BYD has deployed three different versions of the “God’s Eye” ADAS across its line-up. All three offer automated parking and lane-keeping features, with the basic version – available on models costing up to 219,800 yuan ($30,078.69) – enabling autonomous driving on highways. The driver must keep their hands on the wheel and take control when necessary.

Two higher-end versions will be installed on more expensive BYD-branded cars and its premium Denza and Yangwang brands. These will enable a car to drive autonomously — though also under human supervision — in more complex urban traffic.

The base version is self driving as in lane assist. It will not change lanes for you or 'self drive' to your destination.

I agree with BYD that these are great safety features and give them props for not gating safety behind a paywall.

The CDC says that no cases of CWD have been detected in humans to date, but add that this may be a possibility in the future.

I only buy second hand laptops for myself, but I think the power/efficiency gains of modern cpu's should not be overlooked. The average person doesn't need a strong cpu, but the laptop should not burn their lap or run out of battery while they browse facebook.

C# Version:

    private static uint FastDigitCount(ulong value)
    {
        ReadOnlySpan<byte> digitCounts = [19, 19, 19, 19, 18, 18, 18, 17, 17, 17, 16, 16, 16, 16, 15, 15, 15, 14, 14, 14, 13, 13, 13, 13, 12, 12, 12, 11, 11, 11, 10, 10, 10, 10, 9, 9, 9, 8, 8, 8, 7, 7, 7, 7, 6, 6, 6, 5, 5, 5, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1];
        ReadOnlySpan<ulong> digitCountThresholds = [0, 9, 99, 999, 9999, 99999, 999999, 9999999, 99999999, 999999999, 9999999999, 99999999999, 999999999999, 9999999999999, 99999999999999, 999999999999999, 9999999999999999, 99999999999999999, 999999999999999999, 9999999999999999999];
    
        var leadingZeros = BitOperations.LeadingZeroCount(value);
        var originalDigitCount = digitCounts[leadingZeros];
        return originalDigitCount + (value > digitCountThresholds[originalDigitCount] ? 1u : 0u);
    }

I find it interesting that the X2 chip they are using as Tofino's successor, made by Xsight. One of the investors of Xsight is Intel Capital. So seems Intel had a hedge against themselves.

fyi on this page, when the 'subscribe to newletter' popup appears, it force scrolls the page back up to the top. Seems only only occur in Firefox, Chrome is fine.

I struggle to see how the car market has ever been fair, subsidies, protectionism, import fees. Cars are not exactly the golden child of the free market. At the end of the day, car prices remain high, and consumers are desperate for cheaper options.

I love the art style, is it self made?

Same, but even missing the deadline was realistic.

Manager: This is urgent, fix it today. Dev: Rush rush, miss deadline.

Manager: Ok no problem, let's move the deadline by a week just in case.

I recently started a new job that uses SVN, one thing that really catches me out is that it doesn't automatically add new files. Is there some easy trick I am missing to tell SVN to automatically track everything recursively under a folder?

Does anyone know how to solve the touchpad scrolling issue? I can only scroll downwards, if I try to scroll up it bounces back downwards.

finally, we can stop creating an interface for every class just to mock it in tests

Is there more information available about this? Would be great to achieve this natively without requiring Fody and friends.

Is there any way to get notified when the resellers make pre-ordering available?
