Agree with the headline part, but the second part not so much. As someone mentioned it's about the trend. I have heard from people at multiple major open source projects that what is keeping them at Github at this point are free GH Act

Also my 14yo self was far more skilled at circumventing online guardrails (mostly piracy back then) than my old ass is today. I’m not winning that battle of cat and mouse.

Those are far from easy do handle for majority of parents. Banks keeps sending me warnings about some new ‘Nigerian prince’ level scams. They wouldn’t be doing it if grownups weren’t falling for them. General population doesn’t want to setu

Not when big tech is doing everything they can to bring harmful content to kids while pretending to sincerely offer guardrails.

I like to point out often the yellow vests protesters being ratted out by Proton as good example of how misleading their marketing is. French police contacted Swiss police to get the id of the accounts, Swiss told proton to hand over the da

Thats the variation within the classes. And there will always be outliers, but even if you look at bodybuilders in 100+ kg, they are not what you’d call weak even if they don’t optimize for strength.

You cannot be strong without being big and you cannot be big without being strong. Of course there are levels to this, variations within “weight classes”… but in general this holds true. Also consistency trumps any program.

"remained flat" and "remained flat when adjusted for inflation" are two very different things.

Qualcomm has bought plenty of companies that serviced small customers, and what happed is exactly what the person you’re replying to described. You can’t even get a quote many times. What I expect short term is what happened to Eagle in the

it's unrelated to the manufacturing of EVs. If any factory reaches a significant energy generation (usually this means from solar) it makes sense to look into a battery solution. It just happens to be Mazda's manufacturing plant.

Wanting the latest and greatest was a thing back in 2010s, when there was a lot of progress and a lot of experiments by the phone manufacturers. Today, me and most of my friends are pushing our phones as long as we can (4+ years). My parent

I did not refer to the talent directly contributing to the technical progress. P.S. - clarification: I mean not referring to talent at OpenAI. And yes I have very little doubt talent at DeepSeek is a lot cheaper than the things I listed abo

What factories are TSMC and ASML operating in US?

One thing I (intuitively) don't doubt - that they spent less money for developing R1 than OpenAI spent on marketing, lobbying and management compensation.

It had a vary suspicions statement. They stated that they see specifically a lot of Mullvad ads. Not general VPN ads. That is what makes is sound malicious. Mullvad is not even close to being in the group of biggest marketing spenders. You

Have you cared to check the tiers they offer? Hint: not that many, and no free ones. And knowing that mullvad doesn’t come close to the mainstream marketing others (well in essence one) VPN providers, your comment comes of as malicious.

Those type of attacks (CAN injections) are very OEM specific, and come from deep insider knowledge, not something you fuck around and find out. I’m assuming you’re referring to Toyota, but anyways please give direct reference to the attack

Not really. At least not for those immobilizers that don't use "proprietary" ciphers. Automotive loves security through obscurity until it bites them in the ass. Today most manufacturers have moved to AES128, which is not che

Regarding the Kia Boyz - immobilizers have been mandatory in most of Europe since late 90s, in Canada since 2007. Basically there is something to put on (lack of) regulations as well as on HKMC.

Seems a bit like blame shifting. Almost any approach will work if perfectly executed by a team with a perfectly matching skill sets, but yeah we have to account for the imperfections (to put it lightly).
