Personal viewpoint alert: I deeply despise React, and have turned down job offers simply because they made that framework choice. Vue is so much more simple and concise, and its CSS markup in particular is just incredibly good. If anything,

For now! It would make sense for Apple to eventually own/manage a satellite fleet for global communication in the near future. The current carriers must be shitting their pants about this.

Divide that price by the # of users and the $300M can make sense...

Google is most interested in maintaining mind-share so that researchers don't jump ship. They could always monetize Imagen through Google Cloud but are concerned about risks (NSFW, legal issues, bias, etc.) so would rather wait for oth

Just what's in the square I believe. The only difference here is one of UI, since they give you a canvas in which to place your generations.

Their research is closed -- they don't release model weights, nor in most cases the training or model scripts. Certain things they release, just like any other for-profit research firm.

Are they non-profit? Does receiving $1b investment from a for-profit company still mean you can be non-profit?

That's still a race to the bottom if the price isn't going up.

It's an indication that OpenAI picked the wrong place to monetize. Picks and shovels are rapidly falling to zero margin.

A madlibs is more predictable, requires only one example, easy to understand for people with language issues or disabilities, more regulation-safe as it doesn't spit out unpredictable things. And the madlibs is free to use, for everyon

Still requires you to have an understanding of the concept, an understanding of how to prompt GPT-3, and how to verify the accuracy/veracity of the claims the AI model makes.

How is this different or more useful than providing a template with madlibs-style fill in the blanks?

Wow, OpenAI should be truly taught in business schools around the world as a case study in product marketing. Despite the dozens or hundreds of similar tools, models, colab notebooks, etc. created by a wide flourishing community, these two

The author doesn’t answer the question. If not this, then what will? Because as far as I can tell, we’re nowhere near extracting the full value of AI-generated protein structures. Why plant this flag and be wrong later if you have no real i

I couldn't find any recent news about this -- the most recent article I found is Oculus' blog post from June 2021. So I don't believe this particular tweet is providing cover for any recent decision, but the implication you a

This is far less neutral of a statistical inquiry than you might believe. What about natives who married foreigners? What about immigrants who are ethnically alike natives? What about second generation immigrants? One reality with data scie

Vite is a fast, efficient “bundler” for npm modules. You can run a dev environment and package code for complex, modern frameworks like svelte, vue 3, etc. It is not in itself a “framework” like React.

They recuperate the cost in economies of scale since they don't have to sell multiple models of seats.

My current BMW comes with both a Wi-Fi chip and a 3G chip, at no recurring cost. Seems quite feasible for me to connect to the car via app and pay on my phone.

Am I the only one that actually likes this idea? I live in Austin, where we only need heated seats like three months out of the year at most. On top of that, if I pay $999 for heated seats as an addon, that’s equivalent to 4.5 years of subs

What matters is the movement of prices over time. So if one stock was 20% higher in price than another yesterday, and today they're the same, then that's a big signal. We aren't interested in parity for the sake of parity its

Hm I took it under someone else so I’m not sure what it’s like these days. Sad that it has such a reputation.. I was able to ace the course and transfer into EECS my freshman year, so things probably have gotten much harder in the last ten

I’d recommend CS 61a/b/c from UC Berkeley. I think it’s available online as well. The reason I like these three courses is that they cover the three key aspects of computing — programming, data structures, and machine structures.

Converting forest to mass farmland isn’t trivial. A lot of these forests are actually wetlands and peatlands that take lots of time and work to convert.

This is how I have always thought of the geopolitics of climate change, that Russia would have a massive advantage. Then I did some research on it, and it turns out that it’s not exactly true. The currently fertile land in Russia would dese

I always understood the BB8 saga as Disney looking for a toy company to work with then designing a movie character that fit into the company’s capabilities. So it wasn’t luck as much as a single large enterprise contract that swallowed any
