Openpilot 0.10.1 Released: Improved World Model and Overhauled User Interface
Openpilot 0.10.1 introduces the North Nevada Model, featuring major improvements to the World Model architecture. The system now infers 6 degree of freedom ego localization directly from images, removing the need for external localization inputs. This reduces over-constrained data and opens the door for future self-generated imagery.
To support this change, the autoencoder Compressor was upgraded with masked image modeling, switched from CNN to Vision Transformer architecture, and the World Model itself was scaled from 500 million to 1 billion parameters. All models now train on a much larger dataset of 2.5 million segments, up from 437,000, covering more vehicles, countries, and driving scenarios.
The UI has been completely rewritten, moving from Qt/Weston to Python with raylib. This reduces code complexity by about 10,000 lines, cuts boot time by 4 seconds, lowers GPU usage, and simplifies development.
Finally, the Driver Monitoring Model's training infrastructure has been streamlined with dynamic data streaming, though the model’s functionality remains unchanged.

… Mi padre miró a mi hija de doce años como si no fuera más que un mueble que estorbaba. «Puedes comer en la cocina», dijo con un tono despectivo que arrastraba desde hacía cuarenta años. «En esta mesa, solo adultos».
Vi el rostro de mi hija descomponerse. Esa mañana, Meredith había pasado una hora peinándose y eligiendo su mejor atuendo. Incluso había anotado temas de conversación en pequeñas tarjetas.
Y allí estaba ella, de pie con su vestido verde esmeralda, frente a nueve cubiertos inmaculados dispuestos en una mesa que podría haber acogido a doce sin esfuerzo. Nueve cubiertos, diez personas. Una crueldad deliberada, calculada.
La voz de Meredith era apenas un susurro, pero en aquel comedor paralizado, fue como un trueno: «Yo también soy parte de la familia… ¿verdad?».
La pregunta quedó suspendida como una acusación. Debería haber recibido una reafirmación inmediata. Mi madre, Vivian, debería haber corrido con un plato de más. Mi hermano, Dennis, debería haberle ofrecido su sitio. Pero los nueve adultos alrededor de aquella hermosa tabla de caoba —mi madre, mi hermano y su esposa, mi tía y mi tío, mi prima— no dijeron nada.
El silencio se alargó, cada segundo una nueva negación. Vi las manos de mi madre tan apretadas que sus nudillos palidecían, pero su mirada seguía clavada en la porcelana. De repente, Dennis encontró su corbata fascinante. Todos esperaban a que pasara el momento incómodo, a que Meredith se arrastrara hasta la cocina, donde le habían preparado una mesita frente al microondas.
Miré el rostro de mi hija y vi algo romperse en sus ojos. No era solo decepción; era la conciencia, repentina y devastadora, de que esta gente —que le enviaba tarjetas de cumpleaños firmadas "con cariño", que publicaba fotos con ella escribiendo "nuestra preciosa sobrina"— la dejaría ser humillada sin decir una palabra.
Entonces hice lo que haría cualquier padre. Tomé la mano temblorosa de mi hija. «Nos vamos», dije con una voz que rasgó su cómodo silencio.
Mi padre resopló: «No seas dramática, Alexandra. Es solo una comida».
Pero no era solo una comida. Eran todas las veces que la habían hecho callar, cada foto de familia de la que le habían pedido que se apartara, cada fiesta donde sus éxitos habían sido ignorados mientras se celebraban los de Dennis. Era un patrón que yo había sido demasiado cobarde para ver, hasta que mi hija se vio forzada a preguntar si era parte de la familia.
Eché un último vistazo a aquella hermosa mesa, a aquella familia que había pasado mi vida intentando satisfacer, y tomé una decisión que lo cambiaría todo. Irme era solo el principio. Lo que hice después no solo arruinó su Navidad; hizo que todo su mundo se desmoronara. #narraciones #mensajedepaz #socialmedia

In case you missed it, Mastodon treasure @hildabast has published a great article describing the current situation with Mastodon and #Bluesky and the relative merits of each.

