Don't think you should be intimidated just by reading the article itself. It is using several domain specific terms. But you would encounter that in many other contexts - for instance a group discussing an intricate board game you are seeing for the first time.

However, unlike board games where the concepts can be explained to you in a few minutes (usually it becomes clear only when you play), a lot mathematics especially algebraic geometry/number-theory can have many layers of dependencies which takes years to absorb.

It would be interesting to compare it to understanding a large open source project like the Linux kernel, well enough to contribute. I would say it is not so conceptually deep as mathematics of the article (while still having a few great ideas). But understanding the source would require familiarization with 'tedious details' which incidentally, what this article is also about.

So the issue, stated this way, is not so much raw talent as time and effort. This leads to the topic of motivation - finding something great in an idea can lead to investment in the subject. For those more talented, the journey might be easier.

Alan Kay's maxim is crucial - a change of perspective can simplify things relative to 80 extra IQ points. A long sequence of technical steps can be compressed into a single good intuitive definition/idea like the complexity of navigating a path becomes clear from a higher viewpoint.

Grothendieck, considered by many to be the best mathematician of the past century, made the point that there were several colleagues who were more proficient
at symbolic manipulation. But, he was able to look at things with a more foundational perspective and could make great contributions.

Here's a good essay by Thurston "Proof and Progress in mathematics".
https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/9404236

He discusses this problem of being intimidated by jargon.
I get your point, but it's annoying because the creator didn't specify this anywhere. If you look at a project like CodeBuff, its explained what the tool is made with.

OP didn't even check the Blender licensing, why would I respect such a barbones attempt at a project? At least be honest that it's just an interface with trellis.
Endeavors like this have failed before, but at some point (soon would be my guess) the utility of having an AI assistant with vision capability will just be too useful to resist putting an always available camera in glasses.
You may need to rename it, though, as this is not an official Blender project. [1]

Even if "Blender" wasn't an officially trademarked name (which it is, in both the US and EU), standing on the shoulders of Open Source also means respecting their rules when it comes to using a project's name to market your own creation.

(Unless you asked for, and received, permission of course. In which case that's something you'll want to mention on the landing page so folks know you did the right thing)

Exactly this. The people in power have been nakedly cutting taxes and cutting expenditures in the regulatory state. This is the obvious, foreseeable result, and we cannot let politicians pretend these things will fix themselves thru magic.
Is it going to be open like Android or closed like Google Play? They seem to be evasive about licensing

I also don't quite get why AI needs to be on the OS level (AI seems to make more sense on an app level) and what connection it has to XR. They're also very vague about what tangible OS integration they're planning. Sounds like a buzzword soup. They just forgot decentralized crytocurrencies
They already botched XR twice by killing Cardboard and Daydream. You're right, third time's gotta be the charm.

It increases the number of "VLP" channels.

6GHz has 3 modes of operation:'
1) VLP: can now happen in 1200 MHz (5925 MHz to 7125 MHz); previously it was only 850 MHz.
Very Low Power: 25 mW (14 dBm) power.. with -5 dBm/MHz PSD, indoor and outdoor usage.
Think of short range use-cases like smartphone to laptop or smartphone to earbuds/ARVR.
2) LPI: already allowed in full 1200 MHz
Low Power Indoor: 1W (30 dBm) power with 5 dBm/MHz PSD (clients are 6 dB lower); only indoor usage.
Think of your home router.
3) SP: allowed in 850 MHz; no plan to expand AFAIK
Standard Power: 4W (36 dBm) power with 23 dBm/MHz PSD (clients are 6 dB lower); indoor or outdoor usage.
Requires Aautomated Frequency Coordination; send your location to cloud, cloud tell you which channels area available.
Think of enterprise or high power routers; outdoor point to point links (WISP)

So, this new regulation is only for VLP and will result in more (especially 320 MHz) channels. No change to the most common usage of Wi-Fi (Router to Laptop/PC).

