@parmita That sentence is a subset of life, so that sentence is also meaningless then. We have a paradox now.

@roshanonline Don't confuse prototype with production.

@bubbleboi For any entity in the free* market capitalist society, technical problems are a subset of business problems. So are the people problems a subset of business problems. And so on. All problems are business problems.

Today, we laid the physics foundation for our ARC fusion power plant. ⚛️

With 5 deeply researched papers — validated by independent peer review and published in the Journal of Plasma Physics — we’ve shown we've nailed the scientific basics of producing copious amounts of fusion power.

The collective assessment from our 58 co-authors? This machine will work.

No scientific breakthroughs are required to bring this clean, secure, abundant source of energy to the grid. Here is how we're handling fusion's biggest challenges:

⚡ Powering the Grid: Using extremely strong magnets, ARC will confine the plasma long enough to generate 1.1 GW of fusion power. We'll convert that into 400 MW of continuous net electricity — enough to power ~280,000 average American homes.

🛡️ Handling Heat Exhaust: To control a superhot, unruly cloud of charged particles, we're utilizing proven methods to safely handle the heat exhaust that acts as a key practical constraint for tokamaks.

✅ Managing Disruptions: We aren't trying to build an operationally perfect machine. We are pragmatically designing ARC to safely handle disruptions and keep the plasma stable for top performance.

🏗️ Proving the Approach: We're building on decades of tokamak research and supercomputer simulations. And we're proving our approach right now with SPARC, the tokamak we are actively building in Massachusetts.

With our transparency, you don’t have to take our assertions on faith. We are really pushing fusion forward.

@NVIDIARobotics When can we expect Isaac Sim 6.0 stable to be released? Eagerly waiting for it.

[Vaibhav Wanere @vbwanere]

@MehdiHacks Link? Thank!

[Vaibhav Wanere @vbwanere]

@bowenwen_me @XianghuiXie With all due respect, please convey my message to the Isaac Sim team to release a stable 6.0 or at least let us know the release date.

I do use git as a Product Lifecycle Management tool for my CAD models, drawings, STLs, gcode files.
Legacy PLM tools are bloated but still being used because many Mechanical Engineers are afraid of CLI.

A LINUX KERNEL DEVELOPER PROVED THE THING YOU PUSH CODE TO IS SECRETLY A DATABASE THAT CAN VERSION ALMOST ANYTHING AND THAT MOST DEVS HAVE ONLY EVER TOUCHED A TENTH OF IT

42 minutes from Josh Triplett -- a longtime Linux kernel and Debian developer -- showing that Git is a general-purpose, tamper-evident versioning engine that just happens to be famous for code.

-> The moment it clicks, Git stops being "Where my code lives" and becomes what it really is underneath: a content-addressable store that can version almost anything -- your configs, your notes, your servers' state, entire datasets.

People run whole wikis on it. They version their entire machine's configuration with it. They ship websites by pushing to it. They track data too big to email. None of it is a hack -- it's the same handful of objects you already use for code, pointed somewhere new.

Treating Git as a code-only tool was never the ceiling -> it's a versioning engine for anything, and the people who see that automate what the rest of the team still does by hand. And as AI agents start spitting out not just code but configs, docs and data, the one system that can version and audit all of it at once is already sitting on your machine.

You learned five commands to survive. This is the talk that shows you were standing on top of a database the whole time.

It changes what you think the tool is even for.

@parmita "Parmita" means Perfection, end of the discussion. Happy birthday!!

@richa_lq I saw some people saying AGI is here.

[Vaibhav Wanere @vbwanere]

@bitsofspu using 9950X3D with 5070Ti, curious about this combo though.

@i2cjak What if the phone has USB PD? It takes care of voltage.

Robotics is Sense - Compute -Act - Repeat.

Simulation gives a starting point, but can never take us there.

[Paolo AI @paolodiprodi]

The robotics industry has a simulation addiction.
Sim-trained tool-use policies hit 5–15% on real hardware.
Teleoperation policies hit 60–75%. Same task.
There's a better way. New post 👇

@parmita @k_satyarthi Godspeed ✨

[Vaibhav Wanere @vbwanere]

@parmita @precigenetic Thanks.

[Vaibhav Wanere @vbwanere]

@parmita They will give you a Nobel as well. Around 2043.

[Vaibhav Wanere @vbwanere]

@krishnaraj_G97 @Oyemisty Yeah, and only 985 posts.
