Tonight, we have an opportunity to bring a piece of Le Mans to you, sharing in the Legend of Le Mans with guests from different eras of over 100 years of racing.  In 2007 Adrián Fernández made his debut at Le Mans taking home a second place in a V8 powered LMP2 prototype. This was the first podium for a Mexican driver at the Circuit de la Sarthe since the 1960s.  Three years later in 2010, Adrián found himself back at Le Mans this time behind the wheel of Aston Martin's LMP1 finishing fifth in class (6th overall).  Returning for the 80th running of Le Mans in 2012, Adrián and Aston Martin took home a third place finish in the GTE-Pro class covering 332 laps without failures or serious mechanical problems. With his help, the team achieved the fastest lap in their class at 3:54.928. And Adrián had the distinct honor of driving the Aston to the checkered flag. On September 12, 2012, Adrián announced his retirement from racing, thus concluding his relationship with Aston Martin Racing, but that wasn't the end of this involvement in the world of Motorsports. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Adrian Fernandez's Le Mans Journey 01:56 Early Racing Career and Challenges 03:20 Transition to Endurance Racing 07:54 First Le Mans Experience 10:50 Challenges and Triumphs at Le Mans 13:13 The Art of Endurance Racing 21:45 Aston Martin and Later Years 24:49 Transition to GT Racing 25:58 Final Race and Reflections 29:03 Advice for Aspiring Drivers 34:37 Changes in Motorsport: Safety Innovations 38:32 Historic Cars and Modern Racing 40:55 Life After Racing 45:35 Closing Thoughts and Farewell ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: https://www.motoringpodcast.net/ Become a VIP at: https://www.patreon.com/gtmotorsports Online Magazine: https://www.gtmotorsports.org/ To learn more about or to become a member of the ACO USA, look no further than www.lemans.org, Click on English in the upper right corner and then click on the ACO members tab for Club Offers.

Dave Sowers brings electrifying news from Ram as the brand accelerates into an exciting future under returning leadership. The conversation kicks off with a glimpse at Ram's strategic shift toward more affordable options with the 2026 Ram 1500 Express. Starting at $44,495, this new trim delivers attitude and value in equal measure, featuring 20-inch wheels and monochromatic styling that makes a statement without breaking the bank.The real story unfolds when Sowers dives into the technical innovations powering Ram's lineup. The optional Hurricane straight-six engine steals the spotlight, cranking out 420 horsepower – more than the previous V8 – while delivering improved emissions and fuel economy. For those wanting extra visual impact, the Black Express package transforms the truck with blacked-out wheels, badges, and accents available in several eye-catching colors including the new Forged Blue.Heavy-duty enthusiasts have even more reason to celebrate as Sowers reveals the 6.7-liter high-output Cummins diesel is now standard across all 2500 and 3500 pickups, delivering 430 horsepower and a staggering 1,075 pound-feet of torque. But the revolutionary breakthrough comes in the form of the TorqueFlite HD eight-speed transmission that eliminates the need for customers to choose specialized axle ratios. This intelligent system provides better pulling power than previous setups while maintaining efficient highway cruising, adapting automatically to recognize when you're towing and adjusting shift patterns accordingly.Throughout our conversation, Sowers' enthusiasm for Ram's direction is palpable. "The stuff we're talking about today is just the tip of the iceberg," he reveals, hinting at more innovations on the horizon. After navigating recent corporate changes, Ram seems poised for a renaissance built on thoughtful engineering and customer-focused design that balances performance, luxury, and value.Want to experience these remarkable trucks yourself?

Historia de Tatra: ¡Vais a alucinar!

El Garaje Hermético de Máximo Sant

Me encantan los Tatra, me encanta su historia, en la que aparece Porsche, los nazis, los comunistas… Y estoy seguro que vais a alucinar con estos coches adelantados a su tiempo… ¡Y no me olvido de los camiones! A Tatra se la considera la tercera marca más antigua de la historia, tras Mercedes-Benz y Peugeot. Nació nada menos que en 1850. Y es una superviviente… Sobrevivió al espionaje industrial, sobre todo de VW. Sobrevivió a dos Guerras Mundiales. Sobrevivió a la invasión de los nazis. Sobrevivió al derrumbe del socialismo en la Europa central. Y curiosamente la división de la desaparecida Checoslovaquia, la llegada del euro y el mercado único europeo acabo con ella como fabricante de turismos, pero no de camiones… Hay mucho que contar. Primero vamos a centrarnos en los coches. En realidad, los orígenes de la marca se remontan un más lejos de 1850, nada menos que a 1820, cuando Ignác Šustala funda la compañía Nesseldorf. Pero el nombre de Tatra, en honor a los montes Tatras nace como marca en 1850 cuando se comienzan a construir coches de caballos. Y ya en 1897 compran un automóvil Benz y deciden usarlo como modelo para construir una mejor. Contaron para ello con un verdadero genio, el En 1921 bajo la dirección de Ledwinka nace el Tipo 11, un coche muy moderno para su tiempo y que para mí y para muchos, marca el primer paso en el inicio del Tatra como coches muy modernos y de concepto distinto. El periodo de entre guerras había dado lugar al nacimiento de coches interesantes, pero lo mejor estaba por venir. Y llegaría de la mano no de uno, sino de “dos”, en plural, Ledwinka. ¿Por qué digo “los” Ledwinka? Porque a Hans se le une su hijo Erich que trae muchas ideas nuevas, ideas que se reflejan en el Tatra T77 de 1934, el primer coche realmente aerodinámico de la historia del automóvil. Te pongo un ejemplo: El Mercedes-Benz EQS un modelo eléctrico del que la marca presume de su coeficiente aerodinámico CX, que es de 0,20. Estamos en 2025. Volvemos a 1934, casi 100 años antes y este Tatra T77 anunciaba un CX de… ¡0,21! ¡Casi casi! E insisto, 100 años antes. Este coche montaba un poderoso motor V8 de 3 litros de refrigeración por aire, un busca de la ligereza, que primero ofreció 65 CV y luego hasta 75 CV y que iba montado detrás… pero detrás. detrás, como el 911… o el Escarabajo. Y digo esto con segundas intenciones. No, no hubo ningún Tatra denominado “escarabajo” pero sí un Tatra T97 lanzado en 1936 con motor bóxer de 4 cilindros, aerodinámica estilo Tatra y una línea que recuerda a otro coche, inicialmente llamado Kdf-Wagen lanzado en 1938 y supuestamente diseñado por Ferdinand Porsche. Esta similitud va más allá de un parecido razonable. La versión de Ferdinand Porsche es que hablaba a menudo con Ledwinka y eso le dio alguna que otra idea. Pero Tatra, tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, demandó a VW y el litigio, que se resolvió en 1961, condeno a VW a compensar con 30 millones de marcos a Tatra… se ve antes del “diésel gate” VW ya hacia trampas. Volvamos a la Segunda Guerra Mundial, cuando Alemania invade medio Mundo y entre ese medio Mundo estaba Checoslovaquia y se encuentran con los Tatra… y a los oficiales alemanes les encantaban. En ese momento Tatra ya producía los T87, más refinados, pero también con motor trasero más grande y más potente, con versiones que rondaban los 100 CV y que superaban los 160 km/h, una velocidad de infarto en la época. Eran bonitos, distintos, bien acabados, rápidos… y muy difíciles de conducir, con ese potente V8 ahí detrás. Y los jóvenes oficiales nazis, la mayoría sin experiencia al volante, les gustaba disfrutar de la velocidad de esos coches… pero un modelo que tenía la mala costumbre de protagonizar fuertes accidentes que acabaron con la vida de muchos de ellos. Como el buen humor no falta nunca, ni en plena guerra ni entre los alemanes, la tropa llamó a estos coches “el arma secreta checoslovaca”. Los checos los llamaron los “mata nazis” y Hitler, que se ve que estaba en todo, prohibió a sus oficiales conducir esos rápidos coches. La pobre Tatra y los podres checos, en ese momento checoslovacos, no gaban para sustos. Y tras el control de país por parte de los nazis, llego el control por parte de los comunistas, pues este país era uno de los “satélites” de la extinta URSS. Pese a todo en Tatra se la ingeniaron para fabricar un nuevo modelo, el T600, pero que, dentro de la famosa, tristemente famosa, economía planificada, llamaron “Tatraplan”. En realidad, ni T600 y “Tatraplan”, era el T107 sucesor de los 77, 87 y 97. El motor, pasa de 8 a 4 cilindros bóxer, algo lógico con las penurias de la época y no es desde luego ni el mejor ni el más bonito de los Tatra. Se fabrico entre el 48 y el 51. La URSS y su zona de influencia comunista necesitaban coches de lujo… Y fruto de este problema nace el T603 un coche de calidad, muy refinado, moderno, de estética muy llamativa y con su correspondiente V8 a 90 grados, este dato no os la había dado, de 2,5 litros y 150 CV que le permitía superar con cierta holgura los 160 km/h. Pese a que el motor era ligero, no llegaba a 200 kg, y a que sus suspensiones eran muy sofisticadas para la época, seguía siendo un coche difícil de conducir… pero esto, lejos de ser un problema, hasta le daba un cierto “caché” a sus poseedores… una historia parecida a la del 911 en Norteamérica. Este modelo tuvo una larga vida, desde más o menos 1954, porque en esos momentos por razones obvias los datos no son muy fiable, hasta 1975 y fue denominado por muchos como el mejor coche del comunismo… me sumo. Tatra quería modernizar su estética y para eso contrata nada menos que a Vignale, que diseña el T613, quizás no tan original y aerodinámico, pero sí de aspecto mucho más moderno. Técnicamente era más de lo mismo, con su gran motor trasero V8 refrigerado por aire que se llevó a lo 3,5 litros y a casi 200 CV… pero los tiempos cambian y lo que en los años 70 podría ser hasta moderno, en los 80 acusaba al paso del tiempo y en los 80 y 90 era sencillamente un coche desfasado. ¿Muy atractivo? Sí. ¿Muy especial? Sí. pero desfasado. En los últimos años de su existencia se fabricaban con cuenta gotas y en total en 24 años de existencia se fabricaron alrededor de 11.000 unidades. Pero en 1999 Tatra decide dejar de fabricar coches… y centrarse en los camiones, una división en la que estaban más actualizados y en la que había tenido muchos éxitos, incluso deportivos.

