It is visually outstanding. The only thing that sticks out to me is that the steering column bends out forwards towards the ground (negative trail), which would make it oversteer rather than self-stabilize. Interestingly there's a slig

There are some niche 3D file system browsers/shells out there, but none as captivating as what's shown in the movie (or the linked "animated experience") that I can find.

PCIe 5 drives max out at about 14 GBps (bytes), which is ~112 gbps (bits). Displayport 2.1 UHBR20 is 80 gbps. USB4 maxes out at 80 gbps. As you can see, 1gbps ethernet is starting to look like stone age technology. 2.5gbps becoming the next

Politics is more of a way of thinking and speaking than about any specific topic. For those of us who see a lot of problems with society but know that things will never be how they "should be", it is healthy to limit amount of tim

LLMs became sycophantic and effusive because those responses were rated higher during RLHF, until it became newsworthy how obviously eager-to-please they got, so yes, being highly factually correct and "intelligent" was already no

I've even already asked an LLM to generate designs in openscad, and there's plenty of examples out there. Obviously there's a complexity limit, but there's also a cheat sheet that makes it pretty easy to discover how to

There is a growing grey market for IPv4 still, though, and probably always will be. It seemed like people were treating them like crypto for a while. Still people out there trying to re-route old abandoned ranges. There are still a lot of l

A really bad event would be that long-distance transmission lines act like antennas and pick up millions of volts and blow up all the transformers. I don't know how much you can plan for that other than "if it happens, try to get

Tesla was winning because they had insight and balls to make electric cars that actually looked and worked like normal fucking cars. Everyone else who was making EVs failed to resist the temptation to reinvent the definition of the car, thr

If there's a 3-band EQ built in, it should probably be an 8-band instead. 3-band is hardly worth using, 8-band lets you do a decent job of balancing most various audio equipment well enough. Should be hardly any additional code complex

You would need to go back to ~2005-era Intel x86 CPUs to have x86 without a backdoor baked into the silicon (as far as we know), like Pentium 4. The Core 2 / Q6600 / P35 chipset already had an early version of it. Wikipedia says A

Non-MS manufacturers get offers from e.g. McAfee to pre-install a nagware version of their software for a kickback. I have an ASUS ROG laptop, and even if I run a full Windows Reset, I get a prompt to install McAfee during OOBE setup, right

You can update with a USB drive, but if you have bitlocker enabled and don't temporarily disable it before the BIOS update, you'll need to reformat and reinstall Windows.

It's only as exciting as a cost reduction because they're playing catch-up by trying to not need to outsource their highest performance silicon. Let me know when Intel gets perf/watt to be high enough to be of interest to App

Lunar Lake integrated DRAM on the package, which was faster and more power efficient, this reverts that. They also replaced part of the chip from being sourced from TSMC to from themselves. And if their foundry is competitive, they should b

There are Bayesian neural networks that could apparently track probability rather than just e.g. randomly selecting one output from the top-k based on probability, but I'm still learning up on them myself. Sounds like they're not

It makes perfect sense. The prices are inflated with a few extra zeroes to try to force people to get any job with insurance. The big numbers are just to scare people. You can also turn negotiating with the hospital into a full time job and
