Most drones are controlled by humans, so they don't need neural networks. Larger drones still don't use anything too advanced, as specialized neural networks actually don't need beefy hardware. Maybe this will change in futur

> Problem isn’t with “tastes better and at half the calories”, no, it is actually for providing filler when the initial sell was using genuine simple ingredients. So "ice cream desserts" use fake gelatin?

This kind of recipe is wildly irresponsible to actually sell. Raw unpasteurized milk _will_ cause health issues when used in large quantities. Ditto for raw egg yolks. I lived on a farm during summers as a child, but I will not touch raw mi

Most drones don't use anything cutting-edge. Even 15-year-old chips are more than enough.

The US can produce these chips. South Korea can also do that.

Which supplies? Batteries are produced everywhere. Power electronics are dime-a-dozen. IMUs, GPS chips, and CPUs are produced in Taiwan anyway.

There are no truly irreplaceable components there. It's going to only be a problem if China stops _all_ the exports. Even then, a custom supply chain can be set up domestically. You'll probably have to limit the number of variatio

We are making a niche model that we're now expanding. You'd be surprised how the general models suck for anything vision-related. And even if you use all the tricks in the book to make them work for you, the cost can easily be 100

One thing missing is that the population growth in the US is mostly reliant on immigration ( https://www.census.gov/data/tables/2023/demo/popproj/2023-su... ). And our most favoritest political party

It actually is, just not water steam. There's a hot springs resort in Alaska that uses pentane (boiling point 38C) to generate energy. The efficiency is terrible, of course.

You can put Noctua fans in server rack computers. I even modified my NAS to use them: https://pics.ealex.net/s/noctua-fans-ftw

That really works well while you have a rack or so. Afterwards, you really need people who know all the details of networking and storage. Especially if you're designing something without a SPOF. What's changing is the scope of th

I'm too lazy to look up all the potentials, but in general, having an exothermic process in the loop means that your efficiency is going to suck. If you want a compact efficient store of energy, then power-to-methane exists. Ammonia is

Azure is laughably bad. I'm genuinely at a loss to name a good recent Microsoft product.

It's too expensive for agriculture.

Suppose that you are a midsize company or a b2b service, so you want to make sure that your service has minimum downtime. This means that you need sysadmins in close proximity to your hardware to do hardware swapping/troubleshooting. O

Sure, and perhaps it should be prohibited. But it's also a matter of impact. But it's just hard to care too much about a commoditized product and an app with tons of competition. And McDonald's is not keeping any competitors

If you're not space-constrained, why go with a Framework Desktop? Just get a normal tower or a server rack computer.

Switching into another language also helps if you are stuck in an environment where you do not want to pay attention (e.g. on a bus with blaring ads that you can't mute or with a rude neighbor yapping on their phone).

It would make it impossible for makers of 3rd-party harnesses to compete with Claude Code. This principle is not just limited to LLMs. > You're just upset that you don't get to use their VC money the way you want to use it lol.

This method of bundling should be illegal in general, as it stiffles competition.

Not really. AAC was used to build floors without enough of additional reinforcement, and this is a bad idea. Just like regular concrete, it's weak in tension and is even more brittle. If you use it to build walls and then use regular c

To expand this a bit, most sequencing methods are exact, and have a low error rate (except nanopores). But they produce short reads, and because DNA is full of repetitive fragments, it's not always clear where the read came from. We al

Since we're on a wild tangent here, the US house construction is also held back by the sheer momentum of wood-framed buildings. For example, aerated autoclaved concrete has better structural strength, doesn't need additional insul

Well, Gogol's "Dead Souls" is the first example of a lifehack.

Oh, absolutely. Especially for the top universities. That made olympiads even more important because they allowed students to bypass the exams. And in the USSR, if you failed to get into the university, you were drafted into the army for 2
