You can find this style of product display in the US all the way back to the 60s, though McDonald's ads appear to favor sliding the bun more away from the camera than to the side. Also saw about equal number of burgers in a straight stack from that era
Reasoning on pure machine code or disassembly is still hit and miss. For better results you can run the binary through a disassembler, then ask an llm to turn that into an equivalent c program, then ask it to work on that. But some of the subtleties might get lost in translation
If you put codex in Xhigh and allow it access to tools, it will take an hour but it will eventually give you back quality recompiled code, with the same issues the original had (here quality means readable)
I had Claude reverse some firmware. I gave it headless ghidra and it spat out documentation for the internal serial protocol I was interested in. With the right tools, it seems to do pretty well with this kind of task.
Paired with Ghidra having a binary, being able to do a memory dump of a live running program, and being able to use wireshark to dump traffic over network/bluetooth/usb is VERY helpful if you don't have the source code.
You use decompilation tools and hope they left debug symbols in and it turns it into somewhat human-readable language which is often enough. Even when you don't binaries use libraries which are known or at some point hit documented interfaces so things can be reasoned about.
It will have to use a disassembler, or write one. I recently casually asked gpt-5.4 to translate the content of a MIDI file to a custom sound programming language. It just wrote a one-shot MIDI parser in Python, grabbed the data, and basically did a perfect translation at first try. Nice.
I've seen Claude do similar things for image files. Don't have PNG parsing utilities installed? No worries, it'll just synthesize a Python script to decode the image directly.
I have had Claude read usbpcap to reverse engineer an industrial digital camera link. It was like pulling teeth but I got it done (I would not have been able to do it alone)
This happened to me, a drive I rarely use silently died, and backblaze gave no indication that suddenly the whole drive was missing. Customer support explained to me how "backup" doesn't actually mean "backup"
I do frequently, but I honestly can't recall the last time a message i really wanted actually ended up there. I mostly end up hitting not-spam on marketing/updates that I've actually subscribed to
My health provider recently changed their homepage UI to have a human 'profile' icon to mean "register", a lock icon to sign-in, and 'box-arrow-in-right" to logout. No tooltips
Maybe i missed it, but the first step kinda skips over how the inital time is calculated - the cell can't know when the signal was transmitted without some prior time or location knowledge?
> the cell can't know when the signal was transmitted without some prior time or location knowledge?
The signal that GPS satellites broadcast includes the current time, so knowing when the signal was transmitted is easy.
Knowing when it was received is harder, you would need a calibrated, synchronized clock. But you need to receive multiple signals to figure out your clock, so keep reading for that.
Good catch. The trick is you don’t need a good clock on the phone. Really all you’re measuring is the difference in time signals between the satellites. The clocks on the satellites are (effectively) perfectly synced with each other. So what you measure is that one satellite is ### meters further away from another. Not absolute distance to each satellite.
It means you need to connect to one more satellite to remove that extra degree of freedom. If your phone had an atomic clock you could get your absolute position in 3D only listening to three GPS satellites, but because of local clock skew you need a signal from a fourth satellite.
I ran the example doors given and it missed 9 swinging doors, some that were in double swing pairs, and a few that were just out on their own not clustered. Not bad overall though
Yep we're constantly improving we're currently above 0.87 for doors
we're thinking of adding a params for the ROC curve so that you can decide your own optimal thresholds depend on when false positive true positive rate is acceptable
Oh nice! I spend a good amount of time eyeballing drawings for overlooked details, so even finding most is a handy tool to me as my brain can skip the marked areas
Construction, coding is a hobby from before I realized a desk wasn't for me. Sadily we are always under NDAs, so using a tool like this would require a lot of hoop jumping unless it definitely didn't cache or anything
If you're a masochist you can do it manually, just make sure you have a good grasp of whats going on first[1]
Simplistically you need a DS record at your registrar, then sign your zones before publishing. You can cheat and make the KSK not expire, which saves some aggravation. I've rolled my own by hand for 10 yrs with no dnssec related downtime
Great to see more Fuji X attention, their native software isn't great. Looking forward to trying it out with my older X-T20, which appears supported[1] surprisingly
I was about to mention the Fudge[2] app and its underlying library, but its already listed as a reference, nice!
