Looking at the page, it seems like there's nothing other than art installations in the Showcase. https://visualprogramming.net/#Showcase Is there something about the software the predisposes it being used only for art installations? Or just the community it attracts? It "looks" capable.

It seems weird that out of all the showcases, there's not anything like normal industry projects. No games, no movies, no television shows. Lots of museum displays, AI scultures, art walls.

Take Blender instead https://www.blender.org/features/ and its almost entirely "industry production pipeline" and "award winning shorts and films". Or Maya, which is pretty much nothing other than "used in Hogwarts, used in Avengers, used in Dune." Notably, not very many art walls or digi-scultures.

Usually its a chicken and egg thing, like nobody uses it, because nobody famous has used it yet, except vvvv looks like it has plenty of users.
Thanks! We collect all the data and analyze it post-facto to see what may have caused the failure. For example, on the 5 trials you mentioned, the Realsense gave wrong depth on transparent or semi-transparent objects, and so the pointcloud generated from the robot's head camera was simply wrong.
Other CAD programs haven't solved toponaming issues, they mitigated them. You can still break a model in SW and other commonly used 3D CAD programs, it's just more difficult to do.
At some point in college (in the mid 90s) I had a Linux box and a Sun box (pre-solaris) and had them connected up using X11 over SLIP over RS232 with a null modem and gender changer. The sun workstation could be completely controlled through RS232- you could reset the machine, do stuff to the boot system, etc. IIRC the max baud I could use was 19200, or maybe 38400.
I’m not sure why the Author makes the assertion that Apple stopped making small phones. For the iPhone 12 mini and 13 which was the premium product they just didn’t sell enough to justify the model itself while social media was clamoring for this model and Apple tried two iterations .

Also the new iPhone 15 pros are lighter than the previous models and have features that justify it such as a fully functional usbc port that while it’s only USB 3 it can function with a wide verity of dongles to get Ethernet and external media recording so you can not rely only the local amount of storage on the phone.
Your personal attacks are incorrect, I’m sure you do in fact have differences in political ideology but your dog whistles calling him a far right neo ethnonationalist nazi has no place on this website as they short circuit all potential conversation regarding this article and frankly you are othering him.

Go ahead show one of his far right neo ethnonationalist nazi posts or clips ? Citing some trolls on an obscure mastodon account does not give you cover.

My favorite part of this website is open and informed discourse. I have been schooled multiple times, I have learned things, I have had my mind opened to wonderment and amazement but these dog whistles sure don’t do it.

So please proceed, what far right neo ethnonationalist nazi posts or clips would you like to cite that emanate from him? Or is this more of “I’m calling your manager” kind of comment to shut people up and other those who do not think exactly like you?
Bursty current spikes, short and fat traces, using the motherboard as a heat sink, active cooling, and allowing the temperature to rise quite a bit. If you look at thermal camera videos[0], it pretty clear where all the heat is going (although a significant part of that is coming from the voltage regulators).

On the other hand, your national electrical code is going to assume you're running that 350A cable at peak capacity 24/7, right next to other similarly-loaded cables, stuffed in an isolated wall, for very long runs - and it still has to remain at acceptable temperatures during a hot summer day.

We can call it ludicrous, I'm not going to disagree with you!

But what are you doing about it?

Being what it is right now, you can either pay and get nothing back, or pay the same and get something back.

In the absence of me having any influence to change the system, I'll choose to get some money back.
There’s a percentage of users that do care about token generation speed as they chain multiple API calls. The performance is all thanks to TensorRT-LLM, Mystic takes care of the engineering of getting a scalable endpoint out of it, i.e, not having to manage your infra.
Meh. So you're in the "Intel should take affirmative action to prevent overclocking" camp. And as mentioned the response to that is that they've tried that (on multiple occasions, using multiple techniques) and people freaked out about that too. They can't win, I guess.
Ask HN: What your best way to verify market/idea?
What is your best way, you usualy verify market and business idea?

How long does it usualy take till you have enough confirmation?

Story behind: I built my own copilot, that helps with information retrieval and online verification from scanned documents and recipients. We are working on market validation, talking to users and promotion, but i feel that tracktion is way slow. We had just 3 talks in past 10 days, but we focus only on people from target industry.

Wondering whether we should even ask random people on the street. Start cold mailing, and other strategies, just to get as much feedback as possible, then filter out relevant.

Wondering whats your practice, you usualy follo, or followed previously.

> The working world is still incredibly unfair to women.

