_trampeltier··on X offices raided in France as UK opens fresh investigation into Grok
It is very different. It is YOUR 3d printer, no one else is involved. You might print a knife and kill somebody with it, you go to jail, not third party involved.

If you use a service like Grok, then you use somebody elses computer / things. X is the owner from computer that produced CP. So of course X is at least also a bit liable for producing CP.

_trampeltier··on Backseat Software
Even with all the telemetry, there are unsolved basic problems, like icons on the desktop, when switching from just notebook and to docking station. Power user move the mouse 10 times over the whole screen until the menu is animated and shown.

I guess they don't want to much attention now, since europe talk anyway, they (us companys) have to much power in a cashless society.
_trampeltier··on Ask HN: Burned out from tech, what else is there?
As somebody who was traveling for 6 month in my young years, I can tell you, after arriving at home it just felt like i was a day away.

I thing, like another guy said, teaching might be a good way.

Also, "tech" is big. Maybe a job in industry automation might be something. You nod just see something on a screen, you can touch the result. I'm in this, it is also sometimes stressful, but also very interesting.

One thing I never heard a talk about. What would happen to all the US bases in the NATO countrys? I can't imagine the US could fly from NATOs countrys bases and attack Greenland and partner. Would for ex. germany attack Ramstein?

_trampeltier··on IBM AI ('Bob') Downloads and Executes Malware
At least the malware does already run on the coders machine. Fun starts, when malware just start to run on users machine and the coders are not coders anymore, just prompters and have no idea how such a thing can happen.
_trampeltier··on Nike's Crisis and the Economics of Brand Decay
Take a shoe like the Nike Free. The first shoes looked so slim and like EVERYBODY whore these all the time. Look at todays model. Never in 1000 years would my mom wear these shoes again. It might be, the new model is performing better. But most people don't used the early models for performance.
_trampeltier··on Nike's Crisis and the Economics of Brand Decay
That might be all true, but is also true, 10 years ago people wore sport shirts everywhere. Today not anymore. More the opposite, if there is a big logo, people don't want it. Luxury brands have a kind the same problem at moment. Also all, special young people, can spend money just once. An expensive phone, best mobile abo, Netflix, ..., for girls daily MakeUp .., also people tend do sport just for themself. All kind Superstars are gone, in film, in sport, in music. Everyone knew people like Federer, Nadal, Bolt, Lance Armstrong. Today even the top athletes are just a kind of faceless winners.
_trampeltier··on BMW Recalls 36,922 X3s over Steering Software Glitch
> According to BMW, the problem is tied to the steering system software, which “may not be sufficiently robust.” The concern involves the steering torque sensor, which has two channels. If one of those channels malfunctions while the vehicle is at a standstill—either during startup, or while in drive mode but not moving—the software diagnostics may not detect the condition correctly.

Seems they use data from sensors before the init is completed.

_trampeltier··on Gemini 3 Pro: the frontier of vision AI
Special since Trump, which non-US company should trust and invest know-how to an us company. And then are also governments. Also special since Trump, is way to risky to send any data to an us company.
