It depends on the goal, but the whole family of NeRF techniques have been achieving some really interesting results.

They don't go into much detail of HCT here, but I'm curious on their thoughts of the criticisms of CAM16 that lead to oklab: https://bottosson.github.io/posts/oklab/

Would you say that Ads are still unethical if they're not paid for? As just an anecdote, I'm always shocked by the amount of advertising at Burning Man. There's always people trying to get you to come to their event or join i

No, the coin doesn't have a memory, so the chance of tails is still 40% making it still optimal to choose heads.

It's an interesting concept, but it doesn't give much information on how the display works. The display looks to be based on a dihedral corner reflector array. I found this image which shows it pretty well. [0] [0] - https:/

Yeah, that makes sense. There's some mental gymnastics involved in writing shaders since you're writing the code from the perspective of an individual pixel. As opposed to other methods like using Processing or the HTML canvas whe

Graphical programming is a blast. I can totally see how it feels overwhelming, especially with a lot of ways to do the same thing. I will say though that once you get started a lot of the knowledge is transferable to different technologies

I totally hear that. Especially if people are commenting that they were thrown off. I just wanted to make sure people knew to use this term if you're looking to learn more about the topic of this project. If anyone is looking to implem

I work in an area like this. I'm in the automotive space where there's just a whole slew of industry knowledge to stay on top of; both business practices that change frequently as well as regulatory information. It's pretty r

With the Quest being able to be used as both a PC VR and and standalone, why not Quest? I'm saying this as someone who owns 4 different VR headsets, and I find myself using my Quest 1 the most.

How would I use contravariants to improve the architecture of some code? I geek out on articles like this, but I frequently struggle to see where I would actually apply it.

I'd also add reducing friction. It seems the goal here is to reduce the amount of time it takes to get the user to the exact functionality they need in the shortest amount of time with a user experience that makes it feel seamless.

Focusing their product line like this is a great move. I hope that they do more to hone in on overall usability for the average user, and continue to expand beyond gamers as their core persona. Focusing on standalone VR, hand tracking, and

This is likely the case, but can you site some sources?

The person who runs the model won’t be able to infer anything. The result of the model is itself encrypted, and would need to be decrypted using the original encryption key.

You can't easily know where your elbows are correctly. In games where they try to fake it, it feels dysphoric to have the elbows in the wrong place.

The truth is though, if you make user focused B2B software, it likely won't do well. I worked on a product recently where we built a new stripped down mobile version of our enterprise software that was extremely easy to use for the ave

I haven't had a chance to dig into this paper yet, but for a similar system Swarm [0], there is a system of insurance and escrow on file chunks, and a system of verifying the hash of piece of the file to see if they still have its cont

What's the problem with them being on random machines? I believe the purpose of Filecoin and other projects like Swarm is to incentives people to store the files long term and in some cases verify that those files are still being held.

I believe that's what projects like Filecoin and Swarm are trying to solve. How do you incentivise long term storage of these files.

I'm a bit of a VR enthusiast, and I'm not a gamer, so I think I can answer some of these. >- Outside of car games, space sims, or any other game where the main character is mostly sitting down, does VR work well? Very well. The

I'm rather surprised that amongst the speculation in the comments, no one is really considering that maybe Iribe's comments are true. Maybe he really did miss being more involved in the product and engineering part of the job. The
