My edit would be reverted, and my talk page complaints would take a large amount of effort that likely ultimately goes nowhere when it's up against established editors. Instead I was telling you here that Wikipedia is not automatically

Local AI is a bit like wind parks. Everyone is in favor, except if they are in your own backyard. There was recently a huge outcry when Chrome shipped a local 4 GB AI model: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48019219 I h

There is also a correlation between walking pace and IQ. See e.g. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle...

You are assuming that the people who are arguing about "transients", or people like Avi Loeb, are also people who believe in flat earth or flying saucers.

by cubefox 6mo ago
I note that article seems quite biased against Loeb. For example, they cite USA Today strongly criticizing him, which is not a reputable source in this debate. Wikipedia also doesn't mention that many other astrophysicists think that h

I'm not aware of any similar claims. I thought the other two interstellar objects were not anomalous.

I don't know, he seems to be really smart. Maybe it's a good UFO theory for a change.

Gemini is certainly not behind Claude in terms of physics.

What about Avi Loeb's theory that 'Oumuamua is an UFO with a solar sail, which would explain its apparently unusually flat pancake-like shape?
551.
by cubefox 6mo ago
He doesn't seem to explain the recently popular "transients" though.
552.
by cubefox 6mo ago
A bit unfortunate that the terminology was changed from UFO to UAP. I liked UFO, most people knew what it meant, unlike UAP.

Maybe they should have sold the TurboGrafx-16 in the US only with the CD add-on already built in, and one or two CD games included to set off the hardware price somewhat. That would have made them stand out versus SNES/Genesis.

Yeah, ideally we would need the phi coefficient (aka MCC, the binary Pearson correlation), which can be calculated from a confusion matrix of yes/no LLM classifications for all kernel diffs. (Number of true positives, true negatives, f

Exactly, very few of the potentially affected cars were sold, but their headline makes it sound way worse than it is.

173 cars are being recalled. The Verge always tries to make anything remotely involving Musk sound as bad as possible.

Yet in modern computer games, modern graphics cards denoise a scene in real-time at 60 frames per second using machine learning models [1][2] while doing all the other rendering at the same time. Granted, that's ray tracing, and the re

No would be unhappy :(

Interesting, so it seems to be an issue with heavy compute or RAM requirements.

Would you have an example of an app which can photograph snow and rain?
562.
by cubefox 6mo ago
Yeah, but surely ML models would at least work better than analytic algorithms. After all, when looking at a noisy picture, our brain is pretty good at distinguishing detail from noise, so it's not clear to me why an ML model couldn&#x

It's strange that in the age of AI, denoisers are still so bad. It's basically impossible to photograph snowing in the winter because the denoiser will remove 90% of the snowflakes. Machine learning models are already used for den

This is the brand new Steam Controller though, not the old, discontinued one.

> The published image was likely an inked engraving from the original photograph. Unfortunately the site has no picture of the published newspaper print of the engraving of the photograph.

by cubefox 6mo ago
They say it was likely an "inked engraving", not a halftone. Presumably created by hand. So it is a bit debatable whether we should call it a photo or just an engraving, made from a photo reference. (We wouldn't call an oil p

Well, I don't see a "small range" at all. It's the opposite, extroverted pleople usually have better social skills than ones with social anxiety.
