You can find all the software there (for every demo shown on the website), but it's not "build-ready" given the hardware isn't released yet as the website makes clear. The repo is from last year but not generally advertised.
I suppose HN picked up on this project again because of the moon mission this week.
Apparently it’s a way to attract attention and support. I’ve been following picoIDE which got some attention here on HN 4 months ago [1]. When asked then where the src is, the answer was in a few weeks. Fast-forward a crowd-supply campaign (no mention 4 months ago) to the tune of 350k and the repo is still empty.
Wind is not a homogeneous movement, there are highways and slow lanes. Spores (as from fungi), pollen (from wind pollinators such as grasses) and dust-like seeds (e.g. from orchids) are ideal nucleation points for condensation. So when wind is forced up (because of changes in the terrain) these are the particles that get filtered out: either physically as precipitation or functionally by freezing.
For those interested, there have been a number of studies that put numbers on the action radius. When genetic manipulation of wind pollinators (e.g. wheat, corn and others grasses) came in vogue they needed to put a number on the dispersal of modified pollen.
Yes, but a computer is just a paperweight without its software. Also, increasingly the hardware is being specifically designed and optimized for that non-deterministic software. The experience of using computers is changing and we’re still in the early days of that shift.
Of course there’s still plenty of deterministic software you can run… for now.
I can almost guarantee that all of AI runs on deterministic hardware and software. AI is just (near?) the top of the stack. There is no reason, and probably never will be to have a purely heuristic computer. Deterministic systems are way simpler and cheaper to handle very routine well defined tasks. Even AI authors code behind the scenes to process data files deterministically.
Are you saying that "Artificial Intelligence" is just not properly named for now.we.currently use it? Feels like at least the distinction of qualifying it with the term, "LLM" is popular.
From my personal experience, the article and the comments I read here they seriously undersold the reliability of rewriting. For any other RW medium (audio or video cassettes, even floppies) I remember ad campaigns by Sony, TDK, Philips, … on tv. But not for these.
I feel in general the industry was more conservative making these kind of estimates than it is today. I assume they also benefited from years of CD-RW field experience honing the tech.
If you know the structure of the “tick”, you can apply the technique of a correlation receiver. It can dig up signals below the noise floor and is used in GPS reception.
I'll do some research on this! I have a nagging feeling that there is more I can do to get the most out of this, but struggle with knowing where to look since this is not my background. I'm learning a lot as I go!