This will allow better channel availability (low latency, higher throughput) for mobile applications in very dense areas..
It’s not a crusade :) but you do start sounding like a sugar industry shill. You can’t possibly justify, in good faith, giving humans cancer as a precondition for a study that the main thing to check is if sugar accelerates it?

If you want human studies here’s one:

As I said earlier, learn to google yourself.
As long as there are machines that can run it, it won't die most probably. Especially nowadays, people love writing retro compilers for modern systems.

However once there are no machines to run it, I think it can die out. Of course that depends on the definition of language. Have no idea if the hole-arrangement on punchcards could be considered a separate programming language (or just proto-ASM or whatever). If it's a separate language however, than it did go extinct, due to the punch cards' extinction.
Show HN: Bring-your-own-key browser extension for summarizing HN posts with LLMs
Hi Hacker News,

I developed an open source browser extension for summarizing Hacker News articles with OpenAI and Anthropic LLMs. It currently supports Chrome [1] and Firefox [2] (desktop).

The extension adds the summarize buttons to the HN front page and article pages.

It is bring-your-own-key, i.e. there's no back end behind it and the usage is free, you insert your API key and pay only for tokens to your LLM provider.

You can still rent movies for a couple of bucks from Amazon, almost everything is on there... but you have to pay a few bucks _on the internet_ which somehow seems more painful than handing a credit card to a cashier at a physical rental store.
The way that the game has been played and FIDE ignoring his feedback about format makes me think that’s unlikely. Magnus has been fairly critical about the quality of play in many games and that the play has been boring. He’s also talked about the importance of making space for the next generation of talent to have something to strive for because of how dominant he still is.
I'd wish for arrows and directive lines overlayed straight at eye level at the actual turning points. Basically video game style.

In the video it's still limited to messages and map pictures in their dedicated box and makes me think the platform still won't be good enough to handle more complex overlaying.

I used a similar system when I had pretty bad RSI over a decade ago but it was a bit different - basically you would hit a keyboard shortcut and it would draw divide the screen into 4-shaded quadrants, you would type 1,2,3,4, and then it would zoom on that quadrant, and divide it up again into four quadrants. Rinse and repeat until the cursor position was at the position you wanted it.

At any point in time, you could hit escape if your mouse was at the precision level you wanted. It actually worked pretty well.
Reminds me of this: https://news.utexas.edu/2017/06/26/the-mere-presence-of-your...

But I'm not sure if that result has ever been independently replicated.
Now that the US is returning to crypto mania, who will win the bidding war for electricity, blockchain or AI?
"Llm thinks" is false advertising. (Maybe useful jargon, but still)

> Any Turing complete system can emulate any other Turing complete system, and an LLM can trivially be made to execute a Turing machine if you put a loop around it

Wouldn't it be more efficient to erase the LLM and use underlying hardware as Turing complete system?

BTW. Turing test is just admission that we have now way of defining human level intelligence apart from "you'll know it when you see it".
>It's hard to argue about 'a newer phenomenon' which is now closer to Astro Boy than our current time.

Last I checked, the 2010s are closer to now than to the 1960s. This didn't become the norm until the 2010s. I called out Death Note and Yu Yu Hakusho as notable exceptions and did note the initial start of it in smaller OVAs. I guess if you're going from the earliest OVA that did this then your comment does make sense. I was thinking more in terms of when the trend to do so became dominant.

>You can't 'faithfully recreate shot-for-shot' an ongoing title, you would be out of the material way earlier than out of the runtime.

Right. The modern trend is to wait until a series is done, or at least until it has enough plot/action in the manga to cover a full season before entering production. Chainsaw Man was over before the first season of the anime came out. Demon Slayer finished around the time the anime started. This is a new-ish trend among big popular TV anime. So as I said, it used to be that anime would be produced while the manga was still ongoing and popular, which lead to filler as a much more common phenomenon.

>This is not even diving on the differences between the manga and the manga eiga.

