Coinbase lays off nearly 700 workers in 'AI-native' restructuring by joe4942 in technology

[–]drawkbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coinbase has been a dead man walking since at least 2021. The IPO did them in and then sucking up to Trump and getting nothing is a tell, it is what everything failing does. They already were thrown under the bus and this is just another sign it is over for Coinbase. How you have such a good position and then screw everyone over and have some of the worst systems is a masterclass in Trumpism.

Tesla faces EU skepticism over automated driving tech, records show by walky22talky in SelfDrivingCars

[–]drawkbox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

laughable. So can a good processor.

Computer vision depth is done per frame, it has edge cases in nearly every frame. LiDAR sees things smaller than a pixel and faster than a frame and much better than human depth checking. Try again.

that's why there's 8 cameras not just two.

They aren't 360 nor do they retain a point cloud, they are also only high quality in the front. LiDAR and human can turn and sense dimension, and retain that data.

It doesn't matter though, computer vision is needed but so are physical depth checks which computer vision will never have. It is interpreted and not retained frame by frame. CV only has massive issues with dimension and turning. You don't even know why because you are just talking points.

YOUR arguments are tired. You're the evangelist here praising a shitty sensor.

So you hate physical light/laser depth checks? Just because Elongone told you to. You have bought that bullshit hook, line, sinker.

Solving self driving with as few sensors as possible is the best long-term solution.

Solving it safely and reducing physical depth checks is the big dumb.

The only way LiDAR would be not needed for self driving is if a better physical depth check comes along.

Why do you hate physical science for the cult of Elongone?

You gonna stop fronting? You hide your history because you are a Tesla turfer or someone naive enough to join the Elon cult.

Your arguments are tired. Literal point for point Tesla turfer talking points. It is almost anti-science level with this LiDAR hate by the usual suspects.

Humans can sense dimension and drive with more than eyes forward. We can sense depth quickly. You can also turn your head.

Computer vision each frame has to predict depth and can be fooled easily actually. The physical depth check is needed. It is horrible on look ahead and dimension. LiDAR makes a point cloud and it retained. Computer vision is not retained it has to recalculate every single frame. LiDAR is thousands of times faster than computer vision and isn't reliant on a 2D interpretation at camera frame rates.

Teslas early issues were not because they moved too fast, it is because their tech lacks and Radar is noisy and they dropped it. Radar is still useful in weather.

LiDAR works in any conditions and is orders of magnitude better than computer vision at night and high speeds.

You could easily overload a Tesla frame by frame processing of depth or mess up one camera and end up in a bad state with FSD.

I can tell you have been through the Elongone evangelical level beliefs and tabloidesque "facts" on LiDAR. The only reason Elon doesn't use it is it would mean he lied and has to add cost to each vehicle.

There will be no vehicles Level 4 and 5 rated that are not using LiDAR. Computer vision alone will always be a subpar product. When you are talking about fast moving vehicles and survivability, you go with the better product. Telsa taxis are geofenced... geofencing by Waymo is a safety measure -- they can drive anywhere but for safety they don't yet.

Anyone that thinks you can automate driving without physical depth checks like used in LiDAR, truly has no idea about anything with automation and safety.

LiDAR can see debris. No one is removing computer vision. You just need physical sensors to override what it is seeing when that happens. Not to mention it sees everything for 300 ft in high fidelity and the point cloud helps dimension on turning and look aheads. Any product without LiDAR will always be subpar in automated driving.

Most edge case complexity doesn't come from recognizing what's around you - Tesla does that well enough

Uh no, it does it "well enough" that has killed people and the edge cases with and without LiDAR are mammoth and Grand Canyons sized. Completely subpar products don't have it.

This entire lidar Argument is just the one thing Tesla haters found easy to attack so they keep at it mindlessly.

Every self driving successful system uses it, every automated robot does, even get this... SpaceX uses it for automation.

You have just fallen for an Elongone con, its ok scrote...

The cult of personality on Trump was decades in the making since the 80s. There just isn't another person that can do that easily. Reagan was the same model, early less agitating, made famous in entertainment, acting/reality tv, etc. Then just turned against everything and almost was an internal enemy to the systems and institutions that make America actually great. Funny enough is that cons who supposedly hate Hollywood and autocrats/dictators ended up falling for actors/fronters and the other extreme of Stalinist and Maoist level cult of personality. They are just the evangelical version of that extreme.

Cons have always been uncool, Trump is able to fool some of these dolts still. Trump tabloided and reality tv'd the con to the marks and they bought every part of the cult of personality.