Is it unfair to women, or just the primary care-taker? This is a real world distinction single-fathers will understand. While the answer is "both", it is important to distinguish between them.
Right. I was responding to the comment that "it must be driving Sam insane though to think he could have made it all fine if he had hung on a few more months." But the problem is, even if he had made this gamble pay off, by his very nature the man was determined to bet his freedom and net worth again and again on, at best, 51-49 bets. Because he wasn't actually a very good gambler.

1) The prescription is to rely heavily on ChatGPT. That bug had consequences and it's not clear how this isn't destined to occur again. We need to be able to opt out of behind the scenes updates. They require full regression by consumers.

LLMs, and all the add-ons to account for their inadequacies are totally fascinating and novel. But I think there's a dead end for certain expectations here and the fascination will turn into frustration.
Our dogs are also also very good at picking up other cues. Not only can we not say "walk," but the "well..." as in, "well, time to take the dogs" gets the same reaction now.

> How much revenue can nvidia realistically have 5 years from now, and at what margins? 100bn in revenue (NVIDIA grossed 25bn last year, so 4x top line growth) at 35% gross margins = 35bn.

I think you are off by a year because NVDA’s fiscal year is 1 year ahead. NVDA’s fiscal 2024 just ended (ended Dec 2023) and was announced this week.

Their latest quarter (ended Dec 2023, fiscal Q4 2024) had 22.1bn in revenue. That’s more revenue than Cisco’s full year in 2000.

Show HN: Little Fixes – a spatial forum to improve your city
I love urban planning and think the way we interact with the built environment is hugely impactful to individuals. But I also think that most people have been trained to take the built environment as a given rather than something that they have partial ownership of. By building a place to discuss their community on a hyper-local scale, I’m hoping to encourage residents to feel like they are an important piece of their city.

I thought building a sort of spatial forum, where city residents can discuss the little annoyances in their neighborhoods, might help people a) start thinking about which parts of the built environment bug them and b) realize that other people in their neighborhood probably have the same complaint. Of course, I know that local politics can turn nasty quickly, hence the name of the site: I’m hoping to keep discussion focused on potential fixes for each problem.

If you’re excited about this but your city isn’t on the list, I’m happy to add it as long as you promise to make at least one post. It’s extra helpful if you go to geojson.io and create GeoJson for a closed polygon that marks where you think the bounds for your city should be (doesn’t need to correlate with official city boundaries), but I’m happy to guess and do that part myself. Let me know here or by email if you want your city added!
Ferrari does not allow modifications of their cars. If you take it to a mod shop, they will void the warranty and you will be banned from purchasing a new Ferrari.
I mean even a small operation can grow more than one person can ever smoke in their lifetime in short order.

Windows 7 market share is barely at 3% on the internet per statcounter.com. Third place doesn't mean "popular", especially not right now.

There's quite a bit of convenience, and some concomitant security, to using emoji in passwords. Emoji are high entropy code points that are easily visually distinguishable across most language boundaries. A "short" password of just emoji is going to have way higher entropy and be way harder to brute-force/rainbow table than any equivalent "length" (by visual character count) ASCII-only password. That should go without saying. The fact that huge boost in entropy also comes with a massive benefit in how quickly a user can glance at their password and know that they typed in right/wrong often faster than they could if forced to build a line-noise password is a huge bonus. (Related to why Windows 10 experimented with Picture Passwords and a lot of Android users use some form or another of Gesture PINs.)

That said, I think the real solution is of course to eliminate passwords altogether (and yes Passkeys are our best hope right now). But saying that we have to stick to ASCII for passwords because that's a lowest common denominator for keyboards is very much like saying that we should stick only to passwords that you can T-9 on flip phones or send in an SMS or that passwords shouldn't really be longer than 8 characters just in case some Unix system needs to use the old DES-based crypt() function or that passwords shouldn't contain quote marks, semicolons, or percentage signs because those might be SQL injection attacks and you might have some PHP apps that are vulnerable to those. You are letting silly technical lowest common denominator bugs stop you from increasing security for the median/mean user.
Sorry but this sounds like they just didn't know how to write React and didn't take the time to learn it. You can write React and have 2 runtime dependencies in total - react and react-dom. Or you can go for preact and have exactly 1 runtime dependency - preact. Everything you need is there.

Time-to-interactive has never been a problem for me. My code-splitted bundles are so small they're pre-loaded quicker than the server-rendered HTML code. And builds? My apps - even big ones - build in single digit seconds (using swc or esbuild), and small ones like forms we're talking about in less than a second. The only thing that takes long time is TypeScript typechecking, I do that in a separate task in my CI while the build is long done and tests are in progress at the same time.