By all means, feel free to split hairs. I was just trying to give newcomers a more zoomed-out view of the history of anime, but if you'd like to delve into details, have at it.
For national security reasons, the fab side might be too important to fail, and the US government will continue to subsidize them in being 2 years behind TSMC. The x86 business is in a weirder place because switching to the latest TSMC node would be an immediate improvement and its problems are more tractable, but it's less strategically important (another domestic vendor with near drop-in replacements exists), and both datacenter and PC customers are seriously looking at other options.
You can look at it this way. Or, you can see it as raising the bar for new entrants. If a new programming language has sufficient merits to overcome a poor level of AI assistance, then nothing will stop it, at least in some circles.

But, if mainstream developers have become totally dependent on AI, it is going to be a high bar indeed.

It would be interesting to bake AI into compilers of any new language, so that auto-correction and education of the programmer happens every time they compile.

In general, though, I think people are too quick to surrender to AI.
I wonder how society is going to adapt to everyone literally having a camera pointed at them all the time by the people they interact with. You can say 'there are cameras everywhere' or 'cameras are on phones', but it is different when the camera is on someone's face that you are talking to. Imagine every social interaction being on video, or at least not knowing if it is. We will have to adapt to that, probably by being overly cautious about what we say and do.

Normal, regular chess engines are sometimes called AI. Or at least they were back in 1997. And people have certainly made themed variants of these chess engines, which purport to simulate certain famous chess players.

Right now you can visit https://www.chess.com/play/computer and play a Hikaru-themed chess engine - or a MrBeast-themed chess engine.

I don't know how deep the simulation goes, though - they might all just be the same engine with a different difficulty setting and a different icon.

I mean making two workspace, and iteratively walking them towards each other in the revision tree, until to you cross the revision that introduced the bug (either both instances show the bug or neither does). There isn't really a reason to have three workspaces.

Knowing how Google shuts down or forgets about products that don't make them a million billion dollars, I wouldn't invest into Google's XR ecosystem.

Meta could sink in all that money because Zuck is really into that stuff.
Dishwasher; Will contaminate each dish a predictable amount, consistently. A tiny amount on each dish that correlates to about 3% of the surface area of each dish sitting in the rack for a couple of hours. So the max contaminant is n% of [surface area of each dish] per wash cycle.

Silverware Bin; Will contaminate each utensil a predictable amount per unit of time, consistently, up until a saturation point where the utensile cannot contain any more contamination. So the max amount of contaminant is 1x[surface area of utensil].

Meat and veggies; Will be contaminated based on the amount of surface area in contact with plastic, and the amount of time time they spend in contact with plastic. So the max amount of contaminant is [surface area of food touching plastic]x[duration of exposure]. An important note, the food is usually refrigerated. Heat is what releases many of the chemicals from the plastic.

A cooking utensile will contaminate food a highly variable amount based on; The amount of surface area that touches the food, how long the utensile touches the food, the temperature of the food, the fat content of the food, the temperature of the cookware/utensile, the age and quality of the utensile, and a slew of other factors.

Additionally, we both have to deal with the three things you brought up. We all have dishwashers, and plastic bins, and plastic packaging. But you are ALSO using plastic utensils. So you invariably will have more chemicals from plastic than me, despite any other factors.
Now that free unblocking/vpn apps are a tap away I'd disagree any tech-savviness is needed - just a little motivation.

OF creators need valid ID, so they can't create a totally fictitious profile with nobody behind it.

BUT... from what I understand some agencies managing these accounts are training models with hundreds of photos of the creator and then using that to push out more photos in different outfits and locations without the creator being involved at all.
There used to be more brands with trackpoints but IMHO most were pretty bad, except for Lenovo.

