I'm guessing they mean something like icons, or colour-coded tiny-font words with borders "lake", "city", "village" etc, on each title, to be able to tell at a glance what the different places are without

We'e seeing this one, but it contains no relevant content, so wouldn't be surprising if it was soon flagged. EDIT: here's what appears to be the intended comment, it's about surveillance and is interesting: https:/

Yes, that's what I meant - but looking through it it's pretty straightforward, so maybe it's not totally necessary. Helpful for beginners though, and also faster for anyone to learn the parts of the codebase that are importan

This is a nice dev diary describing the various API's used and how the site was put together. Be great if it included more detail (ie, code!).

What I mean is when a particle travels back in time, the universe branches forward in parallel, from that particle, at the instant it arrives. This resolves all paradoxes as the independently instantiated time streams can't interact. I

GGML is essentially a library of lego pieces that can be put together to work with many LLM or other types of ML models. Meta's leaked model is one for which GGML has been applied to for fast, local inference.

Maybe it's emptier than it should be because that's how the universe is always made to appear to emergent civilisations at the dangerous and volatile point of evolution we presently find ourselves at?

Maybe every instance of time travel the universe splits in two, to prevent all the causal loop paradoxes etc? Ie, time is always a tree branching, and traveling back in time doesn't change that?

Because commercial pilots are in control of aircraft flying over densely populated areas, and often responsible for the lives of hundreds on board. A navy pilot typically just has the expensive aircraft and is somewhat expected to be crazy.

May also be worth mentioning - UAE's Falcon, which apparently performs well (leads?). Falcon recently had its royalty-based commercial license modified to be fully open for free private and commercial use, via Apache 2.0: https:/

The SEC issues fines. To them it's taking a cut, to Binance etc, it's operating expenses. These "enforcements" are more like protection money paid to gangsters. The SEC could have created clarity a decade ago. It's

You're comparing training a model from scratch in ML, to the equivalent of model fine-tuning in humans. It's unfair and incorrect. Eg, no human can drive without first learning to operate their limbs, recognise shapes etc. The GP

With enough time, you can boot Linux with a pencil and paper. The amount of time needs to be practical, in order to be able to be useful to do stuff. That is maybe what is expected from "runs". Eg, a device can't run Doom if

Roughly twice the cost an identically-sized RP2040 Pico (both 51mm x 21mm), but 6x clock, with 250x the RAM, miniSD slot, USB-C and optional ethernet connect. Freaking awesome. (And to show my clock working here: a stock RP2040 is two cores

Just put the count on a hover tooltip - everyones happy, no size limitation, still serves as a deterrent (dubious as it may be to try incite suchlike on users who may have shelled out enough for a machine that can handle hundreds of tabs).

Preferring a storage medium for its reliability regardless of the amount of writes it endures is utility - I could see that might be preferable to SSD in some specific case. Maybe there are other upsides, eg, it's often much cheaper. R
