I'm not 100% sure what the destination platform was that was only 20% the AWS cost. Digital Ocean? A "myriad of other SaaS platforms"? Self-hosted in a colo datacenter somewhere? How does this newer solution scale? What are the intangible costs, and are there additional staff considerations? Do you answer the pager at 2AM when a physical piece of hardware goes down?
What proprietary video/image formats does Google have? As far as I know all their image and video formats are open, including WebP. Heck, according to Wikipedia JPEG XL was also partly driven by Google.
But we know Elon plans to slim staff down a lot; that this is a true change in management. Given that, it's not too surprising to see him draw some lines with ugly consequences on the wrong side of them since he's already said, in effect, that he doesn't need most of these engineers for the product he's planning.

Twitter is not a healthy product or work culture from what I can gather; and large changes in personnel, or the demise of companies, are the only ways we know to genuinely change lousy cultures at companies. Just sending a memo doesn't do it. The economy as a whole is harsh; not always as sudden, but often still more harsh. That's because killing companies is the only reliable way we have of changing company culture. It's capitalism's secret sauce.
I don’t know. Fuckin slander, ask me.
Expression of interest due in about 2 hours.
Unrelated- but I think Elon is going the way of Trump and Kanye to being cancelled or his businesses being doomed. All the goodwill he had as the underdog at Tesla, he's throwing away with his "I'm better than you, I'm here to save you, Nothing I say will hurt me cos I'm invincible and people love me" complex.
Moderating content, while mundane is valid and valuable experience, not only in the technology aspects but in the human skills that you'd find in any sort of consumer relations focused career.

Hopefully people would choose wisely and at least try to have some feel of a community before deciding to take on moderation duties
No, I rate limit everything by default (per IP address, via a few nftables rules), until the user logs in, at which point I add the IP address to a whitelist. I also run SIP on non-default port and use SRV records to point the client to the right port. Helps with blind IP scans.

I don't really like the fail2ban approach.

Is that really what the problem boils down to? Or how it was decided? Or are you just questioning a common meme that comes up in internet debates about car AI?

"We take the Opera out of Space Opera"?

I quit watching after several episodes because it devolved into High School level drama of who is fucking you and totally unwarrented flip-flops every episode of people being loyal, betraying, hating someone then in love with them etc. And (mostly) starbuck screaming, crying then totally forgetting she was overacting in the next scene. It was simplistic, base, boring and not sci-fi. It was "drama" aka soap-opera.
I don't know whether they keep checking. I signed up then backed out wanting to let enough time pass to judge which such companies were legit legit. I'm pretty sure they insisted on two factor identification.
Kind of similar, but I was thinking of replacing them with team assistants (a kin to PAs or secretaries) for teams. This is nothing but just renaming the current roles except that it takes the connotation of a manager being better, more experienced or more jiggly valued than rest of the team. Perhaps that'd work?
Fun fact! EVs use powerline networking for vehicle<->charger communication. Since multiple chargers and cars might share the same circuit (and L2 network), in order to identify the connected car's network endpoint, they've invented a "sounding" protocol to determine the physically closest network node based on signal strength.

Read ISO 15118 for more details. Here's a paper where they built a sniffer and explore the protocol: https://www.sstic.org/media/SSTIC2019/SSTIC-actes/v2g_inject...

I skim-read it but couldn't find an example of what I think as challenging: a join of 3 tables (well, even two).

When you join 3 tables (assuming has many and "has many through" relationships), what you get back is enormous rows and multiple rows, all of this in tabular form, but in the software is usually represented as a graph.
I'd love a library that helps building back these massive rows into relationships.

Please forgive me if your library does this, while I saw the "mapping function", I didn't see anything to help me build back graphs. I can map rows "easily", but I cannot recreate associations easily, it requires a bunch of work.
This style of management of software/product teams fills me full of confidence on using autopilot.
You buy access on a network that doesn't block those things, if you want a network that doesn't block those things.
Sadly, that’s the worst way to actually design the system. I’d rather have two different technologies working together, with different failure modes. Not using radar (especially in cars that are already equipped) might make economic sense to Tesla, but I’d feel safer if visual processing was used WITH radar as opposed to instead of radar.

