Openpilot, made by comma.ai, is an open-source driving assistant that adds smart features like adaptive cruise control and lane centering to over 325 car models, including Toyotas, Hyundais, Hondas, and more. It works with comma.ai's hardware (the device you install in your car) and uses cameras and sensors to help your car drive itself part of the way. Makes daily driving a bit easier and more relaxed.

 

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.

Yeah, great point! Sticky posts don't usually get much attention at first, but I've found them really useful as go-to references. Kind of like a 'start here' guide. If I want to dig into something, like a game, tool, or skill, a good stickied post with links and resources saves me so much time. And it's still helpful months later. Honestly, more communities could use them!

 

Lemmy is great for tech, news, politics, and everyday discussion.

Sometimes it’s hard to find guides, wikis or links for deeper learning in areas outside of tech. Things you can learn from even when no one is posting.

Maybe we could share more of that kind of content. Simple guides, helpful links, or sticky posts with resources.

It could make communities more helpful for everyone, over time.

Just a small idea. Thanks for reading.

Smaller content creators with fewer views are generally more genuine.

If I see someone with several thousand views, I'm instantly skeptical. If their channel is part of their work, I pay attention too. I'm fine with AI assisted content as long as there's an actual human behind the keyboard who truly took time to think and used their brain.

Most AI video tools aren't perfect, so you can only spot the most obvious fakes. If someone takes time to edit a fake video, it becomes very hard to detect. The best way to judge is to check the source, the motive, and whether you trust the person who shared it.

A lot of small indie or fan games love to hide on Discord. Got banned? Appeal it on Discord. Wanna submit feedback? Come on over to Discord!

What do they gain from this? Besides making their content impossible to find in search engines, clearly they're optimizing for maximum inconvenience and peak exclusivity. Nothing says "accessible community" like forcing players to re-ask the same questions in a walled-off chat nobody can Google.
