An interview with CEO David Baszucki on Roblox's origin story, what's next for the gaming platform whose shares have risen about 200% in the past year, and more (Tim Fernholz/Sherwood News)

He didn’t set out to create a kids’ company. Roblox’s “Builderman” wound up with one anyway.
Founder and CEO David Baszucki tells us the origin story and what’s next for a company that has nearly tripled in stock price and caught a lot of controversy over the past year.

Between the "supply" charges, "delivery" charges, sales taxes, and system benefit charge, I calculate that my electricity (from Con Ed, in NYC) costs about 33.5 cents per kWh (plus roughly $30/mo basic service fee & tax surcharges).
Which is.. a lot. I calculate that my two (classic) CR boxes at 50W each cost about $25/mo to run 24/7, so switching to more efficient fans (PC fans or efficient hepa filter units) would pay for themselves reasonably quickly.

"So if ChatGPT destroys literacy and law, then ChatGPT is going to kill God. By this I don’t mean that the bearded guy in the sky is going to be found dead of a gunshot wound to the chest, but that monotheistic religion as we have traditionally understood it will not be able to function in a post-literacy regime."

WAFT: Warping-Alone Field Transforms for Optical Flow
We introduce Warping-Alone Field Transforms (WAFT), a simple and effective method for optical flow. WAFT is similar to RAFT but replaces cost volume with high-resolution warping, achieving better accuracy with lower memory cost. This design challenges the conventional wisdom that constructing cost volumes is necessary for strong performance. WAFT is a simple and flexible meta-architecture with minimal inductive biases and reliance on custom designs. Compared with existing methods, WAFT ranks 1s…

I’ve generally disliked South Park — not because it is rude and raunchy, but because it made it seem like being a cynical asshole is somehow brave and countercultural. It made the case that it’s OK to be carelessly hurtful as long as you hurt •everyone•. It tried to make a virtue out of disaffection. Its compulsion never to be caught actually •caring• about anything or anyone robbed it of its capacity to have insights or a moral center. It flirted with satire, but always ended up just being trolling.
But who knows? It feels like trolling the fascists might be what we need right now. Maybe the show finally has its moment.

I found the discus to be challenging because of the busy net in the background but you see people throwing can look like Greek statues so I want to give it another try
