Massive performance improvement. This is a bit more of... technical post, but man do I love this stuff! Units navigate the map using a 'Navigation Mesh'. Before, I was using one giant nav mesh that spanned the entire map. The more objects that were placed (especially on a large map such as this 'RadarAttack' map designed by Syphotic | Steel Command), the larger the 'lag' would be after placement. You can see here that there is a massive frame drop and the navmesh doesnt update for almost 5 seconds. Now, there are a ton of tiny navmeshes that connect to one another, and together they cover the whole map. Now, when an object is placed, the navmesh will update instantly, because it no longer needs to parse through every object on the map (potentially thousands!!!). It only needs to parse through the objects that exist in the mini navmesh that the object was placed in (probably only 1-5 objects now!). Performance XP Boost +100!

🇯🇴 BREAKING: Jordan just got hit hard. Not a... warning. Not a near miss. Hit. The empire's allies are falling one by one. Bahrain. Qatar. UAE. Saudi. Now Jordan. Iran said nowhere was off limits. They meant it. Every country that hosted US bases. Every nation that stayed silent. Every flag that flew next to the empire. Now they're all on the map. And the map is burning.show more

The people dunking on SPECS aren't wrong - the... world's best social computer is being sold as a personal one you use alone in your room I always imagined walking around my city stumbling onto photos and art other people left behind. the invisible world we never get to see made visible in the places it matters most I realized that experience wasn't going to be there day one so over the weekend I built the map and bought a pair of SPECS to explore it this Fall Put yourself on the map today:show more

The architecture of this new world model is one... of the most interesting things I've seen lately: Let me first explain how most world models work: They predict and render one frame at a time. If you are navigating in one of these worlds, and you look left, the model draws whatever looks right in the moment. Every time you change your viewpoint, the model has to imagine what should be there again, so it's very common for these models to "forget" what's in the world. For example, if you put a toy on the table, look away, then look back, the toy might not be there anymore. Tripo AI is releasing its Project Eden model, which works very differently: The model builds the world first, and then renders it based on that map. That map holds the real state of the world: the geometry, every object, where things are, what's already happened. The picture you see on screen gets generated from the map. This architecture flips the whole thing. Now, you get the following: 1. The world stops forgetting. Leave, come back, and the toy is still on the table because it lives in the map, not in the last frame you saw. 2. You can edit the world, and those changes persist for anyone who enters later. 3. Multiple people and AI agents can coexist in the world and see it from different perspectives. This is early research, but it's looking really promising. They just raised nearly $200M across two rounds to build it out. Tripo will be at SIGGRAPH 2026 (July 19–23, Los Angeles Convention Center). If you work in 3D, embodied AI, simulation, or anything spatial, go connect with them there.show more

🚨 WARNING: MONDAY WILL BE THE WORST DAY OF... 2026!! Trump just OFFICIALLY confirmed that the US will invade Cuba IMMEDIATELY after finishing with Iran. Should I remind you what happened to the markets when the US started strikes on Iran? When markets start pricing that reality, this will NOT be just another headline. This is a geopolitical catalyst hitting an already fragile system. Stocks will dump. Crypto will dump. Risk will get hit all at once. This is no longer just about Iran. It is about expansion. And now the pressure just multiplied. Because when one conflict is still burning and the next target is already being named, markets stop pricing de-escalation. They start pricing EXPANSION. And expansion is where the real damage starts. That one fact explains a lot. This is NOT just a Cuba story. This is about the war map getting bigger, not smaller. There are only a few ways this goes from here, and they are NOT equal. - LIGHT SHOCK: it stays at the headline level, markets panic first, then stabilize if nothing follows. - HEAVIER SCENARIO: Cuba starts getting priced as the next pressure point, and regional risk starts spreading. - WORST CASE: markets start pricing a second front after Iran, and the whole risk picture changes again. That last one is the REAL danger. Because if Iran was phase one, Cuba becomes phase two. Now connect the dots. This does NOT stay political. It hits flows. It hits freight. It hits regional risk. It hits every market that was hoping Iran was the end of the story. That is why this matters so much. Because once markets stop pricing closure and start pricing expansion, the whole framework changes. Not a dip. Not a fake panic. A REAL warning that the geopolitical map is getting bigger again. I’ve studied macro for 10 years and I called almost every major market top, including the October BTC ATH. Follow and turn notifications on. I’ll post the warning BEFORE it hits the headlines.show more

I havent seen anyone post about it but one... thing that stood out to me the most from the MW4 briefing is how sick the Tactical Nuke animation is. Tactical Nuke is back but the animation is completely different. You call it in a small phone and then a buckle into a skyhook a plane grabs right before the nuke drops and you look back at the map getting nuked. You also flip the map off as you fly away Its one of the sickest things I saw. The video below is an example from MW3 of what i mean.show more

Gravity is a lie that was created to convince... you that you're stuck to a spinning waterball, flying millions of miles per hour through an empty void of nothingness. If an object is more dense than the surrounding medium, it moves down. If an object is less dense than the surrounding medium, it moves up. If the object and the medium are in equilibrium, then it remains static. The downward direction that density-dominant objects move toward is dictated by the electromagnetic torus field of the Earth. That is literally it. Everything you need to know about why things move up and down. You can go ahead and throw away your mossad fake science textbook now, to save yourself the lost IQ points and "space" fantasy stories.show more

