Already seeing tons of news stories about 'ChatGPT' inducing psychosis. The one that sticks in my mind was the 35-year old in Florida that was gunned down by policy after his AI girlfriend claimed to be being killed by OpenAI.

Please explain the ways the military leaders fucked up the wars. I'm only 40 so I may not have lived through as many wars as you but the actual 'war' parts of the wars that have involved the US seem to have gone off without a

An additional layer of insight to the chicken/egg problem: the developer of the software we are using was founded by someone in the construction industry, not software. I think one of the issue with the adoption of AR is that there is

Yes, the 3D overlay is the entire point. A heads up display is just looking at the blueprint on a piece of paper with an additional layer of complexity, it wouldn't remove the need to manually measure, nor would it provide any assistan

We work with all of the large general contractors in the steel construction industry. Right now, it's turned into one contract, but we are the second company the client has employed since the first company they hired failed to produce

The biggest issue comes from area mapping. In order to keep the hologram steady and anchored you need to perform a mapping process so that the helmet recognizes both the physical steel assembly and a bit of the surrounding area to keep it s

Yes, the company I work for has started using Hololens 2. We have a program that can overlay the 3D models from our CAD program onto the physical steel assemblies for QC. When it works, it works well and enables our quality checkers to perf

Ah, found your issue. You are subscribed to the incorrect mainstream view that all native Americans nations were more or less exactly the same. You'd have as much success do this as you would learning about the Roman's by studying

Do you have a link to those histories? Everything I've seen is saying the Menominee were a settled people pre-Columbian. https://www.mpm.edu/index.php/content/wirp/ICW-153

Pretty much, and it's a shame because AR has so much potential. Our company has started using a AR product in our quality control. It really doesn't take using it for long to realize the potential, being able to overlay a CAD mode

The sales during the launch window will only make up a fraction of lifetime sales. The average person is happy to wait for more titles and a second hand market to emerge. This also becomes more true the older you get, I do want a Switch 2 b

The biggest impact cryptocurrency has had on my life is the ability to pay criminals after they've taken your data hostage. It's awesome that we've invented a way to make creating and distributing malware profitable.

I enjoy that all of the social media networks are praising this bill that they believe will take the responsibility for verifying user age off of them.

When I read 7-digit my first thought was this seems a bit short sighted. Then I saw the the address was going to be a combination of letters and numbers. Since this is the English page for The Japan Times I'll give them a pass on using

Unfortunately all I can offer is another 2nd hand story I saw posted recently on some social media site or message board. It was a person complaining about how they were being passed up for promotion and not receiving praise from management

Considering that the research paper states that the new businesses were started post-pandemic, I wonder how many of these remote workers were encouraged to start their own business due to not wanting to deal with return to office.

Considering 10^1100 years was the previously postulated time to decay then, assuming the Netherlands Research School for Astronomy is correct in their 10^78 years calculation, 10 years is still significantly closer to the correct date.

At the very least the few weirdos that seem to create daily accounts just to get banned after 2-3 posts are funding forum by doing so.

I did the same about a year ago. Large enough that the community is extremely diverse with a wide range of life experiences but small enough that you'll start to recognize certain people. Also the completely linear threads means people

You do make a good point. One of the largest gaming company started as a toy company, and their star developer started as a toy designer.

Don't think I've ever encounter someone that didn't become nostalgic for 10 after having to switch to 11. So many pointless UI changes, and just like with 8 none of them are necessary to force the user to use beyond some ince

I image they are talking about something like ranked choice voting. Australia currently uses a system like it instead of first past the post. From what I've heard it doesn't really stop a 2 party system from forming, but it does k
