It would have absolutely prevented this person from getting identified. It looks like some kids doing a climate protest. I can't but help read your post in comic book guys voice.

So ... squating a building and running a punk climate action is enough to de-anonymize a proton mail account? Jesus. https://twitter.com/OnEstLaTech/status/1434661903293423618

I had an experience where for a couple weeks I could playback symphonic music in my head and be able to control the loudness of individual sections, repeat passages, etc. with the same fidelity as a lived experience. I knew it was meme-erex

The lectures are good, the LECTURER is galaxy class. Everyone regardless of discipline should watch the lectures for their metacognitive qualities alone. Sapolsky could literally give a lecture on shit and I'd be at the bus stop, someo

One approach that I find interesting is to use Wasm because it was designed as a portable execution format for lots of language types. It has an amazing amount of flexibility for byte working and execution. It is fairly trivial to see all o

The arch of ScyllaDB blew my mind gotta say. Great talk [1] by Avi Kivity, co-founder of Scylla that goes over the design and architecture. Glommio [2] (believe it used to be called Scipio) is a thread-per-core framework for Rust modeled af

I couldn't find any benchmarks on the site. How much slower is it?

I think the future is in something like Redbox+Dialysis, perhaps even as an acquisition target since their markets overlap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ep-f7uBd8Gc

I'd much rather use OSS like Aerospike or ScyllaDB for this workload and still retain some agency over my deployment. Getting a system like this right is super hard, and not being OSS, you are at the mercy of the cloud provider to fix

From a linked research article on the main site, they had a compelling plan bounce energy around with mirrors so you don't have reconversion losses. Tracking mirrors and solar panels. The light from the sun is highly collimated.

Would virtual physical simulation have helped in this case? What was the phase lag between valve actuation and the measured signal? Create a metalearner than can do one-shot learning when it gets access to physical hardware?

Reverse lamp post? We don't routinely take MRIs because of false positives, meaning we might have more questions than answers so we won't ask. Seems like neuroscience is still in the phase of reducing misunderstanding.

Which is fine because what would normally be handled by the SIMD will be custom silicon for most customers and have a 4-100x speedup over what SIMD could provide.