I also expect an automated system to be better than the poor human in the drivers seat.
> Now employees are fearing that layoffs will begin before November 1st, when a significant percentage of them are set to receive stock grants paid out in cash at $54.20 a share. Shortly after this story was published, Musk tweeted “This is false” in response to a tweet featuring another story claiming that the layoffs would happen before that date.

Side question, but real question -- how do stock grants in a non-publicly traded company work, who can you sell them to how to turn them into monetary value?

And for your requirement, actually carefree-creator is built to be a stand-alone backend server, so you can indeed customize your own frontend if you like, as I mentioned here (the first point): https://github.com/carefree0910/carefree-creator/issues/11#i...

And if you are interested in customizing carefree-creator itself (like integrating your fancy model into it), I haven't written any documentation yet, but here are some brief guides: https://github.com/carefree0910/carefree-creator/issues/8#is...

From the "just looking in the store windows" perspective, it looks to be a place that people are self promoting their content that is hosted elsewhere.

For the purpose of article discovery, Hacker News or /r/programming or /r/java has a closer alignment to that. The times I do go to twitter, I'm after engaging with content there.

What is the point of it being expensive? Seems easier to log into your brokerage account if you want to remind yourself you can afford expensive things.
Assuming Karpathy is lying is quite a hot take to disregard his opinion.

No. He makes it clear that he is very convinced about it. There is no relativism, no weasel words or couching in maybes. He could be wrong, of course, but he believes in what he is saying.
I sure hope there’s something in this that identifies sensitive fields. Are they going to read everyone’s SSN and credit card information? Wtf is this?

> I think all roofs should be mandated to have solar panels installed, as a start, and all new builds should have proper insulation.

I have good news for you: New construction has been required to have significant insulation in most jurisdictions for a very long time. The insulation requirements have steadily increased over the years, too.

States like California are already requiring new construction to have infrastructure to enable solar panel installation.
The deadline thing sounds awful at first but to be honest given that features at Twitter seemed to have no SRIs, commitments or goals, it seems it's pushing on that direction
Inverted, being an owner/user of autopilot makes me confident in the outcome of this new software endeavor.
Yes I'm starting to understand a little more and I agree with you in broad strokes. But I guess to parley with 'society' requires some degree of compromise. Casting your own ego into the mix might be self correcting on societies part (maybe not formally); if you impose yourself without effacing anything, like a hapless lover in a one-sided relationship, you stand to lose all of it, if you're pushing and pulling without giving. That's how I see it, as a matter of practicality.

However the more nuanced point, something maybe deeper, about society, reminds me of Weil's 'Great Beast'. In a way I'm offering a redemptive hermitdom, and that's why I thought your response was hard to parse (blame me, because my question could either be seen as childishly naive or a handshake from one acolyte to another).

My conception of hermitdom isn't cursed or evil or self-destructive necessarily, and I was poking at the parent commentor a little to see if they might think the same way. Weil is probably hitting at the core of the issue with more resolution that I could ever hope to achieve:

> Relationship breaks its way out of the social. It is the monopoly of the individual. Society is the cave. The way out is solitude. ... To relate belongs to the solitary spirit. No crowd can conceive relationship: "This is good or bad in relation to..." "in so far as ..." That escapes the crowd. A crowd cannot add things together. One who is above social life returns to it when he wishes; not so one who is below. It is the same with everything.
Even though the risks are high the outcomes will always keep them honest. Whether they like it or not.

This isn't like Facebook continually releasing a product that sucks but people will use anyway.

Tesla is constantly working against the clock and everything they do has real world consequences. There are multiple gov agencies watching over it at all times. Of course there's lots of people with far higher risk tolerance than is being exhibited but if it does turn out badly IRL this will get shut down pretty quickly.

The good news is Tesla has the ability to cripple this feature remotely without a costly/lengthy recall if that does happen.
WTF!? Jpeg xl was looking awesome, with lots of community interest: https://jpegxl.info/

This sucks.

