I'm very interested as an e-ink enjoyer, as the most capable tablets run Android, mainly the Boox ones. Sure there's the PineNote that runs ordinary Debian but I hear it's not quite there yet usability-wise, and it doesn

Very cool, like <input type="password"> except with whitespace so you retain a vague sense of the wordshapes :) I could honestly see myself using this in a coffeeshop for the compromise between privacy and feedback.

I tried to make the softphone approach work but I was unreachable far too often when Android decided to kill whichever softphone app I tried. And if it did keep running, I'm pretty sure it consumed decently more energy than a dedicated

Yeah I dug up the relevant function because I was curious how one would solve this. return (r * 1000 + g * 100 + b * 10 + a * 255) / 10000; https://github.com/Stanko/monorail/blob/2da287a4e822705

Cool stuff! Flattening things like colours into a 1D value is an interesting challenge here. How did you decide to weigh the R channel an order of magnitude higher than G and so on? I might've tried working with HSV for instance, since

It's a dream of mine to learn enough stoneworking to turn a pair of stones from a local river into a mortar and pestle, ideally without contracting silicosis at the same time. Much cooler than shipping granite mined and cut on the othe

Note that this also applies to GPT models on the API > That risk extended to users of ChatGPT Free, Plus, and Pro, as well as users of OpenAI’s application programming interface (API), OpenAI said. This seems very bad for their business.

"Duolingo is Butter for Learning" because it prioritizes gamification and engagement over actual learning outcomes. Being joyful to use doesn't equate to effectiveness.

Isn't this the attention mechanism, the reason we're using transformers for these things? Maybe not greater resolution per se, but focusing on a region with greater neural connectivity

Personally I'm curious about training a model to predict Cyrillic or Greek letterforms from Latin ones to boost multilingual coverage. I'm sure there are some learnable relationships there like Я <=> R or И <=> H.
