  1. Interesting, and black magic as far as I'm concerned. How does that algorithm translate onto the Rubik's cube (which I evidently never learned to solve)?
  2. Does this export LLM.txt’s?
  3. "...Than your Phone" = pure clickbait. The article compares touchscreens to physical buttons.

    Nothing new here.

  4. We're missing a piece of middleware technology. Imagine a network like Reddit or IMDB that:

    a) offers posting under anonymity, b) allows users to associate with exactly one physical passport, c) has no knowledge of who an account belongs to, d) allows for filtering on content by passport-authenticated users.

  5. Me too – really surprised he missed the opportunity of making a six-stringed version played with the same guitar he used to build the game.
  6. Unless The People do something, it's probably going to be much more than four years. I think the administration, whoever that is, is far from brain dead, even if their puppets may be.
  7. Aidemos... the greek god... of intelligence...?
  8. Interesting! Can I hook this up to my calendar and e-mail?

  9. The company that deliberately destroys its own market hasn't been born yet. They will find ways to build customer retention.
  10. Really cool engineering feat!

    I think you're making your route to market overly complicated by calling it autonomous. Just call it what it is – a drone with a AI navigation system. As long as a person commands it and monitors it (and thus _is responsible_), there's no reason to call it autonomous.

    First video has 131 views – I hope this blows up.

  11. I know a large retailer that sells electric screw drivers for €19 a piece. I also know from the chinese manufacturer's backwaters that it's deliberately designed to last for 12 minutes. That's roughly two years in the hand of an average non-professional, who will probably go back and buy another since it was so cheap.

    These tools don't have a second-hand market. The expensive built-to-last ones do.

  12. > FTA: This same counterintuitive relationship between efficiency and outcome occurs in machine learning.

    The "examples abound, in politics, economics, health, science, and many other fields" isn't a relationship between efficiency and outcome, but rather measuring and efficiency, or measuring and outcome. I think a better analogy is Heissenberg's uncertainty principle – the more you measure the more you (negatively) affect the environment you're measuring.

  13. I'm curious – what edge cases did you find?
  14. So basically Math.round((x*20))/20?
  15. "The founders contend that moving data centers off land would slow ocean temperature rise by /.../ letting seawater cool the capsule’s shell"

    The... err... what?

  16. Nice work – radial menus are so underrated.

    A feature request is to allow the menu to ride along the cursor trajectory, effectively evolving the menu into a gesture GUI. I made an attempt at an svg implementation eight years ago: https://rawgit.com/lgrkvst/d3-sunburst-menu/master/demo/d3-s...

  17. I always thought that the idea behind antitrust laws was that if an entity reaches total market dominance and uses that dominance to keep other out of the game, the entity should be split into competing entities.

    What I'm seeing however is nothing more than toothless, political pointing sticks.

    Both IBM, Microsoft and Google have clearly at some point obtained total domination of their markets. Consequently they've all found themselves at the antitrust chopping blocks, however these companies have become so important to the economy that actual verdicts are reduced to a "carry on, just don't exert your dominance too much".

    Or have I misunderstood antitrust laws?

  18. Will "Kuberentes" become the next https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EShUeudtaFg ?
  19. There has to be more to it.

    If it’s not selected against, it wouldn’t spread at the cost of the tail gene.

    Somehow, somewhere along the genome line, non-tailers overtook tailers.

  20. That way, yes. I mean a transformation into spatial problems in much the hardware design way, e.g. the "I need to find a way to add that node without crossing any wires" way. Your example is surely elegant for Promise.all(), although it's a happy path. Can users manage rejected promises, Promise.any() or Promise.allSettled() through nodes and wiring (i.e. not through hidden configuration)?
