Yeah, but, when it comes to generating NSFW contents, it is illegal to distribute pornographic software in some countries, and doing so can lead to domain blockage and such (i.e. South Korea, believe or not). This is something you gotta u

CJK had abused people far before the west started abusing their own people with achievements. Karoshi first became an issue in 1980s. People overworked because they were expected to do so under the name of discipline and dedication. We all

AFAICT, the book is not really Eastern-specific. The author is a philosophy professor in Germany, and has authored philosophy books in German. He has his fair share of understanding in the western culture and society. Also, this book is fro

That's a far far future. The current AI simply can't reason with the design. It's all just 2D image manipulation, and the image you see might be physically impossible, let alone generating the fitting sewing pattern from a si

This is NOT compression. Almost all information gets lost. This is simply about replacing images with captions + image generator.

The whole discussion over "rolling release is stable" never gets concluded because people are not agreeing upon what they talk about. Here are the basic facts that the discussion should be based on: * "Stable" is not a b

This reminds me of mirroring an SSD array to a HDD! I believe this is what some college kids get their hands on, since many motherboards come with 2 NVMEs. NVME RAID0 is too dangerous and RAID 1 is too expensive, but, by pouring few hundred

Yes, but it's still true that the cost of forgetting to charge is just way too expensive (currently).

Well, you're being overly protective here. I think this problem should NOT be downplayed, because it can create a whole new industry in the future - automated charging or self charging or whatever. It's simply that the BEV market

You can if you curate the list. Curating requires collecting and processing information, which often can be expensive.

It's funny that the only technical downside - recharging time - is quite critical to the people's life style. Solves all the problem but fails at one mundane problem.

I mean the ones in the unstable branch. Stable Rust is just good enough, as it can perfectly reproduce the C-like coding experience with added type safety.

I think it's because the underlying(?) TTS can't really portrait how the narrator speaks, which is very exaggerating and highly varying in tempo. The key idea of the app should be that we can easily transform "voice AND emoti

Out-of-topic, but it's funny how some pro-Rust comments actually read like pro-Haskell comments. Haskell has more extensive and thorough typing than Rust, so anything good about `trait` is even better in Haskell. You just have to "

TBH, those extensions are biased enough that it's difficult to integrate them into the company-wide workflow. It works okay-ish for personal uses, but still feels kinda awkward.

Yeah, real shame. Nikon's market hardly overlaps with RED's, and never will. This is not "free market competition", but a cheap attempt to suck out money from other companies. Probably the company has already reached the

I think it's quite easy to distinguish b/w DALL-E and human. The biggest problem w/ current DALL-E is that it's really really bad at details, unless it's a stereotypical one. DALL-E delivers pretty good impression