Gros épisode qui couvre un large spectre de sujets : Java, Scala, Micronaut, NodeJS, l'IA et la compétence des développeurs, le sampling dans les LLMs, les DTO, le vibe coding, les changements chez Broadcom et Red Hat ainsi que plusieurs nouvelles sur les licences open source. Enregistré le 7 mai 2025 Téléchargement de l'épisode LesCastCodeurs-Episode-325.mp3 ou en vidéo sur YouTube. News Langages A l'occasion de JavaOne et du lancement de Java 24, Oracle lance un nouveau site avec des ressources vidéo pour apprendre le langage https://learn.java/ site plutôt à destination des débutants et des enseignants couvre la syntaxe aussi, y compris les ajouts plus récents comme les records ou le pattern matching c'est pas le site le plus trendy du monde. Martin Odersky partage un long article sur l'état de l'écosystème Scala et les évolutions du language https://www.scala-lang.org/blog/2025/03/24/evolving-scala.html Stabilité et besoin d'évolution : Scala maintient sa position (~14ème mondial) avec des bases techniques solides, mais doit évoluer face à la concurrence pour rester pertinent. Axes prioritaires : L'évolution se concentre sur l'amélioration du duo sécurité/convivialité, le polissage du langage (suppression des “rugosités”) et la simplification pour les débutants. Innovation continue : Geler les fonctionnalités est exclu ; l'innovation est clé pour la valeur de Scala. Le langage doit rester généraliste et ne pas se lier à un framework spécifique. Défis et progrès : L'outillage (IDE, outils de build comme sbt, scala-cli, Mill) et la facilité d'apprentissage de l'écosystème sont des points d'attention, avec des améliorations en cours (partenariat pédagogique, plateformes simples). Des strings encore plus rapides ! https://inside.java/2025/05/01/strings-just-got-faster/ Dans JDK 25, la performance de la fonction String::hashCode a été améliorée pour être principalement constant foldable. Cela signifie que si les chaînes de caractères sont utilisées comme clés dans une Map statique et immuable, des gains de performance significatifs sont probables. L'amélioration repose sur l'annotation interne @Stable appliquée au champ privé String.hash. Cette annotation permet à la machine virtuelle de lire la valeur du hash une seule fois et de la considérer comme constante si elle n'est pas la valeur par défaut (zéro). Par conséquent, l'opération String::hashCode peut être remplacée par la valeur de hash connue, optimisant ainsi les lookups dans les Map immuables. Un cas limite est celui où le code de hachage de la chaîne est zéro, auquel cas l'optimisation ne fonctionne pas (par exemple, pour la chaîne vide “”). Bien que l'annotation @Stable soit interne au JDK, un nouveau JEP (JEP 502: Stable Values (Preview)) est en cours de développement pour permettre aux utilisateurs de bénéficier indirectement de fonctionnalités similaires. AtomicHash, une implémentation Java d'une HashMap qui est thread-safe, atomique et non-bloquante https://github.com/arxila/atomichash implémenté sous forme de version immutable de Concurrent Hash Trie Librairies Sortie de Micronaut 4.8.0 https://micronaut.io/2025/04/01/micronaut-framework-4-8-0-released/ Mise à jour de la BOM (Bill of Materials) : La version 4.8.0 met à jour la BOM de la plateforme Micronaut. Améliorations de Micronaut Core : Intégration de Micronaut SourceGen pour la génération interne de métadonnées et d'expressions bytecode. Nombreuses améliorations dans Micronaut SourceGen. Ajout du traçage de l'injection de dépendances pour faciliter le débogage au démarrage et à la création des beans. Nouveau membre definitionType dans l'annotation @Client pour faciliter le partage d'interfaces entre client et serveur. Support de la fusion dans les Bean Mappers via l'annotation @Mapping. Nouvelle liveness probe détectant les threads bloqués (deadlocked) via ThreadMXBean. Intégration Kubernetes améliorée : Mise à jour du client Java Kubernetes vers la version 22.0.1. Ajout du module Micronaut Kubernetes Client OpenAPI, offrant une alternative au client officiel avec moins de dépendances, une configuration unifiée, le support des filtres et la compatibilité Native Image. Introduction d'un nouveau runtime serveur basé sur le serveur HTTP intégré de Java, permettant de créer des applications sans dépendances serveur externes. Ajout dans Micronaut Micrometer d'un module pour instrumenter les sources de données (traces et métriques). Ajout de la condition condition dans l'annotation @MetricOptions pour contrôler l'activation des métriques via une expression. Support des Consul watches dans Micronaut Discovery Client pour détecter les changements de configuration distribuée. Possibilité de générer du code source à partir d'un schéma JSON via les plugins de build (Gradle et Maven). Web Node v24.0.0 passe en version Current: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/release/v24.0.0 Mise à jour du moteur V8 vers la version 13.6 : intégration de nouvelles fonctionnalités JavaScript telles que Float16Array, la gestion explicite des ressources (using), RegExp.escape, WebAssembly Memory64 et Error.isError. npm 11 inclus : améliorations en termes de performance, de sécurité et de compatibilité avec les packages JavaScript modernes. Changement de compilateur pour Windows : abandon de MSVC au profit de ClangCL pour la compilation de Node.js sur Windows. AsyncLocalStorage utilise désormais AsyncContextFrame par défaut : offrant une gestion plus efficace du contexte asynchrone. URLPattern disponible globalement : plus besoin d'importer explicitement cette API pour effectuer des correspondances d'URL. Améliorations du modèle de permissions : le flag expérimental --experimental-permission devient --permission, signalant une stabilité accrue de cette fonctionnalité. Améliorations du test runner : les sous-tests sont désormais attendus automatiquement, simplifiant l'écriture des tests et réduisant les erreurs liées aux promesses non gérées. Intégration d'Undici 7 : amélioration des capacités du client HTTP avec de meilleures performances et un support étendu des fonctionnalités HTTP modernes. Dépréciations et suppressions : Dépréciation de url.parse() au profit de l'API WHATWG URL. Suppression de tls.createSecurePair. Dépréciation de SlowBuffer. Dépréciation de l'instanciation de REPL sans new. Dépréciation de l'utilisation des classes Zlib sans new. Dépréciation du passage de args à spawn et execFile dans child_process. Node.js 24 est actuellement la version “Current” et deviendra une version LTS en octobre 2025. Il est recommandé de tester cette version pour évaluer son impact sur vos applications. Data et Intelligence Artificielle Apprendre à coder reste crucial et l'IA est là pour venir en aide : https://kyrylo.org/software/2025/03/27/learn-to-code-ignore-ai-then-use-ai-to-code-even-better.html Apprendre à coder reste essentiel malgré l'IA. L'IA peut assister la programmation. Une solide base est cruciale pour comprendre et contrôler le code. Cela permet d'éviter la dépendance à l'IA. Cela réduit le risque de remplacement par des outils d'IA accessibles à tous. L'IA est un outil, pas un substitut à la maîtrise des fondamentaux. Super article de Anthropic qui essaie de comprendre comment fonctionne la “pensée” des LLMs https://www.anthropic.com/research/tracing-thoughts-language-model Effet boîte noire : Stratégies internes des IA (Claude) opaques aux développeurs et utilisateurs. Objectif : Comprendre le “raisonnement” interne pour vérifier capacités et intentions. Méthode : Inspiration neurosciences, développement d'un “microscope IA” (regarder quels circuits neuronaux s'activent). Technique : Identification de concepts (“features”) et de “circuits” internes. Multilinguisme : Indice d'un “langage de pensée” conceptuel commun à toutes les langues avant de traduire dans une langue particulière. Planification : Capacité à anticiper (ex: rimes en poésie), pas seulement de la génération mot par mot (token par token). Raisonnement non fidèle : Peut fabriquer des arguments plausibles (“bullshitting”) pour une conclusion donnée. Logique multi-étapes : Combine des faits distincts, ne se contente pas de mémoriser. Hallucinations : Refus par défaut ; réponse si “connaissance” active, sinon risque d'hallucination si erreur. “Jailbreaks” : Tension entre cohérence grammaticale (pousse à continuer) et sécurité (devrait refuser). Bilan : Méthodes limitées mais prometteuses pour la transparence et la fiabilité de l'IA.

