I kinda think you’re out of order. Market it. If that gets some traction, maybe it’s a good idea, and maybe try to execute.

Huh. That's a think I've had vague notions of, but you've made pretty explicit. Technology under pressure looks a lot like biology.

We really did this wrong. We should get paid for every time the lines are run.

You might want to get that checked out. Occasionally mis writing a memory is pretty normal. Constant deja vu is usually an indicator of bad stuff happening in your brain. Like busted hardware.

The controversy is stills that don't appear in the movie. For example, Chicago burning, but Chicago isn't in the movie. Doesn't seem to be about AI, so much as the changing face of movie marketing. kinda. if you squint hard.

yes, but not permanently. You can certainly get dazzled by bright headlights, I can anyway. but laser light, like staring into the sun, will destroy the delicate structure of your retina, and it doesn't grow back.

An alternative view, power companies point the finger at drones for outages or fires. Look the other way when people are stealing pennies. When the billion dollar bill comes in, hand it off to the police. Let them identify the operator, and

I'd say less transmitting, and more preparation of the message. "Please move" or "Get the fuck out of the goddamn way" both communicate the same information, one a bit more colorfully. establishing and maintaining c

I learned this in Minecraft. I’d wired up ttls in college for intro to ee for cs majors, which was fun. But ram was a beast. I guess I’ll build another tower and upgrade to a full 1k. Ram takes so much space.

I don't know, but I think the big real industrial kind can really really hurt or kill people. I think the limiter on smaller arms is quality servos with real location encoders - this one costs a couple hundred bucks for motors. Not cla

I think they make a joke out of the explanation. Iirc, Margot Robbie explains it, while taking a bath.

Trying to get a sense of what's going on - and you seem knowledgeable. Is this thumbnail a reasonable approximation? To my completely uninformed mind, it seems like you're saying, there's no huge plate to plate buildup of pre

I'm no expert, but I think it's fair to call a boiler failure an explosion. you're going to have a ton of steam pressure in a confined space. Not like a gasoline or dinamite explosion, but still a hell of a boom. although may

You tried longer than I did. maybe 2 years or so, probably less. I do really like my cheap double sided pull saw. I don't think I realized how much extra control I have with that longer handle, till I read some of the links that talk a

I added 2 numbers and came up with 5. What numbers did I add? You can’t know, because the abstraction (add) destroys information. A “good “ abstraction destroys information that doesn’t matter, or maybe matter in a given context. You can ha

I think the windows linux analogy is pretty apt. especially around the win95/98 days. Getting some random laptop and figuring out what kernel mods to enable and hope that the specific chipset revision was supported, or maybe a patch av

AI research is old. There's an (apocryphal?) 30 year old tale about using computer vision to detect tanks. All the photos of tanks had clouds in the sky. And few to none of the counter examples had clouds. So darpa paid for an expensiv

I think the idea is, no attacking. Retaliation is fine.

I’m having trouble recalling, call cc just fixes the stack, right? If you mess with the heap, that sticks around? The backtracking example is a good one. I vaguely remember needing to be careful about global state, or visible in a given con

I think bitwize's reply is one of the best comments I've read here. If you don't have the context it's really pretty condescending and snarky. but, hexdecoctbin thanked them for the reply. based on your username, I'

I grew up in a rural area, on a moonless night, without a fire, as well as giving your vision some time to adjust to the darkness, you can see crazy amounts of stars along the Milky Way plane. I would guess, reflected moonlight (moon over t

this makes me want to roll my own. But it's such a huge undertaking (maybe?). I didn't realize it was a rebalancing. But seriously, I have no regrets. if nothing else, the incentive alignment matches my values better.

Kagi is rad. I signed up about two months ago. yeah. I'm not comfortable using it at work, so I search on my personal phone. it works like google should (or did). It's hard to quantify. But yeah. Write your own engine (which isn&#

I would swear there was a company in the late 90's that sold luxury submarines. Not submersible super-yachts. I thought it was the neatest thing till I realized you needed like 20 close friends to crew the thing. And far more dollars t

I remember looking at these machines a while ago. Seems neat. I don’t have the waste volume to support the floor space. Very cool project though.
