There are other models that do that, such as photogrammetry models. But someone could possibly extend the work so it was a few photos rather than one or many. The way you ask the question makes it sound like you think it was a trivial detai

There is a fundamental misunderstanding about popularity. People think that popularity is directly related to merit or rationality. Technical things are largely popular for the same reason non-technical things are popular: trends. In other

I know this is not really what they mean, but in case you want to give AI a literal VM, I have a service that deploys a VM with an open source AI agent on it that can act as a sysadmin. Also gets it's own IP address. https://

GMTec AMD Ryzen™ AI Max+ 395 --EVO-X2 AI Mini PC seems pretty similar and only $2000. Would be interested to see head to head benchmarks including power usage between those mini PCs and the Nvidia Thor.

Seems like a great concept. Hope they are commercially successful. It reminded me about another geothermal energy idea: dig about 3 or so miles straight down and harvest the heat that is there already. I guess that's a lot harder than

It's not a contradiction. AI is now an important tool to have for software engineers. It's not at the stage where you can just let it do the work without supervising and refining what it outputs.

Just to check, this means we can use some extra lines in the nginx configuration as an alternative to installing and running certbot, right? Also does it make it easier for there to be alternatives to Let's Encrypt?

I don't think it's really a fair claim in an educational context. There are at least two completely modern computers (which I assume means fairly complex) including the Raspberry PI and another one he is using the the bus or somet

How does that Framework Desktop compare with the "GMKtec AI Mini Ryzen Al Max+ 395 128GB" mini PC? I suspect this one is very similar hardware and a slightly better deal if you give up the cool factor of Framework. Although I don&

What's your source for any of that? I think the $6 million thing was identified as a lie they felt was necessary because of GPU export laws.

There is huge pressure to prove and scale radical alternative paradigms like memory-centric compute such as memristors, or SNNs, etc. That's why I am surprised we don't hear a lot about very large speculative investments in these

The pricing is dramatically better than Opus for gpt-5 since that is now comparable to Gemini 2.5 Pro.

It's like 5% better. I think they obviously had no choice but to be price competitive with Gemini 2.5 Pro. Especially for Cursor to change their default.

Very interesting content thank you. I don't understand why you would not use a CRT with this (especially if you are showing off your setup) or why you would have that lamp on right next to the screen just providing glare.

There's a program called `durdraw` for Linux that works well for 'playing' the files. But it won't leave it on the screen afterward as far as I can tell. Also look for the Perfect DOS VGA 437 font. durdraw -p file.ans
