Damn, Dall-E really lost its competitive edge overnight when Stable Diffusion was released. They dropped their prices across the board in response, but honestly I think it still isn't enough to save them. The magic of open-source compe

Just as photoshop became another tool to use in a designer's library, so to will it be with image generation (a la Stable Diffusion, DALL-E, etc.). There's no reason to think it'll be any different. Sure, the skillset will sh

In the end, isn't the answer relatively simple when phrased in terms of supply and demand? In by far the majority of these cities, the number of new units built pales in comparison to the number of new people moving to these cities, an

Honestly Lua is one of those languages that seems decently nice to use, fairly performant, and just makes me wonder why it hasn't been adopted for use more broadly in domains beyond just like being embedded in game engines. Am I missin

Honestly? I try not to think about the future because doing so brings wave upon wave of existential dread. Things aren't looking good, and it might be a bit of a hedonistic maxim but if thinking about it just makes me feel worse why sh

You're right in that the term Hellenes appears later, however it is worth noting that there was still some sense of collective identity, even that far back, as evidenced by the tribes coming together when facing external threats (e.g.

Something I always wondered: the Gamecube had an IBM PowerPC processor with a RISC instruction set. ARM is also a RISC instruction set. Is there some performance boost in running Dolphin on ARM-powered hardware, or is it more or less the sa

actually sorry to be pedantic but it's legomenon not logomenon, it's a participle of the verb λέγω, "to say", not λόγος (reason), which I'm assuming explains the mistake.

the framerate dropped in certain areas, it ran mostly consistently at 30fps but not perfectly consistently. These mods make it so that even in those areas it still maintains 30fps.

Funny ones I found in Greek (my native lang): "και έπεσε σκοτάδι" => "and darkness fell" (???) "είναι βρώμικα εδώ κάνε λίγο φασαρία" => "it's dirty here, make a fuss" But they're actua

This makes sense, OpenAI has been experimenting with human-in-the-loop type refinement systems for GPT-3 (see InstructGPT https://openai.com/blog/instruction-following/ ). It would make sense that they would use so

The way k-means is constructed is not based on distances. K-means minimizes within-cluster variance. If you look at the definition of variance, it is identical to the sum of squared Euclidean distances from the centroid

Its UI is similar to Worldle ( https://worldle.teuteuf.fr/ ), it might be implicitly assuming you're familiar with it already, in which case the "how close you are geographically" mechanism makes sense.

The US is still far more culturally homogenous than the EU, so this comparison falls kind of flat. Even if the US began as you say, with large cultural differences, it isn't really the case anymore. You could make the argument that t

For instantaneous time you would say ώρα, not χρόνος. "Τι ώρα είναι;" = what time is it, lit. "what is the hour". Χρόνος for me implies a span of time, not a single moment
