I do not know how legal this is (Interstate Commerce), but glad to see this happening. I tend to think this is OK since the Federal does the same with Highway Funds.
My wife's 2022 Chevy Suburban excluded both radar-distancing cruise control and also parking sensors.

It is very annoying, but Tesla is not the only one that has had to make these compromises. At least Tesla is trying to solve the same problem, Chevy dealership says they will "eventually" be able to retrofit (ha...). They do still have rearview cameras and a front windshield.
If you're running a diesel vehicle, all you need is a tank in your shed (for ~1000€ [1]) and an inverter powered by your car's 12V battery to run the pump. Assuming your vehicle is barely efficient (10 l / 100km), a full tank load is enough to last you for 10.000km.

Electric vehicles are a bit harder, but even there, it's possible to install enough solar panels and battery storage to last virtually infinitely.

Disaster resilience is easy to achieve, if a bit expensive if you're going on a "full societal breakdown" scenario. No matter what, unless you're a grain farmer with storage, you're running out of food way before running out of transportation.

Wonder if he did it on purpose as a way to fix the price.
Right, for a human, presumably it would be easier to go ahead and learn the language. But that begs the question.

We already know LLMs tokenize words, so they have definitely generated and stored such a table. The marvelous step forward from previous word-based solutions is that they store not just single words, not just pairs of words, but larger sequences of words, even up to short sentence length. It makes the table pretty large, as you suggest, but that's exactly we've been seeing, and each generation of GPT is that much larger than the one before.

Probably someone bought one. They are littered all over the world. The Finnish ex president's son in law bought one and it sank while being towed to be a tourist attraction. Another was sold to a Canadian business man and towed to USA, also used as a movie prop. The 90's were a crazy time.

My guess is they can make more money off a subscription, and it's easier to develop and deploy a web application with a subscription model.
I’m not a major Google shareholder, but if I were I would fire the management. I’ve never heard of such a large company itemizing an expense as trivial as staplers.

GPUs can do LZ4 decompression. So you could still save ~50% PCIe bandwidth and a bunch of CPU time with these formats... but not VRAM, since (unlike BC7) its still a raw bitmap in memory.

Apparently modern GPUs losslessly compress textures in memory by themselves, but the only info I can find is that this is proprietary AMD/Nvidia/Intel voodoo magic.
There are many projects on GitHub which have been abandoned or archived, current developer does not have time to maintain it. you can find projects which interests you and work on it.

I have a concept called Fosstercare, where I planned to support Free and OSS software which people are using to be supported. but I could not pursue then, but with the advent of GPT4 and AutoGPT it makes sense to revive the idea again.
100%, tons of kinks but at least for me it was still the best EV on the market for what I wanted. If I did not need the range/size I think I would have gone with a newer model Leaf.
Same should said to Apple.

They release new API but they "forgot" to test when website is added to home screen (PWA).

New API passes feature detection but does not work in PWA.

iOS and macOS Safari have different bugs also...

So you have to sniff user agent and other things to find out broken iOS versions and hardcode workarounds...

I hear you, and that's why I bought a Librem 5 as well. Since it finally arrived like five (plus?) years later, I haven't yet spent enough time to settle in with it. But I hate my Android phone, and would like to eventually.

Still, I wish we could get better hardware and the software support definitely still has growing to do. And I understand those who feel like it's not a viable option for them yet, but do want to switch in the future— because that's kinda where I'm still at myself, even though I have one of those devices.

At least in the American version of Solaris I felt like it asked if what we “know” or remember about a person is real / enough to make a person / how much we can even know…. and by extension what we really know about anything.

And regarding the character in the end who chooses to simply live with those memories/ ghosts created by his memory… maybe he isn’t any different than the rest of us.

