yet.
Again all of this starts because you literally describe taking unnecessary risks while claiming to be “better” than others around you which you cannot actually know.
I don't think it's a massive leap in logic to claim I am a better driver than most when I haven't hit anything and I can park between two lines correctly. Most drivers have no clue where the edges of their vehicles are and they seem to really struggle with parking correctly.
And you have really latched onto an incredibly specific example that I gave of where a car automatically braking would cause an accident where there otherwise would not be an accident. I'm sure I could have explain that rare hypothetical better in my original comment, but it was just the first example I could come up with where an automatic brake would be an issue.
It's not something I do often just for the hell of it. It's something that has come up on a few very rare occasions that I identified as a scenario where having the car automatically brake would be bad. You seem to think that's a maneuver I'm pulling daily when I can assure you it is not.
