Strongly agree. We should have "made the work worth doing" before, but it's even more imperative with LLMs on the scene. However, when will they be able to do work that is worth doing? GPT4? GPT5? There will be a point where

1. This design would have to be 3D printed because there is not a good way to manufacture it using traditional methods, so it would probably be paired with a 3D printed heat exchanger. 3D printed heat exchangers do not typically have tubes.

FYI, this is not something that people are looking to use outside of aerospace. The heat exchangers in homes, factories, power plants, etc. are designed to be energy efficient and cheap. This is designed to be extremely light weight and 3D

by elil17 4y ago
This is for aerospace heat exchangers, where weight is the primary concern. This would not be used along-side tube-base heat exchangers, but rather with 3D printed heat exchangers.

Did you publicly publish your work? E.g. blog post, youtube video, etc. Could be as simple as a single photo or a brief written description of the design. If so, you're good to continue your work. You could even try to help the patent

by elil17 4y ago
The header is not actually meant for cooling, just to distribute the fluid evenly across the heat exchanger. 3D printed heat exchangers use shapes like gyroids.

I disagree with this. Every "app idea" I've heard could be built, so going to a software developer and asking them whether it's possible is the wrong question. Someone with an app idea needs to be asking whether there is

I don't use ZipChord for writing code specifically - I have found existing code specific completion tools to be better suited for most of what I code. I do use it for writing code comments. Here's a pastebin of my dictionary: htt

It's an anecdote which is meant to illustrate a widely observed behavior among many humans: we're better at accounting for frequent errors than we are at accounting for rare ones. This is well established in the field of human rel

I would say GPS is in the zone of having such a low error rate that people can't process it right. If, as an example, GitHub Copilot added a security vulnerability in one in ten thousand lines of code, that would be a disaster because

Until you realize they’re dumb. I don’t think people are so naive that they’ll ignore clearly dumb robots that they work with every day. I do think people will make those mistakes with robots they’re not that familiar with.

If they just wanted to avoid taxes, they could have done it in the same way every other rich person seems to manage to do it (some combination of offshoring corporate earnings, borrowing against assets, and a variety of loopholes). Instead

I use GitHub Copilot at work. At first, I found myself blindly accepting its suggestions. They seemed so plausible! After I got bit in the behind by enough weird, AI generated bugs, I learned the right level of trust. I now know how to read

Is it true to say that geometry isn’t computable? You can symbolically compute geometry. You wouldn’t be able to compute the decimal circumference of a circle, for example, but you can represent it as 2 pi r in a symbolic system. You can th

I’ve found that ZipChord offers the best trade of between convenience (does not require N-key rollover, can continue to type normally on a QWERTY keyboard for most words) and speed. It lets you type a chord of several characters at once to

Yes, this case: https://fkks.com/news/can-borrowing-ten-words-be-copyright-i... However, this definitely pushed the boundaries of copyright law. Audi never appealed the $1m verdict, so it's hardly settled case law

These look like they would have the same risks as electric scooters, all while remaining invisible to everyone around you. Hope to be proved wrong but these look like a lawsuit waiting to happen.
