Haven't wealthy people spent most of history paying someone else to drive for them? Driving yourself will become like horse riding, something you do on private property for sport rather than transport.

I'm not sure that's a fair comparison. The most expensive part of self driving cars is building the roads and highways. Would make more sense to compare Waymo to the operating expenses of PT, hiring the drivers and maintaining the

The human brain was not designed for a task which requires hours of siting down doing mostly nothing while being hyperfocused the entire time ready to take over in an instant on the rare occasion something happens. While running or cycling

Mine got slow with the latest update. I stopped wearing it mostly and I don’t think I will get another smart watch. I’m more tempted by those screen less fitness tracker pucks. The Apple Watch is just too expensive for something that goes o

Flock became a controversy when it was being used for ICE raids and tracking people who got abortions rather than its original stated purpose of finding stolen cars.

Integrated graphics use the main system ram so they basically all have access to more memory than the average GPU.

On a low power machine you should use proxies. Davinci Resolve free version only supports patented codecs if the OS supports them. Microsoft and Apple pay licensing fees to use these codecs.

They need the next big thing to secure the future of the company. Facebook and Instagram are still money printers which can sustain these repeated failures, but without something new, they could be completely ruined if the social media land

I think we are lacking in the easy to use side of things. Once you go beyond browser based chatbots things become hard to set up. I see lots of posting about using AI to create patches to get new apps working in wine, or reverse engineering

I'm pretty sure your editing workflow can be achieved in the Preview app on macOS. If your editing workflow is just basic chopping clips out of a longer video then yes, you could vibe code it.

I spent a little while trying. My knowledge of lightroom didn't really carry over. I couldn't work out how to do things like masks. I'm sure if i spent longer and watched some tutorials I'd get further but I decided to j

The problem is no one ever built one that works for normal people. Most Wordpress sites are not operated by programmers, they are run by non technical people who just want a wysiwyg editor and a save button. While static site builders ask y

If we can eliminate entire classes of bugs from being possible. It frees up resources to investigate the ones that are still possible. I suspect after a few years of LLM assisted bug hunting, everything will have a baseline security that is

Ping and ssh are pretty much never the things being hacked though. Turn password auth off and it’s very secure. What gets hacked all the time is the actual web app itself. Which has to be exposed to be useful.

This is not at all easy though. Most Wordpress users are not software companies. They contract some work out to set it up, maybe some recurring maintenance but they don’t have in house development experience. If they have a site existing to

That’s fine for your home server, but if you want an actual server that the general public can use, it has to be exposed to the internet.

Thankfully we have already made good progress towards things like arm memory tagging and memory safe languages. It’s a rocky period right now but the future will be much more secure after all the low hanging fruit are found.

The US is not small government at all. It’s one of the largest governments in the world. It just exists almost exclusively to serve billionaires. It’s “small government” when it comes to protecting your individual rights, and full flock pow

I think the worst part is that most devices give you no option to disagree. I bought a DJI action camera, I had watched a bunch of reviews and read the store page. Yet only after buying and turning it on did I discover the device only allow

I wouldn't take claude research at face value. It found something odd, came up with a plausible sounding explanation and confidently presented it to OP. Doesn't mean it is true.

You can quite easily have small rocks wedged in the tread of your shoes which will scratch floors.

I agree, but those bits of glass shards and pebbles end up wedged in shoes and released indoors. Shoes outdoors are important, but the exact stuff they are protecting you against is the stuff you don't want in your carpets.

Your feet do not need support, they were evolved over millions of years to support themselves. Someone who habitually wears shoes indoors might lose the muscle strength in their feet in the same way someone who drives everywhere loses leg s

That's the whole function of shoes though. If outside was as clean as my floors at home, I wouldn't need shoes. I have to imagine the person who leaves their shoes on either never goes outside, or just has filthy floors.

My experience with iPads losing Apple support is every app just shows you an error message saying your app is out of date and can't be used, while the app store won't let you update it because the latest api version doesn't s

There's already TOR, the problem you run in to is you need connectivity and visibility with the rest of the world on the clearnet. lora is even worse here.

The more times the US uses this as a weapon, the less power it holds and the more effort other countries go through to decouple.

Depends on your expectations. Throwing a perfectly working laptop out after 7 years because apple cut off software support is wasteful to me. It might not be for you.