Les fallacies derrière la citation “AI won't replace you, but humans using AI will” https://platforms.substack.com/cp/161356485 La fallacie de l'automatisation vs. l'augmentation : Elle se concentre sur l'amélioration des tâches existantes avec l'IA au lieu de considérer le changement de la valeur de ces tâches dans un nouveau système. La fallacie des gains de productivité : L'augmentation de la productivité ne se traduit pas toujours par plus de valeur pour les travailleurs, car la valeur créée peut être capturée ailleurs dans le système. La fallacie des emplois statiques : Les emplois sont des constructions organisationnelles qui peuvent être redéfinies par l'IA, rendant les rôles traditionnels obsolètes. La fallacie de la compétition “moi vs. quelqu'un utilisant l'IA” : La concurrence évolue lorsque l'IA modifie les contraintes fondamentales d'un secteur, rendant les compétences existantes moins pertinentes. La fallacie de la continuité du flux de travail : L'IA peut entraîner une réimagination complète des flux de travail, éliminant le besoin de certaines compétences. La fallacie des outils neutres : Les outils d'IA ne sont pas neutres et peuvent redistribuer le pouvoir organisationnel en changeant la façon dont les décisions sont prises et exécutées. La fallacie du salaire stable : Le maintien d'un emploi ne garantit pas un salaire stable, car la valeur du travail peut diminuer avec l'augmentation des capacités de l'IA. La fallacie de l'entreprise stable : L'intégration de l'IA nécessite une restructuration de l'entreprise et ne se fait pas dans un vide organisationnel. Comprendre le “sampling” dans les LLMs https://rentry.co/samplers Explique pourquoi les LLMs utilisent des tokens Les différentes méthodes de “sampling” : càd de choix de tokens Les hyperparamètres comme la température, top-p, et leur influence réciproque Les algorithmes de tokenisation comme Byte Pair Encoding et SentencePiece. Un de moins … OpenAI va racheter Windsurf pour 3 milliards de dollars. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-06/openai-reaches-agreement-to-buy-startup-windsurf-for-3-billion l'accord n'est pas encore finalisé Windsurf était valorisé à 1,25 milliards l'an dernier et OpenAI a levé 40 milliards dernièrement portant sa valeur à 300 milliards Le but pour OpenAI est de rentrer dans le monde des assistants de code pour lesquels ils sont aujourd'hui absent Docker desktop se met à l'IA… ? Une nouvelle fonctionnalité dans docker desktop 4.4 sur macos: Docker Model Runner https://dev.to/docker/run-genai-models-locally-with-docker-model-runner-5elb Permet de faire tourner des modèles nativement en local ( https://docs.docker.com/model-runner/ ) mais aussi des serveurs MCP ( https://docs.docker.com/ai/mcp-catalog-and-toolkit/ ) Outillage Jetbrains défend la suppression des commentaires négatifs sur son assistant IA https://devclass.com/2025/04/30/jetbrains-defends-removal-of-negative-reviews-for-unpopular-ai-assistant/?td=rt-3a L'IA Assistant de JetBrains, lancée en juillet 2023, a été téléchargée plus de 22 millions de fois mais n'est notée que 2,3 sur 5. Des utilisateurs ont remarqué que certaines critiques négatives étaient supprimées, ce qui a provoqué une réaction négative sur les réseaux sociaux. Un employé de JetBrains a expliqué que les critiques ont été supprimées soit parce qu'elles mentionnaient des problèmes déjà résolus, soit parce qu'elles violaient leur politique concernant les “grossièretés, etc.” L'entreprise a reconnu qu'elle aurait pu mieux gérer la situation, un représentant déclarant : “Supprimer plusieurs critiques d'un coup sans préavis semblait suspect. Nous aurions dû au moins publier un avis et fournir plus de détails aux auteurs.” Parmi les problèmes de l'IA Assistant signalés par les utilisateurs figurent : un support limité pour les fournisseurs de modèles tiers, une latence notable, des ralentissements fréquents, des fonctionnalités principales verrouillées aux services cloud de JetBrains, une expérience utilisateur incohérente et une documentation insuffisante. Une plainte courante est que l'IA Assistant s'installe sans permission. Un utilisateur sur Reddit l'a qualifié de “plugin agaçant qui s'auto-répare/se réinstalle comme un phénix”. JetBrains a récemment introduit un niveau gratuit et un nouvel agent IA appelé Junie, destiné à fonctionner parallèlement à l'IA Assistant, probablement en réponse à la concurrence entre fournisseurs. Mais il est plus char a faire tourner. La société s'est engagée à explorer de nouvelles approches pour traiter les mises à jour majeures différemment et envisage d'implémenter des critiques par version ou de marquer les critiques comme “Résolues” avec des liens vers les problèmes correspondants au lieu de les supprimer. Contrairement à des concurrents comme Microsoft, AWS ou Google, JetBrains commercialise uniquement des outils et services de développement et ne dispose pas d'une activité cloud distincte sur laquelle s'appuyer. Vos images de README et fichiers Markdown compatibles pour le dark mode de GitHub: https://github.blog/developer-skills/github/how-to-make-your-images-in-markdown-on-github-adjust-for-dark-mode-and-light-mode/ Seulement quelques lignes de pure HTML pour le faire Architecture Alors, les DTOs, c'est bien ou c'est pas bien ? https://codeopinion.com/dtos-mapping-the-good-the-bad-and-the-excessive/ Utilité des DTOs : Les DTOs servent à transférer des données entre les différentes couches d'une application, en mappant souvent les données entre différentes représentations (par exemple, entre la base de données et l'interface utilisateur). Surutilisation fréquente : L'article souligne que les DTOs sont souvent utilisés de manière excessive, notamment pour créer des API HTTP qui ne font que refléter les entités de la base de données, manquant ainsi l'opportunité de composer des données plus riches. Vraie valeur : La valeur réelle des DTOs réside dans la gestion du couplage entre les couches et la composition de données provenant de sources multiples en formes optimisées pour des cas d'utilisation spécifiques. Découplage : Il est suggéré d'utiliser les DTOs pour découpler les modèles de données internes des contrats externes (comme les API), ce qui permet une évolution et une gestion des versions indépendantes. Exemple avec CQRS : Dans le cadre de CQRS (Command Query Responsibility Segregation), les réponses aux requêtes (queries) agissent comme des DTOs spécifiquement adaptés aux besoins de l'interface utilisateur, pouvant inclure des données de diverses sources. Protection des données internes : Les DTOs aident à distinguer et protéger les modèles de données internes (privés) des changements externes (publics). Éviter l'excès : L'auteur met en garde contre les couches de mapping excessives (mapper un DTO vers un autre DTO) qui n'apportent pas de valeur ajoutée. Création ciblée : Il est conseillé de ne créer des DTOs que lorsqu'ils résolvent des problèmes concrets, tels que la gestion du couplage ou la facilitation de la composition de données. Méthodologies Même Guillaume se met au “vibe coding” https://glaforge.dev/posts/2025/05/02/vibe-coding-an-mcp-server-with-micronaut-and-gemini/ Selon Andrey Karpathy, c'est le fait de POC-er un proto, une appli jetable du weekend https://x.com/karpathy/status/1886192184808149383 Mais Simon Willison s'insurge que certains confondent coder avec l'assistance de l'IA avec le vibe coding https://simonwillison.net/2025/May/1/not-vibe-coding/ Guillaume c'est ici amusé à développer un serveur MCP avec Micronaut, en utilisant Gemini, l'IA de Google. Contrairement à Quarkus ou Spring Boot, Micronaut n'a pas encore de module ou de support spécifique pour faciliter la création de serveur MCP Sécurité Une faille de sécurité 10/10 sur Tomcat https://www.it-connect.fr/apache-tomcat-cette-faille-activement-exploitee-seulement-30-heures-apres-sa-divulgation-patchez/ Une faille de sécurité critique (CVE-2025-24813) affecte Apache Tomcat, permettant l'exécution de code à distance Cette vulnérabilité est activement exploitée seulement 30 heures après sa divulgation du 10 mars 2025 L'attaque ne nécessite aucune authentification et est particulièrement simple à exécuter Elle utilise une requête PUT avec une charge utile Java sérialisée encodée en base64, suivie d'une requête GET L'encodage en base64 permet de contourner la plupart des filtres de sécurité Les serveurs vulnérables utilisent un stockage de session basé sur des fichiers (configuration répandue) Les versions affectées sont : 11.0.0-M1 à 11.0.2, 10.1.0-M1 à 10.1.34, et 9.0.0.M1 à 9.0.98 Les mises à jour recommandées sont : 11.0.3+, 10.1.35+ et 9.0.99+ Les experts prévoient des attaques plus sophistiquées dans les prochaines phases d'exploitation (upload de config ou jsp) Sécurisation d'un serveur ssh https://ittavern.com/ssh-server-hardening/ un article qui liste les configurations clés pour sécuriser un serveur SSH par exemple, enlever password authentigfication, changer de port, desactiver le login root, forcer le protocol ssh 2, certains que je ne connaissais pas comme MaxStartups qui limite le nombre de connections non authentifiées concurrentes Port knocking