My name is Naren Keshav. I’ve built a product & built the legal structure for the company. It is a Canadian Incorporated startup. The product is iOS application with potential for scale & ride the next s-curve. On the face value, it is an augmented reality product.

## About me

I’m passionate in what I do. With Master’s in Computer Video Games, I’ve worked in domains that would use three-dimensional geometry such AR, VR, Intel RealSense etc.

| More about me | https://narenkeshav.com/about |

Moving forward, the company would need a two-pronged approach. The company requires a technical & business-oriented team.

### Business oriented

Person who is passionate with a new product introduction & figure GTM strategy with the understanding of technical roadmap of the product.

### Technical oriented

The product uses live sensors, camera & GPS to provide the value. Currently, it is built on top of Unity game engine. Person who is passionate with machine learning on mobile is preferred.

### Investment

So far, I have deferred investment to have a solid product, product messaging & a team. Once the initial team is in place, with the team - we will have to build a roadmap & subsequently a pitch deck. I have built channel(s) to have us introduced to VC’s.

### Finally

I am also looking for people who might be interested in working on this product & in-turn with the company. This is a startup & I find responsible to set a direction. It does not mean that I am right. The team always wins. I would love to find a mentor/advisor with B2C experience.
If you know anyone who might be interested, please share my email address nkeshav@mani.team

Would the Walabot fit the bill for you? I bought one when it first came out and seemed pretty good. I haven't messed with it in a couple years though.

This seems like a pretty good review:

Is this real or a bit of an eating disorder? There's something to be careful of when you're trying to be healthy is if your ideas of what's "healthy" don't start being a psychological problem.

>The less I eat carbs though, the more I am grossed out by them. Like if I have rice or a piece of bread now, it tastes like sugar, and I can feel it go into my body.

Having been around people with eating disorders, this is exactly the kind of thing that they say when they're having problems.

I'm not diagnosing you or trying to make you panic, just a word of caution.
Don't forget that Ashely Williams, one of Rust's Core team members, is cartoonishly sexist and racist: https://archive.md/VEtHu

The Rust reddit moderation team actively removes any and all "negative" comments about her.
This is likely because some replies include the username as text inside of the tweet, you run across it with tweets that are old enough if any of the conversation participants did a nick change. This also means that if an account is deleted or renamed and then later someone claims the old name, it will look like the tweet was replying to them when it was really in reply to someone else.

I think for modern tweets the reply-to is stored in a different way so that it doesn't count against the length limit and is only shown in the replying-to bits of the UI, but I'm not sure precisely how it works.
I've been reached out via LinkedIn for several job opportunities related to the organization I'm working with. A couple of these turned out to generate great value and revenue for both orgs.

I understand though that in most cases and most of the time LI is closer to your experience.
GPT-3 does a lot of this very well, albeit expensively.

Sample scenario: A woman discovers her husband's infidelity and struggles to hide her anger when he asks for a stack of pancakes.

Output:

She said, "It can't be done. We're out of flour and eggs."
He asked, "No powdered eggs?"
She said, "We're out of everything."
He said, "I was hoping you might have some pancake mix in the pantry."
She replied, "It's so dark in there, I couldn't see anything if I tried. Why don't you go to the store?"
He said, "In this weather? It's snowing like crazy outside."
She said, "Weren't you up half the night playing cards with your friends? And staying up half the night is what got us into this mess in the first place."

Anyway, love to chat on this kind of thing. Email is on my profile.

I suppose async communication with another person makes sense.
It's sad but most facilities are like this. If you want your elderly parents to have assistance, either move them in with you or hire private help and verify that they are doing what you want. Nursing homes and care facilities mainly exist to drain the assets of the elderly and then get them on medicaid until they die.
Its impressive that it's reliable.

It's worrying that your uptime indicates you don't patch frequently.
Yeah...no. This is some tinfoil hat shit and completely not representative of consensus reality.
I'll bite. Say I'm a Musk fanboy... I can assure you that all Elon fanboys I know are fully aware who Gwynne Shotwell is. Now, your turn: please explain how the following SpaceX accomplishments are thanks to Gwynne Shotwell (other that the hand-wavy "well if she didn't get the contracts none of this would be possible"):

- Merlin engine

- Vertical landing

- Raptor engine

... or, what exactly is the "much of what's been accomplished" that you talk about? Look, I'm not trying to minimize her role, she was clearly a great COO for SpaceX, but it seems weird to me that you try to minimize Musk's importance while at the same time picking one other singular person to highlight. I could understand the argument that "it's a team effort, no one person did this alone"; but if we're picking only one person to assign credits, then surely, _surely_ Musk is that one person, right? I understand the skepticism that he really does engineering & design, so here is supporting evidence: https://www.reddit.com/r/SpaceXLounge/comments/k1e0ta/eviden...

It's fair to the extent that you're required to rely on 3rd-party products to get something done. If WordPress-the-Technology uses WordPress-the-Ecosystem as a main selling point, then its their choice to bundle their reputations together.

