What is your argument? Android is one of the most successful software projects of all time. It seems easily monetizable.

First put five people from the same company in a room with an adjustable thermostat and see what happens.

“Scientists have proven octopuses are complex, intelligent creatures who can feel a full range of emotions," These animals get a lot of hype for their intelligence lately, but sure…

If there is a 'god equation' it will almost certainly include a+b=c because we use it all the time to describe "diverse biological systems with vast implementation constraints". Th…

Sure :)

Most people cannot hold themselves (or their loved ones) accountable because we love ourselves and accept any excuse at all. This is the main appeal of personal trainers imo, to te…

There are bosons that carry charges and/or mass like the weak bosons and the gluons. There is nothing in principle about bosons that would make them incapable of building logic gat…

Possibly because being in the business of trying to turn iq edge into money, not data edge into money.

A myopic defocus screen effect. Some gradient descent may be used to approximate a difficult mathematical function, but not AI in any meaningful way.

Applying multiple svg filters on top of each other in the needed order resulted in Firefox dropping the filters completely. I filed a bug for Firefox: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/…

The Mac version is in progress.

I will submit a request for exception/deeper review to the vendor that flagged the exe. I can also offer a full refund and reversal of the sale if you can not make use of the softw…

Thank you, 1. As long as the myopia is progressing there is an opportunity to slow that and avoid complications of high myopia. While screen altering may in principle go beyond the…

If you induce myopic defocus by plus lenses you create an urge to move the screen closer, which removes the effect. We need to achieve the right defocus on the retina. Wheres with …

Most optical properties of myopic defocus can be simulated on screen. Since the processing is on the retina, screen altering can be effective. Android app is in progress.

Thank you for the kind words. Smart phones are in progress, yes. Apple will possibly not like it as it alters the look, but we will try and see.

Since last summer I learnt some about emmetropization, visual cues to myopia control and the state of consumer software business. Please let me know if you would like to discuss an…

Last summer there was an Ask HN[1] about a Nature article that said bluring the blue and green color channels on screen may be good against early myopia development. The OP wanted …

In the EU if a software is influencing diagnosis decisions of a doctor in any way it needs to be registered as a medical device software. Probably a similar regulation can be expec…

I work on such a project. It projects myopic defocus on the screen based on longitudinal chromatic aberration. The project is in pre-clinical stage. You can try it out at https://r…

How exactly is BTC not lost when it is sent to an inactive person that is possibly not alive? That money is by all probability lost, and this transaction looks at best like a weird…

I mean, currently you have to wait for a human to summarize a book, before you can read an llm rephrasing of that summary. Or you have to buy the book and pass it to the llm employ…

Most importantly due to the context length not being long enough. If the context length was long enough, it is possible that they could do it with clever training. I only trained m…

Current LLMs can not summarize books even if they are in their training set. It is only possible if the training set also includes human summaries.

Yep, heat is heat. If you manage to swap in your hardware for grandma's electric heater, you have free electricity for whatever you do. But you need to make sure that the hardware …
