I am on Plus subscription and see Terra and Luna in Codex, but no sign of Sol. Will it be available only on Pro plans?

Unfortunately, console storage and memory prices have increased by more than 2.5x and we expect another doubling by the fall of 2027.

I have not seen such pessimistic future prediction from any of major consumer electronics producers yet.

Humanoidal robots make sense when they need to operate in spaces designed for humans bodies. Cars are designed and built to be used and serviced by humans, especially their interiors so you need humanoid robot to automate building them. Car exteriors are not built for humans to interact with so they are already being built by specialized robots.

Then again, maybe you, kind reader, can try this out on your Speccy - and tell me if it works?

It does, here is 'Statue' loading and running on Belarusian 'Bajt' ZX Spectrum clone: https://youtube.com/shorts/0LaItots33Q?feature=share

I run Gemma 4 26B-A4B with 256k context (maximum) on Radeon 9070XT 16GB VRAM + 64GB RAM with partial GPU offload (with recommended LMStudio settings) at very reasonable 35 tokens per second, this model is similiar in size so I expect similar performance.

5x more usage than in Plus is 100$

20x more usage than in Plus is 200$

I see this when I try to upgrade my Plus subscription.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_(network_protocol)

Thread is an IPv6-based, low-power mesh networking technology for Internet of things (IoT) products.

Often used as a transport for Matter (the combination being known as Matter over Thread), the protocol has seen increased use for connecting low-power and battery-operated smart-home devices.

Thread uses 6LoWPAN, which, in turn, uses the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless protocol with mesh communication (in the 2.4 GHz spectrum), as do Zigbee and other systems. However, Thread is IP-addressable, with cloud access and AES encryption. A BSD-licensed open-source implementation of Thread called OpenThread is available from and managed by Google.

Omoda 9 (SUV) is sold in Europe only as plug-in hybrid with small-ish 1.5L 143HP engine + 394HP electric (145km of pure electric range, 35kWh LFP battery).

Mistral uses them for Le Chat, it is really fast.

There was unofficial Lapz app ( https://www.lapz.io ) on TestFlight but got taken down after complaint from F1: https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/20/24301420/apple-vision-pr...

I watched few races on it and it was pretty great. You logged in with your F1TV account and could set up streams around you plus there was 3D view of the track with current positions of cars on it, you could look at car and pinch and driver view opened in pop-up window attached to car model. Couple times I noticed a car stopped on track before it was shown on main broadcast.

It boggles my mind that others didn't follow suit.

Most fitness smartwatches (Garmin, Coros, Wahoo) used the same display technology for years, called it MIP displays. Nowadays they are switching to OLEDs.

It was also revealed that the Polish Internal Security Agency (ABW) had, in October 2022, submitted a case against Newag regarding the abovementioned software manipulation incidents to the prosecutor's office in Nowy Sącz, which initially downplayed the incident until said findings publicly came to light, after which, the investigation was taken over by the regional prosecutor's office in Kraków on suspicion of crimes committed under Article 269 §1 and Article 286 §1 of the Polish Penal Code.

The Sejm's [Sejm is "the lower house of the bicameral parliament of Poland"] Parliamentary Committee for Combating Transport Exclusion subsequently convened three hearings regarding the abovementioned allegations on 17 January, 27 February and 26 March 2024, whose participants included representatives of the Dragon Sector team, Newag, railway operators and members of the Sejm.[19]

I could not find any later updates in polish media.

There was much, much more discussion here, e.g:

The only software that I can think of that Apple offers as subscription

iPad versions of Logic Pro and Final Cut Pro are subscription based and these are latest pro apps Apple released.

How good are modern external hard drives? Is it worth paying for more internal SSD storage or is it more reasonable to get high quality USB one?

It changed last week with iOS 18 release: https://www.macrumors.com/2024/09/11/ios-18-repair-assistant...

"the title" vs. the <title>

Lvl 3 is supposed to support other models and providers in the future too. I hope it will support every server with simple, standard API so I can run self-hosted LLama 3 (or whatever will be released in next 6-12 months).

Why even open any other app?

This was my first thought when I saw Rabbit r1 - will all of us become backend developers just glueing various API between legacy services and LLMs? Today seems like another step in that direction.

Wouldn't this reduce sales for Grammerly?

Sherlocked as a term

The phenomenon of Apple releasing a feature that supplants or obviates third-party software is so well known that being Sherlocked has become an accepted term used within the Mac and iOS developer community.[2][3][4]

However, making it purchasable from countries not supported by PSN accounts was big error on their part.

Not a single fatal accident was recorded involving a commercial jet. Not one.

the only deadly crash was that of an ATR turboprop

Turboprops are not jets.

They don't "train on log₂(3) bit". Gradients and activations are still calculated at full (8-bit) precision and weights are quantised after every update.

This makes network minimise loss not only with regard to expected outcome but also minimises loss resulting from quantisation. With big networks their "knowledge" is encoded in relationships between weights, not in their absolute values so lower precision work well as long as network is big enough.

If onboard computer would sense that Ship is going somewhere it should not be it would trigger FTS (Flight Termination System) and destroy it with debris falling into Atlantic Ocean (exclusion zone was there as well).

Once Ship finished burn it simply had to land in predicted landing area in Indian Ocean, it did not have enough fuel on board to significantly change trajectory even if computer went crazy.