That said, their newer ones also seem a bit more slippery / harder / less precise than older ones, in my (subjective) impression.
SNAFU is high on my list too, though generally I'd expect someone to have jumped in front of this by now. (That may be happening; see the responses from Congress today, which are the sort of thing that would look like.) Again, part of my analysis is the length of time this has been occurring; theories I had in the first couple of days generally involved the problem being only a couple of days old. The longer the mystery persists, the more we have to reconsider such theories.
I worked on the launches of many Android devices and actually worked on the OOBE of the GearVR, and it was by far the hairiest of them all, including the Nexus 10, where the Google execs made it to like Chicago before accepting that Hurricane Sandy wasn’t something imaginary cooked up to mess up their launch.
I'll take Google and Samsung over Meta.

Until Meta stops trying to force me to open an account to view things that should be publicly available i'll never be on board with them gaining more power. Not to mention that I believe their products are a net negative to society.
Yes my research showed that Meta can do this via partnership. And that makes me wonder do others need partnerships as well?
This is so funny and also a commentary on my inability to perform searches in github I guess.

A month ago I was looking for something like this, so I created https://github.com/fusion/gogo

Now this thread is revealing an abundance of alternate tools.

I'm considering creating a "list of fetching tools" just to help folks find the one they want, since some features described here are very interesting.
I assume it was just a joke since the one thing the authorities have been willing to say is that they are definitely not foreign drones.

It's looking like it's going to be harder and harder to find a physical DVD _player_, though. When the one you have breaks down, you may not be able to buy a replacement.
My initial thoughts:

- Some cool ideas at the OS/UXD level. Genuinely impressed the thinking behind them seems more thoughtful and innovative than what Apple did with VisionOS. (Not surprising given that Apple doesn’t understand or believe in XR from the top down.)

- Not looking forward to continued knee-capping of their products/services on other XR platforms but c’est la vie.

- I have zero faith they’ll actually invest resources in this long-term, given how they treated their previous XR efforts. As an XR dev, I doubt I will bother to build anything for their platform until I see a serious long-term investment in the space, and decent momentum / market share.
I hope there are a lot more to come. The system is so awful that I'd be in favor of pardoning pretty much anybody who seems likely not to re-offend.

But I hope he doesn't pre-pardon the Trump investigators. Or perhaps, that he makes the offer, and allows them to refuse it. If Trump is going to be vindictive and corrupt, we should all see it. They shouldn't have to be martyrs for it, but at least they'll be visible in it. There are certain to be many more who won't be as visible, and the corruption unchecked.

It is a nice theory when you look at it like that but it doesn't have to be so nefarious. First, we have a history of letting that through, leaded gas, insecticide etc but we learnt. Any research is going to suffer from the effect of wanting to confirm and publish, but I'm glad people looking at this stuff. I'd be so much more skeptical of anyone saying X is not toxic so some corporation can keep doing whatever.

Next is that any utensil manufacturers easily has the ability to change the colour and slap on that eco marketing. There is barely any financial incentive for Big White Utensil Co to go and pay scientists to slag off black plastic.

The typo is really unfortunate. But wouldn't anyone be glad to know that black plastics have more of a toxic chemical than white ones? Even if both are below a threshold, I'd like to keep my toxin consumption as low as conveniently possible, maybe nothing will happen to me either way but spatulas are like 10 bucks

Dude, if you have "extremely large datasets" then why are you acting like your advice is generally applicable. Fine, for db's with trillions of rows then you need to be extremely careful when doing migrations.

However, migrations won't be faster when you use a tool like this, they will be slower. So maybe you are fine with migrations taking weeks and weeks to complete, but in that case how many migrations are you running that your DBA's are overwhelmed by the volume of migrations to approve? Which one is true?
They don’t mean anything precise, and don’t need to. They describe a bag of behaviors with overlapping properties that we observe animals/people doing.

‘Intelligent’ is exactly as precise as ‘funny’ or ‘interesting’. It’s a label for a cluster of observations of another agent’s behavior. It entails almost nothing about how those behaviors are achieved.

This is of course only an opinion, but it’s my professional opinion after thirty five years in the AI business.
