The US military/intelligence apparatus is so large it wouldn't surprise me if this is yet another case of the left hand not knowing what the right is up to. Or maybe they had a vague idea, considering they didn't even attempt to shoot them down. Going off the nonchalant response, this is probably not the first time UAVs have flown over their ships. Except this time it was unplanned, and so kicked off an investigation.
I'm getting UFO crank vibes from both authors social media. Also no mention of request for comment from any official in the reporting. Just building a narrative from a selective release of FIOA requests.
> It is bad enough that when I see Teslas on the road now, I feel unsafe, because the system is so unreliable right now.
At the very least you should be required to put a visual sign that your vehicle is in "FSD" mode. Sort of like how we require "oversize load" signs so that others can take extra precautions around those vehicles.
That's probably part of the calculus, but mainly it's to deliver at least something on an over-promised feature.
I also wonder how good the training examples are, if they're just using average drivers without any quality control. Like when I'm teaching someone to drive, I'm following traffic laws to the tee. But when I'm doing my day to day driving, it's mostly about optimizing time. There's probably a reason why Waymo hired and trained drivers to teach their algo in a standardized way.
Watching the video gives me flashbacks of trying to teach someone to drive. Actually I'd probably prefer that than trying to babysit this headache in traffic. At least then I'd get paid for the hassle.
> While adding a number, Sakari provides the Letter of Authorization for the user to sign. Sakari's LOA says that the user should not conduct any unlawful, harassing, or inappropriate behaviour with the text messaging service and phone number.
But as Lucky225 showed, a user can just sign up with someone else's number and receive their text messages instead.
> The US is roughly 60% Europe, 25% Latin America, 10% Africa and 5% Asia.
Yes. Everyone knows African Americans have more in common with Africans than Americans. Asian Americans are a monolith, and so is Asia. And Latin Americans speak Latin. Sigh.
The implication never was that this particular journalist called them anything else. Just the current administration and the broader political culture. I don't think the "kids in cages" framing is as common ever since the election, but there are still some consistent voices calling it what it is.
> Whoever hacked Maza netted thousands of data points about the site’s users, including usernames, email addresses, and hashed passwords, a new report from intelligence firm Flashpoint shows. Two warning messages were then scrawled across the forum’s home page: “Your data has been leaked” and “This forum has been hacked.”
Oh no. Not my username, email address and hashed password. I'm shaking right now. But then again there's always some idiot who doesn't try to anonymize.
Probably because we learn about points by drawing them on a graph at some point in math class, so we imagine them having an area. I think points are an abstract construct. Sort of like infinity - you can never truly reach it. Or imagine it.
I thought these numbers were unemployment claims, but looking into it a bit more seems like this is a survey. I was confused by if you can only claim unemployment for on average 26 weeks, then the number of people unemployed for 27 weeks or over would not include those people. But a survey would probably account for these people.
I wonder how much of this is just people no longer able to claim unemployment. Maybe things are different with the current downturn, but I don't remember states extending unemployment benefits for the 08 crash. Also wonder what the quality of the job is compared to before being unemployed.
> Workers in most states are eligible for up to 26 weeks of benefits from the regular state-funded unemployment compensation program, although seven states provide fewer weeks and one provides more.
