Technology@lemmy.world•10% of Firefox crashes are caused by bitflipsEnglish
39·18 days agoI don’t think they’re arguing that Firefox is more susceptible to bit flips. They’re trying to say that their software is “solid” enough that a significant number of the reported crashes are due to faulty hardware, which is essentially out of their control.
If other software used the same methodology, you could probably use the numbers to statistically compare how “solid” the code base is between the two programs. For example, if the other software found that 20% of their crashes were caused by bit flips, you could reasonably assume that the other software is built better because a smaller portion of their crashes is within their control.

Technology@lemmy.world•Your car’s tire sensors could be used to track youEnglish
5·21 days agoIt seems that the system is not RFID or passive, but an active system that requires a battery to transmit data. It’s far more likely that the batteries, which typically lasts about the length of time I’ve owned my car, are just drained.

111·21 days agoJokes on them. My TPMS sensors died a while ago, and I haven’t felt the need to fix it.
Now I’m a ghost! /s

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Can anyone recommend any good science communicators for a 12 year old girl?
1·20 days agoI think she’s supposed to have a new video coming soon! It’s about an interesting “photograph” of the sun.
Edit: Yay! The video is out now!
