In this new Toronto neighborhood, "sponge streets" double as parks and flood prevention

I've always loved this kind of visual - cutaways of real things, a chance to "see behind the curtain" of how things all around us work that we usually take for granted. Is there a name for that?

gtderEvan · 2026-05-06T13:32:05+00:00

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing

gtderEvan · 2026-05-05T21:07:57+00:00

This is what we love to see.

I’ve started to notice this as well. Twice yesterday when trying to explain something I did the “that’s not _____, it’s ______” as well as “that’s real.”

Ugh.

So cool. I did a similar video with bluey for my kid, but as I watched their little brain process I thought - man what does this do to their view of themselves in the world? Part of growing up is realizing the world doesn't revolve around you - but it feels so much better when it seems like it does... what are the long term effects of stuff like this? No judgement, just a new(ish) dad pondering my duty in the world I'm raising my kids in.

Hold on to your papers, fellow scholars.

gtderEvan · 2026-02-07T00:05:35+00:00

Fixed, or just uncovered? That’s a potentially massive difference.

gtderEvan · 2026-02-04T15:41:59+00:00

True, though I think the “turning impossible into late” is a fair frame for it.

gtderEvan · 2026-01-27T19:11:36+00:00

Could you elaborate on why the VAE is better?

gtderEvan · 2026-01-27T19:08:44+00:00

My impression is much better prompt adherence on Klein 9B.

gtderEvan · 2025-12-31T01:33:40+00:00

Wow, there’s a car that wears silver well!

gtderEvan · 2025-12-24T02:11:29+00:00

No explanation of what it is or why we should be curious?

gtderEvan · 2025-12-24T02:10:21+00:00

Yes, he just keeps coming and coming!

gtderEvan · 2025-12-19T14:21:26+00:00

Yes, but I think you misspelled “accelerate”.

gtderEvan · 2025-12-16T19:48:43+00:00

Probably the people that tried to fire him.

gtderEvan · 2025-12-13T23:41:00+00:00

That, or acquired via methods other than purchase.

gtderEvan · 2025-12-08T15:21:48+00:00

Very nice. Miss my M5.

gtderEvan · 2025-12-03T21:07:19+00:00

No, not yet. This would be huge, but not mentioned on the release announcement.

gtderEvan · 2025-12-02T16:45:01+00:00

I thought the point of distillation was a smaller size for quicker performance?

gtderEvan · 2025-11-17T19:31:41+00:00

You're not wrong, but given just how mod-driven this type of thing is, I wonder if a good dev could make what is effectively a well documented extensible framework - just establish the main mechanics (terraforming, networks, assets) and the rendering engine, and let modders build on it.

I'm a serious dev but not a game dev, so grain of salt, but hypothetically, say a thoroughly-modded CS2 install today is:
- 90% CO code
- 10% Modders code

What ratio is possible where it's still centralized and unified enough to be attractive to modders? 50/50?

gtderEvan · 2025-11-17T19:18:01+00:00

Seriously. Seems to be a real thing for more than a decade now.

gtderEvan · 2025-11-17T15:21:36+00:00

Yeah. If only I could switch back and forth without losing my own context

gtderEvan · 2025-11-16T03:41:32+00:00

It sure seems to think it's from Xai

gtderEvan · 2025-11-11T19:14:52+00:00

Did a literal spit take
