It seems to be a nice, handmade, thoughtful collection. Things like being able to flip the images is a nice touch. However, name "animated" will only lead to disappointment for peo…

Nice UI. Pretty cool to see a CAD program in the browser, without even an annoying login to try screen. On the other hands it seems to be pretty choppy and I was visual artifacts a…

>he's a real Dr. Careful, he is also a believer in Ayurveda[1]. Which basically basically categorizes people into different elements like fire and water and then tries to change th…

Nice, I tried looking for something like this but never found anything. Glad to see someone working on it.

It's a question of magnitude. Do you think that over-regulation of specific technologies is possible? If the price of building stairs was growing each year in only the west to the …

It depends on what you consider the goal to be. If the goal is bring a hamburger and person to the same location. It doesn't really matter which is in the car.

It's just ease of use. I tried to make a mastodon account early into the xitter takeover. I spent probably half an hour trying to make a account before I decided if it was gonna ta…

Being able to compile to different hardware including GPUs and TPUs seems to be one of the core goals of Mojo based off what Chris Lattner was saying in his Lex Friendman interview…

"Cameras are a tool of captial to fuck over human portrait artists" It's funny that these people use the langauge of communism, but apparently see artwork as purley an economic act…

Seems that we are assuming that net number of refugees is greater because of US action. I have no idea how this calculus is done though.

Well, yeah. Now they are. Obama was begging the EU to take this seriously back in 2014. "Our people and our homeland face no direct threat from the invasion of Crimea. Our own bord…

I wonder if a langauge could be built from the ground up with LLMs in mind. Are there any language design decisions that would lead to better LLM code?

The sound of the synth was so much louder than his voice that the video gave me a low grade headache.

Really? Granted LLMs might be a little weaker in physics than other areas. If someone figures out get LLMs to use a mathmatica API, and train it some more I can imagine some rapid …

looooool

I'm sure there will always be music made with varying levels technology. Seems like it will always be the case that any technology past that made in one's childhood will be the cut…

Math isn't choosing which axioms to use, is finding the consequences of a given set.

I have definitely seen some bad science promoted for trans rights. But I don't really think "science" tells us what a women is, that's a social issue.

God I hope this is the way. I think this is happening to some degree, but malls also seem to have grown into the niche of selling veblen goods. I swear half of the floorspace seems…

Wait what? I have seen multiple stories of the police showing up to people's house and fining them for tweets in the UK? https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-sussex-60260292 Also it…

Modern humans in the developed world have access to insane quantities of calories. Too bad that evolution is still scared of us starving to death so we store the calories as fat. I…

Probably the best developer for games that involve programming. In my experience their games are always surprisingly polished for how niche they are.
