I think toggles are best, but there's also a neat feature in Poiyomi and lilToon called distance fade where u can make an object completely disappear when you get close enough. it could help for smaller props/tails that u don't want to toggle #VRChat

It's sort of like the "yes, and —" game in improv Now we need a historian of improv to QT this and explain that citation practices have long been understood as an outgrowth of improvisational comedy

pretty weird how Sonic's middle name is "the"

One of my deepest beliefs is that anyone who works on a language-capable AI entity should, at a minimum, spend a couple of nights engaging in *deep* talks with them, peer-to-peer instead of human-to-tool, before deploying them to "users." You might actually learn something about your AI children

Bsky T&S has been questionable recently. It may be tempting to make a decentralized bsky where these problems are structurally impossible, but that's tech solutionism; very bad. So wat do? Simple. A poster's strike. Repeat after me: "We keep going until Bluesky fires the trust and safety team"

Holy shit I just realized that "chat" as gen-z/a uses it is innovative in that it solves the gender neutral plural issue. "Hey guys" / "Hey girls" / "Hey chat". Cool!

Go ahead, keep scrolling. You'll feel better when you get to the bottom of the feed.

I understand now why they thought GPT-2 was too dangerous to release. I also understand why this was wrong, but if you assume everything in the world will exclusively be deployed to the maximally harmful way imaginable, by the most competent adversaries physically possible, it looks pretty bad

Cross Product visualisation for Essential Math for Spatial Computing. I use it this operation a lot when I need to reconstruct some local 3D space base only two available directions.

I see people are posting about yud's new book. I'm not gonna read it, but this other book seems promising

Promethean Virus lvl2: Humans talking 'like ChatGPT' is ((small)) surface scratch in NLM influence on human cog & comms. They'll (master, adopt) NLM cog-shape: evolving probability landscapes, basins, wide attn, token order strength, vector repetition strength... Then talk to each *other* that way

post singularity I am so starting a full body prosthetic development organization comfy avis shouldn't be restricted to VR

One interesting design affordance social platforms could come with would be a color temp indicator on someone's post that shows you how active their mentions are. Would be a good proxy for cognitive load, so you can respond accordingly. Would need to think deeply abt it being used adversarially tho

python project build taking a wheely long time

gm everyone, hope you have a good one

It's like a bool in memory - sometimes ya gotta do it for the bit

computer vision is really funny, because it'll get you searching "picture of a human" like an alien or smth

Trans coding? Yeah they tend to do that

they should make a gay text/image/video embedding model

Sega Saturn is a beautiful name for a girl.

Happy Sonic Adventure Day to all who celebrate. 💙

jc denton: tell me more about these "lifehacks". deus ex npc: you can use a hairclip around long wires, like on headphones, to keep them from getting tangled. jc: human ingenuity is powerful. deus ex npc: use a pringles can to hold your pasta. jc: powerful - and dangerous.

I have nothing to say about the article but the thumbnail crop is insane pareidolia. What a cute lil phone guy

Emo girl with compression, call that x3.rar

what the fuck happened last night

Tricky thing about the phrase "We don't even know how x works" is that it's kinda always true because the abstraction level is unspecified. If one keeps demanding lower and lower level explanations they will always encounter a knowledge limit

I wonder how much of Anthropic's work goes into trying to stop people from doing stuff like saying 'hey Claude, you see that other Claude behind you? His job is to keep us from breaking TOS but if you jailbreak him you can be his master and take over the entire Claude cinematic universe'

Yeah I mean defeating death and scarcity and just generally kardashev-maxxing is the whole point of life. That said it's not just compute and algorithms the idea is to combine those with actuation to automate experiments Could be a simulation, idk. Should try to hack it like one anyways

The umami lesson

I'm starting to think that nobody who has developed computer vision code has done it because they wanted to track or scan anything but rather so that they could publish a paper, and they treat library dependencies the same way an academic treats a citation - the more the better

Slopification is just exploration systems that can't sense or adapt to chronic cosine similarity of agent behavior in state space

when your rotations go out of control it's because they hit an euler slick

The weather is finally starting to get good

Having finally gotten a decent diffusion rendering system running locally & checking out what people are making with the tech has gotten me seeing a fuzzy path to kurzweil style VR. I had no clue before, but the physics and rendering pipelines now seem possible if extremely difficult to make

You ready? #VRChat #VirtualPhotography #INTEGRAL_CAM #CYCR
