Bought a car via carwoo back when it was in business. The service let you message dealership salespeople and get quotes back. I met the guy that sold me my car for about 15 seconds total in the entire process. By far the swiftest and best

I believe part of the problem is they went with 24 GB gaming cards a couple years ago and the need for that didn't materialize. Hence, cold feet for launching with 48 GB because there still isn't a need for more than 12 GB and 48

I suspect they also highlight RT performance (and AI acceleration which is more-so focused on a different market than these gaming cards) because it is their key differentiator with competitors. Most upper market cards can already run most

Today is a gaming product announcement and I'm not sure that games have a need even beyond 12 GB today. I suspect that the 4090 price not budging much is telling as far as what ram amount demand has been focused on for games. I assum

I was very happy to see this feature announced! I turned it on immediately and so far it has had little negative impact on my life. Some apps like Gmail will warn you that Lockdown mode is activated and that it will impact your experience b

Ahhh, container queries... here at last. Passkeys look very interesting as well. What kind of adoption do people expect passkeys to get? I had read that it was a general standard rather than Apple specific. I've gotten used to pass

> The take-away here is that steps above ~60 do nothing to the image, you're just burning gpu cycles doing nothing. I would expect both the scheduler and prompt in-use to have a significant effect on this.

A colab notebook shared on discord has some interesting exploration of this https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1dlgggNa5Mz8sEAGU0wF... Caveat: While I believe there's nothing nefarious about this notebook...

DALL-E as it stands perhaps not. However, Stable Diffusion's img2img is going to absolutely blow this person's mind... and it's just the beginning.

Most devs that had apple’s touch bar keyboard remapped caps to escape. I enjoyed that change so much that I did it everywhere. Voila, a useful key within easier reach… especially for vim.

Nice work! Possibly an alternative to TinyMCE. I can imagine using this in a variety of places that today I mostly provide a simple text box. The language component in particular is very powerful.

The NY Times Crossword archives past puzzles and it really helped me improve at Crosswords in general. The archive dates back over a decade and there are certainly days that I just really want to do a bunch of crosswords. I suspect this co

The particular attack is very specific and not really relevant to the implication of the last line in this comment. "One unexpected facet of the attack is that it uses genus 2 curves to attack elliptic curves (which are genus 1 curves)

I suspect this is where an API and additional cost reductions will move the needle even before we improve the models themselves (which seems to be coming at a rapid pace right now). I can see a scenario like this working well in the future

Classically, us-east-1 received most of the hate given its immense size (it used to be several times larger than any other) and status as the first large aws data center. It also seemed to launch new aws features first but that may have be

Additionally, wherever it classically falls over (such as currently for realistic human faces), there will be second pass models that both detect and replace all the faces with realistic ones. People are already using models that alter eye

There has been trouble with generating life-like eyes but a second pass with a model tuned around making realistic faces has been very successful at fixing that.

You can obtain any size by using the source image with the masking feature. Take the original and shift it then mask out part of the scene and re-run. Sort of like a patchwork quilt, it will build variations of the masked areas with each

I suspect you simply need to use it more with a lot more variation in your prompts. In particular, it takes style direction and some other modifiers to really get rolling. Run at least a few hundred prompts with this in mind. Most will b
