Author here, obviously not. The goal of the project isn't to try to solve a problem that can't be solved, it's to reduce the effort needed to set up a WebRTC signaling server. The "P2P" here is referring to the peer

Webspaces[1] is my answer to this call for the 3D web emergent metaverse. It's just HTML that you can host anywhere that is rendered as a 3D multiplayer world via p2p webrtc. [1] https://webspaces.space

That’s possible but far less likely than the alternative explanation that either this is bunk too or LK-99 contained signal that people dismissed due to a hole in our methodology.

You know you can block and mute people on Twitter, right? The actual true grifters of the kind you are talking about are pretty rare in terms of a per user basis (though get get lots of distribution), and most of them are very bad at concea

You can use my project p2pcf [1] to do WebRTC signalling and then sync the cursors by just blasting datachannel messages to all your connected peers. For a project I made that uses this to do far more than cursor syncing, but syncs an entir

I helped work on Hubs and you might like Webspaces - it’s a way to just add a script tag to a HTML page to make it a 3D world, live multiplayer etc. https://webspaces.space

Consumers don't care, but observers who are trying to understand the nature of what's being developed do. Tesla's approach is not strictly about cars, just like their entire company isn't strictly about cars. They'r

That's fair. I don't 'love' FSD, I just think ultimately what is going on here is Tesla has chosen a very different, more challenging path. They are more likely to fail than their competitors at this for this reason, but

No, by your definition any software released with bugs in a beta program users can pay to be a part of, while it's being developed, is vaporware. Under that definition you'd need to invent another word for what currently constitut

by gfodor 3y ago
Do you think Tesla's approach to FSD is similarly difficult as their peers' approach, and they are just lazy and incompetent, or do you think their approach is fundamentally easier or harder? Have you thought about it at all?
134.
by gfodor 3y ago
That's true, it's still unclear if the method Tesla is taking will eventually work. That's not the definition of snake oil. They're approaching the problem differently, because they think if they solve it this way it wil

No, there are only two valid values for {name} where this kind of dynamic is both real and useful to observe, the rest I would agree with you.

by gfodor 3y ago
I see, so you'd classify Tesla's FSD as software that has been advertised but is not yet available to buy, because it is only a concept or is still being written or designed. Got it.

You should try thinking about why the term vaporware has the word “vapor” in it, and what it’s intended to describe.

by gfodor 3y ago
It’s funny that you’ve got several teams of thousands of engineers working on this and you label the one as “snake-oil” that has deployed their beta to hundreds of thousands of cars. Musk Derangement Syndrome is real.

Sounds like you might have the problem here if you think you can determine someone is acting schizophrenic via internet comments. The person I am replying to is suffering from confirmation bias about their belief in confirmation bias.

All you’re saying here is that it’s never possible to characterize a board ousting a ceo as a coup. People do, because it’s a useful way to characterize when this happens in the way it did here vs many other ways that involve far less decep

If SETI wants to make an impact, they should first do more work to disprove the hypothesis that there are small voids within the Earth's crust housing small grey hominids in a breakaway civilization who primarily live in simulated envi
