Sorry about the writing :( We have beaten it but only for an output that's approximately "green smoothie". We're already better than just LED grow lights for e.g. lettuce, though, from how I recall the linked paper. Unsu

You can just render to the 1bpp text/4bpp images monochrome 300dpi target; perhaps some tone mapping due to the limited contrast ratio of the eink vs. your OLED should be done at rasterization time. Then just map the resulting 16 brigh

The big thing that was learned all the way back with UT and it's follow up SUT was that semantic nesting structure often incentivizes models that can deploy the very same learned structural parsing intelligence independent of how many

Oh, is the principle of sparse universal transformers finally in SoTA LLMs? I guess we did manage to eventually seriously crash into the wall "more compute than normal (non-looped/unique-weights) transformers can efficiently consu

For fast updates / high frame rate, especially also smooth fade from previous to next page, those displays only do black/white. They can typically modulate about 14 levels of gray in-between but reliably (without really bad ghost

I think back in the days before office workers that happened to do their work on a computer had access to the ancient relatives of "Microsoft Word"/"Libreoffice Writer", it was pretty normal for printers to take car

Yeah but you can train to perceive the threshold of impending over-hydration and adjust your behavior trigger thresholds to bump up against that more than you bump up against clearly perceived acute dehydration ("very much obviously cl

That's more for the intrusive thought aspects of "being thirsty", which get you to stop "sitting by the campfire" and "walk over the 5 minutes to the stream, to shovel a few handfuls of water into your mouth&qu

Isn't a more proper treatment (assuming the tree itself is healthy) to bump up the pavement target height like a foot or thereabouts and put down some slope smoothing ramps to limit how much it acts as a speed bump? I'd assume it

Germany had two sizable heatwaves this summer, of which one was so intense that for the first time in about "ever" ACs tripled/quadrupled in price (note this includes those on online stores where the shipping times would allo

Good thing we've been working on beating photosynthesis efficiency of turning sunlight into carbohydrates (e.g., sugar) by using special electrolysis cells to synthesize plant-accessible carbon-nutrients (one kinda-successful (in beati

Earphones are forgoing the outer parts of your ears and skull. Speakers don't; a "good" speaker setup with eyes closed and no wind/perceptible airflow and no smell and truthful thermal radiation surroundings is effective

Just use any carbon monoxide source (e.g., pyrolysis of pretty much anything that'd release carbon dioxide when burned works, followed by some cleaning to get rid of some problematic catalyst poisons (notably sulfur compounds)), add hy

For your brick wall home situation; polarization duplex combined with some amount of beam forming/spatial-multiplexing plus importantly directional antennas on both sides of the wall would give you substantial gains even without increa

Yeah you can run stuff through DECT I'm not sure what handheld suitable gateway you'd use and strap to the holster of the associated scanner, but otherwise... That said, in theory at the level you're asking for it'd be a

Liquid hydrogen cooled superconductors (20K) would be good especially if we manage to use some materials that don't suffer hydrogen embrittlement processed/machined economically enough to really play out the cost benefits of not r

You can use fuel cells; I'm sure external steam reforming based hydrogen (in protein exchange membrane fuel cells) works very well, but I'd not be surprised if some hydrocarbon or alcohol fuel cell beats it in TCO; also I'd e

Ohhh, nice; happy to have a chat on the subject; suggest a messaging option to discuss further if you're interested. Check out keybase on my profile for some listed contact options; you can also use the padlock symbol in the menubar th

Shouldn't be; at least if you count the termination setting trials that already were a thing with DDR4 as "DRAM training".

I'd like to point out that according to a tech blog or similar from years back, Google Maps public transit routing supposedly employs the zone-boundary hierarchy to do similar preprocessing, exploiting that at least in networks like e.

Sadly it's not too counterintuitive; remember the old "how many r's are in the word strawberry"? Also different tokens for the same named entity/concept if they almost entirely exclusively occur in non-overlapping c

A second angle on the counterfactual savings would be Luna telling them not to pursue a potential session with the expected/extrapolated (from which sessions they did ignore Luna on, e.g. just to keep efficiency statistics current) sun

Pretty sure a court order to return say a "PlayStation Dev kit" a game studio employee had when he got fired during covid remote work mandates, if it's just against the employee personally, would not obligate me to let you in

Early detection, while things can be cheaper to mitigate? Fixing hole in tooth is far cheaper than replacing a full tooth, for example.

Don't need global shutter just use a bit more math and IMU data with frequency in excess of the frame rate. Make it work with the recording capabilities of a good modern phone and handle the compute in non-real-time.

There's also the potential of co-locating non-evaporative cooling with CO2-scrubbing using a strong KOH solution in the big cooling towers and regenerating the hydroxide with calcium hydroxide (regular process done in kraft process pap
