AI hits a "I'm Spartacus, and everybody else should be regulated" moment.

And tablets should have a "direct touch only, all options present mode" (no long-presses, no drags, no drags from edge, no swipes." It would really improve accessibility.

Unfortunately not. Most of my sampling ideas were too slow and not effective at high degree.

Came to say the same thing. Now remains the time to give the public access to the ACM digital library.

ACM agrees I think: https://dl.acm.org/openaccess

> Beginning January 2026, all ACM publications and related artifacts in the ACM Digital Library will be made open access.

Wait, so did this already happen and it just didn’t get attention?

It was a front page story here on HN back in December 2025:

It got a lot of discussion here when it happened and before as they phased it in.

I could not tell what parts the human author thought were phantasies they felt they had escaped versus which they really were wallowing in. Who honeypots the honeypots?

It's honeypots all the way down.

Why would they remain fundamentally expensive? It is a fixed machine (so eventually you recoup the investment) and running consumes nothing other than electricity and a paper gown. MRIs cost under $200 in Japan.

> $200

This makes more sense than the comment elsewhere here that says $50.

My guess: It would be a basic scan with minimal sequences and low quality at that price.

With insurance in the US they’re $750 each… As in elbow and wrist on the same arm count separately…

Is $200 close to what it costs the hospital, or after subsidies?

$200 is the cost for the hospital, they "resell" it for $750-1500 mostly paid by insurance

Thanks. I had some friends look. Half got it to work, half errored out.

My feeling on geometric algebra is that you should look too much into it until you exhaust the exterior algebra. That is (in my opinion): it isn't a good use of it to replace the cross product or specialized representations of 3-d geometric rotations. It is good for when you get a bit sick of the bookkeeping of the exterior algebra. From a computer scientist point of view it is sort of adding a bit of type information beyond just vector dimension and depth of product.

No point up-voting or down-voting this, already flagged off the site. Possibly triggered a controversy filter? I know the title is provocative, but it is actually the point the video is trying to establish (so it wasn't just ad-hominem).

There is always a point. It's unflagged now.

Thx, but looks like you are also getting downvoted. Sorry about that.

:D I expected nothing less! :)

Not quite on topic. But I feel there is an issue in politics where many non-wealthy people vote as if they are "temporarily inconvenienced billionaires." That is they endorse policies that favor billionaires, as they have some hope of being one someday.
