Yes, I remember that! My childhood football club had their pitch in Kieselrot. And now that I read the article it is coming back. The pitch was closed for several months, but we weren't told why.... Oh, thanks so much! Have a great day

@EricD: I took historic sales increase year-over-year and extrapolated from that, which led me to believe VW will narrowly pass TSLA by the end of the year. You seem to have better or more recent information than me. If so, please share the

Neoliberalism isn't actually great for human? Who would have thought...? Living when 'there is no such thing as society' makes you feel alone? Such surprise! Isolating people, destroying communities, and pushing everyone to l

Yeah, but this is only half-true. BYD produces as much hybrids as full-EVs, so Tesla is still the biggest maker of full EVs. What I was saying: If you extrapolate year-over-year sales of full EVs, Volkswagen will likely sell more full EVs t

> buy more time until Tesla shares recover The problem is that Tesla is massively over-inflated and Musk knows it and many people believe that was actually the reason for the whole twitter thing (Musk converting overinflated Tesla shares

How much money do you have to start with? I don't wanna be super-negative here, but that is by far the most important info, and that you didn't add this information makes me think your priorities aren't where they should be,

Veritasium is always 100% clickbaity title, even more clickbaity thumbnail, and when you then watch the video, it is only like 80% (sometimes less) true. This might be tolerable for a consumertech/entertainment/cooking/etc ch

Here is the thread reader: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1545510413982474253.html My opinion: this isn't very helpful. These concepts are too complex for 280 characters. It might be useful to remind you what

They use screenshots to give an idea of the visual output. It's truly astonishing!

I think your 'only advantage' is a bit premature. 3 seconds thought: Robotaxis can't get covid (or warthog-flu or whatever new pandemic the next years will bring), which might be an advantage to some customers. Having said th

Are you a lawyer? Because 5days ago, you wrote "I am a developer..." If you are not, where does the "all he has to show...." part come from? Do you have a source?

I went for a long walk. When I came back, HN was still down. :(

I don't know which column you specifically refer to, but https://newsletterhunt.com/newsletters/money-stuff-by-matt-l... gives you not just the list, but also the full text.

I spent far too much time on Reddit and the chans, where sarcasm often is the default mode. Here, everything is business-casual, but serious, even the trolls. :)

Good point. Have an upvote.

I didn't even download it, so it would be rude to ask for a refund.

I really love HN being a sarcasm-averse place.

It says my mobile device is not supported. Given I use what is perhaps the most popular mobile device on the planet, that seems like an oversight.

Of course, I was stupid. Thanks for correction!

I want to snidely remark in an HN thread that if you make a thing that generates visual output, you should show some examples of that output.

I disagree. Just having FB in your public CV makes you an interested party already. Given you were sec lead at a FB project it is even conceivable you hold FB stock, which would make you a very interested party. I advise you to add a COI

That is what I proposed above, but very few seem to have understood it. Thanks for a different way of phrasing. Much appreciated.

It gets computationally more expensive. At the moment, if you have some random laptop, yes, surely, only low-res is possible. If you have an A100 or something like that, mich higher resolution. It's just getting ever more computational

I was proposing to skip the (computationally expensive) step of approximation of the illumination effects on the subject within the live deepfake model, and just do a (computationally cheap) filter over the webcam image to be sent out. I wa
