The scale. How many tools do you know that can query the content of all arxiv papers.

Doesn't look like the scale is there, even for HN:

> Currently have embedded: posts: 1.4M / 4.6M comments: 15.6M / 38M That's with Voyage-3.5-lite


The scale is there. I'm scraping, cleaning, token efficientizing dozens of sources every single hour. The lack of monies for embedding everything was a temporary problem.

HarmonyOS Next (Huawei) is independent from Android. So that leaves three options, even if Harmony is mostly China focussed. They have tons of users there.

I can't wait for Italo and Trenitalia to enter the German market, it can only get better. It's already at rock bottom for long distance. Short distance with foreign train companies is bearable (Westbahn, transdev, RXX...)

Neurodivergent people tend to write like this too, there was a study about it.

Good catch on the page title


The example doesn't look particularly impressive to say the least. Look at the bottom 20 %


I just refactored the rendering and resampling approach. Took me a few tries to figure out how to remove the banding masks from the layers, but with more stacked layers and a bit of GPT-foo to figure out the API it sort of works now (updated the GIF)

Keep in mind that this is not Gaussian splat rendering but just a hacked approximation--on my NVIDIA machine that looks way smoother.


> Chief microcontroller rival Adafruit

They are PCB brands. The microcontrollers are made by the usual manufacturers like ST, Renesas, Infineon...


I agree the writing is imprecise.

But of course Arduino historically also didn't make the Atmel or Pico chips, so I can sort of see what they were going for.


The writing is precise. Just inaccurate.


FOSS just does not have the aggressive scaling mindset. Even success stories like Linux' game compatibility and Chromium can be traced to just regular tech companies, as opposed to non profits.


Maybe this is ok?

Many non open source apps do get critical mass but they eventually go bust. Emacs, git, Linux and I think even Mastodon have a slower uptake but do not seem to have such a high risk of collapse. While YouTube and Facebook et al seem to have an insurmountable moat and collection of users the reality is recent history is littered with boom to bust failures:

MySpace, Vine, Yahoo all the way back to GeoCities.

I would be patient and only worry if mastodon is actively dying.

For me it's the only social media app I have installed.


What is the aggressive mindeset of Bluesky?

I have both Mastondon and Bluesky accounts and in my experience I find Bluesky is just simpler to use which attracted more of the types of accounts I wanted to follow. Nothing aggressive about that, just good UX resulting in a richer pool of accounts.


It is quite remarkable just how frequently people in tech forums underestimate reasoning models. Same story on several large technology subreddits. Wouldn't have been my guess for who will get caught off guard by AI progress.


The least volatile dataset, employee count 1-4 businesses, is steadily climbing in adoption. I feel like as long as the smallest businesses (so the most agile, non-enterprise software ones) increase in adoption, other sizes will follow.
