Look up acoustic cameras on YouTube, there are some pretty impressive demonstrations of their capability. This is one of the companies I've been watching for a while, but it looks like FLIR and some other big names are getting into it

I'm effectively a complete layman in this (although I do see some parallels to physical positional encoders, which is interesting) so at first read this entire thing went WAAAAY over my head. At first glance it seemed to be way overco

That's probably in part because mid-level management (like me) didn't get promoted to that role because we are great coaches. I spend the vast majority of my time putting out fires, protecting the team from bullshit, making offer

Comb filtering ( https://youtu.be/Amj4UevyRfU?si=5pwjHKwAw6bdmG2x ) plays a role in this. I was listening to a podcast and realized I could hear the speaker turning pages under the microphone by the way it affected their voic

I think it just attacks the wholeness of ‘self’ and starts to reveal the true complexity of nature.

If the authors or anyone else that works on a voice model are in here, do you ever get creeped out or feel the sounds you’re getting from the system have a physiological effect on you?

Side note, I started monitoring with a cuff-style monitor over the past month, and one thing that’s super important is keeping the cuff at about heart level. The cuff I got actually reminds you of this verbally. While it obviously makes sen

I’ve never seen or worked with a company using the cloud version of any of their products. I worked at a place with one of the largest bitbucket installs in the world, so they weren’t little shops.

This is some juvenile shit, man. What did you hope to prove? That I'm right? That songs that I feel a connection to sound terrible to you? An astute reader with some basic emotional intelligence would notice that is the entire point

This is a tad overwrought. There is a creative process, but it’s much more akin to simple producing rather than composing. My point wasn’t to debate the merit of generated music, it was simply to highlight the effect I described.

I have no explanation. It’s not a sense of pride or accomplishment. I don’t know what it is. Maybe a small amount of pride. It’s hard to say. But there is a definite connection that feels different listening to songs i requested vs thos

One thing I've noticed with the set of music generation tools (eg Udio, Suno) is that there's a sort of profound attachment to songs that you create. I've never made music the old fashioned way so I'm guessing the same

Fun fact. The estimated number of stars in the Milky Way (~2e11-4e11) is within an order of magnitude of the estimated number of individual particles of smoke in a cigarette (~1e12).

I’ve probably bought ten books in the last five years that I’ve never read. I’ve heard at least one ad from dozens (probably a hundred) podcast episodes that I didn’t finish.