Here’s a good example of a nav disengagement. It’s... disappointing to see these still happening in V14.3. This is a pretty straightforward setup. 3 lanes, clearly marked signage, large queue in the turning lane. Before I took over, FSD seemed completely unaware that it needed to stage the turn in the left lane, and would’ve missed the queue/tried to sneak in had I not taken over. You’d expect by now that it’d be able to gather context from the overhead signs, and sometimes it feels like it does, but I guess it really doesn’t and probably relies on map data.show more

You point at the mess and say "clean this."... That is the whole manual. Matic just shipped this. No app, no map to draw, no menu. The robot listens in more than 70 languages, watches where your hand points, and drives to that spot. Say "follow me" and it trails you into the next room. All of it runs on the robot itself, so it works with the WiFi off. Nine years of work for one thing: a machine you talk to like a dog that actually listens. Matic Robotsshow more

Jeff Bezos never has to work another day in... his life. He works like he needs the job. Ninety five percent of his time goes to AI. Meetings from 9 to 7. Technical papers after. His reason is one sentence. Bezos: “The world is so interesting right now. We’re in multiple golden ages at once.” Not one. Several. Running at the same time. For ten thousand years, humanity got one breakthrough per era. Fire. The wheel. The printing press. Electricity. A single leap. Then centuries of silence. That rhythm just broke. Artificial intelligence. Space. Gene editing. Robotics. Energy. All of it arriving inside the same ten years. Nothing in recorded history looks like this. So why does it feel like an ending instead of a beginning. Because the mind evolved to flinch at danger, not to measure it. Collapse feels loud. Progress feels like it belongs to someone else. Step back far enough and the truth turns almost violent. Every person who came before you lived and died in the world they were born into. Nothing moved. Nothing shifted. The map they were handed was the map they returned. You were dropped into the one decade where the whole thing changes at once. Everyone before you knew only the old world. Everyone after you will know only the new one. You are the only ones who will ever see both. Bezos: “There’s never been a more extraordinary moment to be alive.” That was not optimism. It was arithmetic. You were not born too late. You were born on the seam between two worlds. Almost no one alive will realize they are standing on it.show more

This extraordinary illustration, titled Wild World, is a hand-drawn... global map created by artist and cartographer Anton thomas. Instead of political borders and city names, the map highlights wildlife, placing animals in their native habitats across every continent and ocean. Over the course of three years, Thomas meticulously illustrated 1, 642 species using coloured pencil and pen. Each animal is positioned according to its natural range, transforming the familiar shape of the world into a celebration of biodiversity. By removing human boundaries and focusing on ecosystems, the map offers a powerful reminder that the planet is shared space. It invites us to see geography not just as nations and borders, but as living habitats that connect species across land and sea.show more

THE DEPTH MAP TRICK THAT FIXED DANCE ACCURACY IN... SEEDANCE 2.0 Feed the model a video of someone dancing and it tries to interpret everything- the person, the clothes, the lighting, the room, and somewhere in there, the movement. Feed it a depth map and there's nothing left to interpret but the motion. Most creators trying to transfer a dance to a character reference the source footage directly, then wonder why the choreography drifts. The problem isn't the model - it's that you handed it ten variables when you only wanted one. Here's the workflow 1. Lock the character reference in GPT Image 2 first -face, build, costume, so identity holds independently of whatever motion gets applied to it 2. Convert the source dance footage into a depth map instead of using the raw video -this strips out the original performer's appearance, clothing, and environment entirely 3. Feed the depth map as the motion reference and the character sheet as the identity reference- two separate inputs doing two separate jobs, not one input trying to do both 5. Let the depth map carry only spatial movement -the model receives body position and momentum with no competing information about who's moving or what they look like 6. Keep the character and motion inputs isolated throughout - the moment you mix appearance data into the motion reference, the model starts negotiating between two identities Why this works • Raw footage passes the model everything at once- performer, wardrobe, room, lighting -and the choreography competes with all of it for attention • A depth map is pure spatial information, so the only thing left to transfer is movement • Separating identity from motion means the character can stay locked while the dance stays accurate - normally you're trading one for the other • The accuracy gain isn't the model getting better, it's the model getting fewer decisions to make Use cases: ⁃ Dance and choreography transfer onto original characters ⁃ Motion capture-style workflows without motion capture ⁃ Any sequence where a specific movement needs to survive intact ⁃ Character showcase content built on existing performance footage The character sheet answers who's dancing. The depth map answers how - and keeping those two questions separate is the whole trick.show more

Three years ago, I pitched a business to this... Particular organization, and they told me they were not seeing the potential I was seeing. Just about an hour ago, I pitched the same business to the same particular organization, and the chairperson said, “Spirit, let’s get to work immediately on this; this is a big one.” What changed three years ago vs. today? ♟️Audience. My Point: There is an audience for everything. It requires wisdom to understand wisdom. The music is nothing if the audience is deaf. So why give up when you can just convince yourself that you are yet to be heard or seen by the right people? What was treated as useless three years ago is the same thing the same organization is saying: “This will put us on the map in the whole of Africa.” I made it possible. You too can.
