Very closely related: This is already a point of discussion for level 4/5 ADAS systems. For example, Mercedes stating that they’ll take liability for crashes related to its self-driving system.

> Turns out even a proxy can be worth $8bn with the right business model behind it. People said a similar thing for Cursor simply being a VSCode wrapper for when it crossed unicorn status.

Dumb question: For multiplying for smaller turns such as 1 arc-second (1,296,000 in 1 turn), that would floating point precision issues be a tiny slight issue (22619.4671 arc-seconds in 2pi radians), or is it just a coding convention change

Interestingly they’re still on the WSE-3 (5nm TSMC) wafer chip and slightly bumped up the specs there (overlocking mostly it seems), for why it’s called WSE-3 Turbo now. I think people were also expecting WSE-4, as it’s been 2 years now sin

For very thin stencils, I doubt plastic 3D printing or even laser-cutting plastic works, as such thin plastics would deform rather than remain flat-ish rigid like steel stencils. Also for 3D printing solder paste, this technique is called s

Impressive performance (also the part about Delta Attention, which seems interesting). Not trying to start a flamewar thread, but isn’t every Chinese LLM censored on certain major political topics? I understand that fine-tuning at least Dee

Tangential: About 8 years ago ex-Apple chip engineers left to design server-grade chips, this was Nuvia, and they got sued by Apple to the point that they had to get acquired by Qualcomm.

Isn’t the case with Postgres too if one doesn’t change the default primary key index for which is B+ Trees? At least Postgres supports a hash index IIRC, but I’m not sure if most developers set it to that when they use UUIDs as primary keys

Not really I think, they built a simulation engine for autonomous driving, for which tons of such exist out there including ones from Nvidia and also at least 1 open-source one. Using world models is different.

If this works well, then I could finally see that AI wearable pins could be socially feasible. IMO speaking aloud in public to AI doesn't seem like something which will work but it is also what OpenAI is apparently investing a lot into

The key point, which at least the top comment here is missing and others may overlook of the article, is that the article states that the USD currency reserve is still the same but that the other currencies being present in the mix have inc

> Autonomous vehicles might see their surroundings with unprecedented clarity. This is a pretty good point, which gets me to wonder whether the developers of autonomous vehicles use variable focus adjustments as a part of their ML stack?

From the "about" it seems that the data is from atmospheric models based on flight paths. However, it would be cool if the data could be inferred from satellite sensing.

Can someone please clarify: For the phone number to reach the enclave for use during search via XOR, won't it need to come in as regular RAM via the backend's API call?

The part about the clock chip using the frequency of the AC power source as a clock source is pretty nifty, but then +-14 minutes/day of inaccuracy (+-2%) as the article mentions, is pretty off.
