No point completely reshaping Java into something that's already on the JVM anyway.
The allocator never hands out invalid addresses, but the wasm code can then try to access out of the bounds of the allocated memory (eg huge array index).

The wasm runtime and other browser code runs in the same address space but must stay out of reach of the wasm code.
1080p per eye resolution[0], not really a proper display replacement.

Works pretty well for games and media though, these are semi-popular in the Steam Deck community.

These also have zero processing and require a device to connect to, there is no positional tracking either so the display floats wherever you move your head to.

I think user-in-the-loop use cases are not uncommon for semi-supervised learning broadly speaking. In your case I'm not sure you need to conceive anything as 3-valued logic. For example:

1. There is either a tag or there is not.

2. If there is a tag, it is either a is_x tag or a is_not_x tag.

3. If there is a tag, it is either validated or it isn't.

Three valued logic has different semantics.
A propaganda war where nobody anything says can be believed about anything anyone says and the video from both sides is AI-manipulated and only 'embedded' reporting is allowed and then only from 'yellow' zones.

Rather sad, isn't it, the extent to which manipulative propaganda has become the daily fare?

Agreed about the non-selling point. I've only ever been able to get my eyes to focus on one thing at a time. So I prefer one monitor. CMD/Alt+tab works for me. If I need to have things side-by-side for some reason I use a window manager and some key combos to quickly rearrange windows. There are very few times that I wish I had another monitor.
If I were in charge I would blowup a similar dam in Ruzzia. Let the bastards know that there ill be consequences for this war crimes.

Well, my parents didn’t go with me. So no. I’m under no illusions that my children won’t do something similar though, and I’m not certain our plans will even be possible to implement without bans. It’s the old dilemma of sort of having to follow the herd. This pledge is nice and all, but like I said, I’m not on the hardliner side, and I’m not convinced being the only parents sending your child to school without a smartphone is a good idea either.

My only foray into AI is with tflite object detection.

I built a Network Video Recorder, with full GUI-only configurability, in pure Python, no containers or databases or any of those other things modern FOSS apps use to make it unnecessarily hard to set up.

I didn't actually do anything all that interesting with the AI though, the only real innovation is the algorithms I'm using to not use AI.

I only do object detection when there is motion, and I do motion detection without actually decoding anything other than the keyframes, creating a fairly convincing illusion of being able to actually detect objects in real time, without needing too much CPU.

I also have some pre-buffering in RAM, so I can capture stuff just before an object is detected, to compensate for the slower response.

Actually creating new useful models is beyond both my skill and available hardware, but I think I did pretty well at making optimal use of existing tech.

Yeah especially with bringing iOS ecosystem, it means that for (general) developers it's not interesting.

If they were demoing a shell, a code editor, etc. But if it's iOS it's just too locked down.

Developers are actually good first generation buyers. They can likely make their boss pay for.

So it's such a waste, they are excluded because iOS

I can only imagine a sci-fi scene where regular people go to the supermarket with this strapped to their heads.

Plus no matter how good its response time is, I’m sure it is not completely seamless compared to your eyes — noise cancellation alone can make you lose contact with quite a big part of reality, let alone a whole filtered view. Even in the video it was mostly used stationarily.

If you have to ask you can't afford it, as the saying goes.

You could ask who can afford a $5,000 purse or a $25,000 piece of jewelry, or a $200,000 car. Lots of people. 1.3 bn people around the world paid for iPhones, which can cost up to $1,600 retail. LVMH reported record revenues of €79.2 bn last year, selling stuff less objectively useful than a VR headset.

I bought an original Macintosh in 1984 and paid $2,500 for it, on my unexceptional programmer salary. I remember people back then asking "Who can afford $2,500 for a cute little computer that can't do anything useful?" I didn't regret buying it.

There are more than two groups who could have done this. The Wagner Group could have done it independently. Ukrainians or Russians could have done it thinking it advances their goals. Who it benefits, hurts, and who could have done it is messy.
I was involved a bit on bug bounty platforms like hackerone before, a very large percentage of the security researchers are from India. What's more fascinating is if you look them up on infosec Twitter, you see a lot of them are from these remote villages, where the security bounties are probably decent money for them.

> In reality, things are much more nuanced than that logic.

