I was many years user of JetBrains stuff. Tried vscode multiple times and last time I checked it was full Microsoft bullshit.

Finally I settled with Zed. It’s amazing. Still has some missing features but overall great experience once you set it all up to your liking.

How do you search for a restaurant or a barber when you’re in a city you’ve never been before? Or how do you rent a car on an airport in another country? You ask for a telephone book?

I have this car since 2024. The previous generation. I can answer some more questions if you wish.

I charge at home. Sometimes at DC when I do some longer trips. Longest was 300km at once. Had to do 2 stops 30 minutes each.

Normally in the summer I get 2km per 1% of battery. That is 11kw/h while driving 110km/h on the Autobahn. During winter it goes down to 1,5km per 1%.

That means I can safely drive 160km in one hop and the charge with some bigger buffer during summer. 100km during winter.

That is for a long trips. I use this car mainly to move around my city. If I wouldn’t charge it at home I’d charge it during weekend groceries. 40 minutes charging on any DC charger would bump it up to 90% easily. So groceries time.

Apart of this this car is a banger. A classic car with no bullshit digital stuff, but electric.

Holy crap. This is a cool device!

This article was written by a bot too. Meta says first that all searches are private by default. Then that used can opt out of them being public.

You have one job journalist! Fact check!

I think there’s some „reasonable” keyword in the right to be forgotten. Like first if you have some old backups on tapes and you must keep them for whatever reason still for few years m, you can deny altering them if it the cost would be exorbitant and you ensure the users won’t come back after a recovery from said backup.

Also they might train their models on pseudo-anonymized dataset so as long it’s too expensive to deanonymize the user data it could be fine in terms of GDPR.

For example: you generate car trips stats per city in a country, per day. You could argue that you don’t need to delete user data that is part of this set if you ensure there are always enough of trips recorded (so can’t deanonymise someone from a single entry) and also it would falsify your historical stats.

At my company who likes to be super compliant we do remove people from this kind of stats using some pseudo-anonymous references. So if you remove your account, there’s an event that changes the historical analytics data and removes all traces of your activity. But that’s because we can and want to be cool (company culture principles).

Other data we have (website analytics) are impossible to go into this process as we ensure we never know WHO did something. We only know what and when.

Thing is there’s somehow not much coverage on this topic in the media. I only got our internal corporate documents because at our place we’re preparing for it for months already. Its not that easy to invite third parties to a big piece of your cloud iot setup.

EDIT: here is longer but good source. The law came into power somewhere last year but companies had some extra time to prepare their shit which times out September 12

Soon this all will be much easier. From 12 of September we’re going into a new world of EU Data Act that forces all companies to allow third parties to communicate with iot devices. Which a car is.

So soon Mazda will need to provide those APIs in an official way.
