Use vibration to measure small masses. Measuring natural frequency can be very accurate and sensitive.

It is pollution and it harms people. So in order to do things that are good we must harm others first (or after)?

Legit question: if I replicate a patent for a personal non profit use, is this infringement? Perhaps it is because I'm benefiting from the intelectual property.

Depends on how much power you need (speed times force, acceleration and deceleration...) and how much stiffness you need (can't bend?). Also depends on how much travel you need. It is easier to get 50 micron accuracy over a total leng

Is this related to lasers behaving as as a body with negative temperature when they manage to heat something to a hotter temperature by radiation?

Microwave heating is not a fourth form of heat transfer as it name implies: microwave radiation. Yes, the heat is not being radiated by a thermal source of microwaves, but it is radiation being absorbed. Hence radiation is the mechanism. Ro

Enriching uranium is more expensive than making plutonium by a long shot. Modern nukes are two point implosion, not really fiddly. And when was the last criticality incident related to phase transition? Can't remember one.

How so? Huge flooding in Brazil this year, they are not recovering any time soon. Poor countries lack the resources that rich countries literally burn for their luxury.

Because the market is made up of selfish human beings. First they don't care for long term environmental consequences. If that is not enough, then they use fossil because their enemies are using, and not using it means getting destroye

I recall Marvin Minsky saying that 1 GigaFlops would suffice for doing most of what humans do. Current AI is addiction to more data, more compute but no smarts. At least they gave us cheap compute, soon the right people will figure out how

Sadly you can't get a glimpse on the immense effort we put into destroying our society. But the nunbers are available if you are curious enough.

Psychopathy is also on a normal distribution... this "big numbers" argument is very weak. We all know what the masses like to do with the environment.

How are these people arranged in the image? It is doable with good models and some sanity checks, comparing hands per square meter and heads per square meter.

YOLOA model has knowledge for dozens of objects. At every frame it is computing lots of parameters not related to your case. This is very wasteful and the main reason you can't achieve your performance goals.

Humans did it manually in the 60's. How hard can it be to do it with computers and radar? I don't want to sound like that guy but... how hard can it be? Edit: My point being: spacex is already doing it on earth, dealing with stron

More compute can't save you from dumb methods. Memorizing the whole of human text while being fooled by a prompt crafted by a 14 year old doesn't mean its intelligent.

A reminder that so called engineers will bleed you dry before anything. As with many robotics projects, the people hired excel in one thing:doing what they already know. That is why you and I never see new robots.

Most ads I see on YouTube are very dubious and poorly made. A reasonable ammount are plain fraud. It is very frustrating going to "ad center" and reading about how the advertiser did not verify his identity.

I agree with that, and I am comfortable with the prospect of others not putting themselves first, therefore opening up the possibility of them putting my interests first.
