Fed into a clear Claude Code max effort session with : "Inspect waldo2.png, and give me the pixel location of a raccoon holding a ham radio.". It sliced the image into small sections and gave:

"Found the raccoon holding a ham radio in waldo2.png (3840×2160).

  - Raccoon center: roughly (460, 1680)                                                                                            
  - Ham radio (walkie-talkie) center: roughly (505, 1650) — antenna tip around (510, 1585)                                         
  - Bounding box (raccoon + radio): approx x: 370–540, y: 1550–1780                                                                
                                                                                                                                   
  It's in the lower-left area of the image, just right of the red-and-white striped souvenir umbrella, wearing a green vest. "
Which is correct!

> though the problem with Where's Waldo tests is that I don't have the patience to solve them for sure

I see an opportunity for a new AI test!

Any reason BetaFlight doesn't appear to have even basic pre-shared key symmetric encryption? Some ciphers aren't that CPU intensive.

I wonder what will happen to Canadarm 3, as work for it has already started.

Do any of these attacks matter for single-tenant computers where all network packets are sent on a hardware timer (say, 10 kHz) independent of crypto computing? Doesn't that mitigate any side-channel timing attacks from the start?
