Many moons ago, we looked into doing molds for injection molding in US and China for a simple plastic part. The US based companies quoted 10x more expensive, while the Chinese company we ended up with offered more features (over molding wit

Bringing up the design flaws of my Model Y in any Tesla groups and I got endless amount of toxicity or aggressive responses. Theres a lot of fanboyism unfortunately. Reminds me of Apple during the Jobs era, but more insidious.

There is the 'Additional Grant for Open-Source Projects' section that seems to permit inclusion in open source project. Do you mind explaining why you think this is not enough? I'm not an expert in licenses so genuinely inter

Yes agree, it was totally broken when I tested the API two months ago. Lots of failed to connect and very slow response time. Hoping the update fixes these issues.

This is my 12th month. I quit due to the birth of my son, and honestly he has kept me plenty busy for now. The hardest part for me is the lack of friends who are in the same situation.

I also noticed the laziness compared to Sonnet models but now I feel it’s a good feature. Sonnet models, now I realize, are way too eager to hammer out code with way more likelihood of bugs.

Hmm I always viewed it as sum over orthogonal bases. Sine/Cosine is choice, while there can be many other bases, like Legendre polynomials. Can you explain more how FT is linked to 'a sum over equivalence classes'?

Yeah reverse engineering all the drivers is going to be a huge headache.

Fun rumor: Google shut down the AR effort and transferred the team to project Fuchsia as a way to retain highly skilled employees. So essentially they didn’t have any real technical needs for a new OS.

Yup it’s because they had to rewrite the drivers I presume. Always going to be the biggest issue with any new OS.

Was at Oculus post acquisition and can say that the whole XROS was an annoyance and distraction the core technology teams didn’t need. There were so many issues with multiple tech stacks that needed fixing first. Mind you, this XROS idea ca

I think people have forgotten about Google Fuchsia which I guess is a good sign for a new OS. They’ve done quite well in deploying it seamlessly to their consumer devices.

I was. My parents had first versions of analog cell phones and they were truly live savers no one ever complained about how they will destroy society.

I've noticed that the younger you are, the most likely you're in love with AI. So the tide will turn eventually, for better or worse. I talked to someone recently who claims with no irony that 'AI has zero downside'. I d

Some people will say that iOS has an option for ‘reduce transparency’ that mitigates the issue. But every time I turn it on, there’s a general lack of design polish in the OS and apps due to it not being the default. Another point: I wonder

Very neat, love how there’s a formality level selection! Google translate has such bad tendencies to use very formal language (at least when translating into Thai) that it’s almost useless in real life. Some English to Thai examples I tried

Having explored Twillio for text messaging recently, turns out it’s getting very hard to be able to send them programmatically in the US due to lengthy A2P registration process. I understand in spirit this aims to reduce text spam, but my f

I'm sure you will get very polarized opinion here. I wish good luck to your project. Getting to the goal faster can be great. I've started illustrating books for my son and I can see the appeal for this tool, especially as a non-a

From data science perspective, the volume of the data also encodes really valuable information, so it’s good to also log the number of data points each one represents. For example, if sampling rate comes out to be 10%, have a field that enc

My understanding of the motivation for this (really neat) hack is that cheap FPGA boards lack IO pins to interface to USB3 interface chip and external components (i.e. parallel DAC) at the same time. Seems like these boards tend to have bui

I dunno, personally when I teach SQL to engineers, it’s not the syntax that is the main difficulty (yes it can be improved) but the relational data mental model that trips people up. They all want sequential data processing and loops. Trans

Sometimes I forget to stir and have to reboil the pasta. Long noodles like spaghetti will stick like crazy and have inconsistent cooking. If I need to cook quickly I use less water. Otherwise more water is hands off.
