What you're describing sounds like a firewall for CAN. It's a complex solution that will inevitably be insecure. "Yeah it sucks, but it is what it is." This attitude might work with some other things, but the automotiv

Cars can have three separate networks for infotainment (radio, navigation, etc), body controls (seats, lighting, locks) and mission-critical stuff (steering, breaks, engine). Some of them actually do. There is little genuine need to send co

If you care about context, I shall remind you that the original question was: "Are we sure what is being simulated here is cognitive? It seems to me merely mechanical." This is analogous to asking "are you sure this is done

So I guess you're fine with calling books "merely paper" because they are a "subset" of paper-based products? And you're fine with calling people "merely animals" because they're a "subset&q

My personal uninformed opinion is that we'll start to see how much human experience and expression is driven by our brain wiring. In other words, we will start thinking about people as if they are mere things. Complex things, but thi

For games you could get far more readable results by far simpler means. For example, add slight randomization of vectors to an existing font.

Cognition is not "merely mechanical" by definition . If it was mechanical, there would be no special word to distinguish it from other reactions of the natural world.

For example if there is a high speed and low speed CAN bus or just one really does not matter cause of details about how it works. It matters a lot. Typically, there is a gateway (in body or chassis controller) between the two (or three)

I saw it. It doesn't answer any of the questions above. The fact that they were able to hack an infotainment system connected to the internet is not surprising. Anyone who knows how those things are written sort of assumed that this wa

I'm tired of articles that explain absolutely nothing about the actual methodology of the hack. Does Jeep Cherokee have separate buses for high-speed controller and low-speed infotainment CAN? (That's the usual setup.) What contro

Isn't that what the hacked car already doing? I don't know about Jeep specifically, but most cars have several CAN busses and some micro-controller passing messages from high-speed control network to low-speed infotainment network

Rally? I always thought of large cities as victims of their own success. You get some good businesses going, they attract more people, they attract more businesses... and then you get overpopulation, air pollution, traffic jams and high pri

At the same time, this means you do not really control your own car anymore. It's like a service.

I think you're missing the point. TDD forces you to choose data representations that best fit your tests. But in most cases of complex programming you want to choose representations that reflect your current understanding of the proble

My favorite gaming magazine had a monthly column about Ultima. It was an interesting read. Then I bought a disk with Ultima around... probably 9 years ago. I don't remember whether I played on the official servers. But my first experie

Are we discussing AI or the supposed lack of music taste in general public? Again, saying "people are stupid" does not demonstrate a particular AI is smart of interesting. And anyway, people are smarter than they often get credit

Games were stable enough before. And the stability of an average game in the first few month definitely went down with the introduction of on-demand online updates. Not only that, it's not entirely uncommon to see half-gigabyte patch

Survivor bias is ignoring the invisible failures in your correlation analysis. What we have in regards to health research is the opposite. Every single study I heard about is about (preventing) causes of death. What you're saying is, e
