You beat me to it. It is indeed a fantastic Veritasium video. One of his best, in my opinion.

A YouTuber (the same who drew my attention to polycam) recently made a proof of concept for something like that : he fed the 3D gaussian splatting algorithm with a bunch of renders of a 3D scene. The concept seems to make sense, though mod

Basically, but the general concept is "content-addressable file service". It's not specific to IPFS. Arguably, it's also what bittorrent does.

Isn't the problem of censorship much more than technical? I mean, censorship doesn't seem like something everybody agrees is bad. Free speech is not absolute at all : there is a demand to regulate, prohibit and prosecute for inst

I don't think the rubber is the limiting factor. You can always use more rubber. I think the main stopper for higher speeds would be materials strength, especially with that design relying on a cable, but even so I doubt the limits ar

He calls it a trebuchet but I'd call it a slingshot. In any case, a very cool project IMHO. I've long wondered how fast modern technology could throw a projectile without resorting to explosives. I now know it can at least be su

The inverse of a 2x2 matrix (a b;c d) has a fairly simple explicit solution (d -b;-c a)/(ab-bc). I was wondering if it's possible to have a similar formula for a matrix of dimension 2^n decomposed into a 2x2 block-wise matrix of f

"Prime time for an impact" is kind of an ironic title IMHO. People already live quite long, so it takes a long time for longevity to take any significant effect. If a 20yo man became immortal today, he will be 100 in 2099. Who kn