I'm not saying all this is super easy - obviously it's the product of using React literally since it's first public beta release. But it's also not impossible to do, and setting up a htmx and a server to run it on is IMHO similar complexity.

The biggest mistake people do - they use stuff like create-react-app with a bunch of absolutely unnecessary cruft. And then they follow some tutorials made by a dude who knows React for 2 months. Just read the React docs (except for the create-react-app part) and you're good to go.

BTW: jQuery is 85.1 kB minified and 29.7 kB gzipped. Preact (same API/dev experience as React, minimal performance impact) is 11.4 kB minified and 4.5 kB gzipped.

You're right. People who commit fraud and aren't widely known don't get house arrest pending trial, they go straight to a federal holding facility.

They don't get to access the internet or play video games all day, they get to look at 4 walls and contemplate the meaning of life.

SBF benefited from being widely known. Most people aren't that lucky.

If you want an open-source kernel, you don't have much choice.

The problem with this kind of analysis is you have to bake in a bunch of assumptions. For example the Reddit link in the sister comment assumes that the x-axis scale stays the same and arbitrarily chooses a starting date and y-axis scaling to make the lines fit. This pre-supposed all kinds of things about where we are in this boom-bust cycle that may not be true.
Why do you assume state-backed actors failed to identify him?

I would guess he is probably known with a high degree of certainty to at least one nation's intelligence but that publicizing that knowledge and the documentation of it is not in anyone's interest.
> Audiophile pro tip: Make sure to listen to lossless 24 bit/96 kHz files via a compressed Bluetooth connection or the AAC-256 analog-digital-analog reencoding adapter contraption of the Airpods Max for extra warmth and richness!

People who get that serious about listening to music usually have serious equipment (which you can get for almost the same price as the Airpods Max). It was about $500 for my Sundara and JDS Labs stack. You can go cheaper with the IEM/small DAC route. Wireless is usually a no go.
And after the UPS will inevitably fail to power on, he'll probably want to add an automatic transfer switch to the mix.
I use Spotify without issue except for one thing that really irks me:

Baked in advertisements in podcasts for which I PAY FOR. Like, I literally pay Spotify to not give me ads. And then podcasts come in and not only add in baked in ads at the beginning but also then the host of the show has to do an ad blurb every 20 minutes. Conan O'Brien I'm looking at you.
That's only client side, and you also need to "gc" it to get rid of it, or it will still be in .git/objects and can be retrieved via something like `git cat-file`.

> That 2% attracts plenty of balance-carrying people paying 29%.

Do you have data on that to share?

It feels like that should not be the case, because the higher cash-back cards usually require a higher credit score. And people with a higher credit score are unlikely to fall into the trap of carrying a balance.
Reddit may have continued or even increased an existing practice, but this phenomenon predates reddit (founded 2005) by quite a bit.
Disclaimer: I'm not one of the authors, but I work in this area.

You basically hit the nail on the head with these questions. This work is super cool, but you named a lot of the limitations with contemporary robot learning systems.

1. It's using an object classifier. It's described here (https://github.com/ok-robot/ok-robot/tree/main/ok-robot-navi...), but if I understanding it correctly basically they are using a ViT model (basically an image classification model) to do some labeling of images and projecting them onto a voxel grid. Then they are using language embeddings from CLIP to pair the language with the voxel grid. The limitations of this are that if they want this to run on the robot, they can't use the super huge versions of these models. While they could use a huge model on the cloud, that would introduce a lot of latency.

2. It almost certainly cannot identify invalid requests. There may be requests that are not covered by their language embeddings, in which case the robot would maybe do nothing. But it doesn't appear that this system has any knowledge of physics, other than the hardware limitations of the physical controller.

3. Hidden? Almost certainly wouldn't work. The voxel labeling relies on a module that labels the voxels and without visual info, it can't label them. Also, as far as I can tell, it doesn't appear to have very complex higher-order reasoning about, say, that a fork is in a drawer, which is in a kitchen, which is often in the back of a house. Partially obscured? That would be subject to the limitations of the visual classifier, so it might work. ViT is very good, but it probably depends on how obscured the object is.
Speciation is a human concept. Mutation leading to population differences is not. You can still understand mutation and how phenotypes emerge without binning these into discrete species. When a lot of biologists do a phylogeny today they might group their tree by sequence divergence.
