I'm one of the creators of Skyplane. Skyplane can migrate large datasets between cloud regions at 10s of Gbps while compressing data to reduce egress fees. Happy to chime in!

Congrats on the launch! I had a similar idea once a few years back but failed to materialize it. You might want to consider other cloud providers like Sushi Cloud to get costs even lower. Happy to do an intro if it seems interesting.


Or to leverage cheaper compute/energy when it’s available. https://www.crusoecloud.com/features/


This link was from OpenReview which must be anonymous (double blind). The full author list is on the updated link at: https://dreamfusion3d.github.io


Aware of the link, though you have not provided any clarification for why there are two links; strikes me as odd if authors are trying to post it anonymously that simple Google finds authors names.


I believe ICLR guidelines require the authors to submit papers and any supplementary materials (including links to webpages, videos, etc) without identifying information, but authors are not barred from public announcements on other forums. IIUC, the idea behind this policy was originally to accommodate author freedom to engage in common practices such as simultaneous submission to arxiv (which identifies the authors). To respect the double blind spirit of review, reviewers are asked not to actively search the web in attempt identify the authors. In the past, when social media promotion was less common, it was reasonably likely that reviewers would follow this guidance and would not have seen the arxiv submission, preserving the double blind nature of review in most cases. However, the use of social media in academia has radically changed in recent years, as more researchers use social media to keep up with the latest advancements, so promotion of papers in submission on platforms like Twitter can offer significant advantages to authors.

So, authors today often submit anonymously following the conference guidelines, but simultaneously post publicly elsewhere, walking a fine line as not to overstep the conference policies. This appears to be the case for this submission. Note, recently, some conferences, such as CVPR, have started to institute new policies forbidding social media promotion until acceptance, as they adapt to the changing landscape of social media promotion. If this were a CVPR submission, the authors would not be allowed to tweet publicly about their work yet, nor have the version of the webpage with their names visible.


Thanks, appreciate explanation - maybe it’s me, but found it odd, didn’t know what to make of it. Maybe it’s me, but if there not against authors posting with their identity public elsewhere, they should just have a button you’re able to click, a call warning, and then get to see the authors.

@dang The link should be updated to https://dreamfusion3d.github.io


Correct link with full demo: https://dreamfusion3d.github.io/


That link also has a link to the authors and the paper preprint.


Changed now. Thanks!


Not OP, but I researched scalable anomaly detection systems for power-generating assets. We collaborated with a large industrial engine manufacturer on this work. https://arxiv.org/abs/1701.07500. The key challenge customers encountered was the prevalence of false alarms that led to unnecessary service.


Woah this is awesome. How did you guys resolve the false alarm issue wrt power plants?


Robinhood makes money on execution (through exchange maker-taker fees [1] and reselling order flow to hedge funds or market makers).

It's in their best interest to promote more volume to increase revenue. They're making money of each and every trade.

[1] for example https://www.nasdaqtrader.com/Trader.aspx?id=bx_pricing


Ah, I didn't know they made money off that part of it. I suppose you give up some privacy/data when they resell your order, similar to using Facebook or Google. It's a slick business model, I didn't even realize it.

Your also giving up better trade execution ie paying more for shares. Robinhood is good for getting your feet wet but people should switch brokers as soon as possible.


Why not just get a vanguard / schwab / fidelity account then and buy their no fee ETFs?


If all your doing is passive investing then yes a Vanguard account would be ideal. I'm not sure on the fees for chwab and fidelity so I can't comment on those. For my passive investments I use a Vanguard account for my trading(active investing) I use Interactive Brokers.


Yeah, I plan on moving my shares to a broker with the nice features like DRIP/partial share purchases and so on once I accumulate enough capital to make the $5 trade fees worth it.


If you can handle the minimum amount to open an account(10K) Interactive Brokers is awesome, Commissions are usually just a $1 in and out. If your under 25 then it's 3K to open an account.


IB is good if you trade enough to make the monthly fee worth it.

But I execute maybe, 4 trades per year. E-Trade / Ameritrade / Scottrade are good enough, and offer me Options trading and other useful features.

Like a website, so I can trade on a computer properly damn it.


> IB is good if you trade enough to make the monthly fee worth it.

Yea valid point. I make 2 to 4 trades a week so IB makes sense for me. Plus I signed up before I was 25 so my monthly fees are still only $3 instead of $12. Plus I do enough trades that my monthly fees are waived.


that's bullshit, sorry. If they sell your order to a firm with good execution, you could very well get a much better price than from a firm that doesn't sell your order flow.


that's a bizarre complaint for a brokerage. Every brokerage exists to make money on trades.


Not saying it's bad, I just wanted to note that the VCs don't need to subsidize your trades on Robinhood.

It used to be a mixed bag - it's good to hear that they've improved their attitude to battery issues.

I remember taking a bulging in-warranty battery for a white unibody-era Macbook into the Valley Fair Apple Store and being told that it was my fault the battery was damaged. Genius bar wanted to charge for a battery swap and wouldn't dispose the battery for me if I didn't pay for the swap.
