I think a thing a lot of people are missing in the comments - which OP even mentions in the description above - is that this simulates their experience, not every experience. It's …

Realistically I have no idea of the scope required for this project and I'm armchair-project-managing... but I feel like "put the ETCS in a different part of the train" would've be…

Thankyou. And thankyou to OP. I have exactly the same situation as them, and spend a lot of time beating myself up that I can’t help him realise his never-ending torrent of creativ…

Reading your comment with the linked project in mind, I started thinking about the idea of a “glove holding a sphere” sort of control system: the glove is the substrate for the ArU…

So my question is, a) how far does this take things, and b) how far can it take things? My understanding, limited as it is, is that these work as GPU shaders, and as such modify ea…

Can anyone let me know whether the 10-terabyte number is 1024-base or 1000-base? Would it fit on the formatted capacity of a Western Digital WD101FZBX Black, for example...?

I wonder if, instead of asking ChatGPT for a diagnosis, he could've got it to prompt for further questions he could ask? My thinking is that given the nature of LLMs of connecting …

Because it's presented without any explanation to the rating system, my instinct is that some of them are rated for the traditional "cultural shock" reasons or "more offal than I'm…

I think that's absolutely true; it's easy to demonize the algorithm itself which is, when all's said and done, just dumb code with a heck of a lot of "if" statements. The problem i…

Oh, absolutely that's true; even with privacy-focused, hosted systems like Proton or FastMail there's always that tiny shadow of doubt that they're doing what they're saying they d…

Hang on, though: doesn't this essentially hand Apple a big list of which domains you communicate with and how frequently? There's also nothing stopping them reading the emails on t…

My 9yo was absolutely thrilled to find an app on iOS with a similar concept to this - I believe it's https://www.draw-your-game.com/ . He's thoroughly familiar with ScratchJr so he…

For some reason I ended up in a discussion with a friend about this; the agreement was that this wasn't a cloud simply because it's a single point of failure and it's not "someone …

It got me. I went into the /src directory so I could find out if you could actually write a reasonable image editor in javascript, and was confused to find .cpp files.

A lot of people are pointing out flaws like the difficulty in screwing it in - although the original patent includes the use of a post-hole digger as a pilot hole. Nobody has menti…

My first thought is "wasn't that called ISA?" I can't help but be wary of anything Microsoft announces that's open source. Without engaging in MS-bashing, I always wonder what thei…

My coworker just referred to it as "a liquorice sh*t" and I don't believe he could've come up with a more accurate and instantly-recognizable descriptor.

I did wonder that, the article didn't actually specify what happened to the Uber driver. Beyond the inevitable heart attack when your stupidity embeds your Honda Civic into the sid…

I'm absolutely in no way qualified to interpret results, but it seems like in Western Australia we've had a similar policy since the 1990s, where the WA Housing Authority put polic…

Screw yo' environment. I know that - at least where I live - plastic recycling is a "meh" proposition at best: some attempt will be made but chances are it's going to the landfill.…

So can I dust off my Surface RT that's effectively a paperweight?
