Teslas Can Still Be Stolen With a Cheap Radio Hack—Despite New Keyless Tech

In 2020, Tesla even wrote in a filing to the US Federal Communications Commission that it would be implementing ultra-wideband in its keyless entry systems, and that the ability to far more precisely measure the distance of a key fob or smartphone from a car would—or at least could—prevent its vehicles from being stolen via relay attacks. “The distance estimate is based on a Time of Flight measurement, which is immune to relay attacks,” Tesla's filing read. That document, first turned up by the Verge, led to widespread reports and social media comments suggesting that the upcoming ultra-wideband version of…

Measuring personal growth

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models
My founder friends constantly think about growth. They think about how to measure their business growth and how to get to the next order of magnitude scale. If they’re making $1M ARR today, they think about how to get to $10M ARR. If they have 1,000 users today, they think about how to get to 10,000 users. This made me wonder if/how people are measuring personal growth. I don’t want to use metrics like net worth or the number of followers, because that’s not what I live for. After talking with a lot of friends, I found three interesting metrics:…

I Make AI Fashion Models to Sell Real People Clothes

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models, ,
Last spring, the clothing brand Levi Strauss & Co. announced plans to introduce “customized AI-generated models” into its online shopping platforms. These “body-inclusive avatars” would come in a range of sizes, ages, and skin tones and would help Levi’s create a more “diverse” lineup in a way the company considered “sustainable.” A lot of (real) people were appalled. Why not give those jobs to actual humans of the sizes, ages, and skin tones Levi’s sought? Was “sustainable” just PR-speak for “cheaper”? Levi’s later affirmed its “commitment to support multicultural creatives behind and in front of the camera.” But it didn’t…

‘We’re not about to fold’: Janet Yellen says efforts are underway to package a $50 billion loan to Ukraine using frozen Russian funds

stp2y0 CommentsRAG models
The US and its allies are getting serious about a plan to finance Ukraine using interest earned on Russia's frozen assets. Under the idea, these profits would be bundled together into a sizable loan, a possible means of survival for Kyiv."Showing that we do have the means of translating earnings on the frozen assets into a stream of support for Ukraine, I think, is an important way to demonstrate that we're not about to fold," Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen told The New York Times. "We're going to be able to help Ukraine."Though not the only option available, it's the most…
