Especially when you're on floppy #25 of OS/2 Warp.

The robot from I Am Mother

Is this significantly different from Dall-E2?

How much are Lightning transaction fees?

The holy grail is a cryptocurrency that can scale to billions of users while maintaining sufficient decentralization and security to be immune to state-level attack and corruption.…

The 1.5-3.5% credit card processing fee for starters. Also, you can't use a CC to send money peer-to-peer globally at near-zero cost.

Also, when comparing the deep field images I don't think it can be stressed enough the difference in exposure time between HST and JWST images (Hubble had a 10x longer exposure tim…

Was just going to say that about the purchasing power of USD.

He must be one of the few that can recognize numbers and language while dreaming. https://www.inverse.com/science/can-you-read-in-your-dreams

Perhaps if the laser light were put through adjustable optics to set the focal point at the target. That way, anything sufficiently closer or further than the target along the lase…

The safest and most effective method for storing wealth that the unbanked currently have is to bury gold jewelry somewhere. Gold holds its value better than fiat, but is not easily…

A person's Bitcoin holdings can be distributed across any number of wallets. How does the thief know (1) their mark owns Bitcoin, (2) how much Bitcoin they are stealing, and (3) wh…

You could think of where you store your wealth as a vote for the system which best represents your values, and for the system you would like to see proliferated. Your inclusion add…

Clearly, the ML algorithm had been given the goal of optimizing the happiness of the user. It had ascertained that the user was quite active on social media and had tied a signific…

How about as a means to provide financial security to the world's 1.7 billion unbanked, a means for those who live under oppressive rule to preserve wealth in the face of rampant c…

If you liked it so much, why don't you give a donation :)

Agreed, the distributed battery system does not seem practical for the Lilium design but you could get at least part way there by segmenting the central battery into parallel modul…

It certainly increases the safety factor, but should never be relied upon as the sole redundant backup system. There are situations where it will not do you any good such as hoveri…

A way around this risk is to come up with a design for which a total power loss is extremely unlikely (i.e. it would take multiple simultaneous non-correlated failures in a short s…

From a safety perspective (ignoring cost, though which is also critical for viability), I mean minimizing the number of 'Jesus bolts' in the design - single components that if they…

I ended up moving on for personal and geographic reasons, nothing to do with the tech. The tech is all there for short-haul flights with batteries as the only limiting factor for r…

I was a core engineer in a different manned eVTOL project, so have spent a lot of time thinking about this technology and watching the space. Lilium raised some eyebrows recently w…

Fix the incentives, fix the world.

Now, you're going to need to stock up on these ( https://www.digikey.ca/en/products/detail/sparkfun-electroni... ) and start re-wiring your office.

These transactions are not occurring on the bitcoin network - they are occurring on the lightning network which is a second layer on top of the base bitcoin layer. Transactions her…
