They have a bit different characteristics to dynamic/condenser mics - usually less high frequency content, and pronounced proximity effect.

Often used for horns, violin, guitar cabs - sources where you want to reduce "shrillness" but you can use them anywhere.

It’s mostly useful as a hands free shortcut to get replies from chatgpt. Beyond that it’s useless

All the promises of integrating deeply into the OS and have APIs directly into apps so you can use natural language to get any app to do stuff for you is vaporware

So much potential but none of it delivered yet, I hope it will change soon

Interesting. Thanks for the information.

love the illustrations! all custom made?

what are the other options?

Stock illustration sites. Renders of stock 3d models. Stolen without credit. AI generated.

None of those are options for this thing. They are all real DIY projects that some people have made. Some of these especially 3d printed ones have 3d models made by authors of each project. Still takes time to make clean and consistent illustrations out of them, probably less bad once you do it hundred times in a row and have a good workwflow. But for others especially ones made of cloth there is no choice other than drawing them by hand. I guess you could speedup the process by tracing over a photo. As for stolen without credit aspect, at the bottom of each page there is a projects name, author and website where it was posted, it also functions as link. One thing that could be better is making links accessible in printed version either as text or QR code of them, currently you can only access them only in digital version.

looking at them again, they're definitely all 3d renders with a consistent toon/outline material

beautiful.

Not a big proponent of saturated fats but dietary LDL has only a modest impact on LDL-c - 5-10%. Other things that have similar or larger impact are exercise, reducing sugar intake, not being overweight, and consuming soluble fibre. Plant sterols/stanols also help

All of those things are good ideas in addition to replacing SFA with PUFA. Don’t see why it has to be one or the other.

thanks, will be checking the book!

My intuition is that some people are able to develop abstractions on top of abstractions (compression is a key part of intelligence) that allow them to traverse the search space much, much faster than without these, and with enough repetition this becomes routine, even faster in the brain.

I don't think we have a good theory of how this works, or at least I haven't come across it.

Neural network guided search is somewhat similar but I think we are missing several key pieces

I often think about Ramanujan in the context of AI, if reasoning is type 2 thinking how did he (apparently) come across a lot of his ideas as intuitions

I wonder if you can train a neuronetwork to have the kind of intuition Ramanujan had. How incredible would it be for math discoveries. Then separate AIs to try and prove or disprove the insights.

probably but we don't know how to build that type of intuition. in humans or in machines.

AlphaProof does do some kind of neural network guided search and automated theorem proving to validate it https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/ai-solves-imo-problems...

But it's still fairly brute force and inefficient

it was very early. probably one of their all time best acquisitions in addition to YouTube.

Re:using RL and other types AI assistance for chip design, Nvidia and others are doing this too

Applied Semantics for $100m which gave them their advertising business seems like their best deal.

don't forget Android.

are these better than qwen at codegen?

Caffeine metabolism becomes less effective as you age

There’s also Guayusa which is pretty much same routine as tea
