As a New Zealander, I wish he wasn't even allowed in here in the first place. He's a convicted criminal and lied in his residency application. I don't care where he goes. Send him back to Hong Kong or Germany.
what the hell is the point of having an automatic driving system if you have to sit there waiting for that split second between when you realize the autopilot isn't working and when the accident occurs?
It's not an automatic driving system. It's just Tesla marketing that implies it is. Their disclaimer says it's not.
The Tesla Autopilot is a drive-assist system too, currently. Have a look at their website https://www.tesla.com/en_NZ/au... It extols the virtues of their full self-driving capable hardware.
Then they say
Please note that Self-Driving functionality is dependent upon extensive software validation and regulatory approval, which may vary widely by jurisdiction. It is not possible to know exactly when each element of the functionality described above will be available, as this is highly dependent on local regulatory approval.
So basically they aren't confident in their own software and it's approved for use no-where. They have no idea when it will be ready.
Which proves the point of the article. Tesla is way behind the 8 ball on this. They're just the only ones to be overly public about promising what their technology can't do yet.
Sounds very expensive to me. Half a dozen drones, a hundred or so batteries, a crew of pilots, a fully stocked set of spare parts. And a new drone no one has invented yet that won't fall out the sky and kill some poor swimmer when something fails while it's hovering over their head "patrolling".
I still don't really see the need for this. If you want to patrol for sharks, a drone with fixed wings is much more efficient and safer.
Maybe Apple just decided to publish a paper on car, pedestrian and cyclist detection using LIDAR because they were bored? https://arxiv.org/pdf/1711.063...
There are already cars out there with auto-cruise control and lane assist. They're not much different than a Tesla with Autopilot. They both do highway driving, but you'll be dead in both if a truck crosses in front of you and you're not paying attention.
Yes. It's never going to be a replacement for a lifeguard though. If would always need to be sent out in addition to a lifeguard as it can't actually bring anyone back to shore. Even if it deployed a harpoon, it wouldn't have enough thrust to keep itself in the air and pull them back at the same time.
Not only did the jetski win, the victim can be taken back to shore with the jetski. All the drone can do is drop a floatation device that the victim must catch and use to keep afloat while real help arrives. If they miss, too bad, it only has one shot.
The person on the jetski can also help people who have started drowning and are unconscious.
Don't all patrol cars need to be able to chase? Obviously not all of them at the same time. If the closest officer to an incident can't respond, there really wasn't any point in them being there in the first place. May as well stay at the station. If they had to get somewhere, may as well have taken a cab.
The tire comment is quite relevant. It's probably the only car over 1000kg to ever be sold with 155 tires, ever. According to BMW it's curb weight is 1,467kb/3,234lbs. Even a Fiat 500 has 185 width tires.
They can't arrest someone without calling for backup either. Nowhere to put someone where they can't reach the driver.
At 80MPH on a Wyoming highway the battery was flat after 50 miles. The range extender is only 25kW, so top speed is limited to 75MPH on flat road with no head-wind. 100% to 0% in a little over half an hour of cruising.
I doubt it would last 10 minutes in a car chase. Probably overheat the battery or motor in 5.
I doubt it would get 50 miles of involved in a car chase. It would probably switch to limp-mode after 10 minutes with a hot battery. Like the old Tesla when they tried to send it around the Nurburgring
It also has a top speed of just 93MPH Want to out-run a BMW i3? Put your foot down for more than 10 seconds. 20 if you have a slow car.
SSL/TLS adds little CPU overhead when your system has hardware accelerated encryption engines to offload the encryption from the CPU The overhead then becomes a DMA transfer and a kernel context switch. Or if you're like Twitter (I think, could have be some other big company) you write your own network stack to include the hardware encryption to avoid multiple kernel calls.
if I want to treat 123.123.0.0/16 as "private" there is nothing you can do to stop me
And when your routing table has a hiccup, there's nothing to stop your "private" request being sent to Chinese servers. 123.112.0.0 - 123.127.255.255 is owned by China Unicom

Exactly like a real brain works.
You mean sort of how people think a real brain works.
23.976Hz or 29.97Hz?
They're both industry standard frame rates.

So it can detect Shark or Not Shark?
Like Hotdog and Not Hotdog?

I don't see a problem with that at all.

They will probably have a very hard time understanding the magnitude of the numbers involved.
Even adults do.
Unless you drive it on the highway, then it's 50 miles.

big government would be the feds. LAPD is city level.
Commodity CPU's now have hardware acceleration for AES.
Intel and AMD have had it since 2008 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
Android gave a bonus to all their employees, every day.
Or you could say they gave their employees nothing.
It's software, not a company, you fucking idiot.
The W3C get to define the standards
Is this one?
Specifically this part: 7.4. Restricting Legacy Features
There are new standards that are specified to only by run from secure contexts. Service Workers is one of them.
SSL/TLS adds little CPU overhead when your system has hardware accelerated encryption engines to offload the encryption from the CPU
