it's not. We were able to get rid of 6 fingered hands by getting very specific, and fine tuning models with lots of hand and finger training data. But that approach doesn't work wi…

I am a new initiate into the world of 3d printing for minis. I decided a resin printer does not suit my small apartment lifestyle, and got an Elegoo Centauri Carbon FDM printer. It…

I have not found that to be the case, the books I have read have gone into deep foundational detail to build up knowledge. Perhaps you're referring to Vol 1 & 2 of "The Art Of Prob…

I took a brief detour late last year to study "Linear Algebra: Theory, Intuition, Code", and to my surprise it stuck pretty well. The author said the pre-reqs were just "basic high…

Just self study with the (physical) books. I did also try the ebook combo for the Prealgebra book, but I found typing latex in the answers to the exercises was cumbersome. I think …

AOPS audience is gifted high school kids, so it doesn't get up to the college level. The core texts are: - Prealgebra - Intro to Algebra - Intro to Counting & Probability - Intro t…

My theory is that people who like math have a reward system that responds well to gaining an understanding on empirical concepts. I have that, and it does drive me to keep studying…

I've been doing similar for about a year. My target is to learn the math needed to make 3d games, so basically algebra, geometry, calculus and linear algebra. I started with brilli…

Math as prep for 3d game programming. I've been out of school a long time, and when I was there I didn't even get to the pre-calculus level. This year I've churned through all the …

It literally is in an account with your name on it.

I was at Charles Sturt University in 95, and have fond memories of starting up Trumpet Winsock on the computer lab's Windows machines and telnetting into a chat mud called Forest (…

Like others have said, it's more common to use an existing game engine these days, but if you want to do it yourself, the modern version that I think comes closest is Lengyel's Fou…

There should be a good opportunity for whoever can implement an LLM that listens in on chat platforms like slack and discord and constructs a wiki from it. Bonus points if it also …

I love a drink but have found it very difficult to stop after a couple. Like the author, I haven't destroyed my life, but it has caused me all number of problems. The typical high …

Where is the data sourced from? I ask because of an experience I had recently when visiting Sydney. I was using transportnsw.info while waiting at a stop at Wynyard. Eventually it …

I've been drooling over the framework laptops for a while now, can't wait until they're available in Japan.

There's a few discord communities already if you're interested in joining an established group: Hypnus server slants to deep/hypnotic same as their label, also has a private area a…

do you have any podcasts you could recommend? I'm particularly interested in music, but anything creation related would be useful.

I'm a techno producer. I have a couple of demos on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/neurojacker I also have a couple of tracks on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/49gZImS…

Is there a technical reason why the subtitle delay on the iPad build is limited to +/- 5 seconds? I don't think there is such a limitation on other platforms. Sometimes the sub tim…

The way the bill is written is disappointing because it conflates two different things together: For the purposes of this Part, a service makes content available if: (a)the content…

I love it. As someone who is putting more and more energy into making music this resonates with me strongly. I need to figure out a way to get to part time work. One piece of advic…

I commend the author on the level of detail documented in the article. It's clear that they have spent much time and effort on making an appealing stream. And yet I still don't get…

Reading the comments in this subthread made me paranoid enough to check my ios privacy settings. I've blocked access to any shifty apps like Google or Facebook, the only thing that…

I am highly skeptical of Aphantasia, as it's impossible to evaluate what someone else believes they see. I think it's much more likely that Aphantasia is people (like me) who make …
