> Even when you cause an accident, you don't pay. Your insurance company does. You might "pay" with increased future insurance rates.
The way I understand auto insurance is, you're always liable for the damage caused, assuming you're at fault. You have a contract with the insurance carrier to transfer the liability from you to the insurance company for a specific damage amount and causes.
> So what exactly does it mean that Mercedes "assumes liability"?
You have a contract to transfer liability in when the system is active, similar to the contract you have with your insurance.
> Are they going to reimburse insurance company?
That is possible, it is also possible Mercedes will pay first.
>We all have (or supposed to have) mandatory insurance. We're already paying so what practical difference does it make to the owner of that car?
WiFi and LTE are too power intensive for a pet tracker in my opinion. Something like LoRaWAN would be ideal. In urban areas public LoRaWAN coverage already exists and where it doesn't the coverage of one gateway would likely be far greater than a cat's roaming range. Bandwidth shouldn't be an issue either as a GPS point (without elevation) would easily fit inside the smallest LoRa packet.
You'd be able to do the switch over from low frequency check-ins to high frequency with the RX slot that comes after a TX slot, but the only issue would be having to wait for a check-in before the realtime mode is activated. But with a sufficient, ~5 minute, low-frequency check-in period, I'd imagine that's a small inconvenience.
>but come high school it could be worse to have lower grades in more challenging courses, depending on how hard the GPA hit is.
At least when I was in high school, the regular, pre-AP and the AP classes each had a different grade scale. Core classes were a 1.0(70%)-4.0(100%), pre-AP were +1 (1-5) and AP were +2 (2-6). So in theory they were taking into account how difficult the classes were. Since this was in the DFW area, I'd expect something similar in Dallas.
When I was in high school, IIRC we did 55 minute classes with 5 minutes between classes, 4 core classes 2 or 3 electives + lunch. It doesn't work, by time you start, the class settles, late arrivals show up, homework is collected, questions asked and whatnot, there's probably only 30 mins of real instruction. Class would boil down to either teaching or worksheets but not both.
I agree with your driver assessment as someone who's used Zephyr quite a bit. If you're working with a new sensor, writing a new one is super straightforward. I don't have much experience picking sensor devices for embedded Linux, but I didn't think they had a ton of drivers for those types of devices. Bluetooth, networking, and SoCs, sure, but not so much for I2C/SPI sensors and displays and whatnot.
Not OP, but for me, it's the isolation. I wouldn't quite call it miserable unless I can't go out. I lasted only a few days into WFH for COVID before I went to live with my parents until I was forced back to the office. Just a few weeks ago I was snowed in for a week and I was about to crawl up the walls.
While this is highly unsurprising, I'm curious what information Twitter will have to provide in discovery.
It seems Musk torpedoed the deal off the number of bots on the platform. It also appeared that Twitter didn't have a number or didn't want to disclose it publicly. To me, it will be super interesting to see if we ever get a real answer on the bot rate.
They phish users with horribly made emails with no formatting, then they send the same sort of emails for legitimate things. They give security advice and then break their own security advice.
Unless you’re a government (or contractor) your threat model isn’t some side channel timing attack on your CPU, its users complacent with security created by you. Legitimate emails should look legitimate the first time, security advice applies always and everywhere. It’s not that hard.
> Is it a proprietary plug on the charger end of the cord? If so, that makes a little more sense, though there are generics for it for a while now anyhow
Iphones come with a Lightning (proprietary) to USB-C (standard) cable but no USB-C (or any other) brick. So there shouldn't be anything proprietary needed to plug it in.
> Only if the nozzles are industry-standard. If you sell a bike with pentalobe-shaped nozzles and only you make such pumps, you must include the pump with the sale
But this is more akin to shipping with an adaptor to the standard nozzle but not the pump. And you can buy 3rd party pumps and adaptors with whatever ends you want.
The thing that gets me here is the "exclusive manufacturer". I don't see how that can ever be the case. You aren't required to use Apple's brick or cable (though they have to be certified).
> The judge said Apple had "obliged the consumer to purchase a second product of its exclusive manufacture,"
This take is baffling to me. While I don't necessarily agree with Apple's decision to take the charger out and change to USB-C at the same time, this is an awful take. First of all there's a million and 1 USB-C chargers from many different manufactures. Second, USB-A to C adapters exist. Third, there are 3rd party manufacturers of USB-A to Lightning cables.
I'm confused how anyone could believe Apple is the exclusive manufacturer of anything required for an IPhone but the phone.
X86 and by extension x64 is weird for reasons even beyond what he talks about.
One weirdness I've hated is the layout of interrupt and segment descriptors. For interrupts the address is broken into a lower and upper half on either end of the structure, not ideal but workable. Segments on the other has 3 different places for the base and 2 different places for the 2.5 byte limit.
This came just in time. So far I'm super happy with it.
One feature I think would be cool to have would be a check in/check out time for the first and last day. Other than that I really like it and will be super useful.
1) Why can't/hasn't Mircosoft/Nvidia/Root CA revoke the certificate yet?
2) Why are Nvidia's code signing certificates around to be stolen? From my experience most code signing certs are issued on HSMs.
Does anyone have deeper insights into what's going on.