est une technique utile mais demande une approche cliente consciente du protocol Oracle admet que les identités IAM de ses clients ont leaké https://www.theregister.com/2025/04/08/oracle_cloud_compromised/ Oracle a confirmé à certains clients que son cloud public a été compromis, alors que l'entreprise avait précédemment nié toute intrusion. Un pirate informatique a revendiqué avoir piraté deux serveurs d'authentification d'Oracle et volé environ six millions d'enregistrements, incluant des clés de sécurité privées, des identifiants chiffrés et des entrées LDAP. La faille exploitée serait la vulnérabilité CVE-2021-35587 dans Oracle Access Manager, qu'Oracle n'avait pas corrigée sur ses propres systèmes. Le pirate a créé un fichier texte début mars sur login.us2.oraclecloud.com contenant son adresse email pour prouver son accès. Selon Oracle, un ancien serveur contenant des données vieilles de huit ans aurait été compromis, mais un client affirme que des données de connexion aussi récentes que 2024 ont été dérobées. Oracle fait face à un procès au Texas concernant cette violation de données. Cette intrusion est distincte d'une autre attaque contre Oracle Health, sur laquelle l'entreprise refuse de commenter. Oracle pourrait faire face à des sanctions sous le RGPD européen qui exige la notification des parties affectées dans les 72 heures suivant la découverte d'une fuite de données. Le comportement d'Oracle consistant à nier puis à admettre discrètement l'intrusion est inhabituel en 2025 et pourrait mener à d'autres actions en justice collectives. Une GitHub action très populaire compromise https://www.stepsecurity.io/blog/harden-runner-detection-tj-actions-changed-files-action-is-compromised Compromission de l'action tj-actions/changed-files : En mars 2025, une action GitHub très utilisée (tj-actions/changed-files) a été compromise. Des versions modifiées de l'action ont exposé des secrets CI/CD dans les logs de build. Méthode d'attaque : Un PAT compromis a permis de rediriger plusieurs tags de version vers un commit contenant du code malveillant. Détails du code malveillant : Le code injecté exécutait une fonction Node.js encodée en base64, qui téléchargeait un script Python. Ce script parcourait la mémoire du runner GitHub à la recherche de secrets (tokens, clés…) et les exposait dans les logs. Dans certains cas, les données étaient aussi envoyées via une requête réseau. Période d'exposition : Les versions compromises étaient actives entre le 12 et le 15 mars 2025. Tout dépôt, particulièrement ceux publiques, ayant utilisé l'action pendant cette période doit être considéré comme potentiellement exposé. Détection : L'activité malveillante a été repérée par l'analyse des comportements inhabituels pendant l'exécution des workflows, comme des connexions réseau inattendues. Réaction : GitHub a supprimé l'action compromise, qui a ensuite été nettoyée. Impact potentiel : Tous les secrets apparaissant dans les logs doivent être considérés comme compromis, même dans les dépôts privés, et régénérés sans délai. Loi, société et organisation Les startup the YCombinateur ont les plus fortes croissances de leur histoire https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/15/y-combinator-startups-are-fastest-growing-in-fund-history-because-of-ai.html Les entreprises en phase de démarrage à Silicon Valley connaissent une croissance significative grâce à l'intelligence artificielle. Le PDG de Y Combinator, Garry Tan, affirme que l'ensemble des startups de la dernière cohorte a connu une croissance hebdomadaire de 10% pendant neuf mois. L'IA permet aux développeurs d'automatiser des tâches répétitives et de générer du code grâce aux grands modèles de langage. Pour environ 25% des startups actuelles de YC, 95% de leur code a été écrit par l'IA. Cette révolution permet aux entreprises de se développer avec moins de personnel - certaines atteignant 10 millions de dollars de revenus avec moins de 10 employés. La mentalité de “croissance à tout prix” a été remplacée par un renouveau d'intérêt pour la rentabilité. Environ 80% des entreprises présentées lors du “demo day” étaient centrées sur l'IA, avec quelques startups en robotique et semi-conducteurs. Y Combinator investit 500 000 dollars dans les startups en échange d'une participation au capital, suivi d'un programme de trois mois. Red Hat middleware (ex-jboss) rejoint IBM https://markclittle.blogspot.com/2025/03/red-hat-middleware-moving-to-ibm.html Les activités Middleware de Red Hat (incluant JBoss, Quarkus, etc.) vont être transférées vers IBM, dans l'unité dédiée à la sécurité des données, à l'IAM et aux runtimes. Ce changement découle d'une décision stratégique de Red Hat de se concentrer davantage sur le cloud hybride et l'intelligence artificielle. Mark Little explique que ce transfert était devenu inévitable, Red Hat ayant réduit ses investissements dans le Middleware ces dernières années. L'intégration vise à renforcer l'innovation autour de Java en réunissant les efforts de Red Hat et IBM sur ce sujet. Les produits Middleware resteront open source et les clients continueront à bénéficier du support habituel sans changement. Mark Little affirme que des projets comme Quarkus continueront à être soutenus et que cette évolution est bénéfique pour la communauté Java. Un an de commonhaus https://www.commonhaus.org/activity/253.html un an, démarré sur les communautés qu'ils connaissaient bien maintenant 14 projets et put en accepter plus confiance, gouvernance legère et proteger le futur des projets automatisation de l'administratif, stabiilité sans complexité, les developpeurs au centre du processus de décision ils ont besoins de members et supporters (financiers) ils veulent accueillir des projets au delà de ceux du cercles des Java Champions Spring Cloud Data Flow devient un produit commercial et ne sera plus maintenu en open source https://spring.io/blog/2025/04/21/spring-cloud-data-flow-commercial Peut-être sous l'influence de Broadcom, Spring se met à mettre en mode propriétaire des composants du portefeuille Spring ils disent que peu de gens l'utilisaent en mode OSS et la majorité venait d'un usage dans la plateforme Tanzu Maintenir en open source le coutent du temps qu'ils son't pas sur ces projets. La CNCF protège le projet NATS, dans la fondation depuis 2018, vu que la société Synadia qui y contribue souhaitait reprendre le contrôle du projet https://www.cncf.io/blog/2025/04/24/protecting-nats-and-the-integrity-of-open-source-cncfs-commitment-to-the-community/ CNCF : Protège projets OS, gouvernance neutre. Synadia vs CNCF : Veut retirer NATS, licence non-OS (BUSL). CNCF : Accuse Synadia de “claw back” (reprise illégitime). Revendications Synadia : Domaine nats.io, orga GitHub. Marque NATS : Synadia n'a pas transféré (promesse rompue malgré aide CNCF). Contestation Synadia : Juge règles CNCF “trop vagues”. Vote interne : Mainteneurs Synadia votent sortie CNCF (sans communauté). Support CNCF : Investissement majeur ($ audits, légal), succès communautaire (>700 orgs). Avenir NATS (CNCF) : Maintien sous Apache 2.0, gouvernance ouverte. Actions CNCF : Health check, appel mainteneurs, annulation marque Synadia, rejet demandes. Mais finalement il semble y avoir un bon dénouement : https://www.cncf.io/announcements/2025/05/01/cncf-and-synadia-align-on-securing-the-future-of-the-nats-io-project/ Accord pour l'avenir de NATS.io : La Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) et Synadia ont conclu un accord pour sécuriser le futur du projet NATS.io. Transfert des marques NATS : Synadia va céder ses deux enregistrements de marque NATS à la Linux Foundation afin de renforcer la gouvernance ouverte du projet. Maintien au sein de la CNCF : L'infrastructure et les actifs du projet NATS resteront sous l'égide de la CNCF, garantissant ainsi sa stabilité à long terme et son développement en open source sous licence Apache-2.0. Reconnaissance et engagement : La Linux Foundation, par la voix de Todd Moore, reconnaît les contributions de Synadia et son soutien continu. Derek Collison, PDG de Synadia, réaffirme l'engagement de son entreprise envers NATS et la collaboration avec la Linux Foundation et la CNCF. Adoption et soutien communautaire : NATS est largement adopté et considéré comme une infrastructure critique. Il bénéficie d'un fort soutien de la communauté pour sa nature open source et l'implication continue de Synadia. Finalement, Redis revient vers une licence open source OSI, avec la AGPL https://foojay.io/today/redis-is-now-available-under-the-agplv3-open-source-license/ Redis passe à la licence open source AGPLv3 pour contrer l'exploitation par les fournisseurs cloud sans contribution. Le passage précédent à la licence SSPL avait nui à la relation avec la communauté open source. Salvatore Sanfilippo (antirez) est revenu chez Redis. Redis 8 adopte la licence AGPL, intègre les fonctionnalités de Redis Stack (JSON, Time Series, etc.) et introduit les “vector sets” (le support de calcul vectoriel développé par Salvatore). Ces changements visent à renforcer Redis en tant que plateforme appréciée des développeurs, conformément à la vision initiale de Salvatore.