> - There is not enough interest from the entire ecosystem to continue experimenting with JPEG XL

Might as well have just fired them. There’s no way a feature like that can get released in most companies on that timeline, even without the scale issues.
So it wasn't at a professional level, but I had an Apple ][+ when I was 13, taught myself BASIC and 6502 assembler. Yeah, no one had a hard drive at the time, if I recall. I got good enough at assembler to be able to hack Sensible Speller to bypass the copy-protection call and be able to copy with a normal disk copy. I also won a couple two-liner "contests", which was to write something interesting within 2 lines of input, which maxed out at 256 characters. One for Beagle Bros. (who were the coolest software company around back then) and one for Nibble magazine.

As for source control, I would not be acquainted with that term till a decade later. There was one time that I was writing a program in Apple Pascal (also self-taught) for 17 hours straight--and then the frickin machine FROZE! Hard lesson learned, that I've generally never allowed to happen again.

Yeah, that was mid-late 80s and basically knew more that the teachers how things worked on those computers.
> …you will need to pick a point at which you say further fatality reduction is no longer justified given the economic cost of achieving it.

You're right — the sad truth is that corporations put costs on human lives every day. Where I think we disagree is that you believe they made the decision based primarily on costs. After watching this video, I believe they made the decision because they didn't think they could reliably implement and support a sensor fusion approach.

(BTW, I enjoyed "stupidifying"! I'm sorry I made people stupider.)
This is pure gold. The basic premise of many of those episode ideas at the top turned into actual episodes.
The new thing is that the owner of Twitter is pushing misinformation. He bought it so it's his problem now. It's correct that he's blamed for it.
Good point. I'm not sure why I thought what I'd written above worked... shrug
It really depends on what your goals are. If you enjoy the process of taking a picture, and using manual camera controls - then you will surely have a different viewpoint.

For me, photography is not about being an expert camera operator, its about efficiency, and how productive I can be to create an image that I have visualized in my head. I care more about the final result than the process. Personally, I am welcoming the new AI/ML based focusing systems which can be trained to automatically put the focusing point on the subject. I don't think I can ever go back to the optical view finder and dslrs.
I think the benchmark they have to hit is not be significantly out-done by anyone else. As long as they aren't their status is sort of self-sustaining. Kind of like with diamonds. You could make fakes, that look just as pretty, but that isn't enough, because while looking pretty is important it's only part of what diamonds offer. What could perhaps threaten them is synthetic diamonds made more perfect and beautiful, and then carved so intricately that they end up costing a fortune, marketed as a luxury ethical diamond (because it's verifiable not a blood diamond).

I also knew him from then, back in my days of administering thousands of macs, his roles were a godsend.

Now I see him here all the time doing cool stuff with Pis and drives. I hope I bump into him one day, as our interests heavily cross, and he seems like a really nice guy.
Well indeed, if by ‘developer’ you mean (software) engineer. Engineering is vastly different from the mere coding.
Speaking of Karl Marx, he made the exact same prediction as this paper does, only he did it a century and a half ago ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tendency_of_the_rate_of_profit... )
Mastodon vs. Twitter
It's certainly not straightforward. You know how 90% of crashes occur within whatever many miles of home? People don't use autopilot while they're cruising around their suburbs or cities.

Companies would have to disclose not just their accidents, but also how much driving is done in different places. Then all those places would have to be compared or at least categorized. Its complex enough that there would definitely not be a straightforward, obviously-correct way to interpret it all.

Since companies do not disclose where self-driving occurs, the whole thing is a complete nonstarter. It's whatever they choose to disclose.
Have you ever thought for a second that you can’t trust the media? Or trust the word of a disgruntled employee who’s just trying to give a black eye to the employer who is about to let him/her go? It pretty funny watching the posts coming across this and other platforms thinking the world is ending because Elon comes out and says he’s going to make twitter balanced instead blatantly left leaning.
> I notice that Musk is spending his time tweeting that it is possible Paul Pelosi was attacked by his gay lover, so it's not looking good.

I don't have twitter, and this narrative seems like the work of 4chan (4 the lulz), but it's true he really was hinting at this [0] being the case.

I just hope this cesspool dies already, it seems liek an echo chmaber for the most feeble minded. I was catching up on the all in podcasts (missed 3 weeks worth) and the amount of servile rhetoric for Elon from those 4 is absurdly out of touch with reality given his actions--it's clear he was forced to overpay for something that has little utility in the grand-scheme of things--henc why Dorsey walked away. If this is to be successful, perhaps this tech apocalypse will start the demise of these platform's and will have less relevance from this point onward.

