It's somewhat impressive but it didn't do what he wanted it to. It didn't list temperatures, instead it listed weather descriptions. And to get it to do this he had to write a full template. We also don't get to see if

What can GPT-3 do that is useful? I can understand that it outputs text based on a prompt and some input but I don't understand how that can be leveraged to do useful things. I can ask it trivia questions but is it better than doing a

ARM assembly and GNU assembly for ARM are subtly different in terms of syntax. I think the labels and indenting is different but everything else is broadly the same. I can happily read either.

Objectively you can only hear through your cochlea. You can sense vibrations through your skin but that is very different to hearing yourself snore. My guess is that the author's ears were in such a position that it appeared to his bra

It isn't that weird that things funded by the taxpaper be accessible by the taxpayer for free. Governments fund lot of things that are inaccessible (military sites, intelligence dossiers, aid in other countries, space stations...)

Flight testing of a one third scale prototype will likely begin next year. Given they haven't even started manufacturing the full scale prototype it seems unlikely that they can get into service in 7 years. To give a recent example the

I thought that too. But in the "Statistical analyses" section it says: "the interpretation of our robust estimates goes beyond claiming mere correlations or associations." which when you read through the statistical anal

Yeah it doesn't look like they consulted a statistician when doing this research. It always amazes me how a paper like this can be 90% statistics based but non of the authors are statisticians. Without the proper statistical analysis i

The 802.11 standards have always allowed up to 32 bytes which can be filled with any data, it does not have to be in a particular encoding. In 802.11-2012 there is a separate tag SSIDEncoding which can be used to specify if these bytes are

Is there any evidence to suggest that more than 3 hours of interviews is actually beneficial? 7 hours of interview seems like overkill. I've never had more than a couple of hours of interview: an hour with the department head and anoth

I'd have to agree given the prior probability of finding a positive result only in the March 2019 sample. Extraordinary results need extraordinary proof.

Yes below 5g it's not that accurate but I've never seen a recipe demand precision like 1.3tsp so if anything you can get more accuracy with weight.

Expected this to be like the spacex docking simulator but its completely different and deals with more of the orbital mechanics rather than assuming that the acceleration due to gravity is constant.

Because most Europeans use weighing scales rather than volumetric measurements. When I'm baking I put the bowl on the scales and pour in the ingredients. When recipes say 1tbsp or 2tsp it gets me annoyed because if they had converted t

Which is true, but very few professionals would use a Micro four-thirds camera to take these type of photo over a DSLR.

Photography is one of those areas where devices don't go obsolete very quickly. With a good lens from 50 years ago I can still take an excellent photo on a digital camera from 15 years ago. Sure you won't have all the bells and wh

Security seems roughly equivalent, there is always a fallback method of authentication in case the user changes their device or forgets their password. Even biometrics on an iPhone can fall back to a 4 digit pin code. I agree there are adva

This isn't that revolutionary: LastPass already allows you to use biometric ID to authenticate and it works without any changes to the website.

In almost all cases adding is a valid approximation. Until you get into the 10s or 100s of milimorts range you can add them and the error will be less than 1%.

ELA does work when someone manipulates an existing JPEG. If you take a low quality JPEG, paste in part of a high quality JPEG and save in high quality you can easily tell which area has been modified. Performing ELA on the output JPEGs when
