If your flight is redirected due to weather/etc. to some British commonwealth country, then you might be grabbed upon landing. Or if you are a really big fish, your plane might be forced to land on a crown-controlled land.

I still can't change display brightness on Linux Mint on my 2 year old ASUS Zephyrus G14 with 4090 because ASUS used some microLED panel and Linux has no drivers for it. The combination of AMDGPU and Nvidia drivers also leads to situat

Have you heard of GlyNAC? It targets glutamate excitotoxicity and as glycine + NAC + glutamate form glutathione, it also delivers both molecules needed to assemble it alongside glutamate.

They are optional until Pydantic is forced on you by some required library.

I use it to do my grad school stuff. One gripe is that on macOS cmd+R doesn't correctly refresh documents with images that are not rendered. One has to reopen the doc to get images rendered correctly. Anyway, formulas, text and tables

How is this going to support custom layers like variations of (flash) attention that every company seems to introduce? Would it mean one won't be able to run a specific model (or only have its bastardized version) until MS implements i

This push feels like preparation for a war, and subsequent total control of communication. Nobody hopefully believes it's about children.

What if we went the other direction - push chat control but on government and rich folks? Make them fully transparent as the price of power/influence, and leave normies opaque?

Everything is possible. They also might have used some creative metrics giving 2000+ fps. I don't know. Or they might have found some neat trick nobody thought about before.

You don't need to give me lessons in photography. I remember around the time of D750 Sony upgraded their sensor manufacturing process from some ancient 100-200nm or so to something newer which improved night performance tenfold. Quantu

by storus 1y ago
AFAIK Sony and Canon are still using some ancient manufacturing process for sensors as chips have the priority and if Tesla has access to e.g. 5nm process for manufacturing sensors that would drastically expand possibilities. Also you bypas

I don't know the specifics, maybe they are timing individual cameras in a way they achieve 2000fps with a crisp image in each camera and merging them together. Or maybe they are using some MIT tech that was able to capture super low li

Because you are processing a sequence of a fixed length in deep learning models and the more frames you have, the more accurate your FSD output is. Driving 1.4m between the frames with single-frame accuracy of 80% is quite risky and input c

I have this first-hand from the FSD team at Tesla from 5 years ago. Who knows where they are nowadays. You can believe whatever you like.

I agree it's a nice car but value-wise it can't compete even with KIA Stonic. Spring is terrible due to a very low range, agreed. I think we need two more generations of batteries to make EVs fully usable, ideally 800-1000km for a

Because it's true. Most EU countries aren't built to have 100% EV. Not every country is Norway. Spanish or Czech grids collapse from hot weather already, how much worse would it be when you suddenly plug millions of vehicles? With

R5 is unbelievably overpriced for its size and nostalgic value.

Much of PM2.5 particles is generated by tires. EVs are much harder on tires, often needing tire replacement after just 1 year. So on one hand, you get rid of PM2.5 from fossil fuels, on the other hand you increase tire PM2.5 five fold.

Electric grid is incapable of 1:1 switching to EVs from gas/diesel vehicles. If you want to collapse economy, just enforce it with your draconian measures.

They had camera-only tech employing multiple 4k cameras running at over 2000fps. Not your grandma's 480p/25fps webcam many car manufacturers use as parking cameras. 2000fps gives you enormous safety margin even in case of individu

I think it's more like that before only Tesla had working lane following system on highways that allowed one to do mostly hands-free driving during long drives but nowadays even the cheapest KIA has it working well so no need to spend

I tried V3.1 but it was driving me crazy by ignoring parts of user input, which R1 never did. I had many such instances when e.g. asking about running DeepSeek 671B it instead picked DeepSeek 67B because 671B is too large to exist so I must

Stanford's CS224N told us it was about preserving identity because non-linear neural networks are bad at learning identity.

Skip connections are about preserving identity, not to make it more numerically stable.

No, it was something else but I can't find it via HN search anymore. I think it was in 2013-2014, which is timeframe when I deleted my FB account (that for some reason kept living for many years as I was told).