Coches bonitos ¡y familiares!

El Garaje Hermético de Máximo Sant

Ya sabéis que para temas de coches y estética soy muy raro… me encanta el primer Multipla, con eso está dicho todo. Pero seguro que estamos de acuerdo todos en que los coches más bonitos son los coupés y descapotables, pero ¿y después? Para mí, sin duda, los familiares, rancheras, break o como quieras llamarlos. ¡Me encantan esos coches! Ya os anticipo que como secuela de este video estamos trabajando en otro que se titulara “Los coupés más bonitos de la historia”, o algo parecido. Trataré de huir de los “hiper deportivos” para centrarme en coupés más asequibles… Y es que me parecen más bonitos los coupés que los descapotables… Pero creo que estilísticamente los coupés son coches más equilibrados, pues a los descapotables, evidentemente cuando están descapotados, les falta “algo”. No discuto su capacidad de seducción… ¡si tengo uno! Pero como diseño, mejor los coupé… Y luego, los familiares. Y no, no lo digo por practicidad ni nada parecido, los digo centrándome exclusivamente en la estética. Los familiares me parecen más equilibrados que las berlinas y desde luego, mucho más que los SUV… pero en este video… ¡no hay sitio para los SUV! Solo para coches especialmente bonitos, para alguno a pesar de ser familiares y para mí, precisamente por serlo. Vamos con esta lista de 10 más el inevitable “bonus track”. 1. Saab 95 Break (1959). Sabéis mi debilidad por la marca Saab, una marca que fabricaba aviones y que decidió hacer coches con tecnología aeronáutica y también con cierto aire estético similar a los aviones. 2. Seat 1500 Familiar (1965). El Seat 1500 sustituía al 1400 de línea muy anticuada… salvo el 1400 C que compartía carrocería con el 1500. Era y es un coche bonito, uno de esos coches que me parecen más bonitos en su versión familiar que en la versión berlina. 3. Dodge Dart Barreiros Familiar (1967). Aunque este coche se anunció en año antes, su comercialización comenzó en 1967, dos años después de lanzarse la berlina… No tuvo un gran éxito, porque el Dodge en España era el paradigma del lujo y en esos tiempos lujo y carrocería familiar no se entendían juntos. 4. Citroën CX Break (1976). El CX se presentó y 1974 y quizás no fue tan rupturista e innovador como su predecesor, el DS, pero si resultaba impresionante… de hecho, lo sigue resultando ahora, más de 50 años después. ¡Qué pasada de coche! 5. Volvo 850 T5 R (1995). Este coche es muy interesante, pues no solo es bonito y potente, sino que tiene una historia en la que esta involucrada Porsche. 6. BMW Serie 3 Touring (1999). Hablamos del E46, la cuarta generación de este modelo. Un modelo que conozco bien, porque tuve uno. Me compré el 328i con motor de 6 cilindros, 2,8 litros y 193 CV. Se puede decir que fue mi primer “coche bueno”… creo que es uno de los coches que más ilusión me ha hecho en mi vida. 7. Alfa Romeo 156 (2000). Recuerdo la presentación internacional en Milán del Alfa Romeo 156 en 1996… no lo puedo olvidar porque pude hablar con mi admirado Giugiaro, probar el coche que suponía un punto de inflexión en la trayectoria de una marca por la que tenía debilidad, Alfa Romeo, y cenar en el famoso restaurante Fra Diavolo, según me dijeron el favorito de Giovanni Agnelli. 8. Audi A4 Avant (2001). Audi llama Avant a sus rancheras o familiares, un nombre bonito. Y me ha costado elegir un Avant, porque me suelen gustar casi todos los Audi Avant. Pero el A4 B6, para entendernos, el de la segunda generación que va de 2001 a 2005, me parece bonito, equilibrado y un muy buen coche. 9. Mercedes-Benz CLS Shooting Brake (2012) Mercedes había lanzado en 2004 el CLS, una berlina-coupé de cuatro puertas, muy atractiva, aunque quizás no muy útil por su relativamente escasa habitabilidad posterior en altura. Pero lanzaron la carrocería familiar denominada Shooting Brake. 10. Jaguar XF Sportbrake (2012). ¡Un diésel! Primero lo vi en el Salón de Ginebra de 2012 y muy poco después pude probarlo. Y es que este modelo fue el segundo Jaguar con carrocería familiar y el primero con motor diésel. Otro coche que conozco muy bien, pues me tocó organizar un evento para la marca. Bonus Track: Chevrolet Caprice Break (1971). Hablo de la segunda generación, la que va de 1971 a 1976… Y es que en 1976 yo trabajaba con mi padre en la base militar norteamericana de Torrejón de Ardoz, a 30 km de Madrid. Y vi este coche en versión break… pensé ¡quiero uno! A mis ojos de adolescente ese coche con tanto equipamiento eléctrico, elevalunas, la luna posterior cuyo cristal era practicable y el sonido del motor V8, me encandilaba. Recuerdo que uno de los norteamericanos con los que podíamos hablar tenía uno y se jactaba de tener el más potente, con motor Jet V8 454 y 365 CV. La denominación 454 provenía de la cilindrada en pulgadas cubicas, en cm3 nada menos que 7,5 litros. Conclusión. ¡Me encantan los coches familiares! Y ahora no tengo ninguno. Así que estoy pensando en hacer un video que se titule algo así como “Familiares interesantes y asequibles” ... a lo mejor, me acabo comprado uno. Me encantaría.

