"That’s why we built privacy into our AI glasses from the ground up. For example, every pair has a capture LED that blinks when you take a photo or video that you can save or share"
What consolation is it for the subject to realize (via the blinking LED,) that their picture was taken; by then it could've been instantly shared? What recourse does Meta offer the victim after the fact?
A blinking LED light may thwart surreptitious recording but falls far short of real privacy.
> "Within seconds, the other ELAC detected that something was amiss and took over, leveling the nose and returning to normal flight. The faulty bit caused by the cosmic-ray strike was erased from memory,"
I'd have thought the backup ELAC would've detected a divergence in its output relative to the primary's a lot sooner. And for something as critical as this, shouldn't there be 3 ELACs so majority voting could identify the anomalous one?
"The temporary order is only in effect for 14 days, but it can be converted into a preliminary injunction that would prevent the merger from being completed until the case is resolved. The temporary restraining order can be extended past the 14-day period if more time is needed to rule on a preliminary injunction."
The word "halt" made it sound more permanent than this really is.
> While other magnet-free alternatives exist—such as centuries-old AC induction motors or switched reluctance motors—they are often heavy, inefficient workarounds. Similarly, ferrite magnets (like the ones announced by Ola Electric) come with performance tradeoffs.
Definitely sounds interesting but this line didn't make sense:
> Vimag’s roadmap includes designing its own Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC). This, too, like the motor would be virtual magnet based.
Emacs originated in the era of time-sharing systems and ed (the precursor of vi) is particularly handy over slow network connections. Even when coding remotely, Emacs and vi are the tools I reach for.
The author missed the main reason I favor working locally: privacy, not responsiveness.
We write prompts, launch agents and review what they produce.
What better tool to review that output than the one you know really well? For me and many others, that's Emacs and vi.
Secrets lying around everywhere
If secrets are moved from a local machine to the cloud, are they really secret any more?
Hmm, also saying the scale is 0 to 5 is... something. In my experience, which was a while ago, no one cares about SEV 3, and I only ever saw SEV 4 used as a placeholder or TODO list. Never came across a SEV 5 in the world. It's really "SEV 2 on a scale of 0 to 3".
I propose that you eschew the temptation to overwhelm the child with activities that you enjoy. A more subtle approach could work better: for instance, rather than insist on learning a specific music instrument in a rigid schedule, leave one within reach. Play it yourself and later (may be days later,) when the child picks it up, drop_the_phone and really, genuinely express your happiness and appreciation!
In general, let the child show you what intrigues them and then purchase whatever could help deepen their interest. However, now that you've made a purchase, don't go: "I bought this and now you've lost interest; such a waste of money." Their interests naturally bounce around and may come around again. See this not as a waste but an investment.
Anything (your time or your purchases,) that spurs them to discover their intrinsic motivation, is as an investment. Not all investments yield a positive ROI but given enough investments and enough time, your participation and your attention compounds!
I was with a young father this weekend, celebrating his son's 1st birthday. I'll leave you the advice I gave him and wish I had: time with your boy is not fungible. Given where you are in your career, you might feel extreme pressure to put off activities with your son. Don't! Rather than insist on doing something fun only when your calendar has a tiny opening, see every moment the child gives you his attention, as a tremendous gift. Don't waste it but (to the maximum extent possible,) drop whatever you're immersed in and fully give him your attention and time. Show him in that instant, how much he means to you. This too is an investment with a very long term ROI.
In due course, as a child grows up, the role their parents play in their mind-space, starts to shrink. Before then, there's a window in which a boy's hero is his father. Don't blow it by thinking you can ignore him then and make up later.
"how am I gonna teach all the good things"
Be open to your child teaching you many more good things too.
Finally, resist the temptation to show them a smartphone or screen, for as long you can [1]:
"These studies are more evidence that it’s a good idea to avoid lots of screen time in infancy (birth to 18 months). Infants just don’t have the cognitive skills to learn from screens at this age, and it gets in the way of activities that build brains, such as talking to infants, back-and-forth play, singing, or reading together. Research shows that products or programs claiming they are able to help babies learn language or regulate emotions are not telling the truth."