I totally agree that route optimization takes on a whole different dimension now! For our early models and numbers, we're just benchmarking no change in route of speed, to really highlight the baseline benefits of sails. However, there are tremendous knock-on effects that would give you an advantage to follow the wind. We can make use of not only improved forecasting, but better satellite weather data and connectivity to ships to provide updates in real time. Altogether, there will be a lot of performance on the table that ships can take advantage of in the future.
A self destruct doesn't need to blow up the entire ballon and airframe. It could just fry the key electronics in place and turn them into slag. You'd also imagine that there'd be some sort of dead mans switch so if remote access was jammed or if somehow the US was able to capture it intact, that whatever destruct mechanism would trigger.
>the CEO takes the fall, and announces that this was the plan all along. Software would replace the sensors

That's the opposite of taking the fall.

Plus Tesla serves customers who don't want a silly crossover -- most other brands are only making EV crossovers. If you want a smaller car you don't have very many choices, and most of them cost more (e.g. Porsche Taycan, the Audi version of the Taycan).

This is probably a product of where you are. I see plenty of actual EVs in a lot of shapes and sizes and from what I can tell, price ranges. (Not actually in the market for a car, so I'm unsure of any sizes). Of course, I'm in Norway and there are many electric cars on the road and they've been building the infrastructure for them - and the mix of brands available and what brands are cheaper than others would vary quite a bit from, say, the US.
It seems the future plans (short and long-term) are already outlined in the README itself.

- Ease of deployment and management are central goals of Hocus, with minimal assumptions made about the underlying OS and hardware.
- Hocus should provide a native development experience with performance on par with bare-metal development.
- Hocus should be scalable to accommodate large teams, with support for thousands of users and heavyweight repositories. We're not there yet.

Roadmap

- Add basic single node support
- Optimize single node storage usage, performance, and reliability
- Add permissioning for teams, admins, and regular users
- Add multi-node support
- Add support for more IDEs, particularly JetBrains
Maybe hold out for Asahi Linux? Patience is a skill that can pay big dividends.

Thats only true outside of the US though. iOS is >60% in the USA.
"vanilla kubernetes" isn't a distribution either.

> Kubernetes and k3s are both container orchestration platforms

Your article makes it seem like k3s and k8s are different platforms which is simply incorrect.

A more useful comparison would have been to compare k3s with another distribution like EKS, GKE, OKD etc.
Do you happen to know if this can be used as more or less a drop-in replace for pandas in Python? (Presuming, I suppose data conversion prior.)
It's a parking sensor. How many parking garages are textureless walls? Borrowing phrasing from the grandparent: "promise the impossible" may indeed be bad marketing, but "demand the needless and infeasible" is at least as much a problem here. Everything, everything about Tesla has to be some kind of existential argument about how This One Thing Proves Everything I Hate. And.. it's still just a parking sensor.

Meh. I have the sonar equipment in my car and it works nicely, and I'd view its removal as a mild loss. But it wouldn't have changed the purchase decision. It's a technical mistake, and at the margins will probably hurt them in sales.

But there's nothing here to justify the size of the thread we're spending on it. It's a parking sensor.
> Language without formalization is unreliable; in any critical domain, clarity is not optional. Law, maths, code.

That's the purpose of plugins/LangChain. For deterministic tasks, don't use an LLM.

Whatever you use for process orchestration should be able to make use of the LLM where it's a good fit and something else where it's not.

> you need the abilities to a) efficiently instruct them without wasting tokens

Plain old brevity. There's no need for semicolons and parentheses and the level of punctiliousness that a formal language imposes.

> b) interpret their outputs according to the structure required downstream.

You can include downstream structure in your prompt. Still no need to design a language for it. LLMs understand imperatives like "structure your output like this."
Most people complaining about bugs are unaware that the issue got solved 15-20 years ago. They just keep repeating the same thing over and over and over.
This is solidly mad. In a car, you have the opportunity for the perfect collaboration of hardware and software - computer vision is great if all you have is a rubbish PC webcam as the lowest common denominator, but when you control the hardware, why on earth would you give up sensors that give you actual depth calculations!?!
"parallax fails to detect it"

AFAIK, pretty much none of the driverless systems are using parallax. The reason why not is that parallax only gives good depth information at most up to about 10 feet. Disparity mapping is pretty limited in real life.

