Not American, but Texas seems to be USA Hungary, i.e. continually advances laws that are fascist that encroach on the constitution with the hopes of one day overthrowing it entirely.

One of the more bizarre parts of the Musk-Twitter saga has been Musk's unyielding support for censorship of tweets critical of Modi. [1] I don't really understand why someone who claims to be dedicated to free speech would ever ta

Isn't it this way in almost every major urban US area? I was in St. Louis for a conference and got robbed, after I reported it to police and told them I had the current location of the suspects because they stole my phone and location

Thank you. There are so many sketchy things going on with Square/Block that some bad actors might be involved was never surprising to me.

As soon as I saw the reported murder I figured it was a business partner who felt scorned, but then HN narrative continued for a full week about the lack of safety in SF. While things might be bad, random murders by strangers are still a ra

I know it is hard being a forum BDFL and it's expected that we will not always agree. Seeing a lot of unsubstantiated medical advice during the pandemic was just very hard for me, especially when hearing it from a "smart" pla

No one wants to go to jail for Elon, who has been flagrantly violating FTC orders.[1] There's a good chance the commit history and authors may attest to that. https://thehill.com/policy/technology/3928219-musk

It's a proprietary versus open source argument. You can build a mk4 clone for much less than the price of a Prusa-branded one, as everything is open source. The higher price tag is like a donation to open source. Prusa also makes the o

You are humanizing token prediction. The multimodal models for text-vision were all established using a scaffold of architectures that unified text-token and vision-token similarity e.g. BLIP2. [1] It's possible that a model using unif

Yes, I phrased this badly. I meant that instead of using the phone's NFC for verification, we can use a small NFC device that we tap to the phone and which the phone reads via NFC to verify our identities. Just like we tap our cards to

Yes, a government or corporate issued device like a Yubikey with NFC is my ideal. Just tap to the phone to verify. Payment cards got it right, everyone else is just catching up.
