Or, theres the option of a 32gb v100 (about $600USD on taobao etc), where you can get 1200 of prefill at 80 of decode: https://github.com/geoffwatts/ninfer-v100 - that's _really_ cheap inference, and it's not

You're right! The serial bus isn't encrypted! I got inspired, and have plugged in my scope, and then an RS422 to serial adapter, and I'm getting XML encoded (weird) CAN messages, which I presume are the same as what's on

Not always - if it's used as a bus, it's 2 wire.

I have something slightly different 1 is RS422 B 2 is RS422 A 3 & 5 - GND 4 & 6 - VCC Not sure what 7 and 8 do.

Interesting! Yours is a different rev to mine, and a different chip. Can you post photos of both sides please?

No, sorry - I may be able to buzz one out of the a/c controller later on. I do, have 2 spare USB-C to JST-SH adapters that suit the round advantage air circuit board if anyone wants one (Perth, Free). Email in profile.

It's an FT312D, which is a purpose-built android thingy that presents a serial port and allows the tablet to charge.

Speaking of sandgropers, I do understand Advantage Air are based in WA - so it's fairly likely they're reading this!

It 100% is designed so that you have to use their hardware.

Oh, and you just need one of these and a TTL to RS422 converter off aliexpress to replicate the interface: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005918675239.html The connectors on the small RJ45 daughter board are JST-S

Incidentally, if you root your tablet you can just change the build.MODEL to "MyAir5" and everything will work on a third party tablet.

OMFG; I am in Perth, I have the same system, the very same problem and solved it almost the same way and was in the process of writing it up. The system uses RS422, with a base64 encoded AES key in the aaservice binary, and I was contemplat

The UI looks incredible - was it closed source, and did it die with the company?

I think it's probably a great way to understand the culture of the hiring organisation and to see if your approach would work with theirs. It'll probably be relatively unsuccessful at a bigger company with worse internal comms, wi

Grab must have absolutely incredible internal comms and leadership.

I bet the mood there is REALLY sombre. Leak or not, missing earnings is a career limiting move for management. And it was a HUGE market reaction for an earnings miss, kinda implies that the market isn't convinced by the fundamentals o

I wonder if it's as simple as population ratios for programming talent. Kenyan (distance) and Jamaican (sprinters) runners offer a counterpoint here, the world's best are all from tiny regions, in fact, some are from the same fami

It's unusual to see a coherent, from-first-principles explanation of a neural network. Especially one that's commercially valuable (i presume) to Totems. Mildly alarmed to learn I'm only .039 probability male, though - bette

It's their duty to, though I think I understand. I've taken some (calculated) risks quickly so as to avoid hand-wringing over details. Not so big as understanding if I'm personally liable for something, but I could easily bel

Record companies, movie studios and even automotive companies are all hits-based businesses, much like games studios. There's no fundamental reason you can't build a sustainable business around this model.

I think you missed a subtlety of nprogress, where it never fills the last 10 (or so) pixels unless complete is fired, presumably so that it doesn't make you think loading is finished until it's really, really finished.

by gstar 13y ago
One difference from yesterday's example is that it will get to 100% without 'complete' firing.
