Waymo surprised U.S. lawmakers Wednesday during a hearing on autonomous vehicles and their safety and oversight. Newsweek reports:
During questioning, Sen. Ed Markey, a Massachusetts Democrat, asked what happens when a Waymo vehicle encounters a driving situation it cannot independently resolve. "The Waymo phones a human friend for help," Markey explained, adding that the vehicle communicates with a "remote assistance operator." Markey criticized the lack of public information about these workers, despit

nanoCAD GeoniCS – это мощный современный инструмент для землеустройства и изысканий. Однако в высокоспециализированных отраслях, таких как маркшейдерское дело на угледобыче, стандартных инструментов часто бывает недостаточно. Яркий пример этого опыт «Разреза Кирбинский», который не только перешел с Civil 3D на nanoCAD GeoniCS, но и создал цифровую среду, идеально заточенную под сложные процессы: от планирования горных работ до контроля за буровзрывными операциями. Как им это удалось читайте в этой статье. Ч Read more ›

Когда амбиции сталкиваются с экономикой, математикой и логикой — математика всегда побеждает.Я писал об этом ещё в начале января: OpenAI тонет — и рискует утянуть за собой значительную часть ИИ-индустрии. Тогда мало кто был готов это слышать. Оно и понятно — со стороны казалось, что у Сэма Альтмана дела идут просто блестяще.Посудите сами. OpenAI — Компания года по версии Yahoo! Finance. Оценка на вторичном рынке перевалила за полтриллиона. Главный стратегический... Read more ›

Поколения сотовой связи меняются приблизительно раз в десять лет. Возможно, в будущем, мы увидим ускорение этого процесса, но пока тайминги более-менее выдерживаются. И если старт внедрения 5G пришелся на 2020-е годы, значит совсем скоро, года через четыре, мы уже можем ждать 6G.Спойлер: можем. В феврале 2026 года был утвержден драфт техтребований к стандарту.Каким он будет? На какие запросы пользователей он ответит? И как он собирается изменить нашу жизнь? Давайте обсудим!... Read more ›

Google Chrome on desktop is getting two long-awaited features. These included vertical tabs as well as a new immersive reading mode. Both of these features have been available on other browsers for a while now so Chrome is late to the party as usual, but better late than never. The vertical tabs feature is exactly what it sounds like. Instead of having all tabs appear in a row at the... Read more ›

У многих из нас есть слабость к маленьким многофункциональным гаджетам. К тем самым коробочкам с мигающими светодиодами, которые покупаются под лозунгом «ну это же мне очень надо!», а потом укоризненно смотрят на тебя с полки. У меня к этой категории относятся «тамагочи для хакеров» Flipper Zero и оранжевый свисток M5StickC Plus2.С «Флиппером» всё понятно: для классических хакерских шалостей (открывать шлагбаумы и пугать соседей) я его не использую, пару раз клонировал...

Меня зовут Аскольд Романов, я руковожу продуктовой командой в Яндекс Образовании. Сегодня я хочу поделиться историей своего проекта K2-18. Это опенсорс‑инструмент, который трансформирует учебный текст в семантический граф знаний с образовательными метриками. Я назвал его в честь экзопланеты, в атмосфере которой (предположительно) нашли водяной пар: тоже история про извлечение скрытой структуры из наблюдаемых данных. В этой статье — как устроен инструмент, какие решения за ним стоят и что с этим... Read more ›

В малом и среднем бизнесе ИТ почти никогда не падает «одним щелчком». Сначала CRM просто «задумывается». Потом счета за облако растут из месяца в месяц, а техподдержка отвечает все дольше. Потом увольняется единственный приходящий сисадмин — и внезапно выясняется, что паролей от серверов нет, резервные копии не делались год, а новый подрядчик возьмет инфраструктуру без документации с более высоким чеком.Одна из последних историй из практики. Производственная компания: четыре физических и... Read more ›

Мы разобрались с асинхронщиной, идемпотентностью и моками. Код выглядит хорошо. Тесты проходят. Но когда проект вырастает до тысячи тестов, начинают падать вещи которые падать не должны, и причина почти никогда не в логике теста.Причина в архитектурных минах которые заложили месяц назад и забыли. В этой части разберём самые частые из них и настроим ESLint чтобы робот ловил их вместо лида на ревью.Примеры кода намеренно упрощены для наглядности. Фокус на идее,... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Gizmodo: OpenAI hasn't been shy about spending money lobbying for favorable laws and regulations. But when it comes to its involvement with child safety advocacy groups, the company has apparently decided it's best to stay in the shadows -- even if it means hiding from the people actually pushing for policy changes. According to a report from the San Francisco Standard, a number... Read more ›

Nvidia has begun rolling out a beta feature that automatically compiles game shaders while a PC is idle. It won't eliminate shader compilation the first time a game runs, but Ars Technica reports it could help reduce those repeated wait times. From the report: Nvidia's new Auto Shader Compilation system promises to "reduc[e] the frequency of game runtime compilation after driver updates" for users running Nvidia's GeForce Game Ready Driver...

Spotted by VGBees podcast host Niki Grayson on the NASA... Read more ›

An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Google's Gemini AI models have improved by leaps and bounds over the past year, but you can only use Gemini on Google's terms. The company's Gemma open-weight models have provided more freedom, but Gemma 3, which launched over a year ago, is getting a bit long in the tooth. Starting today, developers can start working with Gemma 4, which comes in... Read more ›

schwit1 shares a report from the Kathmandu Post: In Nepal, helicopter rescue on high altitude is, by any measure, a genuine lifesaving operation. At high altitude, where oxygen thins and weather changes without warning, the ability to airlift a stricken trekker to Kathmandu within hours has saved countless lives. But threaded through that legitimate system, exploiting its urgency, its opacity, and its distance from oversight, is one of the most... Read more ›
