I hope they’re able to move toward a client first renderer instead of the image tile approach they used previously. That was kinda a network hog and cludgy to use.

Carcinisation is the phenomenon of non crabs to evolve crab like characteristics. It is not the process of non crabs becoming true crabs.

In this case the language is trending toward JSON syntax, but it doesn’t have to actually be JSON for carcinisation to be an applicable analogy.

An infotainment screen can be separate from the thing that handles driving without a need to replace everything with physical buttons. It’s just a matter of having 2 computers (and thus extra cost) that are not connected. The driving computer can handle things like ECS, ABS, acceleration, braking, locking, unlocking, headlights, turn signals, and of course managing the motor components all while being disconnected from the Internet. The cabin computer can handle everything else and appear to the user the same as it does today. You can even connect the cabin computer to the Internet without risk of dying if you want the ability to remotely heat or cool the cabin or want an auto emergency response call in cases of a crash.

You don’t need an individual control for all the things that happen in a car, you just need intelligent, security aware decisions to be made when deciding what is critical for driving or safety and what is just there for comfort.

Parts of Iot are great, but not the whole “smart home sending multiple video and microphone feeds to Amazon/Google/Facebook” thing.

The ability to set up remote sensors on critical infrastructure to give early alerts is a benefit.

It is not a necessary design element of a car to have a single touchscreen to control the car. It is a willful bad choice.

It is entirely possibly to have a car who’s main driving components are air gapped from the windows, ac, radio, locks, etc. It just isn’t done for a lot of modern cars.

And then two hours later Trump just said “nuh uh” and raised tariffs globally another 10%.
