Do you know the GPS location where the eruption is happening?

As a technical founder this book on negotiation was highly valuable: "Never Split the Difference: Negotiating as if Your Life Depended on It". Negotiation is a skill you need as a …

Awesome! we're using coded aperture and Compton imaging

When I loaded the website it was slowly going incrementally through different intel generations. So I thought for a second they were offering versions with older intel chips. But t…

For those wondering, will not really work over long distances (> 100 m) since fast neutrons will thermalize quickly in air and other materials. This means they scatter around appro…

Not really, depending on what method is used there are several outstanding issues: Assuming magnetic plasma confinement: - plasma stability issues: it is not really know how to mai…

Are there any good models for transfer learning with audio ?

here's some more generative (improvised?) music: https://www.youtube.com/user/ahsax (made with homemade software + sax improvising + logic pro)

One challenge there is that it liquified the ground on impact because so much energy was release.

This seems to imply that NFL players come from the middle class, and without them there will be a lack of players. But is that actually true ? The sport could just end up being wat…

I wonder if people have spent as much time listening to algorithm music as we have reading articles about them. Seems like these approaches generate a lot of press but I wonder how…
