I don't think Anthropic has an active contract with the Pentagon.

Painfully obvious when you realize how heavily involved the current administration is with both Paramount Skydance (CNN owner / Trump has equity) and Kalshi (Trump Jr has equity).

New comment by fudgy73 in "Nearly all UK drivers say headlights are too bright"

fudgy73 — Tue, 18 Nov 2025 18:25:06 +0000

Something I have noticed in urban areas is that it is very difficult to see pedestrians that are walking in front of vehicles with these extremely bright headlights. For example, when turning left and there are people walking across the street that I am turning on to in front of another vehicle. I feel like it has something to do with the PWM of the LED lamps + the brightness and color?

Not exactly. Most upper end car manufacturers have been offering PTS (paint-to-sample) for quite some time. You can choose any color you can think of.

there's no way this is what the production version will look like. US still requires side-view mirrors, for instance.
