Thank you for saying so. We want to make this interface easier to get started with with something like an onboarding flow or the SwiftUI TipKit.

Without knowing exactly what you want to use the app for, I’ll link you to our help page with some tutorials: https://ntl.ai/reflect/support

Currently the flow to tracking is to create a form template (called a Reflection template) to track a category of metrics such as Mood. In that template you add metrics like Happiness, Fatigue, etc. Once the template is created you have a form available that you can fill out at your convenience. You can design another template like Supplements with metrics for specific dosages, for example. Your history can be visualized and those metrics can be correlated shortly after.

Every time you fill out an entry you have the option of adding notes, which can serve as a diary functionality. Those notes are searchable in your history.

Let us know any other feedback you have, we’d really like to make this as usable as possible.
I also feel like the lack of precise/physical controls is going to make gaming a non-starter. Which is really the main reason I’m excited about VR in the first place.

All pilots are "harbor pilots". Crew members who control the ship outside of port are just called crew members (captain, first mate, 2nd Officer, that kind of thing), never pilot.

Lol you're right, controlling a ship with human inputs is so hard that is was the inspiration for a Russian shipmaster to create PID control

So, you worked for RCA.. here is a question that there is no good book on, but what killed RCA, and what was it like working there?

I dont know what I think of Sarnoff - not sure I'd use evil - he was a "no niceties" fiercely competitive capitalist for sure - and how you feel about that may vary, Armstrong was also an extremely hard headed man, and thats not something that result in successful litigation - even if I am normally biased towards the underdog, he isn't always the most sympathetic underdog.
their only mistake was calling it “mail” and not “DM” which is just gen z mail
agree very much here. apple - we're missing many intuitive gestures. lets ditch the cursor paradigm eye tracking is set to work on. in the real world we have proprioception that lets us accurately interact with the environment without looking at what we're doing.
The point I was trying to make was that these things are no longer what determines success or failure. Incremental improvements are possible, but do not dominate.

Consider the fight between a company that's great at RF design, and a company that's on top on software. Which do you think will win in the market for cell phones? (This is a trick question.)

Mature technologies tend to be things that can be outsourced. So one can make some money (if not a lot) as a supplier of these things in a horizontally integrated industry.
Source separation is commonly done by applying masks to the spectrogram. Deep learning is used to train the mask masks for different instruments' parameters. As you mentioned, this is the approach we will follow in the subsequent steps.
That's very nice to hear, thank you vlw. I think there is a good argument on both sides. This is one of those areas where I will definitely be making improvements down the line with a proper settings menu for sounds, visuals, etc. Really appreciate the feedback!
Probably most of them. A structure like that not designed to bear vertical loads, not lateral ones, other than high winds.

The knee is like this too. It lets you stand, run and jump just fine, but you can knock down an opponent with a relatively mild lateral impact to the knee.

Much more of the bridge collapsed than you might think, though, far from the impact.
> I've been in crypto a long time before in 2017 I just concluded it was all speculation and green with no real world use.

Back then, you're right, it didn't have use cases. That said, the technology has advanced and the use cases do exist today. Decentralized finance is a giant one that continues to grow.
This seems to be the use case for a user communicating with a confidential computing/enclave abstraction.

I used to use calendar integrations for these kind of things. Then I realized I'd prefer to have the low priority stuff disappear until I have to deal with, so I switched to followupthen.com and have been happy with it. A nice effect is that it creates a paper trail so I know how many times I've put things off.
Did they? My entire argument is wrong if Microsoft sold excel as a tool suited for genetic research.

LOL, that figure is clearly off. That's double the population of the entire state!

Per another comment it's much closer to correct for the annual number of vehicle crossings.
Aircraft carriers are billion dollar ships, these are not. The most expensive container ship tops out at ~$250 million and the one that crashed today is more like $80-150 million. The propulsion systems on these vessels cost tens of millions. $100k wouldn't even pay for the material costs of a rudder.

I don't know enough about the cost and safety tradeoffs made in the design of these ships to comment but your numbers are orders of magnitude off from both directions.
I’m not nearly as cynical on this one, and I’m surprised about the negativity.

Small business mail sucks. It’s either Microsoft Office (feels like ancient software if you scratch too deep - some settings require remote PowerShell!), Google Workspace (do I need to say more?), or Zoho (the world’s greatest collection of 80% complete software).

Competition is a good thing.
The bridge has lasted a thousand years because nobody is driving 18-wheelers over it. It has nothing to do with the intentions of the builder.
This was the biggest thing for me, along with timestamping each page and storing them chronologically to enable linking between notes.
I'm still very curious exactly what people had in mind for this. Like, from all reports, it is a very good VR headset. But... what do people think they will use a VR headset for?

