Source to source, F77 to JavaScript is already pretty good but WASM is better.

I've used the NAIF SPICE toolkit (https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/naif/toolkit.html) which includes the Yarkovsky effect and such, important for small bodies.

I love this. The kind of simple solution that gets the job done.

... and that's why the King's war against pamphleters is just! Kids are learning morse code at an alarming rate! Ban AI art, if not all art! No, okay. Just no.

Whereas others take drugs made in bathtubs and cooked by idiots. The right to experiment on oneself is, for now, an advantage individuals have over corporate interests. You do you. I'm happy just seeing what kinds of stuff they make, for now, but if someone makes something cool, I'll buy the kit.

House of cards experiences strong wind.

The denial of the parental right to shield their children from the harshness of the outside world and the human condition, until an appropriate age and level of education. Homeschooling was one form of backlash, along with the alt-parenting movements, and all the rest. All doomed to failure, but the resistance continues. Started long before smartphones. Encyclopaedia salesmen used to have to contend with the "I don't want my kids getting wise too fast" problem. We'll say the same thing about implants. The exo-cortex is good, actually.

Hey, just because it looks, smells and is written exactly like every other moral panic ever, doesn't mean Concerned Mothers shouldn't go lobby for a law to Change Things for the next generation. Surely it won't lead to a generation that is praised for lower [drug use, comic book fascination, dungeons and dragons, sci-fi, etc, etc, etc] during the enforcement period who then suffer from massive relapse in later life, sometimes with disastrous- but more often just revolutionary- effects on the world, man.

Is someone maintaining a big list of BCIs somewhere? If you're going with extra-cranial hardware, I think the best available involves Microwave Brain Stimulation along with passive sensing methods like this. Unidirectional brain -> computer is neat but so long as the feedback is via sight or sound it's just another move-the-mouse alternative.

Whisper it to me lover.

The article doesn't summarise the differences between developing these cross-platform apps vs only targetting Apple and that is the most important information really.

Did I miss it?

Anyone got more?

Dehydrate!

Your Favourite Band Sucks is popular despite most people only listening to one or two episodes before they're sick of the format.

It was a bit of a gut punch for me.

His is a story of a self-selected marter. This is an unpopular opinion: he broke the law and refused to plead, then jumped on RT and dissed the prosecution for years. There was no chance they were going to back down.

Why does this hurt me?

Well, Lawrence Lessig and Richard Stallman and the rest of them radicalised me at a young age too. I was their boy. Watching that documentary was like looking into a time-warping mirror!

Maybe every hairy nerd my age feels the same way, I don't know.

One thing that happened was the anti-tracking movement provided a better interface. They have their own comment sections that are somewhat better than the actual site. Bifurcation ensues.

I think the annoyance is that they weren't interested in giving tours until someone asked, and they figured out they could make a profit. Pretty reasonable to expect a ticket, even if it isn't free.

This can't arrive fast enough.

We're done for!

Have you read the field lately?

Just how long ago was your molecular biology degree? Mine was 7 years ago and I've been reading every week since then.

You should try to keep up.

Yeah so? I think you're suffering from geneticism. The idea that we only change through inherited traits and mutations over geological time periods is ancient nonsense compared to what we know about epigenetics now.

The irony is Jean Baptiste Lamarck had it closer than anyone. Animals genetically adapt to new environments in their own lifetimes and that includes making changes to the DNA.

We can also help them to adapt.

The idea that this is dismissive of the problem is nonsense. It's the solution.

Why does it matter if other birds can adapt? We got lots of different types of birds. It's awesome. Maybe we'll get new types of birds! Why does "this particular variation is going extinct" matter?

He wasn't lost he was hiding!!

It's literally the title.

If you haven't read the complaint, why comment? It's right there!

and fraudulent

OpenAI LP is the designation.

Quite the opposite.

Copyright is all about encouraging the production of "art" and has all these exceptions to ensure the exploitation doesn't restrict creation.

Without copyright we'd have guilds that enforce secrecy and fidelity.

Kill Bill was good actually.

I don't know why you think it's relevant. All that matters is the privacy law in the local jurisdiction. Some people will be fine with it, others wont. The real question is: what's the harm?
