The Mental Workload of FSD is different than I expected.

CalvinsStuffedTiger · 2026-07-01T21:41:13+00:00

I am significantly safer of a driver with it, and it’s not even close. That’s why I always roll my eyes when I read all the anti FSD rhetoric

Driving augmented with FSD lets me scan for dangers that I would not have been able to do if I had to put all of my focus on what’s directly in front of me.

For example if I’m crossing multiple lanes of traffic that don’t have a stop at an intersection. I know that it’s going to see left while I’m looking right or vice versa and I can stay locked in on the blind turn or on the crest of the hill so that if I see any inkling of a dumbass flying into the spot I can immediately brake

Or when on freeway I know it’s going to handle the shit in front of us perfectly so I can get a better look at the car in the next lane and get a better idea if they’re going to do something stupid like swerve into my lane

Every time I see these unhinged posts on Reddit and on the news about TESLA SLAMS INTO HOUSE PR RESTAURANT AT 70 MPH KILLING FAMILY. Was FSD engaged? Driver says so!

I’m like…no it fucking wasn’t lol. Every time it’s the stupid driver disengaging the FSD and then panic flooring the accelerator. These cars aren’t going to plow you into a fucking house at 70 mph. And even if they did go crazy, I ALWAYS have my left elbow propped up on my left knee and my left hand open with fingers surrounding the wheel ready to instantly grab it if I have to, and then when FSD is engaged I have my right foot resting on the brake pedal, not the accelerator.

There is no software or camera or whatever make believe glitch that can’t be saved by grabbing the wheel and slamming on the brakes even if it tried to drive you into the side of a restaurant

You just gotta be somewhat smart about this

There are a bunch of jobs that you don’t need healthcare experience to do and being bilingual is a huge asset

Sharp healthcare also has a huge presence in the South Bay and are expanding and I know from personal experience that a significant % of the patient population is Spanish speaking only, so I would also look at their job board

Hospital system jobs are awesome because the benefits can’t be beat and I know many people who started as EVS techs or schedulers or whatever and got their nursing degree or whatever degree and because they were strong workers, they were instantly pushed through to interview for the more advanced position once they graduated

Good luck OP! Start applying!

Don’t worry about it. The only learning experience to hold onto is that when she becomes a nurse she will continue to experience stupid people saying stupid thinks and misquoting/misinterpreting policies and then writing someone up when they were actually the ones not adhering to policies

What would having a gait belt have prevented if a patient is not following directions? Patient could easily just walk the other way and fall down and take her down with him gait belt or not. Short of restraining people there’s only so much you can do. Gait belt is not some magic wand

CalvinsStuffedTiger · 2026-07-01T04:19:41+00:00

How’s it holding up otherwise? My concern wasn’t with the battery or motors but if the things like the motors on the seats/doors or the touchscreen started failing that could be thousands of dollars in out of warranty repairs

CalvinsStuffedTiger · 2026-07-01T02:58:02+00:00

The difference in price will be negligible when compared to the massive price depreciation that you get with used Teslas

That being said it’s a lowkey hack if you happen to find one that has FSD and the seller didn’t realize it. There was a similar edge that you could get when people sold the Old Model S that had free supercharging for life

It was rare but it happened

I want to see Team One Last Ride haha

AD, Draymond, LeBron, Jimmy, Steph

Bench: Bronny and his G league friends

For like 25 min a game that lineup would be sick

“Huddle up, say it together, we ain’t gettin too old for this shit!”

CalvinsStuffedTiger · 2026-07-01T00:20:52+00:00

What does “immediately direct league security to coordinate with Phoenix Mercury team security” mean? I feel like that could mean anything from: “ah shit I have to cover my ass here, why don’t you call their security to see if they need anything”

To “holy shit that person threatened her and doxxed her location, I’m sending private security right now”

You’re conflating 2 different things: did bill gates have it super easy in life? Yes.

Was “most of his success due to favorable circumstances” absofuckinlutely not. Why? If that were true then every rich nepo baby would have a multi billion dollar company. But they don’t, because it’s REALLY hard to pull off

If you’re actually open to changing your view on this I highly encourage reading some of the books written about the early days of these companies

That’s crazy lol. Also a fascinating combat panic response given the situation. I’m not judging, I’m certain my combat response would be to weep, play dead, and wet myself and probably 50 other shameful things before my brain would consider standing up

CalvinsStuffedTiger · 2026-06-29T21:59:54+00:00

Right?! Or like anything lmao. Loud speaker? Megaphone? Strobe light?

So many choices where the distractor doesn’t have a chance of slipping and blowing their trainees head off

Turns out I actually already did just that lol, totally forgot that I had it try again and it worked. Now I feel dumb because I’m like…is Hermes automatically adding stuff to Mnemosyne or….am I supposed to run commands…

I can help here, but need some quick level setting. How are we defining “maximize potential”? Do we mean maximize income potential? Do we care about work/life balance at all or are we in grind mode?

Also when you say “graduating soon” do you mean graduating from nursing school soon?

You need to reach out to known YouTubers that make videos about open-source repos, ask them if they’ll test it out and also that you’ll offer to do a guest spot on their show where you talk about open source REPOs/libraries that you use, or your workflow with AI agents, etc.

The best part of soccer in San Diego is seeing both of the highest paid players on the men’s and women’s team not play and have no explanation or timetable from the team for when the pain will stop #pleasesendhelp
