dataset != model weights

I think the donut shape is actually pretty clever for this. As stated by the article it has camera(s), and my bet is that it has enough of them that no matter how you throw that thing around, it always has 360 visibility around it. If the cameras were pointed partially towards the inside of the donut you'd also get some valuable depth information derived from having overlap with adjacent cameras...

Same goes for the microphones and speakers, place at least 3 of them evenly around the donut for some nice beamforming.

How is it any more of an opinion to "mark" a website as "unsafe" than say, "contains CSAM"?

The article has IMO two flawed arguments:

1. There is math for how long it takes to send even one packet over satellite connection (~1600ms). Its a weak argument for the 14kb rule since there is no comparison with a larger website. 10 packets wont necessarily take 16 seconds.

2. There is a mention that images on webpage are included in this 14kb rule. In what case are images inlined to a page’s initial load? If this is a special case and 99.9% of images don’t follow it, it should be mentioned at very least.

There is an example link in the article. Listing more examples would serve no purpose apart from web design perspective

Optical zoom changes significantly how out-of-focus areas looks like. For anyone doing photography (with actual cameras and actual lenses), calling crop an "optical zoom" is a lie from Apple.

If you have an actual physical zoom lens, cropping a zoomed out photo produces a different result than zooming in with the lens in the first place. Even when your camera/sensor doesn't move. It's all physics yo

Based on what is this a 3-year-old phone (excluding cpu)?

We are talking about phones right? Things that make calls

Am I the only one who is upset about this ”replace every button with obscure icon without label” trend? Seems that Google and Facebook are the main culprits of this. Every year it gets more disgusting when I unwillingly have to use their services.

I jumped straight to comparison (as it’s listed first) and was let down because the comparison seemed borderline deceiving. The other examples had hundreds of lines of logic and types for example.

I play fps shooter (Overwatch 2) weekly at minimum. I’m far from being ”pro”, advanced hobbyist rather. When Windows spontaneously decides to reset refresh rate back to 60, I’ll notice it the second I aim by flicking my mouse. In addition to strobe-effect of low fps, the increased input lag in mouse controls is absolutely noticeable and really messes my aim. So no need to be pro to enjoy (and notice) increased responsiveness in fps games as long as you’ll clock a few hours weekly to it!

Well that was the gist of the comment, right? You can say it subtly but the point and innuendo remains the same.

I’m not personally offended but admittedly tired of reading this same stuff every week. Maybe I should read less comments, though, as HN is starting to feel like a groundhog week. Luckily not on the same level as Reddit yet.

For every web-related HN post there’s always that one person who keeps reminding how it was all better 15 years ago and how you actually dont need any colours on web since they are so irritating.

Tired of hearing this pointless rant every time. Especially since this portfolio is something fresh and not just a cookie cutter WP theme with annoying animations. Web itself can be art or culture or whatever, if it takes 10 seconds to realize how to use it on your phone then big fucking deal. CURL is handy for reading web content I’ve heard, keeps you safe from unpleasant surprises

Same way Gitlab and countless other services are built on top of Git, which is definitely not owned by MS :)

The vsync latency is real and unbearable in some games. I think it uses a queue/buffer for frames which can cause latencies of multiple frames.