Will carbs on V8 hotrods etc become a thing of the past when some alternatives are this easy?For those unfamiliar with ECU tuning, switching from a carburettor (carb) to EFI can seem daunting, but it doesn't have to be. The ‪@EdelbrockUSA‬ Pro-Flo 4 is designed to make the transition as simple and hassle-free as possible. With pre-calibrated sensors, a self-tuning system, and an easy-to-use app, this sequential port injection system eliminates the need for a laptop, making it one of the most user-friendly EFI solutions on the market with plug-and-play options for the Gen 3 or 4 LS, Gen 1 or 2 Ford Coyote and Chrysler Gen 3 HEMI V8's.Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inUnlike traditional throttle body injection (TBI) systems that mimic a carb, the Pro-Flo 4 offers true multi-point injection, improving fuel atomization, drivability, and efficiency. Injector and fuel system selection are simplified, with kits available for different power levels, and installation is made easy with a fully terminated wiring harness that requires no crimping or cutting. The distributor-based ignition system means there's no need for an additional crank trigger, further reducing complexity.The system features closed-loop control that continually learns and adapts while driving, improving fuel mapping in real-time. For those worried about fine-tuning aspects like cold starts and transient enrichment, the Edelbrock E-Tuner App provides intuitive adjustments using familiar carburetor-style terminology. This ensures that even those new to EFI can confidently dial in their setup.TIME STAMPS:0:00 - Carb to EFI0:16 - Mark Honsowetz0:22 - Edelbrock Pro-Flo 4 EFI1:09 - Self Tuning1:38 - Entry Level Tuning Option2:15 - Simple Installation2:44 - Injector Selection3:17 - Fuel System Selection3:56 - Ignition System Setup4:40 - Edelbrock E-Tuner App4:51 - No Crank Trigger5:20 - Pre-Calibrated Sensors5:40 - Aftermarket Cams6:40 - Closed Loop Control7:10 - Needs Varied Driving To Learn7:42 - Dyno Tuning8:30 - Cold Start, Transient Enrichment etc9:41 - Tuning Made Fun10:00 - Edelbrock Pricing10:27 - Batch vs Sequential Fire11:10 - Edelbrock11:21 - BUILD.T

They go into business - to electrify Dodge muscle cars - that provide the sounds to fool the customer into thinking they're listening to a V8 while they're just hearing an electric motor spin. Did we mention this movie came out in 2011? In between the car drama, Kevin James wife is cheating on him (and he's doing a few shameful things too). Vince Vaughn is stuck in the dilemma of trying to protect his best friend while dealing with the doubt of others from his past as a gambling addict. The end result is that we get an entirely movie of hilarity and HEMI powered classic Dodges - just for fun! This movie has "real" other actors too! Winona Rider, Jennifer Connately, Channing Tatum, and Queen Latifah round out the ensemble. Even more impressive, the director was a big name too; Ron Howard! I'm telling you, in 2011 someone at Dodge saw this movie and just copied the whole thing. 14 years later, it's a realty. The new 2025 Charger is electric and has a speaker system of V8 sounds. Even better, we get a bro movie between Vince Vaughn and Kevin James. The only thing that would make it better is if it were Paul Blart Mall Cop 3!

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1015: Today we're diving into how global tensions are reshaping Tesla's China strategy, why car buyers rushed showrooms ahead of auto tariffs, and why Harvard says better mentoring might be the secret to fixing retail's revolving door of turnover.Show Notes with links:Tesla has stopped taking orders for its U.S.-made Model S sedans and Model X crossovers in China as trade tensions between the U.S. and China flare up once again.China will increase tariffs on U.S. goods to 125% on April 12, including autos.Tesla's Model S and X are built in Fremont, California, making them directly affected.The option to order these models disappeared from Tesla's China site in early April.Tesla's Shanghai factory, which makes the Model 3 and Y, isn't affected by the new tariffs.Model S and X made up fewer than 2,000 of Tesla's 661,000+ Chinese sales last year.A spike in new car sales last month wasn't just spring fever. According to Cloud Theory, auto shoppers raced to dealerships in March to beat looming tariffs.March saw 1.31 million new vehicles sold — a 38% jump from February.Cloud Theory attributes 153,000 of those sales to fear of impending price hikes from tariffs.Average marketed prices rose $1,123 from late February through March with SUVs, full-size pickups, and heavy duty trucks seeing the most increase — thanks to V8 engines sourced from Canada.Discounts and incentives dropped by $432 in March as OEMs braced for higher costs.“While this led to very strong results in the short term… the longer-term effects will likely be highly detrimental,” said Cloud Theory's Rick Wainschel.A new Harvard study says the key to lowering retail's notoriously high turnover may be simpler than we think: invest in frontline workers' career growth and mentorship.Researchers found that most low-wage workers actually want to keep their jobs to avoid disruption in their lives — especially once they're comfortable with their coworkers.Over 60% said they'd stay with their employer if they saw a real path to advance, but with many supervisors overseeing up to 20 employees, personalized feedback and coaching are rare.Employees often fear asking for promotions or raises, worried it might cost them their jobs.A related McKinsey study also showed career development was the top reason non-managers wanted to leave. Their advice? Empower managers — because their impact cascades throughout the whole organization.Join hosts Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Tucked away in Brookshire, Texas stands a temple to American automotive culture that defies expectations. This week, we broadcast live from HEMI Hideout, where owner John Hovis welcomes us into what he modestly describes as "a man cave that got a little bit out of control."The result is breathtaking – over 4,500 pieces of rare automotive memorabilia and signage covering nearly every available surface, alongside a meticulously curated collection of classic Mopar muscle cars. Walking through HEMI Hideout feels like stepping into a time capsule, with neon and porcelain signs dating back to the early 1900s creating a dazzling backdrop for Detroit's finest horsepower machines.John shares fascinating stories about his collection process, revealing that only 7% of his 324 neon signs are actually illuminated – an optical illusion that makes the space feel even more vibrant and alive. The wooden interior siding carries its own history, salvaged from his grandparents' two-story dry goods store built in Brookshire during the late 1800s.The automotive highlights are equally impressive, from an 880-horsepower 1968 Dodge Charger to a 750-horsepower 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner. John's collecting philosophy is refreshingly practical: "Buy these cars already done – you can do this yourself and then it's worth half what you spent." Each vehicle has a personality, including a 1970 Dodge Charger RT nicknamed "Nadine" that John describes as "possessed," keeping a wrecker on speed dial whenever he takes it out.Despite the seemingly packed spaces, John reveals the collection continues growing, with several significant signs added just months before our visit. "It looks full," he notes with a collector's gleam in his eye, "but it's never going to be full."

The automotive world spans an incredible spectrum from practical daily drivers to ultra-luxury vehicles that cost more than many homes. We dive deep into both extremes with our detailed examinations of the completely redesigned 2025 Infinity QX80 Autograph AWD and the efficient 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE AWD.The third-generation QX80 represents Infinity's flagship luxury SUV, combining imposing presence with incredible comfort features. With heated, ventilated, and massaging seats for both front and second-row occupants, a cutting-edge 14.3-inch touchscreen, digital instruments, and advanced safety features, this seven-passenger behemoth delivers a first-class experience. Powered by a twin-turbocharged V6 generating 450 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque, it also offers substantial capability with 8,500 pounds of towing capacity. We explore whether its smooth air ride suspension, opulent quilted leather, and 24-speaker Klipsch audio system justify the eye-watering $113,965 price tag (yes, that includes the $355 optional umbrella holder).Between our modern SUV reviews, we take a fascinating detour into automotive history with the overlooked 1971 Plymouth GTX. This gorgeous Mopar muscle car arrived just as the muscle car era was winding down, resulting in limited production despite its stunning fastback styling and powerful 440 cubic inch V8 options. With only 326 examples produced with the desirable 440+6 and four-speed manual transmission, values have skyrocketed to $150,000+ for well-restored examples.Finally, we examine the American-built 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE AWD, which delivers 219 horsepower and excellent fuel economy in a practical, versatile package. Priced at $43,509 as tested, we compare it to hybrid competitors from Honda, Hyundai, and Ford while evaluating its balanced capabilities for both daily commuting and light off-road adventures.What's your take on these vastly different approaches to the SUV market?

