If you are just trying to get something quick and simple that works for rendering react components then this repo is solid: https://github.com/marcomattes/epaper-components/tree/ma…

The approach in the article using dithering is in some sense more elegant and mathematically clever. But the level of visual representation from control nets/SD is really compellin…

This is an interesting piece and it is kind of an outstanding puzzle, but I feel like it was also indicative of the zeitgeist. The 60s were a more optimistic time for physics. We h…

Yes. Everyone here is. But given the rapid pace of progress the conversation should deal not simply with where things stand but where things are moving.

Yeah, that is kind of my concern here. Scaling does not show any signs of dropping off. And it would be very hard to simply put a pause on any of this right now both internationall…

At this point it seems pretty clear that we are in the midst of the Singularity right now. Noteworthy unsolved math problems are being solved at an alarming rate. Agent swarms have…

Neat. For folks who are more comfortable with using the terminal than paying for things, I have used this python libraries to make isospheres from 360 photographs: https://github.c…

This is basically just a marketing brochure for a voting machine. It is clearly aimed at a nontechnical customer (I.e open source mentioned but not linked, a NIST encryption standa…

Ok, this is kinda cool. In case you wanted to read the actual specs: https://www.hmd.com/en_in/hmd-touch-4g/specs?sku=1GE001CPG30... and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMD_Touch_4G …

This all sounds like a lot of backpedaling and “well actually” kind of stuff. “Stochastic parrot got picked up and interpreted by other people as a minimization or an insult. It wa…

Yeah. I'd agree. This is a pretty quick and easy law with very few downsides. There is also a "good house keeping" aspect to this. The habit of keeping a house clean and tidy makes…

This is a pretty nothing law when you look into it. All it does is standardize "sell by" labels to be more transparent. The extent of the ban is the explicit phrasing "Sell By" whi…

That’s a fair framing. I like the idea that the two debates could be separated. Personally I find it hard to believe that a super intelligence would not completely disempower human…

This could be true, but I think it amounts to wishful thinking. The human empowerment phase of AI is transitory and brief. Once you get into RSI and AGI the human is increasingly l…

Feel like there ought to be some Sinn Fein backed point to point connection in Belfast that leverages the Good Friday Agreement to get around this.

You can use an llm to get out of doing homework but you can also use it to ask every question you would ever wanted in a 1-1 tutoring session. The problem is kids will use it to ch…

The author’s claim that Claude is a multiplier for skill is probably true for now but it also feels like cope inspired by usability issues with Claude. The advice is all good, but …

The two points are not contradictory. And historically playing the boom and bust game has blown every player out of the game. This time could be different in so far as Chinese firm…

Just piling in to this because it needs to be stated with emphasis. Wikipedia foundation is not Wikipedia. Their donation campaigns are highly deceptive. Pennies on the dollar will…

IDK man - this is sort of true, but I think you under-estimate how quality and price scale. A Jumbo-Choco-Monaka at 7/11 is still a fantastic value at ¥160 even if you adjust for p…

Looking at the history of the memory industry the biggest risk is that a firm would over produce and go bankrupt. Maybe this time is different but so far no memory chip maker has g…

Québécois separatism is also driven by a single party with no plan for what to do with all the other groups. I also don’t think that an independent Quebec would be a good idea, but…

Yeah, total us payroll is around 15T. They are basically spending $10 per employee per year. Or 1/10000 of the total spending on wages. This is actually small in terms of political…

Assuming that this is a good faith response and not merely a bot (and I have very little reason to believe this given your history of spewing AI slop): I think this is a lot of bul…
