The Only Reason I Travel With My VR Headset Is the One Thing Meta Needs to Focus on More: Fitness

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-29 04:00:03

I almost never travel with VR headsets, no matter how many times I've been told flying with a Vision Pro to watch movies is great, or how headsets can help you make a virtual computer desktop on the road. But I took one with me for my last three-week trip, and there was only one reason why: it was my fitness gear. I've been working on losing weight the last year, and increasing my exercise. VR workouts have become a part of my regimen, because they're motivating, they don't need a lot of equipm

Lego iMac G3 concept is unlikely to go anywhere, but it is very cute

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-10-29 05:34:45

I don't usually get too excited about user-submitted designs on the Lego Ideas website, especially when those ideas would require negotiating a license with another company—user-generated designs need to reach 10,000 supporters before Lego considers them for production, two pretty high bars to clear even without factoring in some other brand's conditions and requests. But I'm both intrigued and impressed by this Lego version of Apple's old Bondi Blue G3 iMac that has been making the rounds toda

Alibaba shares jump 6% in premarket trading as AI drives cloud unit acceleration

cnbc.com Arjun Kharpal 2025-10-29 09:06:07

Alibaba posted a better-than-expected bottom line in the June quarter fueled by accelerated sales at its cloud computing unit and a continued revival of its e-commerce business. Still, the Chinese giant's revenues came in under analyst forecasts. Alibaba's stock was up more than 6% in premarket trading in the U.S. after initially dipping.

Contrastive Representations for Temporal Reasoning

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-29 04:42:40

In classical AI, perception relies on learning spatial representations, while planning—temporal reasoning over action sequences—is typically achieved through search. We study whether such reasoning can instead emerge from representations that capture both spatial and temporal structure. We show that standard temporal contrastive learning, despite its popularity, often fails to capture temporal structure, due to reliance on spurious features. To address this, we introduce Contrastive Representati

Infamous ‘Erin Brockovich’ Toxin Polluted Air for Months After LA Fires

Though cleanup crews quickly cleared much of the debris, one alarming invisible impact lingered over the city for months, a new study suggests.
