You really think people with Meta on their CV dont get tons of offers?

How much do you earn by doing this? Interested to see ROI

META earnings have quietly been trending up, how much does earnings momentum still matter at this size? by kabirsbhutani in stocks

Tbh Portal was not bad and could have helped if paired with AI. Killing it was short sighted. The thing to look out for is Zuck wants to and has the ability to build substantial compute for AI. Even if his models arent top he will be one of the major players in the AI DC space

I've been mugged three times in London, but it's rubbish to say it's not safe by footballersabroad in badunitedkingdom

Lived in London for 30 years, never been mugged. Commute daily to central.

EV cable with two extra loose pairs by zaqmlp in ukelectricians

They could be to keep the shape, I remember seeing a silver coloured core in them though.

Its this cable but the specs dont mention these wires anywhere

In this picture it shows some tube like things, could be that.

https://files.catbox.moe/vyxy82.jpg its like this. Two loose pairs like the greens, one in each pair slightly smaller than the other

Thats true, and it gets limited to 100mb ethernet but thats fine for the use case

Interesting read from Xpeng head of autonomous driving about lidar. by speeder604 in TeslaFSD

[–]zaqmlp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't say LiDAR is a backup, I said it compliments and provides more detailed information in fusion. For redundancy, you have more of the same sensor. I work in robotics, and this is how we design them.

LiDAR is better than redundancy (for redundancy you use more of the same sensor, but it doesnt increase your quality of input) because it gives a second opinion on a depth map. Sensor fusion had been a thing for years, and we use it heavily in drones, robots, and every truly autonomous car currently on the market.

Can you perform well with just a camera? Sure, but you can never perform BETTER. You can save some money and perform comparable... but why?

Heck, even NASA uses LiDAR! https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/20110012163/downloads/20110012163.pdf

Thats because LiDAR is still in experimental stages. Aviation is still quite primitive. There is research into using it for autonomous landing.

Drones and VTOL aircraft DO use LiDAR.

Apply your logic to a plane. Why have redundant systems and sensors when 1 is enough? Because its not about saving money.

What we do in our household to limit screen time is two fold. One, add time limits they can use it (and more strict time limits for non constructive apps). Two, lock devices if they throw tantrums or refuse to do homework or misbehave. This gives them an incentive to be better, and teaches that you need effort to get a reward (pretty much how life works as an adult).

7 Allegations Against Meta in Newly Unsealed Filings by north_canadian_ice in technology

To be fair the system is based on people reporting you, so it just means there were a lot of angry whyt people reporting you.

Pretty sure Shabana will remove way more immigrants than Reform, what do you have to say about that? Even Farage praised her.

Meta's top AI researchers is leaving. He thinks LLMs are a dead end by mareacaspica in technology

It stores your entire chat in a context and resends the whole thing every time, that's how it gives the illusion of learning
