I'm really enjoying https://handy.computer/ Runs local and has several models that should support Polish, though I can not personally validate this.

As followup to this... I tried half a dozen air mice, and they were all awful. The TV-remote style mice all send pre-defined keyboard presses that can not be modified or intercepted. That's why I went with the single-hand game controll

A few months ago I put together a library that lets you use a Nintendo Switch JoyCon 1 (the JoyCon 2s can't connect to bluetooth) or a Playstation VR controller to a Mac in order to control the mouse, use a radial menu, etc: https:&#x

Are there good texture generators that export in KTX2? I use iliad.ai mainly, but for PNGs.

We managed to successfully pass lighting regulations in Pittsburgh last year [0] which will result in about 40k city lights being replaced with much more dark-sky-friendly hardware. My mother [1], an astronomer at CMU, has been very involve

Agreed - only Apple standalone trackpads are really worth using as far as I can tell. If you happen to like the ThinkPad TrackPoint mouse nub, these keyboards work great for that type of setup: https://www.lenovo.com/us&#x2F

Luckily I've managed to associate it with more of a "deep focus" state, but a lot of people seem to feel like they'd get tired and fall asleep if they used a setup like this. I actually think the biggest downside to the

Yes, keyboard just above the knees. It's similar to the angle you'd get if you were slouching and your forearms were resting on the desk. Generally quite comfortable. I think raising my hands up higher (90 degrees as you say) woul

I've had a setup like this for years, but it's much simpler: monitor arm [1], ultrawide display [2], keyboard + trackpad lap tray [3], any couch. Been through many iterations and like this gear, but you can do it for cheap just as

A few they mention are production systems at fairly high volume. The floor scrubbers from Brain Corp and shelf scanners from Bossa Nova are running in hundreds of Walmart stores, and the delivery robots from Starship are running in dozens o

The call center example is actually more relevant than you might imagine. The jobs often look very similar to remote tech support in practice. In fact, some companies running call centers have begun offering remote support to autonomous sys

I'd be interested in how you'd propose to make that work when operators may be jumping in to a robot anywhere on the planet from one minute to the next. Require logging and reporting on when remote labor was used to support the ta

It's important to keep in mind that teleoperation is always paired with an (initially quite immature) autonomy system. Just as blakesterz called out in the sibling comment, the strategy here is to start with high volume of teleoperatio

Our company [1] works with a large number of autonomous robotics companies of varying scales, tasks, and morphologies. Teleoperation is a regular part of the workflow for many. It is an exceptionally good time to be building specialized har

Wouldn't this require the Ethereum community adopting a modification to allow paying for gas with ERC20 tokens, and thus purposefully making ether worthless? If they were to do that, how would platform development be incentivized? Soun

Tires affect a vehicle's performance more than any other component. It's worth buying good ones. A shame more people don't put the thought and money in.
