There is no way to know if this has any substance behind it or not or is just some sort of marketing sign-up page

Yeah and for those of us who can't afford the "upscale" experiences, this sucks: our pleasantly diverse and human-crafted middle class lives replaced by the machine.

Yeah, and yet for a lot of people apparently this "garbage" is...good enough...so the human-crafted stuff can hardly compete. I recently heard an anecdote about a family that finally found a podcast that they all enjoyed listening

It is devaluing it. Just like you can still paint, and you can still play a musical instrument, but these aren't skills the average person cares about very much anymore. But instead of a couple of skills like that being slowly displace

It's really depressing that I have gotten into music composition right when this is happening. All of these projects are basically just destroying entire fields of human creativity. It doesn't seem so bad at first when the quality

The problem is it's kind of a question without a well defined answer. If it was just drawing a picture of a pelican, we can compare against real pelicans for accuracy. But what exactly is a pelican riding a bike supposed to look like?

Not sure if it's a rendering artefact, but the wheels are spinning backwards for me? Also, 10 tooth sprocket with 22 tooth chainring? Not impossible, but so small!

Firefox has been my main browser for at least 10 years now. Occasionally something doesn't work right and I use Chrome for that one thing. It's nice to slightly reduce the totally overbearing presence of Google in my life.

I don't really see the Blender connection here? This just seems to be a component library leaning heavily on 3D effects and lighting?

The part that horrifies me about this is the disincentive to revise any part of the text due to the flow-on effects.

A lot like humans, really. People regularly cite something they read, or quote a stat that turns out to be just completely inaccurate. But if you look up the thing, then you have facts again.

Wow, that's a great write up. I used to feel so smug about using Dvorak. Now it feels so outdated.

Very cool. I'm surprised that it is so hard to stitch the frames together, and requires acceleration data. Naive I guess, but I was imagining you could simply examine the frames and work out how to join them nicely in code. It'd b

Can you explain how short grass on the perimeter helps?

Pretty amazing. One of those great sites that is just "wow, I would never have thought of trying to build that". And I'm glad you did.

Are there any off the shelf e-readers which support this firmware? This site seems to be for people who want to solder together their own e-reader from components. Also, it does a bit misleading to say "Charging, battery protection, an
