Petition to rename them to the Office of Weights and Biases, haha.

Everything old is new again, huh. I remember people doing this back in the early llama days, restricting grammars to yes and no tokens or 0 and 1 and then classifying questions. Usually it was rather ass in terms of performance cause no mod

It's not about security, it's about lazyness. These are the people who still employ Cobol devs cause they don't want to migrate off existing mainframes. I've yet to see a banking app that was not an objective trainwreck.

That only works if the one you're trying to guide can figure it out mostly on their own and is interested in cooperating. Aka does not work for anything below university level.

"The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim." - Dijkstra Yes, that Dijkstra.

Ha, I actually have insane battery anxiety usually, but even my decade old Kindle still runs for a solid month on a single charge so I've never actually had that problem at all.

I think this is analogus to lowering it bit by bit in small but manageable head bonks.

Not sure where I've read this, one of the main causes is supposedly ship ownership. Firms that operate ships pay for the fuel and would benefit from the retrofit for some specific routes. Outside a few that operate their own fleet, mos

Idk, Iridium-Cosmos debris are still absolutely everywhere [0] after almost 20 years. The only place a ship collision's gonna leave debris is directly under it. [0] https://ajmas.github.io/StuffInSpace

A sufficiently light absorbing material is indistinguishable from infinity to a lidar. Or simply add a mirror that redirects it sideways, those can't be detected either.

> like its API is not robust and in worse shape than a cheap toy This guy military techs :P It is a DDS API, so if ROS 2 is anything to go by then it probably doesn't work at all at least 40% of the time.

It's still O(log n) to find the right page from a closed book. Compare that entire rube goldberg machine with one button press on an e-reader.

Debris from a collision on water won't spread out into millions of floating pieces that speed around faster than a bullet, ripping random ships on the other side of the world to shreds.

Well that's certainly the most ridiculous way of keeping track I've ever heard of :D Not only do you always have to scroll through the pages to find the right one, you also have to mess with your phone a bit first.

And you don't even have to hold it open and mess with bookmarks which at least to me was always super annoying. And the built in lamp, chapter search and dictionary. And single tap page forward and back. Physical books are beyond obsol

I'm not super up to date on new releases, the one I'm most familiar with is X-VLA which predicts gripper poses and relative movement deltas for kinematics to move to instead of joints, and trains on forward kinematic gripper poses

by moffkalast 11d ago
One would expect it to at least have calibration and inverse kinematics solved. That's still a massive pain point for the SO-ARM101 despite it being so common now, since there's no base_link to gripper calibration nor sag compensa

No, you need a much higher res screen to do so. A 4k screen a meter away will have ridiculously higher pixel density per degree of vision than a 2K screen directly in front of your eye that will only ever be able to do very partial coverage

SteamOS doesn't use APK files afaik, it's just desktop linux. Probably an AppImage executable? Ought to be explained in Steamworks somewhere.

Ah, definitely a subtle reference to Black Mesa. Bravo Valve.

That seems like a really good fit, since they might actually run onboard at a usable framerate?

by moffkalast 12d ago
Same. I'd say it's ridiculous to even mention it as a feature, it's more like a compatibility fallback. A shitty monitor showing an even shittier monitor while you have a fat brick strapped to your face. Maybe this gen is bet

I don't think that follows when free plans to get people interested are still a thing. Most people aren't paying anything at all.

Well AMD does have the Steam Machine now, they really like doing console integrations. Shame it won't really sell given the pricing situation.

Anyone can put anything on arxiv, it counts the same as printing it on tissue paper.
