My Tl;dr would be a little longer - early systems used both higher (around 130 hz) which caused issues with resonance and difficulties making induction motors, and lower (around 30hz) which caused light flicker.

50-60 hz solved these issues, Westinghouse thought 60hz was better for light flicker and beat out GE who settled on the 50hz standard used by it's European affiliate that moved up from 40hz due to flicker.

This was the biggest scam I read in recent memory.

It was introduced to me as some kind of proto-lovecraftian fever dream exploring the strange faraway lands of the titular King in Yellow, and it started out like Lovecraftian stories often do - upper society gentlemen of impeccable pedigree getting tangled up in the strange and occult. But after a few stories, of having hinted of the strangeness to come, the whole occult business was dropped, and the rest of the book was bog-standard Victorian romantic short stories.

I'd say you can get as much from the Wikipedia article and the poem, as you'd from getting the book.'

If you want the experience of exploring a weird and strange realm, I'd recommend 'The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath' from the man himself.

Nvidia's recent stuff is also really cool, but more aimed at raytracing using their new CLAS extensions, rather than raster like Nanite. The main difference is that Nvidia is using SAH splits to partition the mesh, since spatial distribution of triangles is really important for ray tracing unlike raster.

AMD should also be coming out with something like this soon, maybe when RDNA4 launches. Just yesterday they released their DGF SDK, based on the paper they published a bit ago for basically the same thing as Nvidia (except Nvidia does the compression in hardware with an opaque format, rather than leaving it up to devs to implement an open format via an SDK).
yeah. Transducers are very old topic. For some reason they were not connected to a specific language like regex.

That's something I am still not sure about. I took a hundred examples and it looked more natural this way (: lower then .). But I can change it with the change of one digit in the code, literally. That's why I'm posting here. I need some real feedback.
https://exrx.net/Lists/ExList/ForeArmWt#WristFlexors

Start with the stretches and move up into the dumbbell exercises, starting with 2.5 or 5 pound dumbbells (which should only cost a few tens of dollars at most). Do it daily, 5 sets of 12-30 reps each set, whatever you can handle without intense pain. Wrist curls are the primary exercise but the other exercises on that page are also helpful since wrist muscles do tend to recruit the whole forearm.

It only took a few months for my wrists to get strong enough before I stopped, and I haven’t had any more problems in the five years since. YMMV but I have found that most muscle and joint pain short of serious injury is easily corrected with some targeted weight training. If you don’t have access to a physical therapist (specializing in sports, preferably), you can use ExRx or a (paid) app like iMuscle 2 to target specific muscle groups with increasingly intense exercises.

But yea, one big issue is that it would limit how you shoot the video as well. If the camera accidentally catches the sun or a bright surface reflection, the exposure shift could throw off the depth estimation.

I think he used the free version. GPT4o did better. It was missing 2 states. GPTo3-mini-high did it correctly in one shot.

So this is against what Gary Marcus is saying. I think his argument falls apart if he's says that we won't have AGI soon because a free model is making mistakes, but ignores that the newer and more expensive model can do what he says.

No one said AGI will be cheap in 2-3 years. They're saying it could be achieved in 2-3 years. It could be achieved but require an entire state's electricity to run it inititally.
Thanks!

I guess I'm still struggling to see how it's simpler overall.

Most of the examples on your page don't involve groups at all, e.g.:

$ echo 'catcatcat' | trre '((cat):(dog))*'
dogdogdog

That already seems a lot more complicated than just:

re.sub('cat', 'dog', 'catcatcat')

I don't need to use groups that often in regex replacements, and when I do I'm already trying to do something complicated, and it's not clear to me why the colon syntax is easier to write, easier to understand, or if it's as flexible.

Not trying to criticize the project, just genuinely trying to understand the specific strengths and limitations of the proposed syntax. E.g. what if I want to turn xyz into zYx?

Yep. HN and other echo chambers like Reddit are VERY bad at recognizing this reality. Almost no one wants to live in a super dense urban environment. When you are young, there is appeal to going to the newest bar or whatever, but that wears out very quickly, and then you spend the rest of your life wanting something away from people, away from small apartments in high rises. That means more space and single family homes. That means suburbia or rural areas.
It's seemingly not going to get any better soon, either. A new candidate for mayor of Boston has 3 main policy agendas [1]: Housing affordability, public school quality, and removing bike lanes.

