Every single sample they posted is bad. None of them achieve the intended effect or goal of replacing an experienced photoshop edit. MIT doesn’t mean everything is news. Another university lab could have produced the same thing with the sam

It’s an arms race. You can still write cheats with computer vision and automated control input and have an unfair advantage, and that has nothing to do with client and server responsibility delegation. There are a lot of games that get this

I store information on my phone like my private thoughts, because I know that it’s an encrypted, secured device I always have with me. I wouldn’t store that information on paper — the best analogy is that it’s a backup of parts of my brain.

I was pretty skeptical when I heard that private citizens booked a flight on Falcon Heavy. When those plans got shelved and these popped up, I had a similar level of skepticism. I expected it to be some random celebrity that wanted to go on

No mobile device on the market runs at the same clock speed for any length of time. They’re always scaling down the clock speed for a variety of reasons (usually battery life and thermal management). If you ran at max speed all the time, yo

I think it's worse when you go from Kindle to a fully fledged tablet. iPad + Pencil seems like the best way to do this, far and above, and yet virtually no apps support markup with the Pencil. Lost opportunity, if you ask me.

I'm a really big fan of geotargeting these notices only to the EU. If the EU wants cookie notices, give the EU cookie notices. Don't give anyone else cookie notices, because they're garish and few people reasonably care.
