As a French citizen, I find it unsurprising that the usual top comments here are all about numbers. Life expectancy going up, do your part, work work work. That people are angry is not about the damn numbers. It's about the attitude of

I could see IDEs for AI, where you manipulate ways to input prompts (natural Landis language, weighted keywords, audio..) and selection of methods (chatgpt, whatever model will come for diagrams, visual models, audio ones..). Then basically

I would argue the real luck was the depression lifting at a key moment in your life, and perhaps life circumstances that didn't stack up to reinforce it. I had a tough start in mine (likely starting in childhood with trauma), and that

That's great! I assume the hand capture (+ head position) doesn't give you enough to apply inverse kinematics reliably (i.e. better than VRchat), is that correct? It's a naive assumption on my part given that wrists aren'

From the repo: Why is this thing so slow? It took me five minutes to store a 400 line text file! Well, this is just an initial prototype, and don't worry, there's always Moore's law! So I'm guessing they are quite aware

I genuinely read the title as "always look down on London" and my French mind was as vindicated as it was puzzled by it. The article however is much more interesting and full of those little things that make living in old and beau

I tend to agree with you a lot, and find the process entirely terrifying. I've grown up with a history of being shut down and bullied when attempting to create (by teachers, peers, or mistakenly by family), and have as a result become

You made the right choice if you're still working at it. Staying on target is more important than the bad choices you might make - otherwise you'll end up like me and thousands others who are indecisive and consequently produce no

The article is great - a visual that explains SRS in one single graph near the top of the page is a great proof that the article is solid. But I also want to say: what a clean and enjoyable website!! Thank you for having shared this.

The typical answer for old behemoths: it was built because it was necessary to build it, and it won't change until a change is necessary too. Wanting that change is not enough, it has to become an almost mechanical constraint, and usua

Thanks for your article, it is very interesting. I don't necessarily see the difference between the very "slow" statistical feedback loop of cars and the equivalent in consciousness: what if a brain the size of a galaxy exist

I'm not up to date on J-pop/J-rock as of 2022 but things of past years like King Gnu's Hakujitsu or LiSa's First Take performance seem pretty decent as far as fairly popular music goes, and I'm sure I am missing a l
