They leave the Boeing and Soyuz up there, then when it’s time, gas 'em up and have them act as controlled thrusters. Everything burns up in the atmosphere. All problems solved.
Saves them $800M and change.
Many years ago, folks figured out how to crack firmware and find embedded keys. Since then, there have been many technological advances, like secure enclaves, private/public key workflows, attestation systems, etc. to avoid this exact thing.
Hopefully, the Rabbit folks spec’d a hardware TPM or secure-enclave as part of their design, otherwise no amount of firmware updating or key rotation will help.
There’s a well-established industry of Android crackers and this sort of beating will keep happening until morale improves.
Someone should build a little AI app that scrapes a job listing, then takes a resume and rewrites it in subtle ways to perfectly match the job description.
Let your AI duke it out with their AI.
Kids, always have a trade you can fall back on.
Good to see proliferation of presence detectors. Good for turning things off when nobody is around.
In my last job I got to play a bit with the SeeedStudio mmWave presence box. What was interesting (and a little confusing) was that it took multiple add-on boards for things like on-device fall detection (for elderly). For the time I had with it, it worked fine with HA: https://wiki.seeedstudio.com/mmwave_radar_Intro/
Some Costcos still have them. Used to send checks and cash to the back office once they hit a limit. Guessing not so much any more.
Phones have had accelerometer/gyros for a while now. Problem with pinpointing one’s location is how to get a starting fix and how to deal with drift and loss of signal.
The way devices have dealt with it is to periodically confirm and baseline with a satellite fix.
If this method does away with all that, it could remove the reliance on overhead signals and those trying to jam them in hostile zones.
Pretty cool. Lots of potential.
Yeah, but does it make Oscar Winner Hans Zimmer kind of noises? https://www.bmw.com/en/magazine/innovation/hans-zimmer-individual-drive-sounds-as-identity-for-electric-vehicles.html
Somebody will take a sip.
Was waiting for Nio to make it state-side. Now, not so sure they will be allowed.
We have an annual contest to see who spots the first Xmas display. So far, the earliest has been mid-September.
Toss-up between, Costco, ACE Hardware, and Daiso.
Reminds me of project CHIP: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIP_(computer)
Hooefully, with better economics.
I bet they forgot to rig the webcams, microphones, seat weight sensors, and infrared desk presence trackers.

Is this like people offering to pay artists with ‘exposure?’
I talked to Japanese colleagues about this a lot. The issue isn’t just plain old xenophobia. In a lot of cultures, when someone gets married, there are considerations about marrying ‘the right kind’ for the family. As silly as that might sound to U.S. ‘melting pot’ ears, these could be tribal, economic, linguistic, geographic, class, education, age, gender, and yes, race.
In traditional settings, the elders have to bless that marriage, welcome the person, and ideally have the families mesh together and be on the same page.
Inviting foreigners with vastly different backgrounds on almost all those axes, it’s a pretty tall order to ask everyone to change those attitudes. And saying one family should close their eyes and do it for the sake of the country while their neighbors hold out for a ‘suitable’ match is going to be tough. The demographic ‘time bomb’ has been a known issue since the 80s and people are still resistant to change.
At some point, though, realities catch up.
My bet would be it would take a generational turnover and a few years of popular sitcoms normalizing it.
