I wonder if the OBD alternatives mentioned in the article actually work? I'd imagine that they wake up the entire CAN bus frequently, quickly draining the cars 12V battery?

Why use a Powerwall if you could use a better and cheaper inverter battery combination? Just because the app is beautiful?

You can have up to 2000W panels with an inverter up to 800W. Note that the 800W is what you're allowed to produce, not feed in, but it can still be beneficial to overprovision panels because with 800W of panels you won't produce 8

I already moved away from the reddit app, but now I have the problem that I can not set up time-based constraints that don't block the rest of the browser.

The new ChatGPT image generation is insane. It's available on the free tier, just strongly rate limited.

I love using LLMs to generate pictures. I'd call myself rather creative, but absolutely useless in any artistic craft. Now, I can just describe any image I can imagine and get 90% accurate results, which is good enough for the presenta

Why not? Multiple politicians have already mentioned IP as a possible method of retaliation. Also, the goal is to hurt Trump, his voters and his allies. Tech Bro's are Trumps allies nowadays.

The price is not for using it, but for serving ads on it. They'd increase the price for ads that target European customers.

A possible retaliation by the EU could be to not enforce US intellectual property rights in the EU anymore. Or we could start taxing cloud companies, who, until now, have not paid taxes in the EU for profits that they generate in the EU.

Looks like he learned that from Putin, who also surrounded himself with yes-men which lead to him thinking he could take Ukraine in 3 days.

Did you read the page? Because they did give rewards per item produced, and more complex items gave higher rewards.

Depends on time, weekday and which highway. But in general you are correct, which doesn't stop people from claiming that they do and that a 130kph speed limit would be horrible.

The costly thing is the intial writing already. S3 is our cold storage, we don't often read from it. So compaction would only make reading cheaper, but create a writing cost in the process.

Your math is so far off, it isn't even on this planet anymore. In what world does an EV use more than 100kW? It's closer to 20kWh per 100km, so about 20kW on the highway probably. That would make your heater be 5%, not a fraction

As a German, I love how you call 75mph speeding. There is a huge discussion going on in Germany of introducing a 80mph speed limit on the highway and many people claim that that does not work for them as they regularly drive 100mph average.

We use Redis for buffering for a certain timeperiod, and then we write data for one sensor for that period to S3. However we fill up large Redis clusters pretty fast, so we can only buffer for a shortish period.

We tried some readymade options but they were way more expensive than our custom built S3 solution (by a factor of x10 approximately). I think we tried timescale and AWS Timestream. I haven't heard of SeaweedFS.

The problem is that the initial writing is already so expensive, I guess we'd have to write multiple sensors into the same file instead of having one file per sensor per interval. I'll look into parquet access options, if we could

Does anyone have a good alternative for storing large amounts of very small files that need to be individually queriable? We are dealing with a large amount of sensor readings that we need to be able to query on a per sensor basis and a tim

As far as I remember, Apple was planning to detect CSAM, and upload the detected images to the cloud, showing the photos to apple employees. This is not at all comparable to a locally running API that returns something like "{nudity: t

I think the author of the article got a few things wrong. As far as I understood, SafetyCore is not "scanning all your photos". It is an API that apps on your phone CAN use to LOCALLY detect nudity and other potentially inappropri

If I understood the article correctly, the high safety comes from having two ground connections and stopping already if one of them is broken. Your way would mean that if PE breaks, and at the same time contact between some high voltage com

A cheap car costs around 300€ per month (including taxes, repairs, loss of value, etc.), or way more if you drive a lot or if you have a car that is new-ish. I don't think that 4-8 deliveries per month would cost more than 80€ per mont

How unlimited is it, really? How much do people take off in reality? I dislike these "benefits" that no one then dares to use in reality. We have 6 weeks off, and you are literally forced to take them. This basically prevents soci

My partner and I are in the top 20-25% of Germany (looking at combined household income, we earn about the same). Not poor, but not (very) rich as well.
