@robertgraham It was a Blue Origin patent even before that

@ChongZitaZhang Talk about disturbance rejection and robustness

[Mayank @MSewlia]

@chris_dalke What battery will power the motors? Have you also looked around hydrofoil boats?

[Mayank @MSewlia]

@ppitti Happened to me last night too. Checkout this video, it shows how building shortcut roads connecting larger roads actually increases travel time (the chokepoints you talk about). https://t.co/3h2jquhetb

@lukas_m_ziegler The work was done by @MojuZhao at the DRAGON lab, U of Tokyo.

Brightest minds in robotics are working on tasks like cleaning sink, folding laundry, making beds. Are these hard problems?Yes. But do they reflect lack of ambition and disconnect from real-world probs?Yes. Billions poured into chasing LLM moment for robotics that may never come

@LarsLindemann2 @AlexRobey23 @NicoloFabbro @BruceLeeIII what did ingvar see👀

[Mayank @MSewlia]

@animesh_garg What kind of planner here determines grasp approach and grasp timings? Is the grasp triggered only when the error to the desired pose is minimal or is it somehow encoded in the trajopt? And does cuRobo provide the grasp integration too?

[Mayank @MSewlia]

@ChongZitaZhang they prolly use adaptive control to estimate object dynamics. Just need to estimate the gravity/weight, other dynamical components are fairly minimal for objects

Always amazed by such demos. Does anyone know what kind of planning/coordination algorithms these drones use?

Go talk to anyone in the military and ask what they’re most afraid of.

Doesn’t matter what they do—infantry, aviation, navy, intel, special ops, logistics, or anything else.

They’ll all tell you it’s this.

I feel a huge sense of whiplash in robotics. On one hand, SOTA "generalist" policies don't generalize to even small shifts in initial conditions, distractors, etc. But there are 100s of millions pouring into startups w/ the same technology. Genuine question: what am I missing?

@sidhant @AmbKapoor Important to note @AmbKapoor was the Indian ambassador to Russia before the Secretary West appointment.

@philipcball Somewhat related I remember reading H.A. Bethe and V. Weisskopf arguing(in a Science article) on the contrary that solid state theory/biology/phenomenology hardly advances our understanding of the nature.

[Mayank @MSewlia]

@philipcball Philip Anderson, a Nobel laureate, coined the expression 'More is Different' to emphasize that even though particle physics is more fundamental, if we scale the system-from micro to macro-new laws emerge that are independent of actual structures that govern them at micro level.

@Beats1 with @CoreyTaylorRock . Loving GOTH music. Corey's journey as a Goth kid is amazing. Bold!

From History to Economics,Science to Literature,#Hardbound presents information in a concise and succinct manner. Love it @nbaschez @AppStore

[Mayank @MSewlia]

@nbaschez 5/5 from me! Amazing app, I get to learn something new and intriguing from every story! https://t.co/VGAhL8ihNF

[Nathan Baschez @nbaschez]

Whoa I just noticed that the @AppStore editors wrote us a nice review!

.@jonostrower Plenty of ships in the area, we'll soon have news of debris #MS804
