Comment Shouldn't this be expected? (Score 2) 66

Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) Center 16 cyber actors continue to exploit poorly configured and vulnerable networking devices worldwide

My only question is why the state isn't proactively identify and deactivating such devices. Seriously, if your shitty device is a threat then I see no reason that it cannot also be forcibly taken offline. People will not give a damn about security no matter how much you implore them (they haven't for decades), so it's time for the stick.

"The consequences resulted in a production outage of nearly six weeks and significant financial strain. These effects ultimately impacted our financial situation so severely that filing for insolvency became necessary."

That's a funny way of explaining that they neglected to implement proper security measures and backup measures for decades.

This is ultimately what wishful thinking and downplaying the importance of cybersecurity gets you.

A reusable rocket without an asshole.

It's a state-owned company. Have you forgotten what's still going on in China? In the Xinjiang region, over a million Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities have been in "vocational education and training centers" since 2017. If you think that carrying out a genocide doesn't make you an asshole then you are an asshole.

It is not cross-API compatible because it is an API. It's implemented on multiple platforms and it's only supported on platforms it's implemented for.

Also, you seem to be forgetting there are a lot of API specific functions functions: e.g. vkCreateWaylandSurfaceKHR, vkCreateWin32SurfaceKHR, vkCreateXcbSurfaceKHR, vkCreateXlibSurfaceKHR.

I have never known ICEs to break in snow storms specifically

ICE can randomly break while you're driving for no reason. That's how mechanical system work: they do until they don't.

On the other hand, an EV can lose 40% just from being in -17c.

Why would you think that a discharging battery would be anything but warm? Do you not know that batteries put off heat when discharging?

The problem is improperly managed (damage/overcharge/etc) cells self-inflate to become what what the internet refers to as a spicy pillow. If they have eliminated the possibility of creating a spicy pillow then I have overstated the danger. However, so long as battery damage results in thermal runaway that causes a total carbecue then it they need to keep pushing toward making it entirely solid-state. ICE has a higher chance of carbecues but facts be damned, people are sufficiently stupid to hold onto that concern.

When a battery can be damaged without presenting a damage to the car then the battery is sufficiently safe.
