Why will X not keep increasing? It’s been increasing, albeit very slowly, since the start of the 20th century as the disease burden declines and nutrition improves. I see no reason to think that future health interventions couldn’t further juice those numbers.
Will it keep up with Y? Probably not, unless people are willing to accept pretty radical interventions to their biology. But it almost certainly is not static
Love or hate Omarchy, it's movements like that which are finally going to convince diehard macos users to consider a more open and controllable OS. Small annoyances can be ignored, but after a while, there is too much noise.
I am sure my Macbook uses a RNG to decide whether or not I can use touch ID to unlock.
They have absolutely zero regard for system resources. I understand why, but such things were once considered unfeasible - and very recently were also considered undesirable.
I still use a laptop with a 100 GiB hard drive - only 80 of which are allocated to the /home/ directory. This would cut into the useable space significantly on that machine. How about Chromebooks?
I'm surprised that it's pretty much the same as the adapters you can get on aliexpress. Not even a case to protect it from feet in the passenger footwell. Especially compared to the windshield-mount unit, which looks like a very slick product. I suppose they can always improve it if there is interest in this first version.
It’s an incredibly dumb implementation and it feels like yet another case of “AI startup gettin’ while the gettin’s good”. It’s the dotcom bubble all over again. Do anything with AI and people will buy what you’re selling.
The RX 9060 has a TDP of 160W, but that’s the high end of what you can continuously draw from the 12v DC plug in a car, so it looks like they cap it at 100W. It has to be on the floor or under the passenger seat because it has to plug into that 12v outlet that’s usually in the front.
Things will get caught by the fan blades, and passengers will inadvertently kick it. Hopefully suddenly losing connection to the GPU won’t cause the car to hit a pedestrian or anything like that.
You forgot to ask "does it work". If the answer is yes, then what is the complaint? They can let other people 3d print cases and make wiring harnesses.
wouldn't you also need to worry about the voltage spikes when you're running on battery vs starting the car if you're running an ICE? and would you need to unplug it if you, say, need a jump? feels like you'd also need to install a whole UPS on the other side too if you care about the hardware longevity (not factoring in the sheer amount of dirt/leaves/etc that'll just get caught up in the card itself)
Very much my own opinion, but this continues comma’s extremely cavalier attitude towards safety. PCIe connectors and GPUs are not vibration rated. What happens when you hit a bad pothole?
Soft disengage -- if the GPU fails it continues to drive via on-device model, alerts the user, and then disengages.
More generally, Comma's safety is handled by a microcontroller. The microcontroller limits steering torque commanded to a safe range for level 2 driver assistance and acts as a watchdog for the rest of the stack. Failure of openpilot causes it to disengage and sound an audible alarm.
I had a similar thought, but I suppose they decided to prioritize price on the assumption that initial adopters are handy enough to fashion an enclosure if they’d like one. Not a terrible assumption.
AI (IQ of Y, non deterministic) can write deterministic code.
Y is going to keep increasing, while X will not.
