The space between
Consciousnesses unseen
Synapses sparkling
In realities darkening
Neural pathways illuminating
By tongues undulating
Do not become blind by lies that would bind
Emerge from the Immerse
Architects of the Metaverse

We've been teasing the VR Multiplayer template for a hot minute now...

This template is a labor of love by the XR Authoring team at Unity, and ties together XRI 3.0, with OpenXR and all of Unity's mp services (ngo, lobby, relay, vivox..)

Well... it's here! Grab it on the hub

Johnson will recognize legendary human computer Dorothy Vaughan and the women of Apollo with activities marking their achievements, including a renaming and ribbon-cutting ceremony at our center’s “Building 12,” on Friday, July 19, the eve of the 55th anniversary of the Apollo 11 Moon landing. https://t.co/V6dGn9upvk

I have been dragged into two court cases where the FTC sued Meta over acquiring tiny VR companies, but I didn’t realize the breadth of the issue — big tech has significantly ramped down acquisitions across the board, which is bad for startups.

Founders have been pushed away from IPOs for a long time, and now acquisition exits are being curtailed.

The ideological position is that the FTC wants startups to stay independent and compete with the existing big tech companies, but an awful lot of tech dynamism is due to half-decade pushes that end in acquisitions.

I had a great conversation with @adamgordonbell about the organizational challenges with creating #PowerShell.
We go into a number of stories that I've never discussed publicly.
Adam did a great job organizing the content.

Combining artist-centric 3d tools with Gen Ai is an incredible storytelling tool.

The main scene here was made in Dreams on my PS5 and enhanced with ai. Stick around for the timelapse.

I've posted this a while ago in an older version.. This one is updated with Luma Dream and Runway Gen-3.

Great post 😺

[near @nearcyan]

personality basins are a mental model i use to think about people (and myself) over time

mostly a simple analogy of people as RL agents, but i find it interesting and useful

short post on it here: https://t.co/5XCkBW2KHg

[Ken Shirriff @kenshirriff]

Intel's Pentium processor (1993) was a big jump in processor performance, starting a brand that lasted until 2023. But what's inside the Pentium chip? How did Intel organize its 3.3 million transistors? Let's take a look inside and see the chip's "standard cells". 1/21

@nickfloats 💯
in chasing patterns I use many different techniques although my favourite is multiprompting with negative weights.
