im confused, surely there already exists clasification models, which, given multidimensional sensor data, output the most likely "activity" type? why would text modality be a better choice?


AFAIK, these islands of regularity/stability are a common aspect of chaotic systems, say the logistic map[1].

I may be mistaken but I seem to recall having also read on numerous occasions that ejection of one of the bodies is an inevitability in these types of systems.

Given the limited state space of the simulation, I'm not sure I see what the big discovery is here.

It's certainly a neat result to see it visualized though.


Off topic buying haven't seen a bit of code in Wikipedia to run to see a visualisation before


i would also think it is achieved by piezo's, though maybe thats specific to drum stuff?


reminds me of tsoding's nobuild, except it bypasses make and the only thing required is a C compiler. neat!


Do you have a link or more info on this?


https://github.com/tsoding/nobuild

Basically it is a build system that uses C as a DSL. And no dependency tracking I think?


Thanks but... Oof! I think I prefer make.


this is nice! wonder what it would take to make it emulate a small DOS like environment. the qt py has an esp32s3, which afaik is quite a beast for a microcontroller.


now I know what simcard nano uses for their radiohead covers! I have always wondered where did those vocals come from. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApL1d_OQYk4


from their youtube comment:

> Good question. For efficiency, we try to keep commonly used terms such as letters as short as possible. Note that the words we use for letters all one syllable, whereas the NATO phonetic alphabet are mostly two syllables. The words we use for spelling are also chosen so that they can be chained together easily and quickly, eg “harp each look look odd”. Easy to say quickly without slurring


> The idea that fluid is solving the Navier-Stokes equation seems like an obvious error to me - it cannot solve the equation, it simply acts a fluid, which the equation was designed to approximate.

that's his "Principle of Computational Equivalence", that natural processes are themselves computations. it's easy to see this is true in a "made-up" universe, say Game of Life, but whether our universe is computational is still an open question I think.


"learns on its own" makes it sound like unsupervised learning, but it's labeled data: the researchers also input the correct "output voltage" which they want the system to learn.

it's still neat tho. I feel that an AGI will come out of an analog computer rather than a digital one.


I feel like AGI will be an emergent property of a network of computers rather than an individual analog-or-digital one.


IKR, sad to see such ingenuity used to hack activists.
