Reusable vehicles meant something like 1/20 the per-launch costs of the pre-existing competition? No matter what you want to pay to have put in space, the supplier who reuses equipment will have a huge advantage.
And starlink? Satellite internet access for remote properties used to have all the latency of a return trip to geostationary orbit. Starlink is a massive advantage compared to that.
If it’s like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=483oaUU1tIs then the entire vehicle is built to the exact limits of e-bike laws. For example you can theoretically propel that thing by pedalling even if it is never intended that the ‘rider’ would do so.
Interesting they say that in advance of each public demo, employees "worked long hours mapping routes and training the software on specific hazards to make the company’s self-driving technology appear more capable than it really is*
are they putting a Pantsir on the roof to defend the place?
presumably this is why Claude periodically writes its conclusions so far into a text file that it can read later instead of having to remember everything. Sounds like an interesting approach.

(gives it conflicting unit tests)
does it give the full history to the LLM each time?

(I guess this is what ollama calls “context length”?)
If you search the old ones on ebay, the scalpers all have photos with a room full of steamdeck boxes
Always include a % in your song titles to crash car music player software that uses sprintf. (h/t to Dave P)
Does this mean other companies are hosting compatible servers to switch to?
VC ruins everything
This is literally a product where a hobbyist tried to fix a niche, and now the VCs arrive.
It’s a great day to do whatever the hell you want in the UK without it making the news!
I feel like there is some sort of trade comparison to be made here (build up spice reserves before having to cede control of the deliberately-damaged production facilities, and then selling those reserves as the new government flounders with a broken situation) - but honestly not sure which world leader that best represents at the moment?
Someone has forgotten (or never bothered to learn) that NATO is a defensive pact.
No One Lives Forever is a spoof of Austin Powers, if that gives any idea of the humour level
"The digits of pi are infinite and go on forever without repeating. However, we can give you an approximate value. As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the first 31 digits of pi are: 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288419716939937510
The last digit is: 0"
