I'm confused - is this essentially saying we haven't ruled out fluctuations but we are putting a tighter bound on the variance? But not that we actually detected variation right? My curiosity led me down the rabbit hole of all the

It was heavily overloaded, for the record. But huge machine nonetheless.

Excuse me, to a very high degree? Can you elaborate?

I'll grant that my example is a slight stretch, but only because I don't know definitively for what reasons all the delays took place. Somewhere in the calculus UA lives and hundreds of billions in infrastructure were deemed expen

This seems like a good time for people to learn about what modern Luddism is. No, it is not simply a group of people destroying the machines that replace them. It is about people as a whole refusing to be swept up in the sole narrative by t

Well... I would agree with your final sentence were it not for the fact that we strongly adhered to Russia's numerous red lines as far as weapon systems delivery to Ukraine.

Right, that's part of the problem. During the work hours the temporary population of Manhattan grows about threefold. They contribute to immense gridlock and then disappear to their suburbs in another state. Why must the residents bear

Fascinating article. But early on I had one question - why is a blue that is made by sunlight hitting hair nanostructures considered a "simulation" thereby differentiating it from color made through sunlight interaction with bioch

Yeah, good eye. It reads like a general description of the product type and not of this particular implementation. Your link has an actual exploration of the tech.

Interesting concept, but this just seems like a product page? Care to share more or expand?

Its probably somewhere in the middle - a feedback loop.

I'm curious about the specs of the FPGA used - I imagine fairly high-end?

I have slid sideways my whole career, ever farther from the full-stack origins careening through and past DDIMM controller firmware and hardware procedures (one of my first true loves), through functional testing (Python) and structural tes

Not relying on licenced IP? 96% in-house? That's my guess but I'm just a dude on HN. Also, this is kinda like SpaceX getting a Falcon 9 to orbit the first time but in fusion land.

Sometimes the alternative to unemployment is far less attractive (exuberant burnout or total time sink preventing a meaningful job search).

In what context? Code generation? Art exploration?

Well, according to Occam's Razor...

Mind Illuminated is what finally got me into (a more stable) meditation practice.

TL;DR: "While the glow is invisible to the naked eye, it can be detected by instruments aboard satellites such as NASA’s Orbiting Carbon Obsevatory-2 (OCO-2). Launched in 2014, OCO-2 has observed the U.S. Midwest aglow during the growi

Recalibrate your weights toward more recent developments (post '21) and you will see a clearer picture, I think. M7 is quite popular now for TinyML applications (600MHz for an MCU!!). It's somewhere between RPi 2 and 3 based on Co

In the scenario that China and India barrel into atmospheric experiments, they may be able to secure group funding from the larger island nations with high levels of buildup near the coast. I think you make a good point that we are centuri

To geoengineer or not to geoengineer, that is the question. Can we build models that six nines assure us of a small stable improvement that stays near linear behavior, or asymptotic better yet?

I wonder if the 20th century NYC dialect had "yous" from the wave of irish immigrants. As in "Yous guys ova hee". (Speaking as a native new yorker who doesn't hear this dialect much anymore except for maybe at a mec

Speaking of relative maturity, I just had a heap corruption debug for a few days. Imagine my surprise when fixing the issue involved switching from the default ESP32 BLE library to the NimBLE library...

Well, temperature-wise mid-April SF struck me as almost exactly like CDMX in early December.

I think modern hardware would be more like 200k, no? I believe 300k is robust/archaic Homo sapiens.

I agree that it is quite difficult to bootstrap a hobby practice, or repeatedly involve oneself socially when depressed. Speaking from personal experience in the deep dark pits, what I mean is that we should look at the problem through the
