The rendering is a bit weird. It's disorienting to have the trains simultaneously underneath the map and occluding it. It also seems like the z-buffer is not being used correctly when rendering the train cars.

It was obvious from the live demo that this thing still hasn't learned when to shut up. When it stops tacking on "I'm here when you need me" to every response that could have just been "ok" or simply silence, m

What is the actual per token price? The benchmarks look similar to Grok 4.5 also released today and priced at $2/M input tokens and $6/M output tokens.

When you use words incorrectly to disguise the nature and intent of these policies, you are purposefully trying to be misunderstood.

It's not "insurance". There is no coverage of any losses; no claims process. The correct term is "graft".

Requiring SpaceX to set up a token reseller just to meet the the ownership requirement does exactly nothing for "national security". It's pure graft for whoever gets handed ownership of the reseller and nothing more. In fact

Meh. I have gigabit fiber and it's enough for me right now. I could pay for 5 gigabit, but why? The last mile is almost never the bottleneck in my connection. 99% of the time it's upstream somewhere, with the only real exception b

That's crazy, $4,586 for 32 GB RAM? Asus is selling an X2 Elite Extreme laptop with 48 GB RAM for $1,699.99 and it's in stock at Best Buy today. What is HP thinking?

Do people browse arxiv or monitor new posts like reddit or something? I only visit when I encounter a link to it or when I search for a specific paper.

I'm aware of what you've said about this in the past. I'm expressing my disagreement. HN would be improved dramatically by a significant change in where this line is drawn.

I don't think "appetite to discuss" should be a justification to override the guidelines against political submissions and discussion. There is far too much politics on HN and it leaks into unrelated discussions too. There ar

Not generally, no. Capacitors usually store electrons in a conductor so they are free to move instantly. Movement of free electrons within a conductor is not considered a chemical reaction.

This scanner doesn't inject bubble contrast either. A nurse does it. Obviously a nurse could do that when you use the Midjourney scanner too...

Yeah but my port is better because it supports phones/touch and gamepads and multiplayer over UDP and has better performance and a bunch of other small details.

Did you miss that this has been shipped in Chrome for 6 years? How many drive-by-download viruses has your machine gotten since then? Zero for me...

Yes I think there's huge potential in this direction. Forum moderation could be made far more scalable this way. If I didn't have another project I was already working on I'd be trying it right now.

Yeah, that's an issue only admins can address. I would prefer much more aggressive enforcement of the rules about politics, and maybe some rule changes.

HN doesn't seem interested in robotics generally. You'll see it from time to time but the vast majority of great stuff never makes it to the front page. It's a shame, especially considering (as you point out) the constant pol

VR controllers are significantly better than a SpaceMouse for teleoperation. Even if I already had a SpaceMouse I would buy a Quest 3s and switch to it, if I was doing more than a trivial amount of teleoperation. (As is typical with robot t

You'd rather we end up with Chinese humanoids? Because they're coming either way.

Yeah. Google was too impatient and forced BD to productize prematurely (Spot, Handle), then dumped them when it didn't work out immediately. AI just wasn't ready yet. Imagine if Google had let BD focus on research until DeepMind w

Wow, the Epley maneuver doesn't help, huh? I don't think these dots would help either, as their movement wouldn't match the inner ear sensation you feel.

Dimenhydrinate has undesirable side effects. My wife cannot ride buses and gets sick on planes too. It restricts our travel quite a bit.

In my family, Apple's implementation helps only a small amount if at all. I'd also love to see some real statistics. What I think is really missing is coverage of peripheral vision, so maybe a similar feature built into AR glasses
