Isn't there some kind of three-strikes approach which judges can use against repeat offenders?

They reserve that approach for drug laws that fill prisons.

The trick is to make a robot that has a Lidar and a camera, then train a model that can replace the Lidar.

(Lidar can of course also be echolocation).


The harder trick is to do it cost effectively. I picked up my Roborock for $200 and it has LiDAR. Works really well.

200$ is insane, sounds like economies of scale is really working for them

I don’t follow models and there are a ton of them. Here is an example $280 version with lidar.

Yeah this would help a lot to collect good trainable data, teleoperating the robot around and collecting large amount of good data is quite hard

I thought the trick is just to use an xbox kinect. But lidar got a lot cheaper in the recent years.

Most real projects are skyscrapers built on the foundations of a shed.

Can it render SVG with all of its features? (Does it support all modern 2D drawing primitives)

There is an Svg widget. It only supports static images, not animations, though this is certainly something I'm interested in.

It does support the modern 2D imaging model. It is in transition from using "Vello GPU" (aka Vello Classic) to the understory imaging abstraction, which means it can use any competent 2D renderer, including Skia.


But can it withstand Qualcomm's patent lawyers?

Just crank up the temperature.

We need a Moore's law for tokens, and energy.

It's pretty weird that on the one hand they don't acknowledge that propaganda actually works, yet on the other hand let ad-tech exist because "where would we be without it?"

I think it is great that these videos are teaching people not to trust random (viral) videos. We need more of these blatant lies, so people wake up everywhere.

No kidding. If you allow a population to gamble online, with prediction markets, derivatives, etc. don't be surprised if you widen the wealth gap.

More winners, but even more losers.

But hey, you only ever hear about the winners, so it's great for the image. America is doing great!


The subtitle specifically says 'the lower rungs of middle class have shrunk'? This seems a little ridiculous to just say. As trendy as it is to hate on modern day life and talk about how awful it is, in material terms it's pretty clearly better than it's ever been.

> The subtitle specifically says 'the lower rungs of middle class have shrunk'?

Yes, perhaps because they are now in the class below that?


>in material terms it's pretty clearly better than it's ever been.

On a time scale of centuries, sure. On a time scale of decades, absolutely not.