Instead they get depth from video.

I'd imagine in almost every situation the car would cast a shadow to that featureless wall. Although Tesla might not have a camera placed to a right spot to actually see that shadow...
> FWIW, macs are high quality and last a long time.

I agree with you, but that doesn’t change the fact outside the US, many Apple products are 15+% more expensive than they were a few years ago. In the UK we’re in the middle of a cost of living crisis—my bills have shot up and I simply don’t have the extra disposable income.

I mean shit, I’m a decently paid developer (for the north of the UK, so not London) and until my most recent rise a base 16” MacBook Pro cost almost an entire month’s take-home salary.
Whatever you want to call it, and whatever it means to you, it must be done in some way, like it or not. Or you can sit here and complain everyone's using the big name that sucks and nobody uses your superior 100% artisinally, crafted from free-range conflict-free code, ethically "superior" app.

Yes, it is. But you don't have to take my word for it.

Ouch. Sorry to hear that. I remember speaking with colleagues in various parts of the US (mostly Seattle and Silicon valley areas) and I was shocked by how expensive and relatively low quality internet and mobile connections compared to most of western Europe. I guess having de-facto cartels in AT&T, Verizon, ... that don't encroach in each other territory is a terrible thing
Log Explorer Using OpenAI – Part 1
Coincidentally started reading Solaris 2 weeks ago. About 60% in and really enjoying it. Love stories with novel sci-fi ideas and this one tackles a pretty interesting one. Would appreciate recommendations by the same author or other stories.

Other stories that I really liked because I had not thought about those ideas before are: Diaspora (Greg Egan), Permutation City (Greg Egan), Dark Universe (daniel galouye), Three Body Problem series (Cixin Liu)
Capitalizing Intel in this title probably isn't the correct thing to do for an abbreviated headline. In my head I had an image of the balloon stealing Intel CPUs from military sites.

Spicy is technically not a taste, and our taste buds don't process spicy the same way other tastes are processed. It's instead a low level of pain sensation, which we interpret as a flavor when mixed with other "real" flavors. The same nerves which sense the spicy pain sensation also sense touch and heat, so the latter is probably why we associate spicy foods with a feeling of hotness. This is probably why spicy sensations can overrun other tastes so easily, because our bodies' pain reactions are very strong.
x86 is the past, but ARM is proprietary. RISC-V is the open source answer (there is SPARC but it's much older and never gained enough traction + Power/PowerPC became open source too but it's also not a modern ISA)

"I feel that the majority of relationships and marriages say 60-70 years ago were happy and mutually fulfilling, but now anecdotally it seems that most people are not happy whatsoever."

It's possible this is true. But here's a little anecdote. 70 years ago is 1953. The American sitcom "Happy Days", produced in 1973, makes this era look great. I know British writer Alan Moore has said he's seen the TV show Happy Days, and things in Britain in his childhood were nothing like "Happy Days". The country was struggling with how the world had changed post World War 2.

I imagine Japan was going through some serious stuff as well.
Yeah, that film is Stalker (and boy is it boring)
> Unlimited PTO is a scam.

People who think of their time off in terms of monetary value often see it that way, but if the problem you're trying to solve is less like "how to I maximize the value I accrue from this job" and more like "how can I make time for all the things I want to do with my life", doing away with the nickel-and-diming scarcity feeling which comes from rationing out and accounting for a limited number of PTO days can make it much easier to actually use and enjoy time away from work.
It was deaded, I vouched, and now I'm attempting to reply.

Edit: looks like it worked. (The comment was absolutely dead 4 minutes after it was submitted when I vouched.)

Oh I'm dumb. "On the off chance it gets vouched." My bad.
Lex Friedman with an E
to quote:

an ordinance making San Francisco the first city to ban travel to states with repressive anti-LGBT laws OR contract with businesses headquartered there.

I don't know, I always see people on HN complaining about poorly written articles and stuff so I figured I could do it as well.