Despite being farther from Cambridge (a different city than Boston, so they have a different mayor), I prioritize biking to places there to meet friends or go out to dinner. It is just a much more pleasant experience than nearly anywhere in Boston proper.

Because it's a deeply integrated part of virtualized geometry.

You could just cull an entire object, but the larger the associated geometry, the more unnecessary geometry you keep out of the viewport. This defeats a large selling point of virtualized geometry. It's not just about clustering and simplifying meshes from an extremely high detailed source, but also rendering the portions that are actually important.

That being said, this implementation is very cool as it stands. It addresses arguably the most important actual parts of virtualized geometry, I think.
I assume the rush is so these changes get made law-by-budget.

Feels a little pat though doesn't it? If racism itself is necessarily defined by irrationality then you'd think the entire course of Western civilization would have gone a little differently. Not to mention, we have some pretty dark lessons from history already that are precisely the result of excessive rationality. One could easily demonstrate the "rationality" of a given colonial project, for example.

I'm not saying we need to choose between a broader humanism or rationality necessarily, but I just think it feels a little archaic Enlightenment-era thinking to reduce it down this particular way. Or just you know, its all Spock and no Kirk!

Have done both clinical Ketamine and Psilocybin therapy.

Ketamine was very interesting. Proper completely dissociative "K-hole" experience. I feel like it helped with Anxiety, but I can't pinpoint "why" from an introspective perspective.

Psilocybin on the other hand. Was a hero dose, and I'm a changed person afterwards.

Could feel the "layers" of my identity being stripped off, almost regression to a more child-like state. Very interesting experience. Had strong synesthesia: sounds would produce colors, colors would produce tastes, fun experience.

Near the peak of the experience I had these strong recurring auditory hallucination of my mothers says all these random words from my youth, these were accompanied by strong feeling of anxiety. After a lot of post-experience integration and reflection I realized that my mothers anxiety about the world was effectively "programmed" into my brain during my upbringing. e.g. Generationally transmitted anxiety.

Therapy always talks about childhood trauma, etc, but actually experiencing it was another level, and really helped me on my journey to being a less anxious person.

Before the Psilocybin experience, I suffered from existential depression: what's the point of living if the sun is going to explode in ~x billion years. Towards the peak of the experience everything was super chaotic, I felt like I was being transported into different realities (e.g. realities with different laws of physics, or different space time geometries). This was hugely anxiety inducing and would otherwise be called a "bad trip." I felt "lost" in this sea of all different realities.

As I was coming down from the peak and started to reintegrate, I had a strong distinct sense of "coming back" to our current reality. It felt like finding a safe tropical island in a sea of chaos: e.g. our currently reality is a safe space and point of stability in a sea of chaos and uninviting realities.

I was truly, deeply, grateful to be able to return to the familiar and it made me really really deeply appreciate myself and the blessing that our reality is to us.

Post the experience I also acquired the ability to observe my emotions from a third person perspective. e.g. rather than feeling "angry" I could tag the emotion "angry" and react accordingly, almost as if I gained ring 0 access to my brain when I previously only have ring 1 access.

All-in-all probably the most profound and healing experience of my life.

1. Deeply felt and understood my anxiety was generationally passed on from my mother's anxiety,
2. Eliminated my existential depression, giving me a deep appreciation for the beauty of our reality,
3. Gave me ring 0 access to my emotions making me a much more stable, calm person.
Did you not read the article? There are quotes from Meta employees doing exactly what you claim they wouldn't do.

> This is part of an official project. They'd spin up a machine just to download the torrent, being careful to disable seeding.

From the article:

> "Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right," Nikolay Bashlykov, a Meta research engineer, wrote in an April 2023 message, adding a smiley emoji. In the same message, he expressed "concern about using Meta IP addresses 'to load through torrents pirate content.'"

You also claim they would be "careful to disable seeding" but we know they did in fact seed (and anyone who uses private trackers knows they couldn't get away with leeching for very long before being kicked off):

> Meta also allegedly modified settings "so that the smallest amount of seeding possible could occur," a Meta executive in charge of project management, Michael Clark, said in a deposition.
I didn't necessarily say public good or public progress.

There's two ways capitalism can go: it's either the ability for anyone to build and create something from nothing, or a small group of people amassing a large portion of the power and wealth.

