The title is currently: "Honeywell exported technical drawings of B1 Bombers, F-35 and F22 to China" Written this way it appears as if substantial drawings have been disclosed, while in reality quoting the article (emphasis is min

Good call! Candid and up-front declaration of openness, basically. The status quo is unfortunate but at least on the individual level it sounds like a viable approach.

Well in a traditional frontal collision avoidance system you rely on the very same mmwave radars and cameras (even a stereo pair in the Subaru system). Yes, L4+ self driving needs more for performance. A Tesla has more sensors than normal F

Thank you. I tried hopping onto the Zettelkasten/self-markdown-wiki bandwagon with Obsidian but its non-commercial clause was really discouraging... so I said "F it" and returned to OneNote (which BTW does have pretty permiss
