Are you implying soundwaves are dangerous?

Is it not a good thing that these folks could do something more productive in the private sector?

Just on your Fusion example alone: https://techcrunch.com/2025/12/31/every-fusion-startup-that-...

Wouldn't it be better if companies like these had a larger pool of PhDs to pull from?

Private sector does some things better, see Rocket Lab, Blue Origin, SpaceX, et al.

This _is_ a good thing.

I find Autobidder fascinating, they've been at this for awhile. When I saw this HN post I thought the paper may have come from Tesla themselves.

Have been sporting a 4K LG CX48 OLED since ~Sept, 2020 best monitor decision ever. I've got two HDMI out cables, 1 going to my gaming rig and the other for my Macbook where I do my work as a developer.

I haven't noticed any burn-in or dead pixels. You need to set it up for success, enable all the burn-in prevention settings the monitor provides (static image darkening, pixel shifting&cleaning). It's also a great idea to do other things such as sleeping the monitor after 1min if inactivity, no screensaver (or just black), black desktop background, hide taskbars, etc

edit: to add, i have the monitor mounted to the wall and about 1" above the height of my desk[1] - this puts the center of the screen directly at eye level

This is absolutely correct. I'm considering removing that part of my pre-prompt because it's flaky and loses context when the conversation falls out of the window.

I find myself restarting conversations a lot as they get too long.

It would be very useful to me if I could have something like a conversation context tree where I could branch off various threads in order to maintain the "main context trunk" of a conversation but on a new branch. This would allow you to have "sidebar" conversations that veer off topic.

When this happens in the ChatGPT UI I tend to scroll all the way back up to the input which steered the conversation (in a different but useful direction), I then edit that input which lobs off the off-topic branch and continues from the main context trunk.

Your point on missing IR halos is valid, but don't overlook anomalies like Tabby's Star (KIC 8462852) [0]. Its odd dimming led to theories about alien megastructures like Dyson Spheres, though dust or comets are possible explanations. Still, Tabby's Star highlights the difficulty in excluding advanced alien activities with our current tech. [1]

The near-total recyclability of batteries supports a circular economy, which should ease worries about raw material shortages

Many states are already addressing this by imposing additional fees on EVs. For example, states like California, Minnesota, Illinois, and Texas have implemented annual fees for EV owners, which are specifically designed to offset the loss in gas tax revenue and contribute to road maintenance.

In my state (MN) I'm actually paying more in annual EV fees/taxes then if I drove an ICE vehicle of comparable value

We need to start ingesting raw scientific data through these models and see what it comes up with. What could these models identify by parsing through raw JWST or Hubble data? Or training against every published scientific paper? Is anyone doing this sort of thing already?

Seems like a path to fingerprinting users for tracking purposes and a potential vector for data leaks

Geohot is working w/ AMD and essentially pleading with them to fix their driver stacks - check out his interview on Latent Space

It's kinda strange seeing some people link advancements in transformer models with stuff like cryptos and NFTs. You've gotta ask, where are these thoughts coming from? Plus, the ongoing use of the 'stochastic parrot' argument is starting to feel a bit repetitive in these discussions.

Seems shortsighted and overly limiting to me. Perhaps in this specific case it makes sense?

What's the difference?

A) Human creates artwork in the style of [insert artist here]

B) Computer creates artwork in the style of [insert artist here]

Both "trained" against existing copyrighted works except one is human. Is this to "save jobs"?

Any mirror?

The Bill https://legislation.nysenate.gov/pdf/bills/2023/S6686

gpt-4 summary:

The bill, numbered 6686, was introduced by Sen. Hoylman-Sigal and is related to social media open application programming.

The bill proposes amendments to the general business law, specifically introducing a new article 42 titled "Social Media Open Application Programming Interface Access". The article includes sections defining terms, requirements for open API access with social media for third-party development tools, API access reports, violations and remedies, and application of the law.

Key points from the bill include:

Social media platforms are required to implement and maintain a standards-based API that permits third-party applications to retrieve data at no cost, for the benefit of the user or the user's authorized representative.

The bill outlines the type of data that must be provided to users or their authorized representatives through the API. This includes personal data controlled by the social media platform, platform-produced or recommended data available to the user, and data that is generally available to all account holders about the user's friends or followers. Social media platforms must conduct routine testing, ongoing monitoring, and make all necessary updates to ensure the API functions properly.

The bill also outlines circumstances under which a social media platform may deny or discontinue a user or authorized representative's application's access to the API.

Social media companies are required to submit semiannual API access reports to the attorney general. These reports should include information on API utilization and access decisions.

I'm curious to see what comes of V2G tech and other home battery systems. I know that Panasonic[1] & Enphase[2] have their own systems rolling out. Adding these systems to new home builds makes a lot of sense to me in the interest of future-proofing.

Here's an interesting example where a new housing development in Las Vegas built all the houses with battery storage as well as solar generation for the entire neighborhood[3]

Outage seems to be limited to their website as I'm able to access my data through their native apps & extensions

Also seems a bit suspect that they had a "perfect UI/UX example" to show how they would have handled these dialogs. Is this whole thing an advertisement for HTTPie?
