The difference is that Australia is on earth... where we all live. In fact, Australia already had people living on it.

are you equally upset that Harry Potter isn’t real? I don’t mean to come across as rude, I just can’t really understand what you mean unless you’re saying that you’re sad magic isn’t real

Yes, only anti-truckers can haul anti-matter since normal CDLs only let you transport ordinary matter. You have to be very careful not to let the anti-trucker go to a ordinary truck stop because things really go down if they run into a ordi

Why wouldn't it be trained to do that? You can easily include that in the training data. It's not like the people building Waymo have never heard of flashing your brights before.

I do see your point regarding timing, but I don't see why daily isn't enough liquidity when, for decades, funds from trades have taken multiple days to clear. The very existence of holiday weekends shows that it's actually to

Even if it didn't make sense to build new nuclear, that doesn't mean it makes sense to shut of existing nuclear.

Right? Why do we even need all-day trading? I have seen a once-daily auction proposed, which seems like a sensible approach to me.

Federally. Every child deserves the same educational opportunity.

I'm glad that's how it works where you live. In Illinois, most school funding comes directly from property taxes, meaning rich areas get more. For state funding, they use a system called EBF which is better than straightforwardly

Is it even wasted if a child gets an education?
134.
by elil17 7mo ago
The correct way to address this is to not have school funding be based on how expensive the nearby houses are.

by elil17 7mo ago
So in theory 3D-Knitting can produce a made-to-measure garment on demand, and has been able to for years. And yet, no one actually offers to sell you a made-to-measure knitted garment. Why? A few theories: - Knits are stretchy so there&#x27

I don't think this is the correct interpretation. I think they mean that if you make something without AI and then modify that with AI, that's covered. Likewise, if you start from an AI output and modify it, that's covered. B

If someone is being forced by an AI to be polite to you, is it really still basic human politeness? Or is it some weird, different, corporate-hellscape-mediated thing

Wow that's wild. I usually consider Rtings pretty reliable so that's a big surprise to me.

Well there are multiple types of molded paper inserts. Egg carton-type material on the cheap end, and that super smooth stuff that Apple uses on the other (these generally have additives in them - they aren't just paper). In terms of &

I don't think this is better for the environment than cardboard (if anything it is probably worse as a direct replacement for cardboard because cardboard already has a robust recycling supplychain). Rather, it is a replacement for plas

I believe the mushroom packaging is more like a foam, so it may be able to better protect products. Additionally, it may have a more "premium" feeling/appearance vs. pulp packaging.

The point is that a robot with higher load capacity is necessarily less agile. BD's target market is industrial so their robots are necessarily larger and less agile. The fact that Unitree's robots appear so acrobatic reflects tha

I wasn't trying to say that Unitree is somehow deficient. I'm sure they could build Atlas if they wanted. My point was that BD could probably build a robot with the shown acrobatic capabilities, but they choose not to because thei

You are assuming that listed raw measurements online are accurate (they rarely are).

by elil17 8mo ago
To be fair to BD, Atlas can lift 50 kg and a Unitree G1 can lift about 2 kg. An Atlas could literally pick up and throw a G1. They are very different robots with very different goals, so it should be no surprise that the G1 appears much mor

Well I don't think there's anything dangerous about artificial or natural dyes. I certainly don't think you should have to put a warning label saying "dyes extracted with gasoline" on products using natural dyes. At
