If he prefers to live his best years lactose tolerant and die earlier but having lived the way he wanted as opposed to living a mediocre lactose intolerant life for longer, then it could still be a success
Effects wore off after 18 months I think. He explains in the video why it was expected.
He took the pills 6 years ago still not killed by cancer. And of course this is n=1. The first thing he says after taking the pills is "Lets hope this does not kill me" :D
> - How did you find companies that make the parts (pcb, enclosure)?
For the PCB, it came down to who could meet the specs that I needed for the board. I recall the three important specs being BGA pad spacing, wire thickness, and wire spacing. The ICE40 was the aggressing chip IIRC. I ended up using nextpcb.com.
For the enclosure, I think I just Googled some and had 3 different manufacturers make the same enclosure, and chose the best one to mass produce. I ended up using mfgproto.com.
> - How do you assemble all the parts (do you do that yourself or did you find a company to do that for you)?
For the PCB, I had NextPCB do PCBA, except for the BGAs (which I soldered myself, 500 of them!) and motion sensors, because I didn't trust mailing my high-value stock to China during Chipageddon. That was likely a mistake -- in the future I would have them assemble everything, because their process isn't designed for how I wanted to do things, and soldering that many BGAs sucked.
For the final assembly I did everything by hand (insert PCB into the enclosure, screw in PCB screws, connect battery, add battery shims [to prevent rattling], add RTV gasket to the backplate, screw in backplate screws, add lens adhesive, focus lens while streaming images). It's a ton of manual labor!
Feels like science papers need a comment section. Replace peer-review with public-review. A way for authors to interact with the larger (science) community.
Openreview is nice. I guess it could integrate with arxiv to allow preprints but someone needs to pay for moderation if we are to keep a high standard of comments.
I only skimmed the landing page but it seems like it helps more with the while pipeline (asset creation, packing and optimising) rather than just the end rendered.
And I hope we will have good AIs running on our own hardware. I obviously want to use AI to create lots of porn for me. And that is really no one else s business.
Speaking of - I already heard of a project that is fine-tuning StableDiffusion to produce porn.
How do they have sooo many employees. They are running a few websites and a bunch of apps. I can understand how they would need a hundred people for that. They have a massive userbase. So I can understand how they would need a thousand people just to deal with tech at scale and support.
But how do you manage to have so many people that you can fire 10k ?! If I googled well, they appear to have 72k employees. Where did you find the management that thought having 72k employees is reasonable to operate a bunch of websites and apps ?!
So they are using sound waves to form very exact force-fields in 3D. But when you throw matter in there, would that not interact and reflect all the waves in unpredictable ways, destroying the very exact force-field pattern they are trying to achieve?