I mean it's not obsolete of course, but it feels kinda obsolete for me, as I might never return to it, which is sad!
Pascal.
And yes, I know there are some people interested in it, like any retro topic.
I did not master the thing but I used to know Basic on a Commodore 64.
Not so useful anymore.
Perl and Pascal (Lazarus) are still in use, not very often, but consistently...
@distrowatch
I was interested to find that Anders Hejlsberg, the inventor of Turbo Pascal/Delphi, was recruited by Microsoft to create C#.
Not sure how I feel about that.
@distrowatch
I never got into C#. I was suspicious about it being a "Microsoft language" and that it would be just another attempt at lock in and to J++ the Java world.
This video seemed to imply they redeemed themselves a bit with standardisation and open source, and by all accounts it dodged some of the failings of Java. Never got around to trusting them though.
Lisp, Perl, PHP, VB.NET
This might be cheating, but 1990s era JavaScript. Used it to create a dynamic website with lots of logic in the browser, using something similar to JSONP to make queries using hidden frames.
All of that knowledge is, essentially, obsolete. JS isn't the same language any more (which is a good thing for the most part)
(There's also a bunch of proprietary languages for EIS systems I learned I wouldn't even remember how to use if I used them today. And some of them were needed in the same project.)
php and Java.
Edit: with work you mean corporate work. Right?
Actionscript 2. I still like to make games and programs in it, and they tend to be tiny and super compatible with every computer made in the last 25 years, but it has limits.
The syntax is nearly identical to old JavaScript so it's not entirely obsolete.
PL/1. I even wrote an extension for it in 370 assembler when I ran into something it couldn't do.
Then I needed something done on a PDP11, and politely asked if PL/1 was available there. When my counterpart was done laughing, he suggested I learn C and if ever I got the chance, UNIX too (my uni ran RSX11). Wolfed my way through K&R, the Lions Book, and eventually the Dragon book. The rest as they say is history.

I suddenly see a connection to one of Zeno's Paradoxes, as well, where when you build a seemingly logical construct of reality (to reach a location, you must first reach halfway between there and your starting point) and take it to the limit (infinitely many halved distances between you and the destination) you end up with results that seem sound (the harmonic series does not converge!) and yet are easily disproven just by looking at reality.
The scientific method applied here would suggest, "oh, your model is bad". But it's clear there was no applying that here.
@aud @jplebreton @emaytch @ireneista There was a great article I read a while ago about how you can understand science as the transition from rationalism to empiricism. That is, that science is the idea that you need to actually check your logic against the real world. There are many logically consistent worlds which are not ours, so it doesn't matter what you derive in your own brain if you don't have a connection out to empirical observation.
Techbros could stand to take note.
@xgranade @ireneista @emaytch That reminds me of something I was taught in physics, which has absolutely saved my bacon multiple times in terms of not getting drawn into weird ideologies:
If your model of the world predicts that something will be infinite, that doesn't mean that whatever it corresponds to in the real world is actually, literally infinite. Instead, it means that your model is missing something. You have extrapolated beyond the domain of applicability of your model, and something else you haven't accounted for will happen before you get there.
@ireneista @emaytch slight disagree: it's a multiply by infinity error (because the future is infinite)
more specifically: it's not the first place they went wrong, but the place that they really removed all guardrails that would mitigate any wrongness, was in giving value in the future a 0% discount rate.
while people in the future are not any less morally legitimate than people are today, not only is opportunity cost is real, but the future is uncertain (and your plans for the future even more so! you're not building the far future, you'll be dead)
once you've made that error, basically any imaginary future is justified by throwing excessively big numbers at it, and you're just Immanentizing The Eschaton again (usually a big sign you've gone wrong).
sure, we could argue for years about Repugnant Conclusions and whether various measures of utility in utilitarianism make any sense, but giving even the most modest discount rate to The Abstract Far Future would render 99.9% of these questions moot
we've tried that line of argument and the immediate response is "but you still have a value function for them"
so we put on our mathematician hat and thought about why they aren't numbers, and this is the result
we agree with you, of course, but the goal with this line of argumentation is to reach people who are deeply mired in this belief system
for those who don't spend a lot of time thinking about kinda-abstract economics (an eminently rational form of ignorance - in the economics sense not the rationalist sense - and quite defensible)
a normal discount rate in economic decision-making might be something like 8%-25% for a company (depending on the stability of the firm and its future prospects)
or, more abstractly, in terms of economic value, maybe something like 4% annually (in real terms)
but hey, i'm not picky. take, like, just a 1% discount rate, just to account for the risks to your own plans going badly awry. heck, be full of hubris and take a 0.1% discount rate: suddenly it's numerically clear that the infinities of your Machine God are all total nonsense, and you can join the rest of us worrying about $BILLIONAIRE having all the power
@tomoyo I'm shook cause I didn't realize they didn't do some sort of discount rate. Like even entry level Expected Value models account for probabilities, and everything compounds.
I never bothered to look at their calculations because I know it's so obviously wrong, but wow the amount of hubris to model like that and assume you are getting anything that "proves" anything.
@natevw @emaytch so there's a "soft problematic" version of EA where they get really really focused on dollars that go directly to services and this winds up over-funding things that accidentally game that number and de-funding important community work which due to the structural nature of its work means a slightly higher percentage gets spent on facilities or outreach