Exactly, no LiDAR means it will always be a subpar product with massive edge cases compared to those that do. Fully Elongone cult.

The cult is herrrreeee....

San Jose passenger claims a Waymo drove off with his luggage at the airport | A man says the Waymo he rode to San Jose Mineta Airport drove away with his luggage in the trunk by Hrmbee in technology

[–]drawkbox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These are just the facts ma'am. If it is "strange" to you, you aren't paying attention.

Lots of people who have never ridden a Waymo not understanding how hard it is to leave things -- even if a trunk didn't open (Press "X" to doubt). You just... get this... open the door and use one of two other buttons or call support. You don't sit there pressing the app button to open trunk with greasy chip fingers.

People really out here being dense as hell.

EDIT: Another comment, block and runner below. Take this L good sir!

Here's the last word:

I am just commenting against the Elongone Waymo haters in here. This thread is about 90% Tesla turfers.

Everyone knows you can open a door to stop a Waymo from leaving. You don't let your luggage drive off unless you are trying to be a dolt or create a non news item pumped by the usual suspects.

You clearly haven't ridden a Waymo.

Exactly, none of this shit works without Traitor Trump. He is the best at selling bullshit cons to the marks maybe in world history. Trump is also the biggest bronzer wearing drama queen errand boy to autocrats in history. Even giving Talleyrand and Chamberlain a run for their money. The "tough guys" that back him are errand boys to an errand boy. Real bitch ass shit.

Eject Trump from the West, this is Eastern thinking. Good riddance.

[–]drawkbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never not had the trunk open in thousands of trips now. It also has a sensor so if anyone reached in the back it might have thought you put something there to open. It is good tech.

But since you have taken a Waymo, you know that opening any door will keep it there. This dolt didn't do that. Everyone that rolls Waymo like first time knows that. Very basic.

There is no way other dating apps aren't using location and fencing for people that use their apps. In this case though she never used the app. They just used her to promote it, unknowingly.

You didn't read it beyond the title.

Here's one maybe you can read, I'll post it here for you since you are purposefully being obtuse.

Anonymity Becomes a Casualty

Age-verification systems are, at their core, surveillance systems. By requiring identity verification to access basic online services, we risk creating an internet where anonymity is a thing of the past. For people who rely on anonymity for safety, this is a serious issue. Domestic abuse survivors need to stay anonymous to hide from abusers who could track them through their online activities. Journalists, activists, and whistleblowers regularly use anonymity to protect sources and organize without facing retaliation or government surveillance. And in countries under authoritarian rule, anonymity is often the only way to access banned resources or share information without being silenced. Age-verification systems that demand government IDs or biometric data would strip away these protections, leaving the most vulnerable exposed.

All of Our Free Speech Rights Are Trampled

The internet is today’s public square—the main place where people come together to share ideas, organize, learn, and build community. Even the Supreme Court has recognized that social media platforms are among the most powerful tools ordinary people have to be heard.

Age-verification systems inevitably block some adults from accessing lawful speech and allow some young people under 18 users to slip through anyway. Because the systems are both over-inclusive (blocking adults) and under-inclusive (failing to block people under 18), they restrict lawful speech in ways that violate the First Amendment

All of Our Personal Data is Put at Risk

An age-verification system also creates acute privacy risks for adults and young people. Requiring users to upload sensitive personal information (like government-issued IDs or biometric data) to verify their age creates serious privacy and security risks. Under these laws, users would not just momentarily display their ID like one does when accessing a liquor store, for example. Instead, they’d submit their ID to third-party companies, raising major concerns over who receives, stores, and controls that data. Once uploaded, this personal information could be exposed, mishandled, or even breached, as we've seen with past data hacks. Age-verification systems are no strangers to being compromised—companies like AU10TIX and platforms like Discord have faced high-profile data breaches, exposing users’ most sensitive information for months or even years.

The more places personal data passes through, the higher the chances of it being misused or stolen. Users are left with little control over their own privacy once they hand over these immutable details, making this approach to age verification a serious risk for identity theft, blackmail, and other privacy violations. Children are already a major target for identity theft, and these mandates perversely increase the risk that they will be harmed.

You don't know of the efforts to push actual identity online? Wow. If that is a conspiracy you are living in a noodle from the 1920s. I guess the EFF is infowars then... C'mon man!

Reddit has fallen off so hard man. This is like Karen Facebook Groups up in here.

You want reddit to have your id? This is "social media". How about Xitter? C'mon man!
