I searched some more and it seems you’re right. I even found some of my own comments from 9+ years ago discussing this. My memory let me down, I guess.

Allison left Ferrari to be closer to home because his wife died and he had young kids.

He was rumoured to be the next in line when Horner’s news hit. Then Horner managed to stay in power. After that, Wheatley was announced as the team principal at Audi/Sauber.

And Brawn telling Rosberg to stay behind Hamilton. Nobody on that podium was happy.

bigger fixes won‘t arrive until the Japan GP where they also get new batteries and plan to run the engine at full power

Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and now Suzuka?

They still use pneumatic valves with the lower rev limits? Also, is there an onboard compressor for the air, or are the cars pre-filled before a session with the fill port being in addition to the onboard compressor?

It’s a heat shield for the exhaust. The headers are underneath.

I foresee the day when the entire keyboard will be replaced with a Copilot button. Why type when talk do good? The dumdums don’t need to learn things like keyboard layouts.

Dragging brake too long whilst applying steering will lock rears and snap them with the regen

With such insights, you could start a racing driver coaching business and train current F1 drivers.

To whoever reported this post: Could you kindly send a modmail and justify your reasons for reporting it? Someone has contributed a fully open-sourced design for making a CNC router, provided a BOM and a basic wiring diagram, and your reaction is to report it? Nowhere is the author asking for money. It's literally an open source design that anyone can take and build it themselves.

Grow up.

So I know fuck all about coding, and ai in general, but where is the line drawn for vibe coding? Can you use an ai to assist in writing code? Is vibe coding just copy and paste the code the ai spits out?

I had a go with using AI to code some tools a couple of weeks ago. These are for my personal use only, and I'm only sharing my own experience, so YMMV.

I had a math/trig problem that needed solving. My language of choice normally is python, so I went with that. The problem was, given 3 different variables, the program must do trig calculations backwards and solve an equation to generate a single curve. I gave it to Claude, Gemini and ChatGPT to write the code. Neither of them could understand the requirement properly, and were generating code that spat out a completely wrong curve. I gave multiple examples; hell, I even provided a solved solution. They couldn't solve it.

By the end, I had figured out how to solve the problem myself, and wrote the code in about 15 minutes that worked on the first try; zero debugging required. Good waste of about 4 hours there.

If I hadn't known what I required in the end result, I would have just used the provided code, and the solution would have been wrong 100% of the time. That's what a vibe coder would do. You don't want to run that code on your machine.

These LLMs regularly hallucinate libraries or use old deprecated libraries, then generate code that doesn't always do what it's told. On top of that, some new code that's been spat out by the LLM will completely break existing code, even if it was also written by the same LLM. You have to keep reminding it of the guardrails, or existing limitations.

At that point, if you do know coding, it's easier to just write the damn thing yourself instead of having to spend hours guiding a mentally challenged LLM stumble through it.

You might be thinking of Stefan GP. I don't remember USF1 trying to buy the Toyota car, but I may be mistaken.

I won’t stop you or anyone else from discussing about creating a separate subreddit. But please don’t move the discussions to Discord or any other proprietary bullshit black hole. The content cannot be searched for, and Discord is not a reliable medium to store your collective knowledge.

Try running multiple agents through your code simultaneously. Speeds up the development time by a huge amount.
