People love to put things into neat boxes so that we can somehow reduce them to a single concept. Unfortunately the real world is usually a bit more messy than that. This is one ex…

Finally an AI company besides DeepSeek taking economics into account.

Ask it in Chinese

I now see engineers treating people like AI agents. It can always get worse...

Anybody who worked on a car knows an extra hand would always be helpful.

Have you seen the US tax code?

Black spray paint is less effort

Tokens are like bandwidth. The more I see the more I get echos of the dotcom bubble.

Now that China is also making them I wouldn't be surprised if they drop this. But FLIR has been doing milspec thermal cameras for over 20 years and I think the regulation certainly…

The US government obviously has no control over what China sends to Australia, so it this case the cat is out of the bag. However I can assure you the limit is still real for US co…

Another one is thermal vision cameras. Anything above 9fps (I guess an arbitrary cutoff to do with night-vision goggles) is export controlled. This is despite the technology being …

At least you crash feet-first.

Exactly. Hair and scalp. Evolution already made a MIPS system. The thing lacking it was the test dummies that Virginia Tech uses, so now they recommend we put it in helmets too.

"correctly invalidating your cache" rears it's ugly head once again.
