I've imagined having an OLED screen which only flashes on momentarily. Could be used for writing without editing.
Elon: If there is no owner of the requirement to have a steering wheel, then we won't take it as a requirement.
Sadly or happily for me: one device, one specific pair of bluetooth headphones. I've started getting the $15 ones.
> I would have thought anything that can radiate heat slowly and consistently would by necessity also absorb heat slowly and consistently
Something like a ratio of flame-side heat absorption at flame temperatures, to room-side emissivity at room-side temperatures(wavelengths)?? This could fall out from material properties without appearing as an explicit design detail (e.g. a surface treatment).
As is commonly known, the Buddha taught that there is the high path, the middle path, and the meth path.
Besides cost today, may also help mitigate a possible helium shortage in the future.
Also: MRI@Home?
Forty years ago there was already this sentiment, as best as I can recall the quote: "It is well known that as the scale of the research grows, peer review becomes less effective."
FWIW, pre-www I was thinking of similar with a more restricted scope -- a would-be "Go Lincoln Avenue" within the scope of a single major bus line. Figured it would: a) allow for a five-minute retail stop without missing the next bus (thus possible support from retailers); b) minimize time waiting in the cold, motivating transit use.
Walter Bright had a similar looking zed.exe, at least as part of Zortech C++.
Jef Raskin: "Intuitive" == familiar.
User never used/discovered it before == not familiar.
Temple Grandin has a newer book titled
Visual Thinking. She tells of two groups taught to sharpen flints (IIRC). The first group had instruction only by gestures and example; the second group also had written or spoken instruction. Apparently persons in the first group developed skill faster. Overall she suggests that words can distract from visual observation or attention.
IIRC Derrick Jensen refers to an experiment in which apes caught on to cheating behavior faster than humans, presumably because they were not fooled by any spoken claims.
It would be very very small.
When I record myself saying "audio pareidolia", reverse-speech analysis suggests I am saying "A lotta rap outta."
Trick: "Dear teacher, Johnny was sick yesterday and could not attend school. Sincerly, Johnny's mom."
Anti-trick: Soon the teachers themselves will not be able to read cursive.
Although correlated, I'm less worried about the doctors than all the prescription errors which were said to kill many people.
And still the style does not go to 11.
> Rubber Duck AI chat bot
This sounds more like friendly AI than [different] "Devil's Advocate chat bot."
And it's whitelabel all the way down. So, is this just one generic universe of many?
I heard of one clothing retailer making all of its online profit from return fees.
> make no money on sales
On the model of "make the profit on replacement parts," perhaps groceries chains should be buying hospitals chains to profit from all the unhealthy food they are selling.
> how we interpret copyright laws or what kind of data rights laws we enact.
Will these large models (art images, domain expertise, chat) amount to a huge maw (with unlimited appetite) for anonymizing skills, perspective, and knowledge?
Can the training be parallelized in a manner similar to SETI-at-home?
Crazy crazy thought: Could any of the impetus around "policing disinformation" on the Internet also trace to creating preventative barriers-to-entry for such "dirty" models?
> the retro burn won’t slow you down, and you’re flying into deep space.
Came here with the same question: But can it stop?
> if I were to leave Earth orbit
Tangential or off-topic, but there must be some potential to send semi-autonomous avatar robots, with on-Earth help with perceptual interpretation and executive control. Yet another counterfactual "if only the manned space budget had been spent on that" question.
I once heard of a project manager being told by the project's accountant: "I can tell you are behind, because your spend rate is lower than planned."
Once more popular,there is a method called "programmed learning" where, based upon your answers to intermittent test questions, you might repeat a lesson or move ahead. Or, private tutors who would handle multiple subjects were once(?) more of a thing. Seems to me there is a brakthrough level of potential here, so ... yes.
Will the potential be realized, be cost-effective for the masses, etc? Not so sure.
> Pay people whose works you want to extract value from
So, e.g., from Basic Attention Token (BAT) to Basic Authorship Token (also BAT)?
IBM, Kodak, ... also PARC in the popular mix of such comparisons?
Bonus: She both solves a crime and diagnoses a medical condition from drops of blood found at the crime scene.
