Chris Lattner, creator of LLVM, clang, and Swift, quit Apple to work at Tesla a few months ago, and has now quit Tesla.

Apparently working for two egomaniacal, ultra-demanding, workaholic CEOs in his career was one too many.

llvm, clang, and swift are all horrible so its not surprising the creator washed out when asked to do something more significant.

none of that is a software problem tho. 1 is a regulatory failure 2 is a design failure and 3 is lawyer poo poo

2) is partly a software failure in that they let the software engineers have too much influence over the design of the controls. a good designer with human factors/ergonomics experience would not have let them get away with "giant ipad controls everything."

but yes, overall i don't think their software is poorly-coded, just mischaracterized (autopilot is not an autopilot) and half-baked (the UX sucks).

I don't think theres any software developer who has the final say on the stupid tablet controls. that's gotta be a management thing.
