You could, but once you need to turn around and thrust upwards to avoid hitting the ground, you'll need to run the motors HARD, which will make a lot of turbulence right below you, which you then fall into. So you're falling into

I always found it interesting that basic quadcopters work on nothing but a gyroscope which measures angular velocity in 3 dimensions, and optionally an accelerometer for auto-levelling, with 3 dimensions of acceleration. Then of course you

I dunno if you've seen the subreddit, "Sub Simulator GPT2", but I found it around 2020-2021. It seemed to contain GPT2-style models trained/finetuned on several popular subreddits, talking to each other as stereotypical

The tone is written as abrasive to anyone who doesn't already agree, which shows this is more of an emotional opinion piece than open minded objective research. Hype cycles never last forever, but that doesn't mean all the value h

I don't see any real explanation of the CPU in this thing. Is it going to be Grace like on GB200 and Spark?

Privacy and offline operation are valuable or non-negotiable in some cases, but the difference is pretty categorical between what can run on a single card and what can run on a DGX GB200 NVL72 cabinet. Doesn't mean it's not worth

Mercury is orbiting partially inside the Sun, and Jupiter is nearly as wide as the Sun when it should be 1/10 as much, so the planet nodes should be scaled down 10x relative to the Sun. Also, I did a top-down pixel measurement, where I

More like people try doing anything other than use the base OS, and realize the bottom-tier x86 mini-PCs are 3-4x faster for the same price, and can encode a basic video stream without bogging down. If the RPI came with any recent mid-tier

Double-sided USB-C connections require a handshake before sending voltage. USB-A ports can have the 5v line active at all times. Cheap USB C gadgets often don't make the handshake, they just use it as a 5V input, necessitating an A to

The only thing I regularly used a VR headset for, was to join clubs and socialize in VRchat during covid lockdowns. So VR provided an avenue of socializing when there were no better options. VRChat is still growing and up to 70k peak concur

The nebula was created by a supernova that exploded about 1000 years ago, and the images were taken 25 years apart, so it's about 2.5% bigger in the newer photo. Besides the overall expansion, some of the wispy cloudy features seem to

The 300MHz, 400MHz, and 500MHz points requiring only 1.1, 1.3, and 1.5v and with only the last point getting slightly above body temperature, even with no cooling, seem like something that should maybe not be "officially" supporte
