Desktops are still a decent means to some ends. The argument made by Strong Towns is that the stroad is not a good means to it's ends. It serves both it's ends badly.

Robotics requires both and neglecting either one will give you bad results, if you even get results. Issues in hardware can be solved in software to some degree and vice versa some things that can be hard to do in software can be solved wi

I know nearly nothing about injection molding, but my understanding was that the part stays in the same mold but they inject a different plastic to fill a different cavity. But I don't know enough about this process, by a large margin.

Ah, I wondered what that was for! Now that I checked again, it's a couple of percent higher than when I read originally, because it's morning now in Europe.

then you have to link to it. But I think that if somehow Mastodon stops making code available (which would be unlikely), you still have provide source code, as long as you run it.

Yes. Or make it available for download some other way. The license text is quite clear.

Take your favorite broad or card game, recognize the game state and suggest an optimal move. I've created a bot for the card game Set years ago using classic computer vision. Should revisit that when I get my OAK-D Lite camera.

Well, that explains: I have a XPS 13 since jan. 2019 and last year I had to replace the battery. It bulged, pushing the keyboard up a bit. Luckily no fire

Would they really not be able to test this on the ground in a vacuum chamber? Or is there no twin still back on Earth? I know Curiosity and Perseverance both have twin back here for some tests.

It will. Times and attitudes have changed since Google's Glassholes. There's going to be resistance from folks putting high intensity LEDs, triggered by Ray-Ban recognizing camera's, bit it'll be shortlived and a very ti

Can anything be engineered retroactively? I mean: the thing flew and landed, so there was clearly some successful engineering going on, before launch. The requirements were heavily influenced by politics, that is for sure.

Apparently, they zap the tin droplet with a soft pulse first to flatten it before hitting it with a big pulse to make the plasma. A former colleague of mine worked on tuning the laser-hitting -droplet process. Happens inside a vacuum of cou

Oh, I'm 100% sure the robot hardware Tesla will make will not look like what is shown in the presentation, because that design makes no sense. There's no room for joints to move etc. The BD hardware looks cluncky, but it is robus

You can have the procedural/functional code only tightly coupled to the datastructures but loose coupling between the other bits.

Im 100% sure Tesla can mass-produce the hardware for such robots. But the biggest challenge is in software, And then the FSD debacle comes to mind. There's major advances in AI needed to get to full self driving and even more advances

I do agree that is would be cheaper, but they're ugly and quite intrusive as I can't read them.

The reason for reading the existing traffic signs is that they already exist. If you would design roads for autonomous cars, you'd replace the signs with eg. radio beacons and the like.

Even if you could personally witness trends over a longer amount of time, it is still easy to attribute that to something else. The process from eg. driving a car via a gas you cannot see to solar radiation being captured warming up the pla

Bezos is a businessman, rockets require engineering. Sure, he studied electrical engineering in the 80s, but I don't think that's going to help Blue Origin catch up with it's main competitor.

Has robotics had such an 'ImageNet moment'? Nothing springs to mind, just slow advancement over decades. If suddenly robot manipulators could grasp any object, operate any knob/switch, tie knots, manipulate cloth, with the sa
