Should it be possible to coordinate orbits to create permanent clear spots on the sky where observatories are? A LEO no flight zone of sorts.

That's the difference between "inventing things" and "discovering things". If you believe you're inventing a solution, doing just enough to solve the immediate problem and stopping is the consequence. If you be

They make sense for so called audiophiles who don’t understand Nyqist frequency theory. It’s like photographers who are confused about the difference between raw and bitmap (jpeg), videographers confused about the difference between linear

Selling tele-operated robots in the hopes you get AI valuation is borderline scam IMO. This is hiring a human worker with extra steps, worse cost benefit and in a dehumanising manner.

Roasted barley is also appreciated in Italy prepared like an espresso (Caffe d'Orzo), and in Peru as a kind of cappuccino with brown sugar (Pinol).

It’s always useful to look at prior art and review capabilities we might have missed. Innovation can happen by mixing the “good parts” of different old ideas.

Only in theory. The US still forces emergent countries to trade in USD under the menace of tariffs, staging coups, and military intervention.

The military budget is how the US enforces Bretton Woods. The jobs part is just a nice side-effect of any govt. spending.

If you ever worked with mainframe, you'll see a lot of similarities: - Unified interface for object stores - Source code stored with data files - Job runner I also see some similarities with Lisp machine, the fact Python also has a REP

It’s the same narrative as “the communists are developing nukes so we need to develop first”.

Have you taken a look at kids nowadays? They look like fking zombies glued to their smartphones and wireless headphones. I go walk my dog, and not a single kid tries to play with it - only people of my age (40s) do. We’re raising a genera

Isn't it reassuring the entire CC business hinges on a single proprietary appliance inside a cage at some DC? :)

Definitely. The secret will be identifying use cases where AI usage is a potential upside with limited downside, not the current blanket statements about replacing all jobs without considering lifetime ROI. There’s a lot of boring work AI

Git LFS is a major PITA, and if you use GitHub is even worse since there are quotas and rate limits that are charged separately.

I’m bullish on Apple because of that. Tech waves always oscillate between mainframe/thin-client models at first, then commodity hardware catches up. Apple is well positioned to deliver that with the M series, all it takes is for the cu

I’m working on a photo editor. As a first step, I’m collecting all my learnings about color science in a comprehensive article: https://www.riq.net.br/pub/colorscience/

To make parent’s point more exact: from Chen’s definition, these ER diagrams derived from SQL are the “physical” (most low-level) diagrams, you cannot recreate the “logic” or “conceptual” diagrams from it. I guess nowadays few people care a

Don't worry, open source AI will win. There's a reason everybody is desperate to IPO fast and get an exit, their competitive advantage is not lasting long.

Linux killed proprietary UNIX; open source models will kill proprietary AI.

I don't believe it's really that, but the fact that Apple 1) is profitable 2) holds a lot of cash, and 3) has a proven capability to execute new products. So by not attempting to enter market niches, they could be potentially leav

I guess a foldable phone that unfolds to be that large kind of competes/kills the market for iPad, so this kind of user probably expects to store the device in a bag instead of pocket, and use bluetooth / smartwatch / siri to

Such is everything: at first, painstakingly crafted; later, mass produced.

The lscpu from Linux doesn't support Macs, and sysctl output format isn't as human readable, so I've created this small utility.

Good job – but the article seems to introduce new lingo ("sync engine"?) to describe a well known pattern: optimistic user interface.

The fact PHP finally has the features of other mature languages is just table stakes I guess? IMO the article failed articulating what is PHP's unique selling point.

That’s exactly what AI companies want, needing an AI to fix what an AI built is the ultimate vendor lock-in that would justify their valuatuons.

There are two different crowds using "AI": - One crowd is using to research algorithms, libraries, write boilerplate code, write test harnesses, introspect and integrate with APIs, do hands-off refactoring, and automating what wou
