I do believe that as vision/multi-modal models get to a better state, we would see even crazier interaction surfaces.
RE: duckdb. I have a wonderful time with ChatGPT talking to duckdb but I have kept it to inmemory db only. Do you set up some system prompt that tell it to keep a duckdb database locally on disk in the current folder?
Spectra color so high res and beautiful with built in esp32.
My issue with it is when I use it on my codebase, it doesn't like my (probably old style) eslintrc. So it decides to go ahead and reformat my file on save :(.
If you look at tooling companies annual revenue
- Atlassian: 1.4B - Jetbrains: 400M - Vercel: 100M - Supabase: 16M - Prisma: 10M (maybe?)
We dive into the long tail quickly. I would be very surprised if Monodraw make more than 1M a year. At that revenue, it's going to be hard to expand into a multi-platform / web strategy (especially if your existing product is platform-locked).
How is the Xreal One Pro for extended use? My concern is I have to put up with low res screen as I code away.
Bitwarden seems to be getting updates often as well which I value in a security conscious product.
The USB-connected devices is ok since I can use a USB switcher. But I can't figure out how to switch my monitors' input sources without manually using their OSD and control buttons.
Everything runs on your device. Works in phone's browser and VR headsets' browser. Even has extra Computer Vision features like Image Target and face tracking as well.
I had a chance to talk to an inspector who looked at my place who has previously worked with Zillow to inspect houses that they were buying. The gist is that Zillow are getting the worst houses (the ones with trash everywhere, burnt carpet, feces on the wall). For them to get a "normal" house is very rare. Nobody with a normal house (and better) under normal condition (and better) will sell to Zillow. You can get a 1%+3% fee full service (pro pix, pro staging, pro cleaning, ...) any day of the week and still sell your house in mere weeks. I was not even in Austin. I guess if you don't care about making tens of thousands in a month (or hundreds of thousands in nicer cities), then you have bigger things to worry about.
Zillow's offer was already higher than OfferPad and other iBuyer's services. After my experience on the sell side with Zillow, I am incredibly wary of ALL iBuyers on the buy side.
The current state of AR is * Hardware is not there yet. Phone-based AR is the current hardware until then. * Fantastic content is still in the work. Content creators and developers are aware that app download is the biggest slog on distribution. Nobody is going to download (and keep) your app to experience AR for 5 minutes. Most AR experiences last less than 30 seconds. * True Web AR, where you can literally go to a link on your browser and experience interactive AR, is the best medium for content delivery. Write HTML, CSS, JS and get AR content. This works on both short-form (< 5 minutes) experiences and long-form (>5 minutes) experiences. * Foundational layers of AR are either missing or vendor lock-in: persistence object (e.g. come back to the same space tomorrow and see the same thing), multiplayer (e.g. see the same content from your own angle with your friend), distribution (e.g. the same content getting specialized for different form factors), creation tools (e.g. environment scanning, object scanning, ...).
Many (see other comments) people are correct when they say that phone AR is not what AR should be. That even the Hololens or the Magic Leap are not it. This will change with time but it's a catch-22. You need some hardware to get more content to get more hardware to get more content.
The kit works on Unity and supports both Android and iOS, using the right library on the right phone.
The sample JSON of the plan doesn't indicate how big the boxes would be when presented on the UI. And also how to draw the connections between them.
