I wouldn't be surprised if a large chunk of this order is for non-humanoids: https://bostondynamics.com/products/stretch/

The Uros people moved from land to fabricated islands on Lake Titicaca to escape Incan conquest. The Aztecs created islands to have more productive farmland. Likewise the Incas whe…

Not all, but enough to make this a viable product. There are a lot of high volume, low-sku warehouses where each product is light enough for Stretch's arm. As with any robotics pro…

In my (coworker's) experience with this sensor, they don't send a datasheet or give any specs on power, but they will replace your demo unit when you ruin your first one by trying …

You're right, I was thinking Crouton.

My main device is a cheap Acer Chromebook, and I also have a low-end Mac mini. I've done a lot of development on the Chromebook using Remote Desktop to drive the mini. If you're lo…

Waymo used "self-driving" in the article's title and twice in its first sentence, literally doubling down with that messaging.

Using structured cloning for deep copies is clever, but may or may not give you the behavior you want for SharedArrayBuffers. The copied value would be a new SAB with the same unde…

We’re an early stage startup bringing human-level intelligence to the machines that move our world. We are looking for passionate experts in robotics, computer vision, machine lear…

The wasm folks know and care about the security implications of threading.
