Looking forward to seeing where this goes, both companies have a reputation for engineering excellence.

I had a rental EV while I was there for 6 weeks last summer, it was a pretty low spec jeep model and I stayed at mates places all over England none of which had parking or charging, to tell the truth charging was a bit spotty in town, but i

The UNO is definitely past it's prime, but I think the exercise was more a "can I do this" challenge. The code is pretty generic C++ so the techniques should also be good for other more up to date micro's and for others

"Supercurrent" to me implied a diode which could conduct large amps without the normal losses involved from the forward voltage drop; what this is actually referring to is the opposite end of the spectrum, a highly efficient, room

It's a hard problem, and both SpaceX and Blue Origin will probably have failures in the future too, I am encouraged that they both see failure as a way to do better and looking forward to both of them eventually succeeding. It's a

Too true, and with 1000's of new books added daily, new authors are lost in the noise. Writing is a lifestyle choice and a hobby, you will need to be very lucky, have a strong following or be pushed by a big publishing house to make an

an ePub book is basically a zipped HTML folder with static pictures and text. A 18 year old kindle can still render it easily. I expect Amazon are adding a lot more DRM and hoops than required. I also noticed if you havent read a book you d

I also make my ePubs a free download off my website which prevents me as an author enrolling in this. So just about anything on Kindle Unlimited is only for their ecosystem.

A very long, but very interesting article and worth a read. According to the cybergym benchmark in the article, Mythos is 83% of the way towards being perfect, not 100%, and there will still be holes in critical code after Mythos has done i

Probably the minimum spec for a decent AI native operating system, which, I assume, somebody (or something) is currently writing.

I guess this is what we get when the media and politicians go all in with their AI populist hate. I don't think I've seen a positive AI headline outside of the tech press, and even then they are pretty thin. Abundance and growing

I guess I am too honest to go down the click-bait title stuff. I would love to get more traffic too my web site, but not this way. I prefer to write up interesting hardware of software projects, but i'm in the middle of writing another

A subscription-only OS would effectively kill Windows, but MS have made enough pretty weird decisions to cripple the product I wouldn't put it past them.

Me too, I was a 30 year Windows developer and Electronics Engineer so I went pretty conservative with Kubuntu LTS and it's been a pretty slick experience. Gemini has been great tech support for all the CLI stuff and getting all of my w

I think they have it set so that only followers can respond. Prevents most of the horrible stuff, but also downgrades you on the X algorithm. At least there are no weirdo's on the other social media platforms :-)

I don't even see the option to flag a users post. is it some HN elite option?

It's just logic. Unless their twitter audience all create accounts on these other platforms, then by default the EFF have both shrunk their influence and lost relevance.

Should say DRAM, SRAM does not have this.

Exactly this. Also having the regulator off chip reduces the heat a teeny bit.

Hot tip: Ignore the RP2350 design sheet and use a standard 1.2V LDO in to provide the internal vCore - you save having to use that weird inductor and can clock it at a 300Mhz much more reliably at 1.2V.

For me my 60's was the best time to start writing fiction, before then I always had excuses why I would not write, now with much more free time, experience and no money worries, I can think back on all those thousands of novels I read,

MMU's have held sway for nearly 60 years, but I wonder if in ten years time when the AI is the whole stack/runs the whole stack and the majority of us wont be running anything but prompts they will be required. I have a big intere

It's been in draft for a week, and in my head all year since I tried OpenClaw. I just had to push this out to my fiends.. This is how you should be thinking in the singularity.

I will give it a try, I like the idea of being closer to the metal. A Proper self-contained, self improving AI@home with the AI as the OS is my end goal, I have a nice high spec but older laptop I am currently using as a sacrificial pawn ex

Also a bit formal. Maybe something like this will be the output of the prompt to let me know what the AI is going to generate in the binary, but I doubt I will be writing code like this in 5 years, English will probably be fine at my level.
