I wonder if something like this would work for whole-room projection (i.e. not just a projector on a swivel): https://dl.acm.org/doi/fullHtml/10.1145/3531073.3531126

Wrong!

much better techcrunch article here: https://techcrunch.com/2026/07/26/hugging-face-ceo-calls-for... (that the above post is seemingly entirely based on).

It’s mostly due to higher temps resulting in faster ion migration, which can cause a breakdown in the structure of transistors, as well as increased wear on the conductors (though this is rarely a dominating factor). Thermal cycling can also cause cracking, which is also a problem. Though there are lots of reason chips fail due to heat, from the wire bonds on pads getting too hot to increased leakage current at high temps.

ICU costs are quite high in general, often 3-4x a regular bed, and about 5k USD average in countries such as Canada and the UK.

Although not quite exact, here's spending data for 2024 (https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/static-data/published-report...) - about 14% of tax dollars went to defence, 0.14*17000=2380.

this is something cool done by valorant - see https://www.riotgames.com/en/news/demolishing-wallhacks-valo...

(1) Aircraft rarely fly in anything close to formation in combat - large gaps are the norm (1-10 miles), and one would think that increased distance is something that could be exploited by an unmanned platform (able to take more risk, etc.)

(2) Remains to be seen.

(3) Individual Patriot missiles are around that price point, with S300/S400 anywhere from 500k-2M depending on capability. One would think that cost-per-kill would be favorable considering the increased capability granted.

Some of the stories could plausibly have SC involvement (the story of the same name is most likely) - but I don't think it's explicitly mentioned anywhere.

I feel like SAT solvers and the like are getting a lot more attention on HN recently (for example https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44259476) - justifiably so! I think that they're a great tool that's often criminally underused in industry for a whole subset of problems.

> the requirements for advanced math classes for every computer science major seem unnecessary

Computer science is much more than programming - and I think that most of the value derived is from being able to think about problems, which largely require the abstract type of thinking encouraged by more advanced math. Code is just a tool.
