Hi, I've helped several "startups" get off the ground, because I'm good at creating rapid prototypes that scale to production, and I like solving big problems, with contributions based on informed imagination. I've

«In one famous example of the flaws of fMRIs [Harris' PHd topic], researchers used a dead salmon as their fMRI subject. The salmon was shown a series of images of various human social situations, designed to evoke an emotional response

They claim PCIe4.0 makes it irrelevant, but that doesn't really make sense and it's most likely the case they want to charge a fortune for their high-memory options.

I mean semantic web is designed to turn the entire web into a semantic database. You could treat "your" parts of the web as DSLs in the simplest possible RDF/linked data and then link it to semantic web concepts (and other pe

Your approach doesn't apply to the semantic web. Apples and oranges. Two dimensional non-tree graph are neat but in most cases at best a debugging tool or whirlygig.

Hmm I wonder if that's also because many more people are involved, which is a good thing. After all, the Web started as a research system, the more it returns to that the better. Intuitively I'd think LLMs/other algos could h

I don't think it will be rendered valueless, but it shouldn't be completely exclusive. Basically as an extension of today's search model (which is a large part of what LLMs are, along with a grab-bag of useful ML algorithms),

That's not as true as it used to be, and there are still plenty of useful open journals/open science publications, though proper attribution would often be important. [edit] you could pretty much say that on principle, any signifi

The solution could be great. I really don't like the way culture always goes to the same tropes, calling any potential innovation "out of Star Trek" (with attendant distorted expectations), right down to expecting an interfac

You could set up screen sharing for any system that supports it, and on another system receive the stream and use an LLM(s) to run object ("cat, piano") and text detection on images and sound. Mac silicon can do that, but it'

I haven't seen this config mentioned yet, but I have two displays; a LG SDQHD 28" 8:9 2560x2880 on the left, and a LG 49" 21:9 55120x2160 ultrawide curved on the right, with a slight angle joining them in a "hinge."

Oh I see. I thought they were giving general advice but that makes sense. The person could have used ChatGPT to write it for them, if language was an issue or they were in a really bad mood after the experience. I do that sometimes. Remembe

This doesn't include my "favourite," putting a heading for accessibility at a -10000 position, so screen readers would read it, but it didn't render on the screen.

I use Kiwi Browser. It is an open source fork of Chrome for Android that allows installing any extension. This is better than Chrome, which allows no extensions, and Firefox, which will only offer 200 or so. It also has its own ad blocking

I have used a keyed email address scheme since the mid 1990s (me_context@domain.org). 99% of the email I get now is sent to the same 5 addresses, in particular me_boingboing, me_linkedin. Those addresses were never on a web page. The keyed
