Hilarious claim considering regular fingerprint readers can't dependably read my print for more than a few weeks max. I believe this not at all.

Way back in the 90s a lot of people thought quite a bit about wearable computers and decent easy input to them. This is not that different from decent input to VR systems. Obviously Apple with its VR model and stupid floating keyboard doesn't have it right. Who cares if you finger flexes are mapped? You can do that just monitoring a few muscle twitches. You don't need to map neurons at all. Especially for things like typing what is wrong with the 3 joints per finger times 9 other fingertips per joint for 10x9 inputs letters/numbers? That is an idea fro the 90s.
So if you could read per neuron good luck training people to map intent to individual neurons. Biofeedback is simple in comparison. Why is Meta boring us with science fiction gobbledygook that isn't even as good as stuff that has been brainstormed for 30 years?
If you want the developed world to stay solvent and one the developing world to develop then moves like this are crucial. Also ending anti-nuclear hysteria. Renewables? On the order of $6 trillion for just the renewable energy equipment and installation in the US without additional obvious costs. An estimate 10x that to do renewables worldwide. When the world is still not recovered from the disastrous COVID measures and is being further damaged by the Russia sanctions and ESG gone made when it comes to all important things like farming, energy, fertilizer we simply cannot afford the costs even if you believe it is necessary any time real soon (ti ISN'T). Net Zero 2030 is a very cynical and dangerous to human flourishing push.
There is no energy source that beats it in both density and portability today. This combination is especially important in many applications in the developed world and crucial to many more in the developing world. So for once I approve of something the World Bank did. Human flourishing is directly correlated with per capita energy use.
Climate Castastophe claims are completely overhyped. The earth has survived and the biosphere including humans thrived in much warmer and both much higher and much lower CO2 levels. The notion that a CO2 runaway is imminent is a theory not supported by the geological record. And some of those much much warmer periods had declining rather than rising CO2 levels as well. That we should fret and even dismantle our standard of living over such dark fantasies makes me doubt the sanity of the species or the benevolence of those that would claim to be leaders.
Yeah, when I was at Apple it was challenging even on Mac OS new versions. Often there was not a layered process of getting lower level subsystem new features ironed out before new features of systems that were its clients. And truthfully it is not always possible to do such meaningful layering in a complex software system like and OS and its development tools and build in house fully. But there were days, and even weeks when my team could not really progress on its new deliverable items because one or more layers + new stuff below us was too badly broken. Some things we could get done by reloading a stable version of the OS and building on that. But obviously not things that depended on new features of things below us. So we became de facto additional bug finding and debugging for layers we depended on at times.
Sometimes it felt like a miracle when the entire stack became solid enough to actually test each new feature at every level for itself.
Obviously not. Most likely in 10, 20 years we will not even have the same products. Think how many products were replaced by the smart phone. If in 10, 20 years we have working neural lace then smartphones themselves would likely no longer be relevant. Also think how much cell phones changed from funky bricks to today's smartphone. No way looking at designs up to the funky bricks could anything, no matter how smart make a future proof brick that was relevant.
AI is not magic. There is no magic.
Since when is slashdot against meritocracy and user/client/customer feedback. Is there any monitoring of what kind of tripe can be posted?
Users will not trust Reddit headed by someone that edits their posts "because I can" for any reason whatsoever. This is more than a relatively innocent screwup. This is clear fraud and violation of the fundamental nature of Reddit. FIRE!
Today I can buy an SD card that is 1TB. This greatly adds to the effective disk storage of the machine. I don't use it for camera.
Blaming all startups now in or that came out of the incubator is completely and totally unjust. Thiel's private political decision, much as I disapprove, is not their responsibility or any of their doing. So punishing these startups for that is not just.
Why is this horseshit even posted? The tiniest glance at actual temperature change data show this is complete BS.
How does the attacker know what memory pages are what in the targets VM space? That seems like quite a trick. Or is Amazon sharing various pages among all machines that are known to the public somehow? I am not a cracker myself so I don't really get how the attacker has this information.
There is no way to spoof a fingerprint sensor with a 3D printer. It would take extremely precise printing, far better than any 3D printer the local cops are like to have and a very precise fingerprint. And a sensor that has no ability to note discrepancy with living tissue. So I am claiming complete bullshit pretense of far more powers than cops have.
Heck, I have to recalibrate my iThing fingerprint patterns every month or so to get it to recognize the real thing.
They are only trying to protect rent seeking schemes that almost exclusively benefit labels and studios and not actual creators. The goal is to maximize access and further creative while rewarding creators. Anything short of that is simply not good enough and introduces too many negatives including limiting how much benefit we can get from our technology and criminalizing everyone who may attempt to fully utilize the abilities of the technology.
I've noticed several design suggestions in your code.
