Gearing up to put a hefty price on AGI. You can only run it if you have a very costly certificate which probably requires detailed security clearances as well.

Curious, what is the modern version of Chipwits is written in?

Nice idea, but the syntax seems hacky.

If they could shrink the actuators down to a finer resolution they might have something. Theree “tactils” per square inch seems rather crude.

I think the main indicator of intelligent civilization would be burial sites and memorial monuments. While 10s of millions of years of geological change would certainly make these hard to determine, an advanced civilization is likely to pro

Maybe it’s time that they stop trying to follow and lead. What about supporting a better hypertext meta language under a `moz:` protocol that’s only guaranteed to work with their browser?

They need better hardware. Show me a robot that can button a shirt.

And if we don’t start using browsers other than Chrome we are back in the same boat.

Odd how incompetent they seem to be at doing their job. Meanwhile other political actors are having people murdered on the regular. And they aren’t just our enemies.

Is it possible to feed this paper to an AI get a more digestible summary?

Impressive work! I am surprised Smalltalk and Prolog are in there though.

They really should let it go for common communication. It’s beautiful and culturally significant, and that will never be forgotten. But it doesn’t fit well with modern writing.

Sometimes I like to imagine a world where Commodore and Atari saw the writing on the wall. Instead of competing each other to death, while the IBM PC open architecture took off, they collaborate to create a joint open architecture of their

Myth Buster did empirical tests on this and were somewhat surprised to discover that walking actually led to getting the least wet.

Who is in charge of these HTML changes? This is horrible. It’s bad enough that for the last three decades we’ve have to use the `selected` attribute, now we are going to have a `button` in `select` with a `selectedoption` tag? Please, just

Oh brother. I’m sure most of the European world has some Jewish descendants somewhere in there blood line. Hell, even Hilter did! Why is that a big deal? As if having some Jewish descendant makes everything you ever did a Jewish accomplishm

Well, duh. I don’t think it really matters. The plan is to train the robots via telepresence. If that works out, no one will care that these demos used exactly that.

Probably because Lisp requires a GC. With Forth you have to write your code to fit a finite memory footprint.

But doesn’t that affect ALL windows?

by transfire 2y ago
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could adjust resolution per window? On a 4k monitor some applications have tiny text and icons, and no way adjust that I can find.

That’s about right, but written in Lisp.
