  1. It might even be true this time, but there is no real mystery why many aren't inclined to invest more time figuring it out for themselves every few months. No need for the author of the original article to reach for "they are protecting their fragile egos" style of explanation.
  2. "AI coding is so much better now that any skepticism from 6 months ago is invalid" has been the refrain for the last 3 years. After the first few cycles of checking it out and realizing that it's still not meeting your quality bar, it's pretty reasonable to dismiss the AI hype crowd.
  3. Completable in a timely fashion is not a design goal of this game. Currently being playtested by professional puzzle game designers and they are over 200 hours in without completing it.
  4. Dissapointing that the paper is full of simplifying, and seemingly unreasonable, assumptions instead of simulation based on the known orbital elements of all these tracked satellites. For example, collision cross section of 200 square meters when discussing starlink even though the satellites are about 4 x 3 meters. Assuming random distribution of trajectories. I'm also unconvinced that "how fast would a collision occur if all the electronics got fried" is a useful metric, in that scenario I'm much more worried about the situation on the ground and commercial avaition...
  5. Transmitter/Reciever pair.
  6. Using two ESP32-S3 modules you can get ~6000 packets per second with CSI data. I'm using this as a cheap replacement for specialty high-G gyroscope modules, but it could see use for this type of motion detection as well.
  7. Sub 1ms latency is a big deal, currently some gamers who would otherwise want wireless devices stick to wired for the latency advantage.
  8. It sounds like the dev kit is more of a way to get devices out to devs before the full launch, I'm sure you can develop using the consumer hardware. The Adam Savage Tested video had interviews with the Valve team and it was pretty clear that "it's your computer" was a core part of the philosophy.
  9. Unfortunately not, at least outside of the Linux VM shipping in new Android versions https://wiki.fex-emu.com/index.php/FAQ#Will_FEX-Emu_.28Linux...
  10. Very hard to take this article seriously when they claim the Model Y was just released this month when it actually came out in 2020. "Tesla also debuted a long-promised, cheaper sedan called the Model Y earlier this month in a bid to increase slumping sales. The new line of sedans received criticism from some analysts over its starting prices of $39,990 and $36,990 – significantly higher than Chinese low-cost competitors." Also the claimed "Rush to buy electric vehicles" put revenue only 2% above expectations?
  11. Higher resolution displays than the Apple Vision Pro at half the price, though the compute of XR2 Gen2+ is probably weaker
  12. Yeah, pretty much all of them have long battery warranties. Tesla for example garuntees >=70% capacity for 8 years or 100k miles.
  13. The level of time and effort being so low increases the likelihood of this happening. It's the same sort of reason there's red teaming for ensuring AI doesn't help bad actors with chemical weapons, lowered barriers for bad things is a concern even if the bad things were possible before.
  14. The double whammy of conflation with bribing immigration officers and being done by Trump will be hard to get past, but evaluating the policy on it's own it seems like a net positive. Everyone who uses this must really want to be here and a million bucks to spend on food stamps or medicaid is a pure win.
  15. Blueprints can be a great learning tool, if you double click a node it will open a VS window with the actual C++ code function.
  16. Many major VPN providers claim to keep no logs, and some have had third party audits supporting that claim. Subpeonas don't do anything if the company doesn't keep logs.
  17. In the context of "Law requires age verification for social media sites" and "This is an example of the kinds of onerous regulations physical business owners have to comply with being forced on website operators", I took your comment that "Websites aren't necessarily businesses; they're speech." to mean that operating a social media website wasn't like operating a business because it's a form of speech.
  18. Sounds like we are in agreement then, the root of this was

    >A blog is speech, but I wouldn't say that deciding to operate a social media site is speech.
