You can build a GMC panel van that seats 12 for about $20k, I don't think vehicle cost is a significant hurdle.

Did they commit to additional production of the Vision Pro? I read their announcement as quiet cancellation of VR products. They announced some kind of vaporware pivot, but I didn't read a single analyst projection that Apple ever inte

The Farallones are a group of islands about ~27 miles, pretty much due west of the Golden Gate Bridge. They're not huge but you can see them with the naked eye from the top of Mt Diablo about 50 miles away. There's a scientific re

There's actually some truth to the bird thing. Some of the first wind turbines in the 1980s had very short blades, 5-10 feet, and would spin at ~50rpm, sort of like a spinning baseball bat, ready to strike birds out of the air. Combine

I noticed I am not hitting limits either. My guess is OpenAI sees CC as a real competitor/serious threat. Had OAI not given me virtually unlimited use I probably would have jumped ship to CC by now. Burning tons of cash at this stage i

Lots of systems are "fine" until they aren't. As you pointed out, Jenkins being super-customizable means it isn't strongly opinionated, and there is plenty of opportunity for a well-meaning developer to add several foot-

Github being a single pane of glass for developers with a single login is pretty powerful. Github hosting the runners is also pretty useful, ask anyone who has had to actually manage/scale them what their opinion is about Jenkins is. B

Yes I extracted the physics engine from Ms flight simulator 3.0 (C) and ported it into my own project (rust) in Ghidra as a complete novice from having never opened the app to working code in rust in just over three hours. It helped a lot t

Giving the llm access to Ghidra so it can directly read and iterate through the Sudoku puzzle that is decompile binaries seems like a good one. Ghidra has a cli mode and various bindings so you can automate decompiling various binaries. For

I'm excited to use this with the Ghidra cli mode to rapidly decompile physics engines from various games. Do I want my flight simulator to behave like the Cessna like in flight simulator 3.0 in the air? Codex can already do that. Do I

Apparently Valve was able to use a true cell phone chip and get more raw performance out of it by using lower res monochrome cameras, whereas qualcomm's AR-capable chips use up a lot of the wafer for processing color AR video and DSP.
