The former U.S. that was once the freest place on earth.

Huh? https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/windows-instal... Also, WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) has been baked into Windows for a long time and makes it very easy to play with Linux, as does usin

I suggest considering a different domain name before this gets too popular. Rightmove might call it trademark violation for the name being too close, if they get annoyed at the competition.

I encourage you to turn this into a real sellable product.

The most evil (yes) thing about the rejection is that the same stupid wrong misinformation about the app continued to be rubber-stamped as it propagated forward in what should be increasing levels of actual scrutiny and attention. They are

I tend to assume that the obvious gridded point pattern is a sky sampling artifact - but it would be far more interesting if it's a real thing.

Would have been far more interesting to have an iPhone adapter, another very common device but with a worthwhile image sensor better justifying time on a massive telescope.

Annoyingly, the new ChatGPT app which folds in Codex, no longer recognizes Shift-Tab to toggle plan mode. Irritatingly you have to enter /plan. OpenAI, fix this!

Yes, mental typo. 256KB.

Oops! 256KB, not 256MB. Sorry about that. It was on a dedicated image capture board plugged into the PC.

I had to use it to do image processing on a 256MB image buffer back in the 1980s in assembly language. It was absolutely hideous. Give me a flat 32 bit memory address space any day (e.g. MC68000 around the same time.)

The notebooks should be scanned in color high resolution and then made available online. No need for close proximity after that.

Those criticizing those earning billions of dollars think of money as some anonymous fixed pie that magically belongs to everyone. On that completely false view of production (and money), of course it would be offensive for people to grab

$275 to restore a long-held childhood dream is cheap, I hope your husband wouldn't complain about that.

"... new policies like universal basic income." Is the engine honest enough to reality to demonstrate failure?

The analogy I make is between airplanes and birds. Birds are alive, are conscious, flap their wings, and fly. Planes are not alive, are not conscious, do not flap their wings - and fly. Similarly, current AIs are not alive, are not consciou

Looks like Flux.ai got some publicity out of this. Maybe not the kind they wanted - after reading this thread, I'll sure never give them a dime.

It feels hard to be excited by a DGX Spark stuffed into a laptop. It's still slow RAM (much slower than a Mac) and arbitrarily limited to 128GB. Can't they at least offer a higher end model with faster RAM and more of it? Sure it

I hope somebody follows up to ensure that the kid isn't being punished for a completely unpredictable event involving a commercial device.

I think the irony is that the perception of being called a tool as an insult, is exactly your meaning of it.

Doh.

It's mind boggling that they didn't digitize every last scrap of paper around the project years ago, for starters.

Really glad to see someone asking this question. After building a fairly significant AI tool using Python tools, I really wish AI/ML tools would all be rewritten to use an actually performant language - say, Rust - without transitive d

Well, when there's a software created accident, possibly horrendous, I'm sure Tesla will be relieved that it's one case where they can point to it being a completely unauthorized system for which they reject responsibility.

Where does it get the realtime data for this?

Because of almost certainly fraudulent science. See https://www.science.org/content/article/potential-fabricatio... . Research was misled for decades down the path of assuming that Amyloid plaques are causative of