At any rate it would require unfamiliarity with the U.S to think that a city could ban travel for citizens to other parts, but it is not clear exactly how travel is banned thus one has to read between the lines and assume - must be travel for government agencies - going off of this particular line "the travel element makes some intuitive sense; you do not want to send city employees, who may be LGBT, to places where their rights or their significant others’ rights can be impinged upon. "

Not hard to do for someone that knows anything about the country or has a high degree of proficiency in English, but on the other hand this being the internet there might be people who don't know or have that proficiency and would thereby draw the wrong conclusion.

There's a fine line when it comes to AI. On one hand it's not great that OpenAI/MS/MJ get to decide what is okay and what isn't okay. On the other hand without filters, the possibility for misinformation, spam and inciting violence/drama/frustration is high since the cost to create tons of garbage is so low.

I'm more worried about AI supercharged bait-click content than GPT-5 singularity.
> If there would be no open source, people would pay for libraries.

Nonsense. The cost of creating non-trivial software (say, 20+ dependencies, all needing payment) would put software out of the reach of ordinary people, meaning that there will only be a small niche of developer jobs.

Which means that most people making a non-zero income from writing software today would have been making a zero income from writing software in your hypothetical alternate universe.

There's a lot of butterfly-effect type results as well - due to how capitalism works, the majority of people who are capable of writing software would never be able to compete - whoever the bug players are, they could simply buy them out, shut them down or even product-dump.

FOSS levels the field somewhat: FOSS is a force multiplier, in that whatever FOSS creates can be used to create more software (even non-FOSS), reducing the dependency on one or two incumbents who were lucky enough to get there first and cornered the market.

Without FOSS, we'd all be running IE6 on Windows 98, because there'd be no competition.
They weren't calling for drama:

> Maybe I should have contested it but I was and still am going through a pretty rough patch in my life and just didn't have the willpower to start any drama. Mostly I think it sucks because IMO the worse technical solution got merged because their PR had a more flashy title.

>That's when I realized what was happening. So whatever, I did what she asked, left her discord and tried to forget about it.

>I really don't want to start any drama so I'll just say that I wrote the code in my commits.

No one claiming to be that user said anything derogatory or ever called for drama. You're making hollow accusations, basically: "Your messages were intermingled among bad comments" "some other users said bad things," "do you denounce you ever gave your side of the story?"

And I'd certainly consider it distancing yourself from the conversation when you close your PR and remain silent when someone essentially steals your code, and goes from "I was co-author" to "my code," "my work," "I did this," "I'm the author" all over Twitter, a bragging PR where she changed the magic number to her initials, etc.

I'm the one "responsible" for noticing this and raising the flag that something isn't right. Code was stolen and the toxic user responsible was taking more and more credit. The community reacted appropriately, on the whole, as did the owner of the project in banning the plagiarist. She's free to add her side of the story, of course. This issue was actually raised with her on Twitter twice and she ignored it, before it made its way to Github. To the extent that drama was caused by this, it's wholly the fault of the person who created this situation with her unethical behavior and intentionally misleading statements.

Of course no one can verify if that user is the same one in the 4chan threads. It's 4chan. But the commit history speaks for itself, and is well-documented by now.

None of this is an excuse for derogatory terms or slurs to be used on 4chan (or elsewhere), but you're intentionally muddying the waters.
This is not accurate. Most cars that have 360/top down views still have parking sensors. Tesla has just been steadily removing features to increase profit margins.

Truth be told yes that tricky but can be managed with ansible easily for instance.

1) Your main problem though would probably be the need for a haproxy or bgp which does load balancing for you. There are other solutions like kube-vip but they are more a "failover" solution that HA. Which would be fine for a homelab and is for instance how Rancher Harvester (kubernetes for virtual machines) does it.

2) you have to pass a parameter called --cluster-init for the first node and then join the other nodes. once the cluster is running you dont need any node with that parameter anymore and its common practise to create the first node wiuth --cluster-init then join 3 other ones and take down the first node

And on a personal node, you sound like you would be happy with rancher harvester. check it out its bascially turnkey
