The name probably comes from Twitch culture, the idea of a “clipchamp” being someone who cut a clip of a stream in just the right way (often intentionally cutting out context to make a moment more funny). The opposite is a “clipchimp”, when

What’s the problem with it? Seems like a nice gesture. Land acknowledgments are quite common these days.

There don’t have to be known safety concerns. At a certain point they can decide that their citizens have been inconvenienced enough by issues with that specific plane.

It doesn’t have to be about a safety concern, just about their citizens being inconvenienced over and over.

They seem to be designing it to launch with their special Fortnite version of the Unreal Editor which is supposed to launch sometime this year.

It looks like Teenage Engineering made a keyboard… which is not really a bad thing.

by MattRix 4y ago
Agreed. The rest of the keyboard looks great, the numbers look too large and childish.

Yeah it really feels like we’ve moved backwards in some dimensions since the era of Flash.

It doesn’t matter how many bad Steam games there are, because their algorithms prevent you from ever seeing the vast majority of games on the platform. The same is true for videos on youtube and songs on spotify, you won’t find the really l

With Dall-E you can already do selective inpainting to replace areas of an existing image. It’s incredibly powerful.

A huge amount of housing issues across North America are due to zoning issues, with areas that don’t allow high density housing to be built (or where the residents fight fiercely against it). You don’t need to deal with most of the other pr

Yes, a ton of new homes need to be built, but also a lot of the existing homes are empty. The US has a vacancy rate of somewhere near 10%.

In no other industry/medium do you see nearly as much survivorship bias as in discussion around videogames. I’ve always liked to think of it as a lottery, but where there are a ton of things you can do to buy yourself more tickets. Doi

I had horrible withdrawal effects coming off lexapro/escitalopram, it was literally the worst experience of my life. I spent a month with maxed-out anxiety, feeling like I was going to die any moment, waking up at night with electric s

I don’t think most of the comparison images so far have really demonstrated the difference in quality and resolution, but this gif does: https://twitter.com/jason4short/status/1546633395643432961?s...

It is not hard to think of examples where steelmanning would not be worthwhile, such as when someone thinks an entire group of people is inferior. And unfortunately these types of views underly a surprisingly large number of political opini

You can watch user videos of it in action on YouTube. It improves with (nearly) every patch and often requires minimal or no user interventions. It still sometimes makes very bad mistakes though so I don’t think it’s as close as the previou

They still have a lot of human curators (Elon said they have over 1500 in a recent interview). I imagine that these cuts are for some category of labeling that has become redundant.

by MattRix 4y ago
These are not cuts because they are struggling, they are cuts for efficiency. From what I understand they will be hiring enough people over the next few months to make up for their recent cuts.

You could also just pay for YouTube premium. I subscribed about a year ago and I don’t regret it.

In certain circumstances you are much more likely to be meeting with wealthy people. In those cases, perhaps clothing that gives a bad impression on average will actually give a good impression.

Sounds like a job for GPT-3. The author writes the long form version of each section and then GPT writes the simpler versions.

It’s a bit ironic that you hyperbolicly accused him of hyperbole. He never says that you can’t do those things, he just says you can’t do them very easily.

Would you say the most skilled person always wins every MMA fight? Would you say there has never been a fight between two fighters where one was more technical skilled or agile and the other was more physical or strong?
569.
by MattRix 4y ago
Again hyperbole with comments like “10x more skilled”. If you had a valid point to make, you wouldn’t need to fill your post with exaggeration. I don’t even think you realize you’re doing it. We both know the Alana has many physical disadva

Your description of the fight is so hyperbolic. It’s not nearly as lopsided as you imply. I have no doubt there are current women’s MMA athletes who could beat Alana. Also the amount of toxic transphobia in the comments on that video is pre
