This is a very coherent intelligent write up of why Musk buying Twiiter is a terrible idea.

This is a really beautiful explanation with interactive visualization of how sound works. It’s a bit basic for anyone with an engineering degree but I still got a kick out of it since it’s so nicely done.

Another impressive use of machine learning: create a depth map of a photograph, which is then used to adjust lighting in 3d space in a realistic manner.

1-click installer of Stable Diffusion for macOS.

Stable Diffusion feels essentially like magic to us 2022 cavemen.

Cool website shows “notable” people in their birthplace.

Comparison satellite photos of Cerro Prieto 2015 vs 2022.
Impressive view of the water crisis.

Nobody should be surprised that the Chinese government has accessed, or can force access if they want to, to TikTok's user data.

But more importantly, we have learned that social media can "nudge" user behavior by curating what users see. Foreign adversaries have successfully gamed the hell out of Facebook's system that prioritizes engagement.

Now imagine the foreign adversary actually having control over the algorithm and optimize for nudging user behavior as the main goal. It's scary, and we now now it can be quite effective.

This is a company worth watching. Sounds too good to be true, and if true it could be really a game changer.

Growing list.

Super fast and lightweight sports results and statistics.

Find Raspberry Pi stock. It’s crazy how hard to find it is at the moment. COVID-19 supply chain disruption and all that.

I first read about the possibility of transplanting pig organs to humans when I was a kid, for all the reasons listed in this article. It's fascinating to see it occur for real. This has huge potential to save lives going forward.

Three game cartridges to be released this year (2021!) for the Atari 2600. Yes, I find this to be really cool. I’m a sucker for these retro things.

Interestingly these are games that were developed back in the 80s but never releases. Where is the modern SDK for the Atari 2600?

Researches and ranks charities based on the positive impact of a single dollar.

Awesome videos, lots I never caught.

Another big milestone towards hopefully ending the madness.

This is an unbelievably cool application for the Raspberry PI: Emulate a 68040 that is super powerful compared to what was available in the eighties, and connect it to a Commodore Amiga. Throw in USB bridge, SCSI, etc.
