Not sure but if you want to use a flat bed scanner then maybe if the engraving is deep enough you could just ink the plate and then press a sheet of paper onto it and scan the paper instead.
That’s what I was thinking of
Someone should reimplement this for use with cheap laser engraving machines so we can make physical backups on any material like stone, wood, stainless steel, or plastic.
If you do want to add evaluation of mathematical expressions you should check out Math.js since they provide a parser among other utilities. Please make it optional though, it would be a nightmare to debug if everything…
The evolutionary record is piled high with the bones of extinct species, extinctions caused by changes in the environment or by other species. We are not unique, we are just one of many millions of species to find a way…
Yes because the greedy capitalists will obviously keep this valuable technology all to themselves, hoarding it away so they alone can revel in its delights. Give me a break, this isn’t 1924, we know how things actually…
UBI won’t happen but the price of most goods and services will fall to a tiny fraction of what they are now. There will still be people who are considered impoverished but they’ll likely have a higher standard of living…
I hate this framing of humanity as a “fundamentally destructive species” it’s a meaningless sound that people make with zero serious thought given to it. Exactly which species are not destructive? All animal life must…
If you really want to make more work, blow up budgets and create positions for masses of developers and assistants then you should demand we go back to punch cards and doing all the planning and algorithm design on…
Rome wasn’t built in a day, all of those technologies will still be around 20 years from now and will likely be powering a lot of everyday stuff. Short timelines are hype, the technology itself is anything but.
If it makes you feel better, the AI will write all the code for the tests and come up with all the variations and do all the fuzzing to try to break things. You’ll just have to do a good job of explaining the…
If you employ an AI to do software development for you then you are now a boss, congratulations. Getting rich is still up to you though.
Because we’d rather be living in a world where textiles are so cheap to produce that everyone can afford to clothe themselves however they want and even the working poor can furnish their homes with upholstered…
Steps 2 and 4 through 8 are what this implementation along with others like Devin are doing. 1, 3, and 9 may have surprise answers when a reliable system can produce a working app/website/tool in a matter of minutes. If…
Jobs aren’t distributed out of some cookie jar. They are needs and wants and obligations that other people will pay to have fulfilled or taken off their hands. Figure out how to solve those problems and you’ll have all…
Move to a higher level of abstraction and architecture. We’re leaving the era of hand wiring data structures and program logic the same way we left behind the era of hand wiring ICs and discrete components. Different…
I’d rather be in the textile industry post industrial revolution than before it. The fortunes made during the age of mechanization make all of history’s kings and merchants paupers by comparison.
What makes you so sure that problem solving and invention aren’t just engineering challenges that we can solve by combining LLMs with well designed algorithms? The way I see it, we’ve just discovered something…
You’ve never made a mistake in your reasoning? Tongue in cheek but this has been considered and has resulted in experiments like tree of thought and various check your work and testing approaches. Thinking step by step…
Your definition is incomplete: an MVP is the smallest subset of useful features to take the product to market in order to prove or disprove its viability and the reason you want to keep it to the minimum is to minimize…
Exactly, they’ve reached feature parity with large expendable launch systems so they can piggyback paying customers with a high risk threshold (starlink) on flights they’d be doing anyways. Given their cadence this…
If they passed a law requiring US companies operating in Europe to divest their ownership in those subsidiaries or be banned from operating there then that would be their right as a government. Isn’t the EU rather…
You need a data centre if you want to run the bleeding edge SOTA models but the weights of these models are fixed which means it should be possible to instantiate them in hardware and once you have a model smart enough…
Why would it hide competitors if they also pay for ad space? Newspapers didn’t offer the option to pay to have your competitor’s ads removed.
On a tidally locked planet the polar region is effectively the terminator line. There is also a greatly reduced Coriolis effect due to the very slow rotation. The insolation of the day side is a lot higher as mentioned…