These are unguided rockets used as terror weapons against civilian targets. They're not very accurate in the first place, so even if a defense system deflects a rocket slightly it can still land in a populated area. I suspect what they're actually trying to do is cause enough airframe damage to make the rocket break up in flight.
Are there games that take multiple Mbps to play? I thought they usually took 10s of Kbps or less, and latency was the metric to watch.
If their experiment are zo good, why are the recommendations so bad that I had to turn off the feature that adds items to My List?

Several series I’ve enjoyed watching several years ago now appear on Netflix. Too late for me on Netflix, but as I liked them I rate them with thumbs up, hoping that Netflix would give me better recommendations. Instead of recommending other movies or series, to my dismay Netflix starts recommending the series I’ve already watched elsewhere. As I can only rate a series I’ve watched, why on earth does Netflix recommend something I’ve already watched?

The diversification of Netflix is great, but most of it is too little or too late for my taste. Still better than Disney or Apple TV+ where I could find 1 or 2 shows of my liking. Looking forward to a couple of months of HBO Max once it is available in my region. HBO Europe made some award winning documentaries and I’m hoping to find more that I haven’t watched.

Luckily for me there is an alternative for the streaming platform as for the past several decades every week my local TV stations have 1 or 2 great movies and maybe a new serie, selected not by experiments but by real people of flesh and blod.
This seems like a tech-community-only opinion to me, the same thinking that is currently killing Magic Leap. If you want to build a mass-market AR headset, you should have one priority: make it look like glasses. People like eye contact. People don’t like looking like alien telemetry pods are eating their eyeballs. Once you have that, then you can worry about things like resolution, fov, and color reproduction. The only companies I’ve seen understand this are Snap and Amazon, with the caveat that they forgot to make the glasses do anything useful.

I suspect this is why Apple is having such a hard time with their headsets. Above all else, Apple doesn’t release products that are dorky.
Modifying consciousness with substances is fun and something humans have enjoyed since prehistoric times (and probably some animals do too). You don't have to do it or owe it to the universe or anybody else to take part, but please don't go around wishing that people only have fun in ways that you like to have fun.

Drinking can be a crutch for some people, a disease for others, but there's plenty more space for other things that it is, and maybe just let people be and don't wish people acted differently.

Elon claims that the radar was the primary source of phantom braking. He said that matching up a high fidelity sensor (the cameras) with a lower fidelity sensor (the radar) was proving near impossible. I also suspect the supply chain pains massively factored into his decision to remove the radar from all vehicles since roughly late January of last year.
Do they even offer VPS storage in units smaller than a GB these days? No one cares about a 20MB binary.
Not if the shift implies a change to procreation fan-out. That's how a paperclip maximiser would talk an Asimov robot into killing children.
Well, they have a giant pile of cash. Their goal is to buy those startups.
I'm fairly sure they don't use Google at all for the transit routing which is their secret sauce. They just overlay their transit routing data over the top of plain Google Maps. Google is pretty horrible with certain routing. For example transferring to following train at a designated transfer station is something Google struggles with. There is a station in my home city designated as a transfer station with timed connections where Google maps will tell you not to transfer to a train 5 minutes later and actually suggests you wait 15/25/35mins for the following train) whereas other transit apps seem to handle this fine (e.g. it can infer that Train 1 is timed to stop at the station 5 minutes before Train 2 at the same station in order for people to transfer and therefore this transfer is suggested to the user as the most optimal route).
It kind of just seems like this person doesn't have positive experiences when drinking, that's a good reason to stop.
I consider high-density housing to be a separate conversation. I entirely agree that high-density housing should be encouraged and would largely solve this issue (assuming apartments can't rent out as AirBNBs like they do so frequently now). However, I don't want "we need more supply" to justify building more housing when we have enough developed land as-is to build high-density housing with ease.

Sure they have, no doubt, especially the Nazis, but aside from these extremes, most conservative movements (without necessarily being fascist, because it's a fairly specific ideology) tend no more towards weird and completely irrational conspiracy beliefs than do many new age hippie types with strong left-leaning tendencies. Did the whole bunch of you completely miss finding out about the late 60s to early 70s? It was full of cult movements, insane conspiracy beliefs and rigidly unreal dogmas that had a strong leftist or even marxist flavor. Having ideologically tendency shouldn't leave one blind to entire historical tendencies.

It's mind boggling to me that Google is still losing money on GCP. It's been years. And AWS and Azure are minting money. Any reason why?

Does it really matter? If there's no Elon, there's no SpaceX. And I say this as someone that doesn't buy into the founder cult.
Many on the progressive or even classic left are indeed strongly anti Semitic due to their support for Palestine and the Arabs against Israel. Much of this is based in very valid arguments against Isreali government policies, but it can easily veer into the downright visceral against jews in that region. It's not just a fascist idea.
Does it still crash when going over a bridge? It did this quite often for me.
This isn't WiFi. A starlink terminal is complex. It isn't something you can cobble together with readily available parts.

For that matter, it's amazing to me what WiFi can do, and yet you can buy a WiFi device for a couple of dollars!

