Oh no, across the line Toyota still tries to sell you a subscription service that's required for things like remote start.

Yeah I wish I had known about or had access to that stuff when I was a kid. To really learn and internalize ideas like negative frequency early would have been quite fun.

It is, I've done it live on a laptop and via the front camera of a phone. I actually wrote this thing twice, once in Swift a few years back, and then again in Python more recently because I wanted to remember the details of how to do i

Once you start looking at the world through the lens of frequency domain a lot of neat tricks become simple. I have some demo code that uses fourier transform on webcam video to read a heartrate off a person's face, basically looking f

I've followed the research a little bit. The general sense I get is that, specifically vehicle control at the edge of traction, software in the lab has far outperformed normal humans for over a decade. The problem is that delivering th

Mixed and fractional scaling both mostly don't work (not complaining, but those a common for people with laptops and external displays).

For sure, and I think it expands the scope of what factory scale efforts can find. The big question of course being how to handle remediation because more bugs without more maintainer capacity is a recipe for tears.

My guess is the main "AI" contribution here is to automate some of the work around the actual fuzzing. Setting up the test environment and harness, reading the code + commit history + published vulns for similar projects, identify

I can't speak to what exactly this team is doing but I haven't seen any evidence that with-robot finds less bugs than without-robot. I do have some experience in this area.

They pitch their company as finding bugs "with AI". It's not hard to point one of the coding agents at a repo URL and have it find bugs even in code that's been in the wild for a long time, looking at their list that loo

FWIW I have some background in this area and got curious how Meshtastic works so I read some of the docs and code. It seems like they are unaware of existing work even 20+ years ago, a specific suggestion is to study the state of single rad

Have you tried Qwen3 Next 80B? It may run a lot faster, though I don't know how well it does coding tasks.

I haven't tried it yet, but yes. Qwen3 Next 80B works decently in my testing, and fast. I had mixed results with the new Nemotron, but it and the new Qwen models are both very fast to run.

Smaller open-weights models are also improving noticeably (like Qwen3 Coder 30B), the improvements are happening at all sizes.

There are challenges with really big monolithic caches. IBM does something sort of like your idea in their Power and Telum chips, with different approaches. Power has a non-uniform cache within each die, Telum has a way to stitch together c

Oh, the Xeons are with the vX vs vY nonsense, where the same number but a different version is an entirely different CPU (like the 2620 v1 and v2 are different microarchitecture generations and core counts). But, not to leave AMD out, they

ZeroFS looks really good. I know a bit about this design space but hadn't run across ZeroFS yet. Do you do testing of the error recovery behavior (connectivity etc)?

The planetary gear "eCVT" systems that Toyota and Ford use in many models are mechanically a lot simpler than a traditional automatic or sequential manual transmission. Few moving parts and no clutches at all. I don't know wh

Why? Probably better to ask the Wayland developers that. Maybe you're right. That said, whether everyone uses the same compositor and window management is modular, or not and shared code travels as libraries, I don't think the com

Turning the question around, what other part of the system _could_ do this job? And how would the compositor do any part of its job if it doesn't have access to both window contents and displays? I'm not super deep in this area bu

Color management infrastructure is intricate. To grossly simplify: somehow you need to connect together the profile and LUT for each display, upload the LUTs to the display controller, and provide appropriate profile data for each window to

You can have the tool start by writing an implementation plan describing the overall approach and key details including references, snippets of code, task list, etc. That is much faster than a raw diff to review and refine to make sure it m

It depends how old / where, the US didn't start vaccinating widely until around 30 years ago.
