That's ... Really sad to hear. Decades ago I was obsessed with Blender and spent a decent amount of time on there. Knowledge is vanishing before our eyes, escaping to the shadows, where is whispered between those who hold it in their m

Not disputing the feasibility of light field imaging. That approach really doesn't do anything for the use case the camera Nikon/Mitsubishi are showcasing. Light field cameras have low resolution for their sensor sizes, lower opti

This sounds pretty elegant but I don't think it's correct. I don't have a good sense for what the R&D required to spin up a new bespoke sensor is, but I think it's sort of high - I assume there's a reason Nikon

not sure how you took the idea "we want wide and narrow views of the same perspective" and thought building a light field camera might be a practical approach

That's slick! I wonder what sorts of jobs end up being cost effective on it. Like, how much does the media used to print the example job in the video cost? There's no clue on the website as to the cost of the media, so I'm gu

Needlessly complex, and machine vision camera users don't like the ambiguity that comes with ML processing on the frontend of their own stuff.

From my time with optics this seems the most likely setup. Getting good optical efficiency out of the setup might take some cleverness though - ideally you're not dumping loads of light that are "out of frame" for one sensor.

If properly cared for, and under common urban all-weather cycling conditions, yeah your chain is going to last for more than a few weeks. 1500 miles is what I get on my 12sp MTB chains, which get exposed to more severe service than urban bi

People have ridden fixed in SF for decades. I have as well. You learn to prefer certain routes, and when the hill is steep, you just deal with the low cadence.

Top of mind, I recall that the US sent Israel 14,000 of the Mk84 2000lb bomb alone since Oct7. The lethal fragmentation radius of the Mk84 is 400 feet. The Strip is about 140 mi^2, so you're talking about 100 Mk84's per square mil

Let's put aside the war crimes stuff for a second and think about this as Hackers. Israel's military actions are so awful that they obfuscate the instruments of surveillance and warfare Israel's tech and defense industries ha

Far from being an original line of inquiry, this is covered by the legal concept of Duty to Rescue. Short story is it differs by country, but generally you're not required to save someone's life. In some places you are required to

For those without a free hour to watch, here's the slide deck? I am not a cryptography or digital radio expert, so grain of salt and all that. Slide 14 shows real world feasibility, I think it's safe to say that while theoreticall

I visited a friend who, along with a dozen of their friends, bought a series of new build townhomes in a suburb of a major city. It was very, very cool.

It sounds like Apple Photos "phones home" by fetching some indices? It doesn't sound like photo data leave the device, but I think Apple's issue is they should have been more clear about how this feature worked and what

If you live somewhere that's reasonably dense, this is possible. I live in a very walkable city that is also socially quite dense. Most of my social links are people who live a walk or a short bike ride away. During the warm months,

I think it may be that it's a fairly uniform thickness across manufacturers, whereas if you are getting cardstock from different places you would need to pay attention to paper weights (gsm).

Someone made a comment here regarding magic recently that this reminded me of. Sometimes you can make something appear magical by spending far more time on the effect than anyone would ever think to do. Stunning work. I admire and envy the

The novel versions of the Expanse do touch on human excreta at points. There's a mention of a urine collection device in a space suit at some point.

I watch surgery videos sometimes, out of fascination. It's not gore to me - sure it's flesh and blood but there is a person whose life is going to be probably significantly better afterwards. They are also not in pain. I exposed m

I mean I live in a city now (denser than any city in the Bay) and I left my truck unlocked for 3 months before I sold it. Btw, in case this is relevant: if you have a 1st gen Tacoma, never sell that thing. Still miss that truck.

When I lived in California I wrapped a bunch of chain around the cat on my truck. Wasn't actually that secure but thieves see a ton of chain and padlocks and go "ehhhh keep moving."

I think you could classify the shortage of doctors as being due to "poor regulation." Some brief reading suggests that the supply of physicians is constrained by a cap on public funding residency slots lobbied for by the AMA.
