I wonder whether they will also require that the interior handle be able to open the door without power. Older Teslas got this right but newer ones broke it, and I really cannot fathom why given that Tesla had already engineered right solu

I despise AppArmor and SELinux, especially in cases where they actively get in the way of security like this. But you shouldn't need to make a global change. Do this: if [[ -f /proc/$$/attr/exec ]]; then

Hmm, Elon really did run that flywheel pretty well. He built the Roadster to drum up some cash and excitement so he could develop the Model S, then he used that success to do the Model X, and then he expanded capacity to develop the 3 and Y

The efficiency loss of nighttime is approximately 100% if we’re talking about solar energy. At least at a most basic level, it’s not totally absurd to stick some kind of power beaming contraption in space where it is mostly not shadowed by

$200? Does this use reasoning? Does it involve forgetting to use KV caching? This should cost well under $1. Process the prompt. Then, for each word, input that word and then the end of prompt token, get your one token of output (maybe

Because approximately zero smallish businesses use Codex, perhaps? It’s also possible that the majority of people hitting it are using the actual website support (which is utterly and completely useless), since the bug is only a bug in code

by amluto 9mo ago
Sort of? The backstory here is that codex-rs (OpenAI’s CLI agent harness) launched an actual headless login mechanism, just like Claude Code has had forever. And it didn’t work, from day one. And they can’t be bothered to revert it for some

If they were taking that approach, they would have absolutely first-class integration between AI tools and user data, complete with proper isolation for security and privacy and convenient ways for users to give agents access to the right

It’s probably not really related, but this bug and the saga of OpenAI trying and failing to fix it for two weeks is not indicative of a functional company: https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/9253 OTOH, if

Waymo’s performance, once the pedestrian was revealed, sounds pretty good. But is 17mph a safe speed at an active school dropoff area? I admit that I don’t think I ever personally pay attention to the speedometer in such a place, but 17mp

It’s impossible (?) due to the “coherence” rule. A type A can implement a trait B in two places: the crate where A is defined or the crate where B is defined. So if you can see A and B, you know definitely whether A implements B. The actu

Even some much simpler things are extremely half baked. For example, here’s one I encountered recently: alignas(16) char buf[128]; What type is buf? What alignment does that type have? What alignment does buf have? Does the stan

I think that SFINAE and, to a lesser extent, concepts is fundamentally a bit odd when multiple translation units are involved, but otherwise I don’t see the problem. It’s regrettable that the question of whether a type meets the requirement

Whoa, did Tesla pull an Apple? Siri used to work okay on the iPhone, but once it got LLMed it frequently sits there indefinitely while failing to make any progress on even the simplest commands.

I've contemplated this quite a bit (and I personally maintain a C++ artifact that I deploy to production machines, and I generally prefer not to use containers for it), and I think I disagree. Distributions have solved a very specific

I’ve never understood why people so frequently choose poured concrete over cheap interlocking pavers. Where I live, it’s extremely common to see someone pour a concrete driveway then promptly cut it up because they forgot something.

It’s also the case that, of the major cloud providers, one of them is quite notably poor at securing its own systems. If I were a company that cared about security, I would not want Microsoft holding credentials to my system.

I know nothing about DSL. But G.hn uses OFDM, and OFDM can do a cute trick in which it learns a complex number to multiply each subcarrier signal by. Since the subcarrier signals are literally just Fourier coefficients of the signal, this

What do you mean? There is a website called Docker Hub. There is a competing product, affiliated with Podman, called Quay, which is also a website and an on-prem solution that I think you can pay for and also an open-source product: http