Heck, the PS5 VR headset seems to be having trouble selling, and it is very good at what it is designed for. Anyone buying the PSVR2 knows they are getting it to play games. Solo games, at that. Yes, you can do a party mode for Beat Saber and a few other games. No, it isn't much more compelling than any other "group" version of video games. It is very immersive, though.

So, what did the non-gamer community hope for from this? What is there to feed those hopes?

It depends on how comfortable you are in the "act". Well, you aren't. But it's conceivable that someone likes the customs of a different class.

Well yeah, that does suck and it's a terrible thing to do.
True, I wonder how this applies to startups?
Years ago I got a C# job based on my experience w/ Java which is not that different (plus at that point I'd just gotten off my own Annus Mirabilis where I had gotten an enormous number of broken projects out of the doghouse and/or in front of customers for a failing web agency and demonstrated that I could pick up any kind of tools and get it done.)

Personally I think hiring managers love portfolio projects: people who don't have them are always complaining that they spend 10 years coding Cold Fusion or something but can't talk about or show anything because (1) it is all proprietary and (2) they didn't really understand a lot about it.
There was a video the other week on Reddit where a cargo ship devastated a few loading cranes in a port in Turkey. Now this.

How often do cargo ships run into infrastructure? Is this just a coincidence that it happened twice in a few weeks?
The leaks Assange provided proved a great deal of willing and intentional illegal activity by the government. It exposed several instances of officials lying to congress, it exposed a spying program that is not only unconstitutional but wiretapping in that manner is itself illegal.

Nobody went to jail. The only people who go to jail for government malfeasance are the people who expose it (Manning, Snowden). That is nonsense, We can all just ignore the "rule of law" if that's how its going to be.
Webster's definition lacks the connotation of incompleteness, but otherwise you're spot on: http://www.websters1913.com/words/Palimpsest

I guess it's possible for a palimpsest's erasure to be complete to the naked eye, but for its original text to still be distinguishable outside the visible spectrum.
In mining, the bean counters would use child and forced labor if they still could.

But truck shovel routing is a version of VRP, trucks and shovels need to be matched or the approximations rise into the double digits of inefficiency.

If you look at the powder river area where they use the model they mentioned, truck shovel is for removing the spoil on top, and thus is a dynamic environment.

The actual coal is moved by conveyer belts at the mines I have been to.

VRP is nontrivial and the bean counters know this.

Note this fairly readable paper and the complexity of 2VRP vs 3VRP vs kVRP.

Hey TheRealPomax, just reading this. Super fair point about the phone number. It was only meant to be there for keeping the login convenient for mobile users through Twilio verify. Totally see your point though and I can see how this could be interpreted instead. Will be changing this to email/username instead. Really appreciate the feedback, it's incredibly helpful. Thank you.
Most software is "finished" at some point, but it just keeps going. Spotify is a great example. If they kept it as it was from like three for four years ago and just let me keep streaming, that would have been perfect. I'm fine with a subscription for a hosted service with no features being added. I don't think VCs like to see that though.

Great guide. Really surprised air cooling is enough. My single 4090 kicks out enough heat that it’s a miniature heater for my room. Also, only 512Mb RAM??
I def wish they would too! Alas.
Once the ship is under way I don't think the tugs hang around. They are just for the push away from the dock and initial turns.
I would have agreed more with this a couple of years ago when maintaining a script written in an alternative language required me to know that language.

These days I'm much more comfortable both writing and maintaining code in languages that aren't my daily driver (like Bash or jq or AppleScript or even Go) because I can get an LLM to do most of the work for me, and help me understand the bits that don't make sense to me.
That was an amazingly relevant link - thank you!

Unfortunately the machine I'm dealing with isn't on any of those pages that I saw, though I'm going to go through again looking for different keywords...

I'm afraid this might not be a common machine, due to the size of it mostly (I'm working on the smallest version, which is still 11' long and over 400lbs - probably takes up as much space as four regular cabinets, so I'd guess most hobbyists would go for those...).

Good to hear! I very much using my google account and other third parties to sign up for accounts.

Do you have any idea of how soon? Not looking for a public commitment to hang you with, just wondering if this is one of those "we're working on it now" (so days) or one of those "it's in the backlog" (months or maybe never depending on priorities).
I think the only reasonable goal would be to design the bridge to minimize damage to it, so that one damaged section doesn't bring down others.

Building a bridge to actually stop the ship is not only infeasible, but it would likely kill (more) people onboard.
Why? They already used up all their luck escaping the accident.
They support Xbox and PlayStation controllers, which are fine for 2d gaming in a floating window, but they don’t support VR controllers like the Quest or PSVR
This is really bad math, your calculation is not about bridge strength / longevity but about how many bridges we built recently.