Unfortunately, we see mostly the latter. But YC has always felt like the former to me... if capitalism is going to exist, it's wonderful that anyone can participate. And yes, YC has made billions with this strategy and it's not a charity. But that's what makes it special – they've found a way to make money by enabling and supporting hard working people.

That being said, YC does give back. They invests in and help non-profits (https://www.ycombinator.com/nonprofits/). I did contract work for their first non-profit, Watsi, and YC was incredibly active in helping them (with no hope of any profit in return).

And finally, to answer your question about actors for good: pg and jessica are brilliant people who genuinely care. As are most, if not all, of the YC partners.
In the context of a news headline the decision to use the word "mysterious" and "detected" obviously implies a different kind of significance than the inherent mystery in all things. Other comments in this thread already bring up science fiction movies and other radiation-related disasters, I don't think OP is that much out on a limb here.
When I saw this headline, I got excited about the prospect of a new innovation in the application of Regular Expressions. After reading, I was scratching my head because trre doesn't provide any new capabilities and is essentially just yet another flavor of regex. Additional complexity without a significant upside.

Trre seems like an arbitrarily different version of `sed -e /a/b/ ..`. This method of search and replace is essentially ported everywhere else, from awk to vim to IntelliJ, and has always gotten the job done adequately and feels as natural as anything else I've learned.

Am I missing something?

p.s I just realized I've been regex'ing heavily for 21 (!) years now, time flies.
> Almost no one wants to live in a super dense urban environment.

And yet that's where so many people choose to live, hence that aforementioned super density. If almost no one wanted to live there it wouldn't be dense at all. Not to mention people usually pay a premium cost for that density you think they hate.
>Maintainer of DMA wants to keep the code clean and not mixing languages[1]. And tries to avoid dangerous offers like "we will maintain it for you".[2]

The Rust bindings are not in his tree. They do not touch his code. They are effectively no different than any other subsystem or driver which uses DMA. If he tried to veto some random driver that needed DMA from using DMA for no reason other than because he didn't want to have to deal with it if he changed the API in the future, that maintainer would be told to F-off because that's not his call.

I'd say if it's proof of concept just to follow the process that Nanite does, then other optimizations are out of scope. However if it's supposed to achieve the same GOAL as Nanite, which I think is provide rich detail at reasonable frame rate then 1) add mode with full LOD to compare performance gains & visual impact 2) do low hanging fruit kind of optimizations as well to match whatever Unreal probably does as well.

> Not much fun to be had in a suburb if you're loaded and childless.

Depends on what you want to do. Most childless couples I know moved away from their younger city lives. They don’t think of being “exiled” from restaurants or whatever. They’re closer to parks, hiking, friend. They’re able to do hobbies you can’t in the city like woodworking or whatever. And as for driving - it is much easier and painless away from cities. High density without matching roads makes driving painful. But low and medium density with lots of parking makes it great - driving then just becomes a means to live a high quality life.
I switched to vertical typing. It was a challenge at first, but now I can type almost as well vertically as I can on a normal horizontal keyboard with significantly less pain in my arms and shoulders.

I already owned a Moonlander keyboard with the tripod mounts, so a little playing around with Small Rig mount and I have my vertical keyboard, affectionately known as the Type Fighter.

To get to vertical I started with desk mounts that I could adjust and progressively increased the angle of the tilt. Eventually I joined the two halves with a 300mm straight rod. But I don't have the photos of that handy.

Also in the picture, my left handed trackball (Elecom) and my Logitech MX Vertical. I alternate the mousing hand regularly. (Trackball for big movements, mouse for fine detail and gaming).

Good read, thanks for sharing! I'd love for OAuth to be augmented with agent-friendly scopes. Completely agree that it's a standard that doesn't need to be reinvented. But in how things are today, there's two broad areas where OAuth doesn't quite cut it:

1) long tail of websites that don't have APIs, so the only way for an agent to interact with them on the user's behalf is to log in more conventionally, and

2) even if a website has APIs, there may be tasks to be done that are outside the scope of the provided APIs.

Thoughts?
The very idea that LLMs are "inspired" by copyright material is so far beyond absurd I just don't know what reality you people live in. They are ingesting copyright material in order to re-use it. Yeah they remix it to add their own (incredibly annoying) tone but that's what they're doing.
I also can’t stand that when they do achieve walkability, it’s often soulless concrete covered dystopia. No trees. No art. No vibrant spaces for the public to enjoy. Just ways to herd people into stores. What happened to having a more welcoming public space?
