What a fascinating and well-made system. Really inspiring!

That, amusingly, would probably not be allowed on the App Store.

The Mathematics Stack Exchange has consistently surprised me (in a good way) in their helpfulness and rigor.

The article mentions one example that needs to use ASCII "rendering" because Bevy lacks 2D/3D rendering support. I'd imagine that not many projects have been built on top of Bevy yet, due to the WIP nature of the renderi

Machine learning models are used for a large portion of the terrain. Trees, generic buildings, and other models are placed in the AI's "best guess" for what the fully reconstructed scene would look like.

The article is a good read from a design perspective (how typefaces look and behave), from a history perspective (where do these conventions come from) and from an engineering perspective (how does this affect our users?)

Trackpads are no longer a Windows vs Mac thing. On the Windows side, if the manufacturer implements Windows Precision Touchpad, the scrolling, gestures, and multitouch experience is (for the vast majority of users and manufacturers) excelle

Your point about the software ecosystem is very good. I think the advantage you're talking about stems mostly from how Hololens is a first-class Windows 10/10X platform now, serving as one of their flagship new platforms for their

Given the popularity of single-board computers among hobbyist folk, I'm going to bet there will be more "repurposed industrial waste" SBC fiascos in the future.

I think the author's point of "made of dependencies, not files" is that they are not human files. They are autogenerated webs of dependent repositories, not to be touched by the user, unless something has gone seriously wrong

Is that not just a thin VM on $anyCloudProvider? You can attach however much storage to it, and just ssh to it. It's essentially just a headless storage machine living somewhere off in Califonia.

There's a pretty significant movement among the current tech giants for allowing users to monitor their usage of technology and their various devices. iOS and Android both now support their own versions of a "screen time" mon

Yeah, something looks and feels very weird about these pages. The antialiasing behavior on some of the shapes+text is very strange looking, as well as some weird scrolling behavior. Seems very... uncanny, as you say.

So many things about this comment raise so many questions. 1. "winter (low power) necessity" Do you live in some remote cabin where you exist solely off of solar power or something? Sounds fascinating. 2. "I don't have a

Yeah, the model isn't "hiding data from its overlords", it's just a classic overfit.

This truly is an incredible bit of literary imagery. I've never heard it before yet it is so very accurate.

If they can see the polarization of light, perhaps rolling their eyes can change the filtering of the polarization?

Couldn't the indelible blockchain-embedded data be pointers to data hosted elsewhere? If the externally hosted data is "forgotten", the blockchain-verified pointers would be useless.

I'd like to repeat this point from the last time this was discussed: these no-battery devices do NOT "connect" to the WiFi protocol in any way. They simply modify the electromagnetic characteristics of existing packets/s

For average use, coming from the perspective of a traditional combustion engine user, that falls squarely in my "hey, not bad!" area of judgement. That's about 100 miles less than a full tank on my Subaru, and I don't th

It looks like it's still incomplete, the sections on textures/3d graphics aren't complete yet. Looking forward to reading up on these topics.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Wow, a neural network discards information at each layer by reducing the number of cells in each matrix? Water is wet. How else would a network make a final decision? If it never discarded any inform

Wait, what? Am I understanding you correctly, that you mean the adapter will use more battery? USB-C allows for analog audio passthrough, unlike Lightning.

I really agree with the "uncanny valley" judgement. I would absolutely love to ditch my Windows 10 laptop for a smooth, efficient, and secure ChromeOS device. However, it simply doesn't have the software support, unfortunatel
