Back in the mid to late 90s tracker stuff was what I considered "how techno was made" (I got an A grade for a presentation in "music" subject at grammar school, mostly because tracker terminology also included "patterns", samples, bpm and such (Future Crew Demos such as Panic and 2nd Reality were my baseline back then).

Boy was it a revelation when I got my hands at a "real" 909, 303+MPC+MIDI setup..

Not sure if that dove evolution parody video got me introduced to the flashbulb’s works initially but I sure enjoyed Kirlian Selections/Tape and Our Simulacra and for some reason came across Benn on numerous occasions (mostly HN related) in the past decade (didn’t know about the YT channel until now though)

Yeah, reading the sibling comments made me aware that my mental model when it comes to chemistry (and the role QM plays even in "simple" scenarios) needs an update.

Thanks for the angle!

Thanks for the reply and the links. Really have to read up a little.

Thanks for the reply, really didn't know such a vast amount of chemical reactions and outcomes was grounded in QM.

Disclaimer: didn’t read the paper and only have a very basic understanding of chemistry (and sorry for simplifying a complex topic), but started wondering whether we should be able to discover useful reactions via pure calculation by now (ignoring quantum effects)?

Despite being a specific domain, wouldn’t reasoning about reactions (and their efficiency in an industrial, large-scale setting) be something that "models" should be able to do quite "easily" (given the fact that bonding forces, energy requirements and catalytic effects are sort of well-known, i.e. just some more dimensions to deal with)?

There are a couple of comments on how search engine x dropped feature y on date z (i time periods after competitor j did).

Can anyone recommend a site that tracks those changes?

I find myself getting annoyed by serps of a given vendor and I might even be adopting to changes but ultimately jumping ship towards the next best thing if I can’t figure out a very low-effort way of influencing the results in my favor using flags that suddenly stop working - all I notice is a significant degradation of result quality.

Tldr: create a new visionOS app from the menu, it'll prompt to download the support files correctly.

Had a similar issue after doing the Xcode 15 beta 2 download with both iOS 17 and visionOS 1 simulator checked. When creating a new visionOS App it would tell me that I'm missing the device/simulator support and prompted to install it. After confirming this it would show a download for a build that ended in xxxxxxxg instead of xxxxxxxf as was part of the download, so I assume that part was updated in the background and now is no longer the correct reference.

HTH

Got your point. I only saw it from a very limited technical understanding of how ARKit works and how shared experiences can be achieved on a framework level.

Not explicitly mentioning shared experiences other than video calls at all could also indicate this is not the way it should be framed (by focusing on the collaborative aspects that exist "today").

The price sure point prevents me and my family members from casually trying this experience.

I was merely suggesting that the technology for shared experiences already exists in the form of shared anchors.

You could be right wrt "if they didn’t mention it explicitly it's not part of their (currently) intended experience", but it might as well be due to "spatial computing" being sth that primarily will be shaped by their adopters along the way, which is something different than a corporation plotting the experience up front (as might be the case with metaverse?).

Took me right back to my education and I never really thought about impedance values and why they were chosen.

We used to build 10base2 BNC terminators ourselves with empty connectors, a soldering iron, crimp tool and some hot glue using 47ohm resistors albeit with low tolerance values.

According to my boss they outperformed the industrially produced ones.

Back then, the network problems I was facing was either on the software/configuration side (wrong IPX/SPX network id) or simply faulty pc power supplies (I.e. getting shocked by mains voltage when touching ground, frequently happening after thunderstorms; also the terminators would be hot to the touch in such cases).