Broadcasting from John Hovis's legendary Hemi Hideout in Brookshire, Texas, we invite listeners into a wonderland of automotive memorabilia, rare Mopar muscle, and glowing neon signs. This special venue has transformed dramatically since opening a decade ago, now serving as both museum and gathering place for car enthusiasts. Today's open house welcomes visitors with breakfast tacos, camaraderie, and the opportunity to support local charities through matched donations.Our automotive journey begins with a fascinating look at the 1971 Plymouth GTX – perhaps the most criminally overlooked muscle car of the Mopar golden era. This sleek fastback with coke-bottle curves arrived just as muscle car mania began cooling, resulting in just 2,900 sales despite its impressive 440 cubic inch V8 engine options. The rarest configuration – just 326 examples with the 440 Plus 6 and four-speed manual – now commands upwards of $166,000 at auction, demonstrating how collectors have finally recognized this hidden gem.We also dive deep into the completely redesigned 2025 Infiniti QX80 Autograph, a luxury behemoth assembled in America that competes directly with Escalade, Navigator, and Grand Wagoneer. Beyond its imposing presence and twin-turbo V6 producing 450 horsepower, this seven-passenger SUV pampers occupants with heated, ventilated, and massaging seats in both first and second rows. At $113,965 fully loaded (yes, including that much-discussed $355 umbrella holder), it represents Infiniti's flagship offering in the increasingly competitive premium SUV space.Whether you're fascinated by forgotten muscle cars, curious about modern luxury SUVs, or simply enjoy immersing yourself in automotive culture, join us for this unique broadcast from one of Texas's most extraordinary automotive destinations.

Just as 7-Eleven offers too much good stuff, that's what we have in this week's episode of America on the Road. We've been driving a lot of interesting vehicles lately, and so today we thought we'd bring you not two road tests but four — 2025 Toyota Tundra, 2025 Lincoln Nautilus, 2025 Mazda CX-50, 2025 Hyundai Elantra N Line. It's a fascinating quartet of vehicles each with something special to bring to the table. Our Toyota Tundra test vehicle was a 4x4 SRS CrewMax 5.5 that blends rugged capability with modern features, offering a spacious cabin for five and a 5.5-foot composite bed equipped with a power outlet, LED lighting, and an integrated deck rail system. Powered by a 389-horsepower 3.4-liter twin-turbo V6 paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission, it features part-time four-wheel drive and off-road-ready suspension. This model is equipped with the optional TRD Rally Package, adding 18-inch TRD alloy wheels, Bilstein shocks, skid plates, Crawl Control, Multi-Terrain Select, and unique TRD interior and exterior styling. Additional accessories like a TRD performance air filter, bed mat, and wheel locks further boost its practicality and rugged appeal. The big question is whether the turbo V6 matches the ability of a V8. And is the pricey TRD Rally Package worth the added price? And how does the new hybrid version of the Mazda CX-50 stack up? It pairs a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with three electric motors, an EV battery, and an electronically controlled CVT to deliver 219 horsepower and 163 lb-ft of torque, along with standard electric all-wheel drive. It features Mazda's Mi-Drive modes for power and trail driving, hill launch assist, and a 1,500-pound towing capacity. The exterior is sharp with LED headlights, a panoramic moonroof, roof rails, and a power rear liftgate. Inside, the CX-50 Hybrid seats five and offers leather-trimmed seats, heated front seats, a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, a power driver's seat with memory, and a wireless phone charger. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, rain-sensing wipers, a wiper de-icer, keyless entry, and an electric parking brake round out the vehicle's feature list. Host Jack Nerad took this one to the desert and back, and we'll have his full report. Meanwhile, co-host Chris Teague took the wheel of the 2025 Lincoln Nautilus and the 2025 Hyundai Elantra N Line. He found the Nautilus offers a refined interior with a standard 48-inch panoramic display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Lincoln's new Digital Scent system for a personalized cabin experience. Two powertrain choices are available: a 250-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder and a 310-horsepower hybrid, both paired with standard all-wheel drive. Additional features include available BlueCruise 1.2 hands-free driving technology, premium leather seating, and an optional Revel Ultima 3D audio system. The 2025 Elantra N Line features a sport-tuned chassis, a 201-horsepower turbocharged 1.6-liter engine, and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission for sharper performance than its siblings. It comes with 18-inch alloy wheels, unique N Line exterior styling, a black mesh grille, and a sports interior with leather-trimmed seats and alloy pedals. Technology highlights include a 10.25-inch touchscreen with navigation, wireless charging, and Hyundai's Bluelink+ connected services. So how does it match up with its most direct competitor, the Honda Civic Si? Chris and Jack will have the answers for you. In the news this week, we have a crisis on our hands, and it's not tariffs; it's uninsured motorists. They are costing each of us who has car insurance billions of dollars each year. We'll tell you what we learned about it a little later in the show. Of course, there is a lot of buzz right now about tariffs in the auto industry. We'll tell you what is real and what is hype and give you thoughts on how you should proceed if you're planning to buy a car this year.

Jon Summers is the Motoring Historian. He was a company car thrashing technology sales rep that turned into a fairly inept sports bike rider. On his show he gets together with various co-hosts to talk about new and old cars, driving, motorbikes, motor racing, motoring travel. In this episode, Jon reviews three vehicles, he discusses the Fiat 500e, highlighting its small size, aggressive regenerative braking, and plasticky interior, questioning its value considering depreciation. Next, he delves into the Dodge Durango Hellcat, lauding its 707 horsepower engine but critiquing its high price and overall build quality compared to competitors like Lexus and Genesis. Finally, he briefly evaluates the Acura ZDX, noting its competent performance but ultimately finding it unmemorable. Throughout, Jon shares anecdotes about technology glitches and driving experiences. ==================== Accept - Restless and Wild Fiat 500E - Perfectly adequate car. Luddite struggles getting it into gear. Nice evolution of the previous model. J would recommend one, but used. Let someone else suffer the depreciation hit of a new EV!!!!

10 Coches de Pruebas que me han asustado

En un video del área de miembros hice cuentas: En mi vida he probado más de 4.000 coches… No sé si me acuerdo de todos, pero desde luego de la mayoría sí… y sobre todo de algunos de ellos que, por diversos motivos, me han dado miedo, verdaderamente, me han asustado… de estos 10 os voy a hablar hoy. Son coches que me han dado miedo en unos casos a priori, incluso antes de conducirlos, y en otros casos es que directamente, me dieron un buen susto. En general la combinación de propulsión trasera, la absoluta falta de ayudas electrónica, muchos caballos y en ocasiones situaciones especiales, me colaborado a que estos coches me dieran miedo, me dieran algún susto… o ambas cosas a la vez. En este video, como os digo muy pero que muy personal, os diré el coche, alguna característica técnica que interesa conocer y luego irá la anécdota o la historia, como queráis llamarla… Maserati Biturbo (1981). En 1984 probé el Biturbo en versión de 2,5 litros y 200 CV, un motor V6 original de 3 válvulas por cilindro y dos turbos, con una respuesta típica de los turbos de la época, pese a que fuesen dos y no uno solo. El susto mayor con este coche me lo lleve como pasajero… Porsche 911 SC (1981). La segunda generación del 911 arranca en 1973 pero mi primer contacto con el 911, un coche al que admiraba profundamente, fue con un 911 SC aparecido en 1981 y que probé pocos años más tarde… y no nos entendimos. Con las referencias de hoy día, un coche con motor de 3 litros y 180 CV puede saber a poco… pero con ese chasis de suspensión con barras de torsión, escaso peso de apenas 1.200 kg, casi un 60 por ciento detrás y una batalla de apenas 2,2 metros, menor que la de mucho polivalentes… no era un coche fácil. Bentley Mulsanne Turbo (1982). Era todavía muy novato cuando me invitaron nada menos que a las 24 Horas de Le Mans y nada menos que a probar este modelo… un coche con motor V8 de casi 7 litros, con turbo, 350 CV con un par brutal y un peso de 2,3 toneladas… y de precio, ni hablamos. En euros de hoy, como si fuesen 300.000 €. Más que la potencia me asustaba el peso y más que el peso, el precio. BMW M5 (1984). Más o menos en 1985 llegó a la redacción el M5, con más o menos el mismo bastidor, pero con el motor del M1 de 3,5 litros y 286 CV para un peso 1.500 kg. Fuimos a hacer una sesión de fotos a una carretera con asfalto de mala calidad y muy arrugado y como sabéis, queríamos las fotos más espectaculares… no fue fácil… Cadillac Allanté (1987). Un coche que se comenzaba a fabricar en los USA y se terminaba de construir en Italia… con tracción delantera y un motor, en su versión tope, de 8 cilindros en V, 4,6 litros y casi 300 CV. Supuestamente era un coche muy progresivo, pero Cadillac no era un especialista en conches de tracción delantera y cuando “atacabas” sentías que el coche iba “de puntillas” … no inspiraba confianza… Opel Kadett GSi 16V (1987). Os hablo de la versión sin catalizar de 160 CV “de verdad” comprobados en banco, un peso de apenas 1000 kg y una suspensión rígida… sobre todo atrás. Lo probe a fondo por las carreteras viradas de la zona y comprobé como la parte trasera, en apoyos fuertes, tenía “vida propia”. Pero lo peor fue en la autopista de peaje, cuando quise comprobar la velocidad máxima, casi 220 km/h y pasé unas “juntas de dilatación”. Ford Escort RS Turbo (1989). Os extraigo un párrafo de una prueba de la época, que no escribí yo: “el Escort nunca ha sido un modelo unánimemente alabado por su comportamiento en la carretera y cuando se le quiere sacar todo su jugo las cosas cambian… a nuestro juicio, para llevar un RS medianamente rápido, es preciso tener cierta experiencia al volante”. Asia Rocsta (1990). No solo me he llevado sustos de coches potentes y deportivos. Si no me equivoco esta mala copia del Jeep llegó a España en 1993 y a un precio muy competitivo. Probé la versión Diesel de 2.2 litros, realmente económica, que supuestamente daba 61 CV para un peso de más de 1.300 kg, un cambio lento, lentísimo, y una aerodinámica “dudosa”. Pero el coche, además de no correr, contaba con una dirección lenta y dura y unas suspensiones no muy bien resueltas… Alpine A610 V6 Turbo (1991). Hablamos de un modelo que había reforzado su bastidor, con motor trasero V6 turbo, bastante turbo, de 3 litros y 250 CV para un peso de menos de 1.500 kg. Pero de esos 1.500 kg el 57 por ciento iba detrás y solo el 43, es decir, menos de 650 kg, iban delante… Dodge Viper (1991). Grande, pesado y muy potente, este no era un coche fácil… pero menos “traicionero” de lo que podías esperar. El motor V10 de 8 litros y 394 CV ayudaba, porque era muy potente, con mucho par en baja, pero muy progresivo. Lo peor era su tamaño, su visibilidad, su reducido espacio en el habitáculo y su peso, alrededor de 1,7 toneladas, que hoy día no espanta a nadie, pero que en esos años era mucho.

