Haha. My wife and I, we once had three switches to daylight saving time one spring. This was during a trip to the US. Once in NYC where we missed our train. Once in Arizona, we just arrived one hour "later" than planned. The last

Me! I got somewhat blindsided and I needed the service, so I complied. The alternative would be to show up in the cell operator shop and show the employee your ID. I find it even somewhat nice that I was able to register online at all. It&#

You need to do this several thousand times. Let's say you use your laptop 300 day a year and that you close the screen about 4 times a day. If the laptop is designed to withstand 2000 closes then your laptop will break after less than

Deep learning has two main deficiencies: 1. They depend on pre-existing data. In other words they might not create something new. 2. They need a lot of hand-holding for learning. Children have an innate instinct to learn, and deep learning

I would say it's a way of price segmentation. One example are loyalty cards with rebates and bonuses. Customer A pays less for the same product than customer B. Of course there's the difference that customer B has seat heating ena

I feel that the illustrations are still at least somewhat in the uncanny valley. I don't think that the quality is already there. What you see is only a subset. Many creations are really bad, creepy and unbalanced. I think this will ch