For example, if tomorrow we decided to build a new bridge next to every old bridge, average lifespan would half.
I've never heard this before! When I started flying it was just the 2 mono jacks that you still see on planes that haven't been updated (always wondered why it wasn't just a stereo jack)

Pretty surprising to hear there's air/sound tubes rigged on to every seat on a plane.

Seems like the sound tubes ended in the 70's: https://apex.aero/articles/sound-tube-surprising-history-air...
This is cool! Some feedback:

- As others have said, "1000 tokens" doesn't mean anything to non-technical users and barely means anything to me. Just tell me how many words I can dictate!

- That serif-font LaTeX error rate table is also way too boring. People want something flashy: "Up to 7x fewer errors than macOS dictation" is cool, a comparison table is not.

- Similarly, ".05 Word Error Rate" has to go. Spell out what that means and use percentages.

- "Forgot a name, word, fact, or number? Just ask Aqua to fill it in for you." It would be nice to be able to turn this off, or at least have a clear indication when content that I did not say is inserted into my document. If I'm dictating, I don't usually want anything but the words I say on the page.

One factor that a lot of people in this discussion are missing is that buildings are primarily built to resist vertical forces, because gravity is by far the largest force any building (or bridge) ever experiences.

Having a large force strike perpendicular to gravity is just not something it's designed for at all. All it ever has to handle in the form of force from that direction is wind, and that's absolutely nothing compared to a fully laden container ship hitting it.
> I feel like they could have a sustainable model if they had a more expensive one-time purchase and every few years released a new major version that required a one-time purchase again.

And people complain about this also. If everyone is going to complain anyway, they might as well go to subscription which is best for the business.
Well you said “from MS,” so I took that as one would.

Comparing some third party provider against Apple isn’t entirely reasonable, unless they’re marketing a very similarly premium brand.
Click bait title, but there is a lot of interesting stuff here.
I made the mistake of brining an episode of 99% Invisible to an MRI. The sound quality is so bad that you barely can't make out voices. It was excruciating to listen to something I could almost understand for that time.
Just wanted to inform you that your demo video is actually unlisted and invisible to public. I hope that is not intentional.
Boeing makes and sells planes, they don't fly people.

Maersk/ZIM rent container ships from another company who makes them and drive them around.

These are completely different companies. A more correct comparison would be something like Jetblue or American Airlines.

But I seriously doubt there is the result of some kind of profit hungry CEO. However I cannot with 100% say it's not until we find more details. But I feel confident enough to avoid the tin foil hat.
Cost/benefit analyses are just a fact of life. I see your point, but without really considering the question we don't know what the proper response is. It is not obvious to me that we need to mandate backup power systems, there are an awful lot of ships entering ports around the world each day and very few bridge collapses.
Only under the "ABC" text input. Even "ABC - extended" has this shortcut wired for the "circle" diacritic (e.g. " ̊").
If you have enough way on to combat the prop walk, yes. But in a situation like backing down trying to come to a stop (at least in my boat, a 1962 Block Island 40) there's a very long "dead time" while transitioning from slowly moving forward to slowly moving in reverse where the rudder just doesn't do anything. The way I maneuver in these situations is to do all my heading corrections in forward gear, where prop wash over the rudder gives it authority. So it's a game of shots of reverse, corrections, rinse, repeat.

EDIT: also planning ahead is important, because if I do it right the prop walk in reverse can be used advantageously.

Also, with the BI-40's barn door rudder it'll slap you through the wheel if you're not careful. Almost broke my leg that way, not a lesson to forget.
Probably not, recall how sounds sound underwater, they do not sound like they do above it.

One of the most important and key points I hope Apple iterates on in an upcoming version is some type of universal undo action.

It's immensely frustrating to be watching a video in the photos app and swipe a tiny bit wrong only to lose all current progress in the video even after you swipe back. Even scrubbing controls for long videos (1+ hours) can be super finnicky and it's tough to select accurately. The traditional scrubbing method of holding while moving vertically to scrub at slower speeds doesn't seem to work either.

As a result, I'm often catching myself in frustrating situations where I'd like to just __UNDO__ whatever action I previously took was. Either jumping around a video to the previous timestamp, or undoing the close safari tab button I didn't mean to select, or any number of other things I accidentally press due to the options being just a little too close to each other.

It's just a mild annoyance, but it's something that would massively improve my experience with using the device, as someone who has spent a LOT of time in it nearly every day since release.
> during my year where I led the Google LM effort and I was one of the brain leads, you know, it became really clear why. At the time, there was a thing called the Brain Credit Marketplace. Everyone's assigned a credit. So if you have a credit, you get to buy end chips according to supply and demand. So if you want to go do a giant job, you had to convince like 19 or 20 of your colleagues not to do work

Im a big fan of //go:build exclude ... and having separate CLI scripts in a project where I can.

Candidly I think that it's much easier to do this in go (or rust), rather than say python/ruby/node as I can use complied binaries without needing a run time.
