  • I don't see him mentioning low level audio performance is a requirement. And he listed flutter as something he had considered.

    Can you not process audio in the JVM?

    Edit: targeting JVM he could also use the JNI and do the low level stuff in c++ if needed. I don't know how that'd cross to iOS but it'd work on all 4 other platforms.

    Edit: And he doesn't need to target mobile either, he can just target the JVM, write it in Kotlin + Compose and if needed write native code if he needs more performance.

  • You can try Kotlin Compose Multiplatform.

    It can target JVM (windows, Linux, Mac) and then work on iOS and Android.

    Android and JVM are stable. IOS is alpha and works well. Should be beta this year.

    WASM support is coming as well but is experimental.

    You can do as much multiplatform as you want and do as much platform specific as you want.

    Compose itself is a declarative UI framework. Your UI is code.

    Edit: You do require a Windows, Linux, and Mac machine to build the executables for each desktop JVM app, as well as a Mac for an iOS app. Android you can build on any of them.

  • Stardew creator won't rush Haunted Chocolatier: "better to have a good delayed game than a bad game on time"
  • There was some back testing around the 4% rule, and for a normal retirement 4% was okay and historically only failed a couple times if you started in a specific month of a specific year and changed nothing as things turned bad.

    For a longer term early retirement, 3.5% never failed.

    Obviously, past performance cannot guarantee future performance, but $35,000 a year would probably be fine from that mil.

    And this is assuming a properly diversified portfolio

  • [US] Rep. Robert Garcia calls out Peru for classifying trans, intersex & nonbinary people as mentally ill
  • Okay, so intersex people are mentally ill from the moment that plays out in the womb?

    Is this a schrodingers mental illness, where up until the intersex is determined by an ultrasound that they are both mentally fine and mentally ill?

  • I feel like this would be better if the field was surrounded by a 1 foot moat, and there was a bridge.

    It would take some amount of effort to step over the moat and not trip, vs just walking over the bridge.

    The bridge has a small toll to help maintain it.

    But bridge or no bridge you're getting into the field.

  • Tesla must face fraud suit for claiming its cars could fully drive themselves
  • The part of the claim here where they wouldn't upgrade the cameras is a part that I'm highly interested in.

    I don't expect tesla to upgrade any hardware beyond what they believe is required which they claim hardware 3 is.

    But the moment a hardware 3 car can't flip a switch and become level 3/4 SAE autonomous and a hardware 4, 5, 6 or whatever it is if/when solved is required, I think there's a massive lawsuit there unless Tesla somehow upgrades the cars.

    Suddenly the car didn't come with the hardware required and can't function as described, especially back when it was announced.

    Tesla will say, oh we'll get it working on HW3 next year... and try to kick the can to avoid liability, but I don't think that will work long.

    Edit: and as per the ruling, it sounds like the new knowledge that the car can't on HW3 but can on others, would trigger new knowledge opening up past the statute of limitations

  • Tesla must face fraud suit for claiming its cars could fully drive themselves
  • He's claimed before that he honestly believes it each year by watching the progress the past X months, but suddenly all progress stops as their method hits a plateau. So they keep changing methods.

    It's probably an honest mistake the first time or two, but he's done this every year since and has no credibility anymore.

    After being wrong by a year or two, he should have explained what was going in, and shut up about it, with a simple I don't know when it'll be ready but you should see forward progress each year.

  • NetBSD bans all commits of AI-generated code
  • It was a fair question, but this is just going to turn out like universities failing or expelling people for alleged AI content in papers.

    They can't prove it. They try to use AI tools to prove it, but those same tools will say a thesis paper from a decade ago is also AI generated. Pretty sure I saw a story of a professor accusing someone based off a tool having his own past paper fail the same tool

    Short of an admission of guilt, it's a witch hunt.

  • Thoughts on range extenders for commuter cars?

    So both Rivian and Tesla have or say they are going to have range extenders for their trucks, but in both cases even if they are removable and rentable they are huge as trucks are huge. In teslas case it seems to be a permanent change though.

    What about commuter cars though?

    One thing we really need is cheaper in city commuters and those don't need a long range. That brings costs down and gets more people into EVs, but those will get relegated to 2nd cars in many cases.

    If those commuter cars could go to a shop and get an extender added in the trunk though that would make them much more capable of longer trips as well while keeping costs down.

    If the battery rental is similar or less to renting a car for the same period then people would opt to use their own car for the longer trip and all the personal comforts that provides.

    The batteries would be much smaller as well for a smaller vehicle.