I hear this a lot, but living just a few hour drive from the conflict and sharing a border with Russia, my take is that the west is overthinking this.

This is Russian politics which spilled over to another country. You can see it in e.g. how Prigozhin is positioning himself politically.

They're trying to figure out who will lead Russia in the coming years and this invasion is used to further this goal.

Of course there are other objectives, but this is the main one.
As someone who used to have a cheap-ish 3x27" monitor setup, I can confirm neck strain on big triple monitor setups is most definitely a thing. Imagine combining this with carrying the weight a pair of technogoggles like these,and I think it could get tiresome really quickly.
The Oculus has had virtual video exactly like what was shown for a long time. Showing a VR video is not new or unique.

The innovation that apple has brought is from their holistic OS and UX design. If meta has a problem, it's that they focused heavily on full immersive experiences and let the concept of multitasking languish.

I don't personality think they focused too heavily on social at all... But I do think they failed to imagine (or at least position) their system as a proper personal computing platform.
MP3 players were bad, but everyone listened to music. Smartphones were a convergence that everyone was working on and wanted, and everyone needed a phone, but the experience was lacking. The dominant cool-kid response was not “why?” but “finally” when the iPod and then iPhone dropped.

They still have a year — perhaps there is more coming — but this does not have the feel of “finally” for VR/AR that still seems possible, and no one needs VR, yet.
If I could choose between having THC gummies on a long distance flight in economy, vs first with all this fancy VR gear... ha. No contest.
That would be an awesome feature. Especially if comments never closed, since making it there would mean that it's a topic of enduring interest.
I’m the same way, for what’s it’s worth. I’ll put it away for a month or two and then get the urge to play Beatsaber or whatever and then oddly remember “hey, this is really freaking fun.” I’ll then play it every day for a while.

It’s weird how much of a barrier just putting on a headset (and maybe moving a coffee table) is. It would help if the Quest bootup/finding the play space was faster.
I’m still unsure that they’re any sort of competition for Garmin and co yet.
The term "pagan" historically referred to individuals who practiced polytheistic religions outside of the major world religions and Hindus worship Brahman ultimately. Also the "idols" are not seen as the deity but a physical representation that helps worshiping the deity.

But I'd love to be corrected as my knowledge is very superficial.
I can see it being nice if it's like Minority Report, where you can swipe small screens away, etc. Talk and it types.

I'm not talking about the 2014 "election" that happened after the Crimea invasion.

I'm talking about before all that. The 2014 coup openly supported by US and Europe that overthrew Ukraine's pro-Russian elected President.

These things aren't propaganda, they are events that happened.

Do you honestly believe that coup was totally organic and the US had no hand in that one (just others)?

There is precedent for the US meddling in other countries and even Ukraine in 2004: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/nov/26/ukraine.usa

But maybe, just maybe, the US had no hand in these "revolutions", just the Middle East and LATAM countries.

It's sad how people still believe Russian propaganda, and these claims have been constant throughout the war:

- We didn't bomb the civilians, that was Ukraine.

- The torture chambers weren't ours, they were found in Ukraine.

- Ukraine are nazis (no comments on the Russian white supremacists in the military).

- We did not blow up Nord Stream 2, that was Ukraine (or the US).

- We did not blow up the dam, that was Ukraine.

I'm guessing from this comment that you may not know much about optics or building hardware. Both of the solutions you have proposed here are incredibly bulky today, and would not fit in that form-factor.

They have advertised that there are 3 lenses per eye, which is about enough to magnify the screens and make them have a circular profile while correcting most distortion. That's it - no mention of gimbals or anything optically crazy.
The amount of customers who really need PCIe slots are so low that the number of sales to amortize the R&D on is way lower, hence the premium.

edit: one of the PCIe cards they showed was the Avid Pro Tools HDX card which costs $5000 alone. People who need that card are the target market for a $3000 PCIe chassis.

Like a $100 bucks at most? That poor family will surely buy every member a used car’s worth of device. And no, I don’t see it a reality neither in 3-4 generations — it is fundamentally more expensive to produce than a TV/laptop/phone so if its price lowers, so does the rest.

It is not a must like a phone is, so why would they not buy a really good TV instead for a tiny fraction of the money?

