Meta really desperately wants to own a platform so they can avoid paying the Apple tax and the Google tax and directly plumb a vision to ads pipeline. Just imagine the dollars in f…

Why assume bad faith and bring pitch forks out? The actual scammer needs to be out - not some person who maintained it for free. Nobody paid this OSS person - only when there is a …

How much of that is compression artifacts of streaming via wifi?

It’s always a space filling curve.

I wonder if someone did a study like that 20 years after statins were released into the wild. The number of lives saved/quality of later life etc.

I wonder if there is a more productive form of it that helps learn/practice difficult technologies in a short amount of time. Say a combo of Ray tracing in a weekend, a game with r…
