This is great! I really like the retro look on the example models and the video. I've never edited voxel models with the spritestacking 2D technique, I'll give it a try. Is it more efficient than placing voxels in a 3D viewport? O

This is great news! I'll definitely be in line to get it whenever my turn comes. A thing that keeps worrying me is the amount of people I've seen/chatted with (empirical evidence) that don't trust these vaccines. The mos

I got excited when I saw the title, then checked the URL and it is a software simulation / game of building a computer. I'm not denying this can be interesting, but I've been thinking for a while to get my hands dirty with ha

This is a great book! I recommend it to everyone that's interested in computer graphics. I used this first book as a project to learn Clojure https://github.com/ElHacker/rt-in-weekend-clojure I'm slowly going

This is amazing! Can't believe Sega had a VR Headset in 1993 and for only $200, it's a bit sad they couldn't get it out there. I believe VR is coming very close to going main stream, probably in less than 5 years from now. Oc

My favorite code editor by far is Vim. But I've tried newer ones over the years: Sublime, Atom, VSCode, etc. None of them seem to stick with me and I always go back to Vim. I think I've developed some sort of dependency to Vim sho

I've recently started using VS Code and my favorite feature by far is Zen Mode. It allows me to focus a lot more, takes away a lot of the distractions I get from my million open browser tabs and other apps trying to get my attention.

I'm currently going through with my first startup, I'm a technical founder and this post definitely helps me to try to invest more of my time learning how to do sales. Thanks for sharing.

Wrote this simple plugin that just shows the new and modified files in vim's quickfix window, powered by git status. I find it very useful to easily navigate to the files I'm working with in the current commit. Hope you find it us

I would love to see a version of this applied to both VR and AR but it seems that the current implementation is still slow for the performance that VR requires. From the site: "During inference, our system operates at 25fps on 320x240

This is a cool project. I did something similar with LSTM in Tensorflow to generate Reddit comments. The biggest problem I found in my experiment is that the comments generated had not real meaning, nor even tried to deliver a message. Real

That's not what I meant. I'm pro-informed voters. Restricting the vote to only the ones that pass a quiz does lead to aristocracy.

You're proposing aristocracy, that would be a big step backwards. I think there are far better ways to inform people about their choices and give them the power to decide who they want to be represented by. In any case, we should make

I really like that they used TensorFlow and published their code in GitHub. It will help a lot of people like me, that are new in the field and want to learn more about generative models. Amazing work by the OpenAI team!

Thanks for the suggestion. Will definitely see it.

Hello Sam. I'm a Software Engineer at a Big Tech Co. I've been ambivalent about going back to school to do a part-time master's degree in AI, or just do self-studying. Creating a startup in the US is not an option for me yet

Having the habit of writing down your ideas everyday sounds like a good exercise to improve your redaction skills. I don't see much more value other than that. Yes, ideas are cheap, getting them to actually produce value is not. On the

Sure, believing in your startup as a founder goes a long way. Keeps you motivated in coming back to work at it and walk the extra mile. But is not the founder's most important task to convince the press, investors, partners or even a t

It all comes down to the scale factor. The monolithic approach makes more sense for big companies that have a large portfolio of projects, an army of software engineers and the resources to develop their own tools around a SCM. This solves

Interesting project. It would be cool to see the heartbeat contextualized with what you were doing at the moment.