@lambdatotoro the fun thing is that they aren't even doing THAT right. As an example (and shameless plug) some time ago I did some back of the napkin calculations to check what energy requirements world be like if we didn't stop pushing for “growth at all costs”. Billions of years? Turns out that at current growth rates we'd exhaust the entire Milky Way in a couple thousand years even if we could convert it to energy at 100% efficiency.

It doesn't believe in the future semi-infinite AI people thing, but it embeds some of the other bad assumptions of EA. I would say that it awards its "stars" based on over-valuing metrics that may not actually be the best way to provide well-rounded community benefit.

Boy UK politics get spicy with all the dick swinging around. :o
I have no idea. I figured you might have better knowledge about it, but I think the most important thing about it is the utter lack of respect everyone has for Farage.
All of his moralizing was simply laughed at
It's nothing but theatre, and everyone knew that going into it. Farage wants his moment in the sun and to play martyr, which his base will lap up, as they don't know the processes.
Basically, he introduced a bill to leave the ECHR through the Private Members Ten Minute Bill Rule, which allows any backbencher to try and introduce legislation, or bring an issue to light.
They rarely pass.
Anyway, whoever introduces the bill gets 10 minutes to waffle on. Then some other parliamentarian stands opposed. There is no debate, which is why when Farage yammered about the level of debate in this house, the LibDems basically told him to shut up and read from his piece of paper, as there isn't one.
There is no formal division, as such, and the vote is generally verbal.
He mustered as many votes as he could, and Ed Davey, who stood against, mustered as many as could be arsed to vote it down.
He was defeated by 154 votes to 96. So he was defeated at first reading. The bill is now considered dead for this session.
Even if it had passed, it would've dropped to the back of the order paper and been unlikely to have been read again, unless Keir Starmer wanted to pick it up as a hill to die on.
As everyone who is an actual politician knows this, the LibDems took it as an opportunity to heckle with questions like, "is that why you love Hitler?" and "when are you going to do 'Rivers of Blood?'", and to call him "Putin's patsy".

I love the British Parliament from a distance. It’s so much more rhetorically entertaining.
I guess this is why the parliamentarian couldn’t be assed to put down the heckling. I would’ve wanted a camera trained on her face.
Evidently, I need to investigate this phenomenon further. I would like to know more about the higher levels on this scale