The 6-speed swapped Mercedes-Benz CLK63 AMG Black Series is finally here, and Jason drove it! Derek's – or rather OTS's – OEM-grade 6-speed manual CLK63 Black Series by Kwiek Classics is done, and Jason and Derek get behind the wheel to review the car that AMG should've built all along.  Enthusiasts around the world have never had a chance to interact directly with AMG's only clean-sheet engine, the M156 – a monster 6.2L, 32-valve, DOHC, cross-plane V8 making 500 horsepower for the CLK63 Black Series. But now, thanks to Matt Kwiek at Kwiek Classics, we finally can! And it's why Derek and his business partners at OTS bought one for Matt to manual swap using OEM Mercedes-Benz parts. The swap is done, and the car is here in the Bay Area where the Carmudgeons got to row the gears in AMG's widebody beast of the noughties. By junking the recalcitrant automatic transmission, the car is transformed into the athlete its flared fenders promise it to be. Combine the manual trans with the factory triple-adjustable dampers (which feel like they're full of sand in its current track configuration, though according to Jason are magical with the settings Mercedes used at the launch event) and the CLK63 Black Series becomes a car that even the most curmudgeonly enthusiast will struggle to come up with an excuse not to buy. As familiar and confidence-inspiring as the best M cars like E36 and E46 M3, and with an engine more engaging and experiential than the likes of the E39 M5. Even better to drive than a V8 Vantage and a Lexus LFA. Unlike typical 3-pedal swaps that lend themselves to terrible throttle mapping (see: Pagani Zonda), this one is a 9 out of 10, and an easy “marry” over a plethora of Ferraris: Testarossa, 355, 550 – even a Porsche 997 GT3. After the AMG, we dive into Jason's recent dyno day at Chuckles Garage in NorCal, where Jason managed to take 3 spots on the dyno's leaderboard for least horsepower (not including Jason, who can put down 500 watts). Jason got power numbers on his E31 BMW 850CSi, the Rover SD1 3500 V8, and the Honda Beat. Plus a friend brings along a Euro-spec 850CSi for comparison. Using some Turner Motorsport chips for the dual-ECU S70 850CSi motor, in conjunction with some Ferrari 599 mufflers, Jason's CSi managed to beat the Euro car at 304 rear wheel horsepower. But even with Ferrari exhaust, the 850 still needs help in the sound department. Luckily, @czechmate_e30 is working with a fabricator to make a set of stepped headers for BMW V12s! Then, with fresh dyno numbers in hand, Jason combines the data with the power figures from the rest of his fleet, and indexes them by percentage of peak power versus percentage of peak RPM. The resulting graph provides an excellent visualization as to where and how each of his car's engines makes their power. Science! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Cizeta-Moroder V16T was the world's first sixteen-cylinder supercar, beating Bugatti by more than a decade. From its Gandini-designed Lamborghini origins, to disco-backed financing via Giorgio Moroder, a star-studded launch party with MC Jay Leno, and a cavalcade of lawsuits that continued up until the death of company founder and creator Claudio Zampolli in 2021. Brian Wiklem's "16" book is available here: https://www.cizeta-v16t.com/ This is the true story of the Cizeta-Moroder V16T.  The Cizeta's mysterious engine has left many guessing when it comes to its origins. Turns out, it has 2 cross-plane crankshafts from a Lamborghini Urraco P300 V8, a block design taken right from Ferrari's 308 V8, and heads dissimilar to each — looking more like Cosworth's contemporary DOHC designs. We even learn – thanks to Iain Tyrrell's Classic Workshop – that there appears to have been a flat-plane crank version in the works too!  Lots of nerdy engineering talk in this one: the torsional forces acting on crankshafts that make V16s (and straight-8s) not work so well, and how Claudio solved for them with a central power takeoff unit in his transverse V16 with a longitudinal transaxle – as opposed to the McLaren F1 (which debuted not long after) which did the inverse with a longitudinal engine (albeit with 4 fewer cylinders) and transverse transaxle. There were only a handful of V16 engines in the early 1900s, early examples fitted to Cadillacs and Marmons, with the Cizeta and other esoteric oddballs filling the gaps until present day, but now we're getting a new one in the form of the Bugatti Tourbillon – whose predecessors used a much shorter “W” layout for their 16-cylinder powerplants. In any case, the cross-plane crank in the V16T elicits a raucous, lopey idle, and a Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R Chewbacca-grade WOT bellow accompanied by a cacophony of gear and induction noises. Build quality is exceptional throughout, and puts the Bugatti EB110 and Countach to shame.  Claudio would find himself in very public spats with Jay Leno, the author of the V16T book itself, Brian Wiklem, and countless others at car shows, on Ferrari forums, on Facebook – just about everywhere. He may have been paranoid and a little delusional, but he was an incredible engineer and mechanic, and we're grateful to have been able to experience the Cizeta-Moroder V16T! Huge shout-outs to owner Brendan Gallaher, Jay Leno, and Brian Wiklem. At the start of this episode, we'll also talk Golfs! Specifically MK7s, and the one Jason just bought for his niece. Believe it or not, despite decades of VW-dom, Jason has never owned a real GTI until this car. Now he's turning the youth into car people one relative at a time, starting with the purchase of a 2006 Infiniti G35 Coupe 6-speed for his nephew a few years ago, and then sending him to driving school with it. His niece got to attend the same driving school in Jason's E30, Beatrice. And, if Jason leaves the surprise 034Motorsport tune on this new GTI, his niece will inherit a car much quicker than her older brother's (and Derek may have to buy one too).

John's currently penning something which will change global culture. But what if we lift the bonnet of his genius? That is what we find out on today's show.For in that bonce is a V8 plucking words from the ether with such vim and vigour, and combining those words to make phrases, clauses and sentences. Word constructs which then combine to make reflections and musings that will make people go “huh, that's profound” like nothing before.The ease with which John hammers out words at such a pace would make Jilly Cooper, professional blush causer, blush. Pages churned out with an efficiency that if this were Bob Cratchit doing office based tasks then Scrooge would offer him a raise.Elsewhere, there is combat over the combativeness of features and where the blame for that lies, whilst once again Elis is unreasonably put under time pressure to think of things. Plus, have you ever just snogged someone constantly for an hour?If you'd like to pen your own novellas (emails / texts) then get in touch through elisandjohn@bbc.co.uk or 07974 293 022 on WhatsApp.
