Google recently released their paper "Image Generators are Generalist Vision Learners" about exactly this. They fine tuned Nano Banana pro into what they call Vision Banana which can do segmentation etc. https://arxiv.o

Google (Alphabet) owns 6% of SpaceX which they bought for $12B in 2015. They want to maximize the value of their investment.

Is this another circular investment to help pump up the stock valuation? Why would Google need to rent that much compute? > Google parent Alphabet has made a windfall from backing SpaceX, which was worth $12 billion at the time of its 20

If Russian GNSS receivers wasn't affected they wouldn't need fiber optic drones, Ukraine is jamming both the small and large drones. Russia have both their own Kometa system to try to filter out the jamming signals, and plenty of

The GNSS jamming in Ukraine is mostly from Ukraine themselves, to defend against Russian drones and guided bombs. Just as Iran jams GNSS, and Venezuela jammed GNSS ahead of the attack. Didn't really help though. https://arst

Not only Poland, they have jammers around St Petersburg as well which affects Finland, there have been reports about boats losing GNSS reception in Swedish waters, etc. This has been going on for years. Don't worry though, it's be

It's not completely true, but there are hundreds of thousands of visas given to Russian tourists each year by European countries, something that's hopefully will get corrected soon. > According to data cited in Wednesday&#x27

Yes, it's very wide spread and not carefully aimed at all. It's also not done by satellite but a ground based station. https://gpsjam.org/

When looking at their linked interactive viewer it looks like they need 128 spp for the image quality to equal 3dgs. Maybe you can reduce that with some temporal tricks and noise reduction filtering, but that's still a lot of samples.

They call it a diffusion model, but it's based on Flux.2 which is a rectified flow model.

Volvo was bought by Ford in 1999 and then sold by Ford to Geely in 2010. It had nothing to do with software related r&d, it was mostly down to Ford needing money after the financial crisis. Volvo have factories in Sweden, Belgium, USA,

Why are we having computer programs generate source code in the first place? Shouldn't they generate something lower level, like an AST or some computational graph or something? Source code is made to be written and read by humans, and

The Polestar 6 is a much better looking electric sportscar IMO, although that's mostly a concept car at the moment.

I don't know what point you're trying to make, but my point was that laptop screens are small because they're the result of a compromise to make them portable, and we shouldn't consider them normal size. If you get an ac

What do you consider to be a "normal size screen"? Since you mention trackpad I assume it's a laptop, so 13-15 inches? That was considered a normal size screen in the 90s, I don't think we should consider the compromise

Cuda also compiles to PTX, which makes it much easier to distribute and therefore also easier for users to actually use. Doesn't matter that much when you're writing code for specific hardware like MI300X, but it's part of th

Frankly, I find the attitude towards AI coding here on HN to be both disappointing and a bit disgusting. Not long ago places like this where software developers gathered were full of various texts about how important it was to be able to re

Yes, but why are they estimating the features when they are already available? They can estimate the other measurements from height etc, and just use the known inputs as is. I don't get the point of passing them through a model at all.

by sorenjan 5mo ago
I don't understand why the height and weight errors aren't 0 when they are known inputs? If I say how tall I am, why is the model estimating something else?

A version of this comment is posted in all submissions about Low Rank Adapters. I don't see how "Learning to reason in 13 parameters" would apply to low power radio communication, so it's even less relevant this time. &g
