Is anyone making LLM-in-a-box for emergency supply kits yet? I feel that would be handy in all sorts of situations when networks are down.

Hey me too, I also have a DIY inventory system, maybe yours is more developed. But I also had the concept of items for n arbitrarily nested containers. I also track historical move…

OK right, so they're at 170 million now, maybe ~1 life saved. I see it might be a bit early to be making claims about that. Also in comparison the cases of disruption/blocking inte…

Can they just report directly how many human lives they have saved since beginning operation? (of course, within some error bars) Maybe that's too much of a statistical stretch. Bu…

Here's the repo, I've just added a demo video to the readme: https://github.com/tim-fan/hordor I was learning Django when I wrote it, today you'd probably get further quicker vibe …

I'm storing small items in numbered bags. I take a photo and have a web UI for easy searching. It also tracks which items are used frequently vs not used at all in years. Bags are …

On the other hand, insurance costs for robotaxis should be lower if they are able to drive significantly safer. Then the one I'm more interested / excited for: optimizing the fleet…

Not to be confused with Bonxai (Fast, hierarchical, sparse Voxel Grid) https://github.com/facontidavide/Bonxai Is there some connection between Voxel grids and Bonsai trees that I'…

Hey, cool to see! I'm running a similar but smaller project (5k MAU), my oldest map is central London in 1561 https://onamap.me/maps/London1561/ I got into it because I was interes…

I'm hoping for a self driving taxi + trains combo to maybe solve the problem. For one a self driving taxi fleet could take up vastly less space - you'd no longer need one car per p…

Doesn't the mechanical part need to position the optics with a fair amount of precision to get a good view? Id imagine very slight movements or misadjustments could cause issues. I…

Hi I've been thinking about the same thing, in the context of beancount / plain text accounting. https://www.reddit.com/r/plaintextaccounting/s/BKsaLrfy3A I already have thousands …

Cool! Have you looked at producing 3D reconstructions over the thrown trajectory? And/or something like a gaussian splat-based representation for viewing the whole trajectory at on…

Sounds like you're describing my carpet-color classification project! [1] Built as part of a larger carpet based localisation project [2] 1: https://nbviewer.org/github/tim-fan/car…

Any ideas on if/when (image+text)->image models will be available? Would be good to be able to iterate on images (keep this, change that etc). The use of the seed looks useful but …

For me the intuition came from Sebastian Thrun in his Ai for robotics online course. Running through everything in 1D definitely helped get the concepts before extending to multidi…

I appreciate the rigour, but it sounds like the argument is just "I did stop but you didn't see it"

> As two flat hands collide, the air between them is forced out increasingly quickly, ultimately exceeding the speed of sound. This creates an abrupt pressure change, resulting in …

Yes! New Zealand published current covid locations of interest (where infected people had been) to a github repo - I created an animation of locations over time by crawling the rep…

Or nook (rhymes with book)? At work I say nuck, but most others say nook, so I'd like to get to the bottom of this!

I believe in some conditions fat and/or protein can be used to restore glycogen via Gluconeogenesis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gluconeogenesis I remember reading that for keto d…

When I was relocating internationally, it was keeping track of the task dependency structure that stressed me out. After doing X and Y do Z. I ended up jotting down the tasks/depen…

I just give you two books that you've read and you tell me which is better. I played around with a tool for sorting through my personal photos based on that idea. It gets interesti…

I made a robot location tracking system specifically for use on the carpet at my office. The carpet was an arrangement of 4 particular colors tiled in squares, so I manually made a…

Seems like the key to consistency will be generating multiple images in a sequence simultaneously, rather than generating frames independently. Are models being developed along the…
