"The staff has grown 55 percent since Dr. Hinton’s forecast of doom, to more than 400 radiologists." Wonder what other forecasts of doom he is wrong about :|.

Interesting product! One problem: I want to get a handle on the quality of online conversations you flag. Do you know that on the free tier, the top 5 you flag are the best of your filter?

They are doing that in East Bay [1] on BART owned land. They had been blocked so far by the most virulent NIMBY trash leading to some of the most scathing coverage [2]. Most have been unblocked and are under construction. The one still bein

So cool! I wonder how the Lidar and ARCore poses were cross-calibrated? Just to avoid this, I would just use a LiDAR equipped iPhone Pro, with industrial grade cross-calibration and still have all the visualization fun.

I mean maybe instead of patholigizing to that level we maybe need to accept that there is a temporal normal distribution to human attention spans and design our systems around it. It feels like semi-autonomous ATC and flight controls were p

I don't know. Even with these tools, I don't want to be doing this work. I'd still hire an entry level graphic designer. I would just expect them to use these tools and 2x-5x their output. That's the only changing I'

But by then 25M would have access to the main trunk of the train generating massive revenues. That's the point. Holding up 25M people to try and include 1M more while bloating costs and showing no progress is the essence of how you kil

"they're going to build the train between Bakersfield and Los Angeles through the Tehachapi Mountains." OMG, just join the I-5 after Bakersfield. It's right there. Why are we barreling through the mountains?

This is the most California article ever written. The author admits that if the line was run along the I-5 it probably wouldn't need all the costly grade-separation and state property issues it's now facing. It may have even finis

I think it's actually the opposite. The latent demand is only present in LA and SF. Fresno and Bakersfield are not car-less cities. Taking a train between them makes no sense (you're gonna have to rent a car on either end). Whil

Super cool, and will definitely check it out. But as a measure for what you can achieve with a course like this: does anyone know what the max tok/s vs iPhone model plot look like, and how does MLX change that plot?

California tried to do this, the bill got watered down in committee [1]. It's probably true that purely GPS-based speed-limiting is not good enough. Imagine being on a 75mph highway with a 25mph service road right next to it and the GP

I think the nuance here is that the income in Universal Basic Income is a stand-in for "everyone's basic needs should be met". But income doesn't guarantee that, because prices go up and down for a variety of reasons. Wh

Let’s strike a deal. Let’s take the current city design boards and repurpose them so that instead of micromanaging stucco colors and setbacks they’re micromanaging visual advertising. Housing gets cheaper, visual advertising disappears.
