Hi there, assume that you have an idea for a plugin for text editors (or IDEs), but you don't want to mess up with the specifics of Sublime's API or Atom's API. Is there any higher level API that would help me abstract away from Vim's, Emacs' or IntelliJ's APIs?

I'm not looking for specially fancy features, so it should be possible. However, I don't know if I'm looking the right keywords.

I've been a "Google" guy since I started using the Internet. Gmail, Android, Drive and Google Photos. I even have a G Suite account (the legacy, free one).

However, I'm frustrated with some problems that I have had and specifically the fact that it was absolutely impossible to reach anyone. Also, I have read some horror stories about losing data and other problems.

So, my question is: if I migrate from Google to Apple (phone, photos...), which I don't know exactly what's the best way to do it and it will be painful, will I be able to talk to a human from Apple support? Assuming I would buy an iPhone and even pay for an iCloud subscription.

"Apple guys" from HN, if you have a problem with iCloud, for instance, can you easily talk to a human? What's your experience?

I've read many times something along the lines of "Tesla has an advantage in autonomous cars because they have the data of thousands of customers, which implies millions of miles".

However, I can't find any source detailing whether Tesla is actually using customer data for training (and not only for debugging).

If so, where does the computation happen? Locally? Then, are Tesla chips ready for training? Did they mention that when unveiling FSD hardware)? How do they sync/integrate/debug that data/training? Otherwise, if the training is done at Tesla, how they transfer gigabytes of data?

Also, wouldn't that be a perfect case for imitation learning?

And is it legal to use customer data that way?

Is it possible that FSD is "secretly" ready for training?

Thanks!
