They give customers a discount for reused boosters and their production rate is kinda stable thanks to falcon heavy and customers like the federal government asking for brand new rockets for some missions.

His pay package does not come into effect until Tesla network triples in a few years. Supposedly he doesn't claim the salary checks / have a salary at Tesla and his regular stuff seems to be mostly margin out to pay for stuff assume his income comes from SpaceX .

Yes I read it. seems they added another device to the network/ethernet interface which they detected sending network packets.

Curious how this one affected the server or did compare to the original article.

This one seems more benign considering it won't be able to mess around like the BMC has access to things like secure boot and other system busses like the PCI.

This saga is fascinating I really have no doubt of the hardware existing. Thought the original picture from the article and description made it hard for me to imagine the connectivity.

is it connected to the SPI of the BMC flash/OS storage? Why would software integrity checks like making sure the image is signed and not tampered wouldn't capture it? (Answer to this one sounds easy bad security practices regarding firmware process)

It's not mandatory to buy the self driving car. They want it on the car regardless of the customer buys it or not. They have other uses for the hardware.

I don't think his talking about the physical button and the model 3 one uses a custom made one with a different layout. Their old one at one point was a Mercedes one they later switches to another design don't remember from which OEM.

Google has a simulation for their cars that does this. Nvidia has a hw suit for this purpose too and for testing autopilot hardware by feeding it data from another rack/server

No. Tesla does not use Nvidia software libraries afaik. They do license the socs and gpus on a board designed by tesla. Based on the drive px1 reference design. Being changed in 6-8 months to a custom made asic made specifically for self driving by Tesla.

They are not crash dumps only. It includes images along with data of area where images where taken. It's not gbs thought. They only ask the car to upload relevant needed data. Example I want you to send pictures Everytime you get into a construction zone.

That was bidded by private companies and financed by private consortium. My understanding is that ongoing revenue will break it even. Initial install was near zero margin.

Yes both on touchscreen headlight is automatic same with wipers thought.there are also keybindings to the multi way scroll wheels on the steering wheel. It also modify bindings based on last action.if you manually had to enable wipers it switches the scroll wheels to activate it.

He said in 15 minutes increment how is that the majority of a 18h flight? I believe the purpose is to stretch and for the other person to save a bit of money. So you may book it a few times during the 18h flight maybe every 4 hours for 30 minutes and pay for that.

Why? MSR are not userspace registers. You don't want the userspace messing around with them either because they won't know 100% what they do. But more importantly for security.

Ah yes I took the 5 day greenhills training for a project that got put on hold. Was wondering if anything opensource exist for do187b usage. For example a GCC toolchain and a standard set of libraries (apart from the OS)

I guess it's hard to awnsers have we landed and should we move the wingtips to locked positions? Airplanes afaik have no state machine that says taking off landing taxiing. They may be able to detect it by reading all different systems example landing gear extended altitute from ground radar over 4 feet landing wheel moving etc. But I assume it's too many variables?
