  1. Did you forget why the 737 max had 2 crashs ? The alert of the difference between 2 sensors didn't work / wasn't there. So the system was relying on 1 sensor.
  2. I have a foldable flip phone. It is equivalent : I need to go through some effort to open my phone. I don't open it unless I need to
  3. Because it's physically not the same. Again, 1 fixed camera does not provide as much data as a single eye. It's not about the resolution, it's about the 3d perception that even a single eye provides. You can try yourself : close one eye, and you still have a good 3d perception. Now try to make your orbit fixed, no head or eye movement, and then everything feels flatter.
  4. What i meant is that if you multiply the number of cameras, probably make them movable, and with amazing vision software you might approach the performance of 2 humans eyes, but really it is just extra step to simulate lidar data at this point.

    > After all, we made machines perform on a superhuman level in many areas already. You could have said "A machine will never be able to move as fast as a human unless it has two legs and feet". But that is not how it turned out.

    Yes, thanks to wheels. Robots with legs do exist; but none of them is close the speed of an average human running. That's my point. We are not gonna do better than human vision by simply taking 2 cameras thinking it is equivalent to a human eye.

  5. Human have excellent 3d vision, even with one eye. Some ability that only a vision-lidar fusion would match, not vision only. Human vision isn't just a flat image like a camera render. Distance from an object is not only estimated from using a stereo camera (2 eyes), it is made from constant movemnt from the head, and the ability to rotate the orbit on two axis.

    Vision might be viable in an unknown future (which tesla is very good at seliing), but right now it is very dumb to forbid yourself extra data.

  6. At least it works. Meanwhile Tesla have nothing to show, even in "very specific conditions".
  7. you just spit numbers from your ass don't you
  8. Come on, it's time to ditch this "vision alone" thing for self-driving cars. A computer will never be safe with vision only. Things like reflection and false positives will always wreck the statistics of even the perfect AI, there is no way around it. And I'm talking about good weather conditions.

    The numbers show it, the few that Tesla releases about FSD are not up to the level with Google. If it was good, Tesla would be transparent with their results.

  9. Really ? Mine has an uptime of a year or so, it resets only if a big storm stopped the main power for a few seconds. Maybe it is the new hardware ? I have the original one (arvm6, 512 Meg of RAM)
  10. i think you are confused. It's not about taxing an american company, it's more about taxing an irish company
  11. > to the point that it feels the next industrial revolution is just around the corner

    Ah yes, the never-ending corner.

  12. Maybe because the event was all smoke and mirrors, and no actual numbers and plans were revealed ?
  13. Could you say what car ?
  14. The planet is dying and the way you think is part of it. IT security is important, but none of that is more important the planet's ressources
  15. I never thought about that. Humans losing their ability to detect AI content from reality ? It's frightening.
  16. And quite recently they also recovered from a faulty ram module, with a radio link speed that is maybe below the kbit/s now !
  17. do you have links to that, even if it is in german ? Would like to know more
  18. I'm pretty sure that manufacturers have some room to include a 9-year reliability in the design of a +700€ oven. That's why consumer laws have differents warranties.
  19. what is the drama with platformIO ?
  20. just buy the starlite tablet https://fr.starlabs.systems/

    Install Wayland (easy install now). Enjoy Linux Dev & Android Apps

  21. The comments are from 2012.
  22. I have an Ipad Air 2 from 2014, running Ios15 (not too old yet) with security updates.
  23. But opinions don't matter here. If you are logical and factual, that city as vaporware from the beginning. You don't need the many debunks available online to see that this project is unfeasible, whether you are talking budget, architecture, maintenance or transportation.
  24. some colleagues worked in tech companies in middle east oil countries and they confirm what you say. The local employees would show up for just 2h 3h a day, fake some working tasks, and leave.

    They is so much money poured down on them that they don't understand the concept of work, to them it is just a hobby.

  25. Hey, smartcards are still a thing ! My company still uses them. I have a 2022 Lenovo laptop whith a smartcard port.
  26. I'm working on a 3D print + PCB device that turn off/on Airtags periodically. This way, it re-purpose the airtag into a good theft-tracking device (and not just a i-don'know-where-my-keys-are-device). Apple impletemented notifications because a few sktechy people used it to track people. But the downside is it can warn thieves as well. Turning off the Airtag ensure the iphone does not see the device enought to enable warning.
  27. why would someone use Fedora in production, tho ?
  28. The release of ChatGPT 3, 4 made us astounded because it was doing things a computer never could have done since they exists. That made us believe that they could replace humans in a lot of fields, where, in fact, it only improves the work of an already existing human. The hallucinations, specially, can be very costly. The money saved by doing 95% of a taks with an AI can be swallowed easily by an human having to work to fix the 5%.
  29. chisel offers the same thing, although I'm not sure if they use websocket : https://github.com/jpillora/chisel
