Yamli did this ~20 years ago.

Whats the investment cost?

So competing with SnowFlake?

should we just get rid of universities as well? most of what they offer is exactly what you describe "live non-interactive presentations"

I think theres value to being together in a room. Even if its perceived one-way communication.

The pinned link regarding his work and remembrances in YouTube has link rot.

Thankful I could learn a bit more about him here: https://web.archive.org/web/20220707071624/https://www.memor...

> THESE PILLS WERE the pride and joy of Dr. Benjamin Rush, one of the Founding Fathers and a signer of the Declaration of Independence.

Later, a descendent of Dr Rush would go down in infamy for a foolhardy escapade to the Titanic in a carbon-fiber submersible called Titan.

> Dr. Rush’s style of “heroic medicine” had caused his star to fall quite a bit by this time — especially after the Philadelphia yellow fever epidemic of 1793, when his patients died at a noticeably higher rate than untreated sufferers.

Seems familiar...

The problem is sometimes you don't get the right feedback to know when to stop building.

Super cool. I wonder if you could re-use a regular 2-d CMOS digital camera sensor to the same effect. But now I realize your sensor is basically 1-D and has a 95khz sampling rate. At the same rate with a 4k sensor you'd have way too much data to store and would need to throw most of it away.

I remember going to the Flea at MIT in the late 90s - (i was a mid-to-late teenager) https://w1mx.mit.edu/flea-at-mit/

Computer networking was new (to me) and I remember picking up an ethernet card for maybe $10. Plugged it in and boom, the magic of creating your own network.

It's a way around the "horrible horrible" CHIPS act.

Surprisingly, ChatGPT is fairly good at deciphering an image of this handwritten text. I snapped an old postcard from 1930s and it was able to read it.

Removing the apps was the biggest solve for me. I still maintain some social accounts, but not having the native app reduces time spent considerably.

I am addicted to YouTube Shorts. It would be fine if it wasn't the first thing you see when you open YouTube. But often, I will open the app and then completely forget what long-form video I wanted to search for because the Shorts got me. It is insidious. The youtube app even asked me once - in some sort of survey - if I enjoyed seeing Shorts first thing and I said no. Nothing changed.

Super cool.

But honest question: why is GPT-1 even a milestone? Its output was gibberish.

Anthropic hired their first AI Welfare person in late 2024.

Here's an article about a paper that came out around the same time https://www.transformernews.ai/p/ai-welfare-paper

Here's the paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2411.00986

> In this report, we argue that there is a realistic possibility that some AI systems will be conscious and/or robustly agentic in the near future.

Our work on AI is like the classic tale of Frankenstein's monster. We want AI to fit into society, however if we mistreat it, it may turn around and take revenge on us. Mary Shelley wrote Frankenstein in 1818! So the concepts behind "AI Welfare" have been around for at least 2 centuries now.

There's possibly 4 million of these guns on the street. Sig should do a massive recall.

I think we just need better AI coding tools: the space is still a blue ocean for the ones that can figure it out.

The article highlights the key problem with AI tools today - which is that there doesn't seem to be a high level planning step (aka a mental model) to start with. Every time you ask a new question, the LLM starts from scratch.

I dont think the patent in question is for software: https://patents.google.com/patent/US10912502B2/en

https://rulings.cbp.gov/ruling/H335304 maybe this - from January 2025

It appears the patent is for "User-Worn Device for Noninvasively Measuring a Physiological Parameter of a User". So Apple is simply moving the logic to a non user-worn device - like a phone - to get around the problem. (this is my quick read / conjecture)

Here is the original patent https://patents.google.com/patent/US10912502B2/en

Surprisingly, sushi is huge in Manhattan and not so much in the outer boroughs. My relative assessment from looking at the heatmap: https://www.alltext.nyc/map?q=sushi&m_lat=40.7313&m_lon=-73....

Also - a huge difference between UES and UWS, with more sushi spots on UES. Maybe its denser?

Awesome project.

My only suggestion would be to remove duplicates. Many of the items are just the same thing from different angles. Of course, this is a tough technical challenge to solve that most likely cannot rely on location alone.

Incredible tool chain required to do this. Cool stuff. The end result is awesome btw. Take a listen.

My dad had the station wagon for a while (in a Middle Eastern country). He would regularly get little notes asking if it was for sale.

A similar flow can still happen with passwords. Granted, the user may be confused if they use a password manager and the password doesn't populate.

nice work! But these arent that easy! What age group target was this for?

Reminds me of the forest inscriptions in the mountains of Lebanon which date from the time of the Roman Emperor Hadrian (~100 AD): Lebanese cedar wood was prized for shipbuilding and forests were decimated due to heavy logging. Nice to see that nature conservancy was alive and well, even 2000 years ago.

UN reports should probably pivot to video, they will get wider circulation.

Ultimately it depends on how many examples in that language showed up on stackoverflow or in public GitHub repos. Otherwise, ymmv if it's not python, c++, rust or JavaScript

What I put in my mind and what I put in my body should not be regulated in the same way. I definitely want the FDA to monitor food and drugs and prevent me from getting sick.

I appreciate the dark pattern enumeration here - but, as an American, I find it strange that the Australian Government needs to get involved with this PSA.
