    @faustianwigger Reporting a crash on waze after i showed a cyclist the error of his ways (a hit and run).

    @wholemars @DevinOlsenn It could be, if able to change the speed limit control on the screen. This could actually fix two major issues, current speed limits being wrong as the entire neuro-net could be updated in real time, like in Waze, and the system can properly adjust to user preferences as it would know what said preferences are

    @emollick And I'm convinced that Waze does the opposite... Always prefer the slow route through a residential neighbourhood so the users feels like they're taking a "shortcut".

    @ChuckCook It's aggravating to me because it's obvious mapmate or whatever mapping program they use has such bad speed limit data in it, and the car acts on that. Why couldn't they just use Waze for speed limits? If there's a problem with a speed limit in Waze, just hit the report button and a local editor fixes it within a day or so.

    The old Waze fail because there’s no restrictions on the billions of dollars if you have a restriction point it at this money will be used for homelessness. That’s a restriction no restriction they do whatever they want with it. That’s the problem. Federal funding a restriction

    You people don’t rate Waze. Any day, anytime. Only problem is tech by genocidaires and spawns of Satan. Active collaboration.

    @naomirwolf @Uber Occasionally I have opened up the Waze App and had the volume on low so that the driver knows I'm comparing their route with the route from Waze. I stopped using Uber after the driver started pulling away from the curb before I was fully into the backseat-- and the door was still open. He only stopped when I yelled loudly. I use Lyft instead. All good, no problems.

    @thsottiaux Reverse engineering the USB protocol between lightburn/ezcad to a 100W fiber laser I have that I've avoided using because the software is so meh. Maybe if I build a programatic interface I'll actually use it. Launch an app I've been working on for months thats like super waze ; connects to radar detectors and shares the pings with other users. Spend a good evening reviewing new tools/skills and workflow stuff.

    Dear @waze I love your maps! However, since you added the animation at app launch, my app locks up and I can’t put in my desired address. It works about 50% of the time. Please fix it. In the meantime I’ll be using @Apple maps.

    @freeloader2021 Is the problem FSD the Driver or FSD the Navigator. I think map data needs lanes selection like waze

    @BenCarrollMP How many of the last 30 years have Labor been in office? And as far as reporting problems? Just get your blokes on Waze. The public are doing their best to warn each other.

  • InOneScoop
    InOneScoop (@InOneScoop) reported

    Shouldn’t Tesla fix its navigation issues instead of terrafab first? I know many like my fam that paused FSD subscription due to continuous navigation intervention. I man even Mapquest is more accurate. Hear me out: solution? Terra Giga Map Fab. A 335 football field long factory that will be the platinum (not gold) standard of all mapping. Compute won’t be a problem for this either because the terrafab 1 will then be joined by terrafab 2 which will be 10x larger for colossal compute power. I know I know you are asking “but why not just license and integrate Fkn Waze?” Well, for that we have to wait for Elons master plan 18 due in 2029

    I fail to see the issue here. I use Waze so that it WILL load balance based on real time info. If an artery is crowded, spread the cars out to different paths. Net time improvement. Also, to the traffic planners in Las Vegas who create rolling red lights on purpose, **** you.

    We’re not going to help these people by bringing in a few hundred thousand of them into our country. There is probably close to a billion of these people. Instead, we need to send people over there to train and educate as many of them as we can in Waze. They could work to fix this problem. They are extremely primitive people. They are inappropriate to be selected to live here in America. ________

  • congressdj
    DJ (@congressdj) reported

    @SurScribbles It has problems integrating with many cars (believe, I feel like I always seem to rent them in my travels), I don’t think adding more stuff to the Tesla UI is the answer. Plus, my phone is always with me. I have access to all of the stuff CarPlay would carry over. I can stream music directly from my phone, or use Waze (which I do). At the end of the day, CarPlay is meant to bridge the car to its passenger. But with autonomy, none of that is necessary. Ultimately, you’ll be able to use your phone or laptop or anything else in the car. That’s why I think CarPlay is a step backwards. Not forward.

