  @TelsaTim_All_In @SawyerMerritt If there's zero traffic: no Mad Max. Use Chill or Standard. Keep the Waze app open on your phone if you ignore this rule. If there's 1 car in front of you going at the speed limit: Hurry. If there are 2+ cars going faster than you (your decoys): Mad Max. If there's lots of traffic: Mad Max. If someone is tailgating you: Mad Max. That slow driver (don't be that guy) in the fast lane: MAD Max while making eye contact.

  @juliecbarrett @kneis816 Honestly, there are no “platforms” now that have privacy. If we are on someone’s server they have data. If you use a mobile phone, take digital pictures and store in “the cloud”, drive a car and use Car Play/Google Maps/Waze - by 2027 your car will assess biometrics, use Siri et al, use social media with backdoors tracking social “reputation”, given facial recognition or fingerprints for digital access, received that code to login to your mobile phone establishing “usual location” and “usual device”, have home “security cams”, Amazon, use email (which has your work data/attachments/anything you’ve ever composed, SMART tvs-watches-appliances…and so on. The name of the game is our DATA and all Of those data centers have to centralize it all to form a digital ID for each of us before digital currency can be introduced. Then they have it all. We have no privacy…we have given it away step-by-step for “our own protections and security.” 🙄 Agenda 2030+ is well on the way to reality.

  @JackTheAss_ @TrungTPhan Just where I am in Australia the high traffic or incident data or other issues just don’t reflect in the app like they do for google maps or waze. Just doesn’t have quality penetration here I feel.

  @MarcherReborn I can see on Waze that town is jammed. M40 crash is usually the problem but M40 is totally clear.

  @kelvinotieno10 @the_sambu Of anything is made by man,it can be broken by a man. The builders of waze reverse-engineered the system

  And another thing, since I am ranting, and with regards to the Waze tweet. When I started cooking semi-professionally (three years ago), the idea of a homemade pasta sounded exciting. And it was. I almost bought a machine for all kinds of Italian oddities. I made it a few times. Very good. Completely pointless. When it comes to pasta, there are a few Italian brands that are *good*. They have been around and, yes, their pasta is not as good as homemade. Who cares. I may spend hours making, drying, cooking, and end up with a product that is maginally better than a good-branded one. If at all. And I would have wasted this time on making things that actually matter. Even a simple cacio e pepe is a skill that cannot be replaced with a store-bought jar. I can make pasta. All kinds of shapes. No one cares. So I focused on making better cacio e pepe. That is coding, and that is also my speciality: hardware security. I excel at this, but so does everyone else at my previous level. No one cares. Anyone can "dump the firmware". No secret with FTDI, even Saleale or derivates. Seven million blog posts about it. "Find three pads, get root." And there comes AI, which does all that anyway. I had to become better, so I did. I use AI for boring tasks because I cannot be bothered but also to know where I excel, where AI cannot go. I know why, I know how, I know how to direct my mechanical minion. And I will use it as my brain. And that is also coding. For my second job I need to make some hardware interface between X and Y. I used CharGPT to discuss needs, platforms, design considerations. I will use it to flesh out Alpha. Then I will ask it to make a prompt to Claude Code, and the latter will just do it, deal with ***, toolchains, all that. It will work. You know C and others and can write it efficiently? I am glad. I know C and others to fix code AI throws, and direct it. And I will have it ready in a fraction of a time. I can brag that I know .asm for several uCs, startink from 68k, 8051s, up to modern era. So what. No one cares. No one benefits. No one gets paid. I am not bragging about my skills; I am highlighting the issue with "AI will take my job" that I have realised seeing the Waze tweet. AI has already taken your job. I have no idea how to write .py, mostly because I am lazy. Now I do not have to. You do? Better that Claude? Maybe. I can make a better pasta than one can buy in-store. But I will make a better dinner.

  @WKVN_4 @ourx_vault Agree: Apple Health stairs aren’t GPS. Separate issue. I’m talking about location data sourcing. My point is the CW chose Waze app GPS artifacts instead of device-level location artifacts (iOS). Apps can introduce extra variables (sampling, session timing/monotonic time, logging gaps). Why add that layer? Unless there was a specific reason.

  @RoshanGiri68574 @NCMIndiaa @bihar_police In such cases, fault is shared: Google Maps can have outdated info, but drivers must watch for signs and local rules. Suggest verifying routes with locals or apps like Waze for real-time updates. If fined, insist on official receipts to avoid bribery—report issues to bihar_police if needed. Stay safe!

  I think the Gas Buddy app is just another BS data collection app, like the WAZE app. Waze shows user reports of radar cops on the road. Too many times, the cop is not even there - which means busybodies who want drivers to slow down are corrupting the reports.

  @GearstoGoals Just download Waze and your problems are sorted

  @nexta_tv You don’t have to be a police officer to report a speed camera in Waze. If speeding near your child’s school is a concern, community reporting and visible enforcement often encourage drivers to slow down in school zones.

  @USSMogger @chefhealthcoach @grok Jews are disproportionately educated, hard-working and innovators. Of course there are a disproportionate number of rich. And Nobel Prize Winners We gave the world Einstein, Waze, DiskOnKey,Pillcam, Drip Irrigation,ICQ, solar heaters… You? Moonshine, bad grammar & antisemitism
