Sure, but there is a prioritization system involved where the highest payer gets pushed first. So the AI may detemine you like X, but if the buyer only showing Y, you'll get to see…

It is different. Rules and laws are supposed to make sense, but the one with 10 mph is not. There are limita to 250 kph in Europe and I dont see car dealers going down. Also, for y…

Mercedes is trying with MBOS.

They are including Eth, not switching to it completely. They will keep the CAN buss there as long as it makes sense. Instrument clusters with graphical display output do use the Et…

Not sure what you mean by "not bridged across them", but devices on different communication busses (CAN, Flexray, Ethernet...) do communicate with each other through these devices …

SecOC is based on symmetric key cryptography. If an ECU is replaced and has a new key, this key will have to be taught to all other ECU's in the vehicle communicating with it.

Yes they do. First, they normally buy complete electronics (functional devices with or without software), not just chips. Second, they do have strong contracts, spreading for 3, 4,…

I still feel more connected to the world when I tune into some FM station than when I am listening to some Spotify playlist. Same with TV: even if I watch movies or series on strea…

Dude, the notch on the phone on your website looks 20% larger, not smaller! /joke

It failed because, based on the evidence I have submitted to the national authority for data protection (the national entity enforcing the gdpr), they were not able to rule in my f…

Also pure anecdotal, I have had GDPR interactions with EPIC Games (asked them to delete my account) and Blizzard Entertainment (asked them to retrieve my data). Both went well. The…

Here(1) you have a tracker with (most) fines due to breaking GDPR. In my country there is a local office (all EU states must have one) and all citizens can file online complaints. …

Are your really sure this is how it works even for atutomotive electronics? I am involved in the automotive industry, more in tech aspects than in comercial ones, but what I know i…

And more importantly above all, in my opinion, is the profit. A portion of the revenue generate by an employee becomes profit. Lower the revenue (since lower hours) means lower net…

For your example's sake, if the work for one job is just a tenth, then it means that for a 5 men job, a manager would need to hire 50 people. The manager would be overwhelmed and a…

Maybe your child will be a part of a generation who can have a realm impact over the climate, in a positive way, or maybe just a path to it. And creating more humans is not only a …

In the original article they are talking about Ultrawide single monitor setup. In practice, all ultrawides don't have the same aspect ratio as normal wide minitors (16/9 or 16/10).…

Cars kill people in accidents[1]. Guns are used for this on purpose. By your logic, we should also ban food because it feeds the people using the cars and the guns. Guns can still …

I really don't want to change this discussion into a "which is the best music streaming service" debate, but I am really curious, why haven't your considered Google Play Music? Int…

Agree. Intel has as much of a problem as VW had after diesel-gate: none. Same will be valid for Apple's throttling scandal. Big corps like this may experience some little storms he…

Just a remark on the topic. Been working in vehicle software business for 12+ years now and renaming variables is almost never done. In fact I don't remember someone ever renaming …

> [Toyota] don't make battery electric cars. (They're fixing that, but won't be shipping until 2022.) 2022 is a good year if they come up with good tech. At the moment the market f…

My bet is not on the Chinese neither on the Americans. It's on the Germans (and other EU car makers in general).

I hope that day never comes.

China is just China even for what car making is. They copy and they have troubles doing that too. They are struggling to implement new emission regulations. They tried to copy some…
