It's called evolution. Unfortunately the rate at which we are changing the climate is causing a mass extinction and die-off event. In the article it says "does not mean that polar bears are at any less risk of extinction". Do

This is a harness problem just as much as it is a model problem. I've been working on Abject ( https://abject.world ) and the project has agents. I took a different approach than most agent frameworks via the goal system, but

Back in the 90s I made a 3d engine (software renderer) and used frustum culling. But computing the frustum intersection every time was too slow. So one technique I did was add a count to each polygon. If the polygon was outside the view fru

The Dawn of Everything is not a throw away source. It's one of the most well researched anthropological and sociological works.

Thanks! Can you elaborate on what you mean by the lost art of Documentation?

Actually a lot of the enlightenment ideas (which our government is based on) came from native American critiques of European societies. Read The Dawn of Everything for the details.

If you don't want to hack on it, you can just download the desktop apps for Mac, Linux, or Windows. Note the system is alpha, but I believe usable enough to do some fun stuff! pnpm awake starts the backend pnpm scry starts the client.

Their objectives keep shifting and starship is far behind schedule. Sure, it's a success if you keep objectives small. They could have tried for LEO ages ago but didn't. Each launch should maximize learning and having small object

It's almost like if you don't have dependencies and coupling, you really just end up with a toolbox with widgets that don't do anything special when put together.

This article really misses the point of Collaboration. In biology there is the concept of symbiogenesis ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbiogenesis ). We are writing and speaking on the web because of collaboration. Th

You are right. We don't need more EVs. Lets get rid of cars completely and built cheap electrified public transport. Make ICE cars illiegal. Going all EV won't help the environment. Going all public transport would.

I think the magic sauce in this project is the fact that they convert diffs in spec to diffs in code, which is likely more stable than just regenerating the whole thing.

Senior engineers have been 'vibe coding' for over a decade before AI. Think what they do, they look at PRs all day and comment. Magically the code change reflecting their comments. It's the same thing now but machines are doi

Literally everyone working for a wage is creating more value for others than they consume. The problem is the rent seekers are capturing that value. This is a crucial part geohot is missing. What people often don't think about and they

I used to use a Sony phone with Sailfish but stopped when US shifted to voice over LTE and phones I used were not supported by the networks. If this phone works on US networks, I can't wait to get rid of my Android phone for sailfish.

The fact that you are thinking at the company level instead of an international world wide Manhattan project level should suggest how much you might not grasp the scale of the problem.

You forget the UI killed a million Iraqis and also had a torture prison. I don't think the US has every had the high ground.

Since the industrial revolution we've emitted about 1.5 trillion tonnes of CO2. Direct air capture requires roughly 1,500 kWh per tonne, so recapturing all of it would take around 2,250,000 TWh. Current global electricity production is

Regarding carbon capture, it will take more energy to capture the carbon than we burned putting it up there in the first place. Alan Kay, who actually did some systems work on the environment, explained it to me that the climate system is l

Long time ago I worked for a company that I learned was selling it's software to help target people during the Iraq war. I quit because I cannot support building software that kills people. This is a message to people working for that