And going by the history of digital devices anyhow, use-cases evolve drastically over a lifetime of a product. Let’s wait and see and perhaps experience first.
it doesn't work great, elements are comically too big on 32" 4K or just too big on 27" 4K, you need to scale it to 1080p but then it's too small. MacOS is made for 5K 27" monitors for high DPI (Retina) resolutions or non-high DPI 27" 2560x1440. The only high-DPI 4K screen that works great OOB is the 21.5" 4K Apple display.

I am not sure why you went for the new Reddit UX which is both horrible and hated instead of the more "simple" text only UI. This had also the side effect that you managed to do it worse (probably by combining a bunch of React components) and the whole thing is slow and non-responsive.
You could get a large monitor, what does the dynamic range do for you? Nobody is saying to use old equipment just why would you buy something so clearly suited for one purpose for a domain that doesn't even involve HDR content?

This is also talking about an iOS dev saying this would help test for iPads. How exactly does any of that make sense?
If your design or method is new and unique, just a write scientific paper about it. It is about the same.
In a sense this comment is still relevant, because from the grand perspective this email error could be considered a random failure on the part of the test in its full practical context. And it's not impossible it will happen again (in fact I expect it to). But it's certainly not characteristic of the test itself in theory, but is nevertheless characteristic of any such test that might involve bad IT. It's almost like test false-positive background radiation.
>only really good use case other than games

I would actually say that games are NOT a good use case for VR. Some simulation games (mainly racing and flying) are fine for VR, but if you are really into those genres you probably already have better equipment to actually simulate cockpit equipment or at very least wheel and pedals.

All other games in VR suck ass. Either they are just 3d movies with some small interactive pits in them or they are tech demos which are stretched to couple hours and called a game or they are just "jump scare the game".

My main problem is the movement. Unless you dedicate entire room(s) to VR you have to use D-pad/stick to move - which for me defeats the whole purpose of VR - or you have to use the stupid teleportation which either breaks your game by completely trivializing it or makes movement extremely frustrating.

I think we have pretty definitely already showed that gaming isn't the killer VR app. We have had affordable VR headsets on the market for years, but the industry hasn't shifted (because VR is at best a mildly amusing gimmick). We need one of those infinite mats where you can walk and run to become actually usable and drop in price low enough that headset + the mat are together affordable.
Those cruise missiles were specifically designed to destroy tough targets like this dam.

If either side knew this was going to happen (because they planned it) it would certainly easily be the difference between winning and losing this war.

I'm sorry, but the bubbled person here is you. Outside tech hubs and where rich privileged people leave, you wont see nearly as many Apple devices.

If you write for the browser, yes.

There are 30 year old programs which still compile and run today but they do not depend on SSL and fast moving programming languages which break with every release.

Software has become the roman potery of the today's world.
imo it’s years past the point there got to be a head tracked goggle emulator, for “experts”. there are occasional moments I’d want to go back just for few minutes, or finally try VRC(haven’t), and while I’m aware that first impression of VR has to be perfect, the full gear seems like an overkill for those occasions.
I wouldn't say its siloed off. Its often on popular forges like Github and Gitlab. But also on smaller ones like sourceforge, GNU Savannah, sourcehut, etc. My point being that a lot of the free software movement in India doesn't create the hot new Rust / Go app. Its more focused on smaller things or on using the existing tools
What's sad is enforcing the idea that all sides use propaganda, so therefore they're all equally believable.
Most meta discussions (beyond the basic etiquette and moderation, which were mostly worked out in the 1980s already) don't have objective answers, just subjective preferences. The solution is to keep aggressively iterating on splitting subreddits/communities/categories of users, until quality interaction is maximized. Obvious example: one category of user wants to discuss politics via memes, another category wants to discuss in long-form essays, another in threaded discussions, Canadians want to discuss Canadian politics without being flooded with US stuff, and plenty of others not at all i.e. they want any political posts off-topic and banned. The obvious way to keep all these groups maximally happy is to split into different groups.

I don’t think your list is particularly well compiled. For starters, bar your “functional” group, you’ve not grouped them by paradigms. Which has meant you’ve left out some pretty significant classifications. And several languages haven’t even been grouped correctly using your own method (or at least the lack of established terminology makes it harder to understand the grouping context behind each category, since most languages exhibit multiple traits and influences).