    Breach notices passed last year's total in the first half of 2026. That is not a louder alarm. It is a new instrument panel. When Waze made every driver a traffic sensor, roads changed. AI is doing the same to attack surfaces. Security teams need telemetry that sees the road, not just the crash.

  • bitforth
    Alan (@bitforth) reported

    @GergelyOrosz I am not surprised because I happen to have friends there. Google also uses them, Facebook names them differently but it's essentially the same thing. Especially in RL, the FANG documents, and so do most large tech companies. I would even challenge your claim that PRDs decide what should be built. In most companies, the core decision already exists before anyone opens the document either because a big customer problem has escalated, or an executive has set a priority, or sales demand a feature, a competitor has moved, or a small group has already agreed on the direction. A PRD RARELY creates that decision. They're mostly artifacts that large organizations require to make work visible to people who are not in the room where product decisions happen. You worked at Uber. You should know this better than most... the actual decision gets made in a meeting, a Slack thread, or a conversation between a few senior people. THEN the PRD is written just to formalize the decision, gather approvals, assign ownership, and create evidence of cross-functional collaboration. During calibration, that artifact becomes proof that someone “drove alignment” across six teams. The strongest case for a PRD is pretty much to stop people from building 6 different interpretations of the same idea, but then again... Google uses them aggressively and it is almost the perfect counterexample. It launched Allo and Duo while Hangouts already existed. It later killed Allo, split Hangouts into Chat and Meet, and eventually folded Duo into Meet. It ran Inbox beside Gmail for four years, then shut Inbox down and moved parts of it into Gmail. It acquired Waze in 2013, explicitly kept its product team separate, and still develops both Waze and Google Maps as overlapping navigation products more than a decade later. I am 100% SURE all of those teams had detailed PRDs. In fact, a polished PRD can make duplication worse. It gives every team a coherent narrative, supporting metrics, a roadmap, and a professional-looking artifact with which to defend its territory.

    @DevinOlsenn I have no problem with mine. Waze? WTF is that.

  • jackcoder0
    Jack (@jackcoder0) reported

    First why most drivers never discover CarPlay's app ecosystem. When you connect your iPhone to CarPlay for the first time: your CarPlay-compatible apps appear automatically. Apple Maps. Apple Music. Messages. Phone. Podcasts. The Apple defaults. Third-party CarPlay apps don't appear until you download them on your iPhone. They're not promoted on the CarPlay screen. There's no "CarPlay App Store" in the dashboard. No "Discover New Apps" section. No recommendations. Download a compatible app from the App Store on iPhone, and it should appear the next time you connect. The discovery problem: you have to know an app exists, download it on your iPhone, and then it appears in CarPlay. If you don't know Waze has CarPlay support you'll never see it on your dashboard. If you don't know Overcast exists Apple Podcasts remains your only option. The result: 90% of CarPlay dashboards show 5 Apple apps. The 300+ third-party apps sit in the App Store undiscovered, uninstalled, unused. The reviewer's rule: "CarPlay's app ecosystem is a secret menu at a restaurant. The menu exists. The apps are excellent. But nobody hands you the menu. You have to know to ask for it."

    Thanks to the nationwide T-Mobile outage that just happened, I am now forced to deliver my first child on the side of a highway in Rhode Island. Our Waze app disconnected halfway through the ride to the nearest hospital. Please pray for my wife and I on a safe delivery.

    @hippyygoat Negative jurisdiction is in America you can sue WAZE contract for attempting to subvert jurisdiction. As jurisdiction in held were the issue took place.

    @scumbagdotdll @Molaau6 It's worth using today. Some QoL features were added, like cop call outs aren't possible if the reporting user is stationary; requires 2-3 repeats to validate; etc. Honestly, it seems like cops prefer Waze these days because people slow tf down and it's less tickets that they have to write. Less interaction with the public = less opportunity for incident.

    @BuckeyeEmpire Waze gives you at least half a mile to slow to 73 and look for the *******. Use it.
