Seems like true neuromorphoric computing has more of future than quantum computing. We assume processing power and iterations go together, but what happens when we get better at self-learning software like our wetware?

Honest question: why don’t universities use socioeconomic status (SES) alone for admissions? Don’t they get IRS docs for financial aid? And given that disparities tied to SES affect child development and opportunities.

Very disappointing, unlike the school up the street with a literal fenced in Yard, MIT is embedded in Cambridge off the street. I’m sure that’s created some challenges, but accessibility seems central to hands and minds.

The company “office” is a left over concept from the factory - industrialized labor in a shared space. The work-from-home benefits to individuals and society far outweigh the work-from-office benefits to individuals and companies. If you ne

Surprised no one has nailed a use case for semantic tags and their associations. Python and snake doesn’t require hierarchies to differentiate from Python and coding. Why aren’t co-occurrences within and between content samples enough?

And yet, nothing Zuck says will help me to trust him. Makes me wonder what Meta / Fb could be with a different leader. He’s not a product visionary.

The problem here is the FTC trying to regulate a nascent industry by fiat. The startup is caught up in the silliness of trying to define competition in an area of trade that doesn’t really exist yet. Exactly when the FTC should go find some

Is there a local library you can work at? I know not the same, but most have broadband, it’s quiet, and you can keep work hours separate from family time. Some even have private rooms.

To the point, the photorealistic Lion King doubled the box office of Coco ($1.6B vs $800M). No comparison on what’s better art. Respect that the same company does both.

Sure, but would Encanto have surpassed more of the remakes? I’m not sure. No recognizable IP, no big explosions, trailers didn’t exactly lend themselves to an event movie. Not exactly characters for the theme parks either.

And yes, I recognize that most of those are Pixar, but Encanto from Walt Disney Animation is extraordinary in every way. Yet the worldwide box office was less than the Dumbo remake. I respect Disney bc they make money and art, even when art

A lot of good points in here on degrading art for photorealism in the remakes. But we’ve really been loving the originals that keep coming and changing the formula from princesses and villains to families and growth. From Soul to Encanto to
