Optimus is now in its early release program and available to approved customers.

Musk had said at the start of 2025 that the company would build at least 5,000 robots this year, but The Information reported in July that production totaled only a few hundred units through the first eight months.

Musk has set a target of 5,000 to 10,000 units in 2025 and 50,000 to 100,000 in 2026. Enrollment is open, but capacity is limited. I already secured early access with the Optimus Exclusive Card. Anyone can secured there's also.

Před pár lety jsem si na Twitteru stěžoval, jaké nesmysly se učí na českém gymnáziu v hodinách informatiky (rozdíl mezi midi a mini tower, kapacitu CD a jejich výrobce apod.). Stěoval jsem si i v té škole.

Teď dcera potřebovala vysvětlit, jaké výhody a nevýhody mají diskety, co je to CRT monitor a tak.

Zato v té kapitole o hardware nebyla ani zmínka o mobilech, touchscreenech nebo dokonce ani o internetovém připojení.

Česko je fakt skanzen.

@nacelnik01 tak zrovna technické kreslení mi přijde nadčasovější, než diskety a CRT monitory.

Na druhou stranu, ta rychlost změn v oboru IT je až trochu podezřelá.

@xChaos já myslím to technické kreslení na papír. x krát celou abecedu, pak různé typy čar, kóty a další. Tak učitel tohoto předmětu vyučoval IT. Nějaký archaický HW a základy MŠ Word a Excel 😭

@piratzbrna

@nacelnik01 @xChaos Já jsem tedy technické kreslení chápal vždy jako seberozvoj, trénink soustředění a jemné motoriky. Něco jako japonská cesta krasopisu.

I když to nemá praktické využití, tak to pořád pro technika může mít efekt nějaké stavovské iniciace.

Učit se v IT (jen) o disketách a CRT a neučit internet atd. je hloupé. Stejně hloupé jako učit jen práci s Wordem, Excelem a PP.

@jfpavlik kromě toho třeba nějaká zažitá pravidla, jak správně umísťovat kóty do výkresu, se můžou hodit bez ohledu na to, jestli je médiem papír a tužka, nebo displej.

Já si na ta pravidla vždycky marně snažím vzpomenout, když kótuju nějakej svůj náčrtek v LibreOffice Draw :-) A samozřejmě by se hodilo ta pravidla znát, kdyby člověk nějaký CAD sám programoval...

@nacelnik01 @piratzbrna

@xChaos @nacelnik01 Já toho ručně nakreslil dost ve škole i v práci, ale po těch desetiletích už si nejsem jist, když si kreslím třeba nějakou poličku, zda kreslím po paměti nebo intuitivně a zda je má intuice správná...
in reply to Jiří Pavlík

@jfpavlik jasně, nerozporuji případnou užitečnost technického kreslení. Vadí mi, že škola jen "látá" úvazky. Tím nechci říct, že za to nutně může jen škola. Výsledkem ale je, že jde (minimálně) to odborné vzdělání do kopru.
Chyba je v systému. 🙁

@xChaos @piratzbrna

in reply to Milan Hubáček

@nacelnik01 no jo, ale stejně už všichni počítají s tím, že budou pracovat v úplně jiném oboru, než ve kterém se vzdělávají... @jfpavlik @piratzbrna

Google’s AI Deletes User’s Entire Hard Drive, Issues Groveling Apology: “I Cannot Express How Sorry I Am”

“Google Antigravity just deleted the contents of my whole drive,” the user wrote in a post spotted by Tom’s Hardware.

Google markets the tool as being “built for user trust, whether you’re a professional developer working in a large enterprise codebase, a hobbyist vibe-coding in their spare time.” Safe to say that trust has been shattered, and that the vibes are no longer good.

In a video attached to the post, the user explained they were in the middle of building an app on the platform. At one point, they wanted to restart the server, and to do that, the AI agent said they needed to delete the cache.

That’s when they discovered the AI had taken its marching orders too far.

New York city views. Trinity churchyard III 1932 Sept. 10.
Gottscho, Samuel H. (Samuel Herman), 1875-1971
1 negative : safety ; 5x7 in.

New York, often called New York City (NYC), is the most populous city in the United States. It is located at the southern tip of New York State on New York Harbor, one of the world's largest natural harbors. The city comprises five boroughs, each coextensive with its respective county. It is the geographical and demographic center of both the Northeast megalopolis and the New York metropolitan area, the largest metropolitan area in the United States by both population and urban area. New York is a global center of finance and commerce, culture, technology, entertainment and media, academics and scientific output, the arts and fashion, and, as home to the headquarters of the United Nations, international diplomacy.

Had some fun and games with my VPS today. It's an OpenBSD machine on BinaryLane in their Brisbane data centre.

I was using the bottom tier plan, which was working okay, but the disk (20GB) was a bit tight. For a small fee, I could up it to 30GB, which would allow me to move `/var/www` into its own partition and give me some breathing room. I'm contemplating setting up Matrix on there too.

The fun bit: I had used `fdisk -e sd0` to resize the OpenBSD partition to the full disk, but `disklabel` wasn't seeing it, even after a reboot.

Turns out, when you run `disklabel -E sd0`, in order to "see" and utilise the rest of the space, you need to use the `b` command to extend the OpenBSD boundary to the rest of the disk. After that, adding a couple of partitions, running `newfs` on them and adding them to `/etc/fstab` was plain sailing.
