3mph can be as much as 30% increase in fatality when hitting a pedestrian Especially when it's in the range of 30 - 40mph. Below 20 is minimal risk, above 40 is major risk. Anything in between is highly dependent on speed.
What reason did the Uber car have for going 38 in a 35 zone? Surely the speed limit was lowered from 45 to 35 for a reason, probably for safety reasons. Can the car not read road signs? It doesn't have the excuse of "I was watching the road, not my speedo" for a minor speeding offence. Did Uber fail to update the map data when the speed limits changed?
The risk of death being hit by a car below 30mph is relatively low. It increases rapidly as speed increases. 9% chance of death at 30mph. 50% chance of death at 40mph. Starts reaching 100% fatal over 50mph.
There's a reasonable chance the woman, who may well have been in the wrong, would still be alive if the car was traveling at or below the 35mph limit.
There's another study that showed a reduction in speed by 5km/h would result in 30% fewer deaths. That happens to be how much the Uber car was over the limit. http://humantransport.org/side...
It's still claimed to be an x86 processor though. The 100k transistor 286 had a much smaller instruction set and was only 16 bit The first proper "x86" was the 386, which came in at 275,000 transistors.
It would have to be a *very* fast, very simple processor emulating x86 to be as fast as a 33MHz 486 and only require 100k transistors. and still run on half a bee's dick of power from a tiny PV panel.
The picture of a chip sitting on a finger in the article is 64 motherboards. Each motherboard is 1x1mm, which includes the CPU, SRAM, a PV cell for power and an LED/photodiode for I/O. Smaller than a relatively big grain of salt.
I'm a little confused about the power of the thing though. They say it's similar performance to a CPU from 1990, which would be a 486. Except the 486 had over 1 million transistors, this has 100,000. That's more on par with a 286 from the early 80's
In this context, the SHA-1 hash only has one iteration. In 2010, it only cost $2.10 to crack a 6 char password in an EC2 instance. https://www.geek.com/news/rese... Since then hardware has become much faster. Today's GPU's can do several billion hashes per second. There have also been more advances made in brute forcing SHA-1 https://nakedsecurity.sophos.c...
Your anecdote doesn't change the fact the service department of any car dealership is the most profitable part of the business and the OEM spare parts departments of car manufacturers are also extremely profitable.
.... which is why spare parts are sold at high markup. If you tried to assemble a $20,000 car from spare parts at retail price, you'd probably end up spending $1,000,000. You wouldn't be able to do it though, since you can't buy a spare monocoque chassis.
It's a good thing Apple, ARM, Broadcom, Intel and Nvidia are backing the codec then, which should accelerate the availability of devices with hardware acceleration.
100k miles is pretty average for a 10 year old car. The Uber limit is 2007 or newer. Just driving 100 miles a day will rack up over 365k over 10 years. Limiting that to 100 miles per working day, its still 200,000 miles. I drive 30 miles a day just going to work and back. There are thousands more just in my part of a small country who drive 60 miles a day commuting.
500,000 miles over 10 years is not unreasonable for a car that's driven as part of a full time job. I've been driving for 20 years and never been a taxi driver, courier driver, or done kind of commercial driving. I've racked up over 500,000km (or about 300,000 miles I supposed) in the half dozen cars I've had over the years. I sold one of them with 320,000km on the clock and it was only 12 years old at the time.
Although, we don't use antiquated units like miles.
If you drive a vehicle all day every day and regularly maintain it, it will last well over half a million miles. That's not an uncommon mileage for a courier or taxi vehicle.

All because General Motors could make more money from adding lead to petrol instead of ethanol to increase octane rating.

It's also a CPU powered by a PV panel that only covers a fraction of a 1x1mm chip, so it's not going to be running that fast.

PCI-DSS allows SSL traffic to be monitored.
Actually it probably forbids SSL, as it's an old, weak encryption standard. TLS is where it's at now.
But how about Iran before Iraq?

They haven't released any details on how to execute the vulnerability.
How is this not responsible disclosure?
Perhaps AMD refused to sign an NDA?
Plug a usb drive in to a machine, load your own OS, insert persistent undetectable malware, profit?

It works out great for the auto industry.

TorrentFreak is a news site about torrents.
The media industry doesn't like them because they don't publish their view.
Since they started late last year, they've stopped security updates for Android N.
Mines back on August 1 patch level.
And Motorola still hasn't finished their rollout of Android O to Moto X4's

Although my experience is with Japanese cars.
Except it appears it's not all going towards capital investment.
It's going to operating expenses.
The only assets it has is an app and a brand name
There's no money in it for Apple to build a new app to rip your CDs.
Your only hope is going to be a third party app.
Except all this DRM bollocks makes piracy a better experience for any mildly competent user.