> The cost of administering that $600 monthly award is way above $zero.
It takes entire agencies scores of hours to receive, verify, investigate and cure deficient applications, handle appeals, and execute wage garnishment orders due to their own overpayment/accounting errors -- not to mention approvals.

Sure-- not sure if you're agreeing with me or arguing? It is more costly to give aid with strings attached and complicated qualification requirements, and it is worth less to the recipients.

[Not to mention the costs that this bureaucracy imposes on the recipients. Time that they spend jumping through hoops in a bureaucracy is time and attention they can't spend on bettering their situation].
> Netflix abandoned the ‘large catalog’ strategy for a ‘right for you, personalized catalog’ strategy.

The "right for [me]" catalog seems to contain a lot of "get the viewer hooked on the first two seasons of a show; don't catalog the latter seasons".
Not really. The rhetoric you get from a lot of people is "X is bad for me, X is therefor bad for everyone, everyone should stop, I don't understand why they don't" sometimes explicitly, sometimes with subtext.

People are really quite unprepared for diversity in responses. Alcohol is terrible for some people, wonderful for others, somewhere in between for most.

> Cars really don’t need to identify what something is just it’s location and movement which is a vastly easier problem. A trash can rolling down the street can be treated just like an oil drum doing the same thing etc.

You’d think that, until you encounter something like a turn restriction sign with a bizarre conditional restriction that it’s never seen before. At which point the car needs to OCR the text, parse the semantic meaning, and apply to the scene.
I don't have a quant/algo trading background. My only experience in this area is from several years ago when I dabbled with QuantConnect (IIRC, at that time they didn't have option price history).

However, I have always wondered if one could use stock price history and option price history to do the following:

1. Select an underlying asset (or small set of underlying assets) to focus on

2. Select a simple strategy over the underlying asset such as BUY CALL + BUY PUT at the same price, same expiry date, holding the position until a threshold gain is attained and then liquidating the position.

Of course, you would lose the cost of the CALL + PUT if the position expires without hitting the threshold gain. But part of the algorithm's parameter choice would be to determine the threshold gain% for a specific underlying asset and selecting an underlying asset with a very high probability of exceeding the threshold gain% and thereby a very high probability of positive return on investment.

Arguably, one could train a neural network to do Threshold gain% estimation for an asset based on asset price history and option price history and automate the order placements (both for buy and sell).

For the end-user, the only input they would provide is the investment amount and a target ROI and the system could show a preview of all orders using this strategy that would meet their criteria and execute them at a click of a button (and where permitted, execute them automatically).
Don't you think at least some of the FTTH rollouts are because the ISP realizes they've got to upgrade or lose business to Starlink?

I was very close to buying a Miata of the same year, and test drove a couple. But the Fiat sold me. They look almost identical inside, but the driving experience is actually quite different. The Fiat is a little heavier and doesn't feel as squirrely while the Miata is a touch too light and doesn't hold the road as well. Mostly though, the difference is between the 1.4L turbo and the 2L naturally aspirated in the Miata. The Mazda has pretty much straight line torque from low RPMs. The Fiat is comparatively very weak at low RPM and takes more accuracy and skill to hold it at peak performance... but it's a monster when the boost kicks in. The Fiat also has more soundproofing so it's possible to actually hear music... sometimes. Finally, I think just because Fiats are virtually unknown in America, the price tag on a comparable model / miles was about $3k less for the Fiat.
Brave search is crap. It feels like DDG when it first launched. I want to like it, but the index it uses is old. I often get links that don't work.
Except Tesla isn’t inferring a 3D map from stereo vision either, at least not outside of the front facing cameras - they’re using monocular depth prediction.

Yes! Same thing happened to me too. Joined a non-faang company recently and recruiter messages dropped to almost nil. Pretty sure its because I started a new job.
Note: this seems to be about their paid "Workspaces" offering. I have a private paid domain email on Google Workspaces. I received their email and checked out their FAQs to see how it would affect me in terms of privacy.

Workspaces data is inherently said to be private under contract and not used for advertising or other Google purposes. Here are relevant snippets from their new FAQ:

- "Google never uses your data in Google Workspace core services for advertising."

- "Google Workspace search history includes search activity in Google Workspace services such as Gmail and Drive and is subject to the data protections that Google Workspace provides for users’ data."

Seems to me that other non-core services are not covered by it, which may be the reason for this split?
The trouble with translating existing C code, for example, a .h file, is the .h file vendor changes it. Then you've got to figure out what changed, and fold in the differences to the translated file.

It sounds easy enough in theory, but in practice, it's a nightmare. For example, you have no clue if the enum values changed, or the api's acquired an extra argument. Being C, the linker won't give you a clue, either.

This problem simply vanishes when your XLang compiler can actually compile C files.

Meta just seems like a gimmick to me. Personally I can't really imagine VR being more useful than a usual PC. I enjoy seeing the real world and wouldn't want to be trapped in a headset for extended periods of time.

The only thing I would consider using it for is games, and even then it seems less attractive to me than traditional gaming.
