    bipedal murderbots... not yet... I think advanced exoskeletons will be there first. They are already testing basic ones in the field: https://www.businessinsider.com/ukraine-exoske…

    Hydrophonic farming at home. You can play with sensors (acidity, humidity etc), LED lighting (frequencies, intensity, etc), vision processing (maybe throw in some AI buzzword here)…

    Terrible time management from Ding Liren in the most critical game of the match, leading to a very simple blunder. Painful to witness.

    Isn't this a strange way to put Toyota to be "closer" to Tesla by "enterprise value"? I mean, if toyota had 1T USD debt, it's enterprise value would have been 1.25T, and it would h…

    It is interesting to note that just 5 companies dominated the order book: (1223 total) * 500 to Indigo (India) * 250 to Air India. * 220 to Turkish Airlines * 153 to EasyJet * 100 …

    What's fascinating about airplane design for me is not the huge technical complexity, but rather, the way it is designed such that a lot of its subsystems are serviceable by techni…

    That's an incredible level of integration; having so many ADC's and DAC's with 20Gbps sampling rate all in a single package.

    It just had to be non-symmetrical on the Z-axis, that's all. Like an HDMI connector.

    Given sufficient road width, takeoff/landing length, and road "quality" (smoothness, etc), why wouldn't an aircraft be able to takeoff from and land on to a highway? I mean, what i…

    At this point, it feels like chipmakers are just eager to find yet another excuse to slow down production. This plant closure appears to have been in the works for several years so…
