I'm advocating for the user experience because better sleep improves peoples lives, and with our smart connected mattresses it's a measurable improvement. I think we're shipping q2 24 at the latest. Just some kinks to work out- like right now if it loses connection it defaults to a deflated setting because the feedback loops cut out. But these things do work! This is one the funniest posts in forums history.

Obviously it's not that we can't design it to just sit at a static inflation level without a connection. That's trivial. But the point of differentiation from old dumb mattresses is that the inflation, firmness, and bolster levels are constantly monitored and adjusted by AI. That means it needs to phone home so a connection to a remote server is necessary. I've advocated as a UX issue that the default behavior should more closely replicate the normal mattress experience, but it's contentious because the higher-ups think people just won't connect in the first place if they don't have to.

Why the gently caress Do you people care if they connected or not? They bought the loving product. I don't care if people smoke the weed I sell them because Im raking in the dough!!!!!!! Like it's just such bullshit decadence of the text silicon Valley idiot that they literally are going to cause their customers physical pain if they don't use the product in the intended way. Like what the gently caress is wrong with all these startups. This is why they all loving fail. You have to follow all the rules or they torture you with coding. They spend more time jailing your rear end to their expected way of utilizing the product that they end up coming out with an inferior product and no one actually wants to use!!!!!!! YOU FOOLS

Has OP clarified what they do about using the bathroom on days they are sleeping in their car? Like, are they doing the pee in bottles thing, or what?

Perhaps they drilled a hole in the bottom of the trunk. Gotta pee? Just lie on your stomach, aim for the hole, or if the OP has a penis, just stick it in the hole, and go.

Hi OP. I used to live in Silicon Valley, too. Few notes here from someone who left: Go to a loving therapist and live inside your home. You work for an imminently failing company, just from the description, so I'd recommend brushing up your resume and looking elsewhere. Also if you have a 40 minute commute that's like, San Mateo to Mountain View no traffic, so I'm assuming you're counting traffic in. Drive yourself from San Jose to freaking Sunnyvale every day and back home. Shower and poo poo like a normal human and not at your Y-Combinator-backed thoughtleader's rent-a-office. Also this absolutely reads like it's real. Go the gently caress home you Peter Pan weirdo.

Can your magic mattress tell how many times someone has farted and/or poo poo on it? These are important numbers.

It should definitely be able to detect crusty spots and adjust the firmness accordingly. Perhaps the AI algorithm could be trained on exercising those crusty areas by inflating/deflating?

How many hours a week do you work OP? If it’s 40-50 hours a week, then you’re complaining about a 1 hr commute each way every day, so what. If you’re working 70-80 hours a week, then maybe sleeping in your car makes sense. However, if you were pulling heavy hours you should be getting paid handsomely and therefore able to piss $500 a month for gas. Also if you’re a loving bed programmer  that seems like something you could do remote at least partially. You don’t need to lay in the bed to program whatever the gently caress AI hyper algo bed adjustment skynet you claim will improve peoples sleep.