But, I feel that he is doing what he is best at: Marketing. His tactics to bring in ad revenue are the same that cable news has with polemic based click-bait but that sad reality is that he has a legion of simps to dog-whistle to keep it afloat.

To be fair, that's an improvement over, say, Twitter, where they'd just be gone.

I think they meant hijacking in the sense that they read his search on another site. So they’re either scanning the page loads, or reading your keystrokes, or something that is sending the data back to Google.

I don't think interpreting the lidar data and integrating it is a super-tough problem, it kinda comes in 3D, unlike stereoscopic vision. So I take it this means that the Lidar data rarely differed and it rarely mattered when it did.

Elon's companies have a long history of handling complexity very well (even, you know, actual rocket science) precisely because they relentlessly simplify everything they can. Raptor one is more complex that Raptor two, but I'll take the latter any day. Nobody else has a full-flow rocket engine. Many previous attempts were swallowed by the complexity of the task. Even Raptor one looks like a rat's nest - but unlike other attempts, it worked.

Tesla's manufacturing margins are far out in front of any other car company (see David Lee On Investing podcast.) Having simpler, larger parts made by much larger pressing machinery is a big part of why. Looks like they are (now) handling the complexity of manufacturing very well.
Sexist maybe, not misogynistic.
I mean... something can always get released. I would imagine few people who don't get fired on Nov 7th are going to be around in another two months anyway though, who wants to work under such treatment in a job market like this? (Unless you're hoping for some kind of vesting of something I guess?)
Musk is also famously against using lidar. He doesn't understand/accept that an autonomous vehicle needs any sensors that humans do not posess.
I'm a twitter "heavy user" - logging in daily and tweeting > 4x per week. Users like me make up 10% of users, but 90% of tweets.

I've been a heavy user X 15 years and I'm still not a blue check. I perceive no benefit in being verified and I doubt being verified would have/will change my experience as a user.

If they verified me for FREE I wouldn't care. $20/month to be verified on a site controlled by a maniac in the process of making the product unusable? No way.

After 3 days of Musk's ownership I'm already half-way out. As soon as these paid options are rolled out I will gladly be gone from the platform forever.
I run a Jellyfin server, but I also run a Plex server for my non tech friends or friends already invested in Plex. You can have both.
"When I ask GCs and tradespeople which job they would would never do themselves, drywall is far and away the most common answer."

Electrician is the answer I usually get, largely because if you do electricity wrong, you can kill yourself or burn down the house.
The main one, perceiving successful people and material success as not being bad/morally unacceptable. I would have said 15 years ago it's really specific to growing up in Russia or the like, but I think it's getting more and more relevant in the current zeitgeist in the USA. That material success means a person is probably some sort of a criminal, a swindler or at the very least got lucky, is the general sentiment in Russia, and to be fair in the 90ies and even more so in Soviet times it was... more justified than in most modern societies.

However, aside from being mostly false, it's a really harmful and useless mindset. I actually changed my mind via a circuitous route, by reading some self-help book (I don't even remember why I would have done that, very unlike me then) and getting way into GTD/self-help/lifehacker for a year or so. After course correction back into sanity, I was left with an implementation of GTD that works for me, a real job, and generally a much healthier perception of work and success. It did wonders both in my actual life but also made me way happier. Combined with, from my anti-social times, still not caring too much about status symbols and such. It's great.

Second and weirder, and much later, one, is (mostly) embracing absurdism/nihilism. For a long time after I realized there's no god, I couldn't fully accept humanism cause it seemed arbitrary, so the fact that life has no intrinsic meaning whatsoever really disturbed me. I wonder if this is the stage of irreligion where people who don't just ignore the question get into ideologies and spiritual woo... if you don't do that, there's almost like a semi-dark valley you have to cross when you know intellectually life is utterly meaningless, but you haven't really internalized it so you keep looking for meaning. If you get stuck there, you will probably be less happy than you would be otherwise, but if you keep going you come out on the other side much happier and without brain fog of looking for "meaning". I wouldn't claim I came ALL the way thru, but definitely a ways.
