Thanks for the reply! I've just realized I assumed speech-to-text and text-to-speech were similarly complex and unincentivized toward open development. (I wanted to play around with augmenting speech-to-text for some time.) TIL. So how

I think I finally get it. The contemporary expression of "gender" is like an arrow that only ever points fully to the left or fully to the right. What an unhelpful oversimplification and bias. It's like a conveyor belt that c

It would be really cool to be able to hook into where words started and ended. Then you could add a background tone/frequency rising in pitch with indentation level (and maybe have no tone for the root level). Oh, if only speech engine

Ah, I see! Very cool. (And also cool to learn that domains showing parking pages can send/receive legitimate email. I would never have expected that!) It would make a lot of sense to translate to Japanese if the issue is Japan-specific

ooooh. Not what I was expecting. I somehow associated "find console" and "board bringup" with notions of signal analysis and 23 SMA connectors and "BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request" and "ARGH

Out of curiosity, what kinds of boards?

Reformatted, because very interesting: --- From my experience: - NVIDIA seems to have best balance of culture of competency, work satisfaction vs how well is run, although it is getting more bureaucratic as it grows - Google used to be good

So before Borgmon existed, the quota unit was basically an entire machine? No virtualization? Oh wait, this was probably 2008, VMWare had only just figured out JITed software virtualization a couple years prior. Makes a bit more sense now.

Right, but I get the impression that the firmware vies for space with the rest of / et al. Sooo that means the wear leveling had better be ahead of whatever lifetime writes you throw at the system, or...

Saudi Aramco is estimated to be worth $2t-$10t (it's privately held, so noone knows) and 35,000 of their computers got their MBRs and MFTs (extrapolating) nuked in a political sting operation in 2012. It's handwavily rumored the H

Morbid but curious question: when tolerance declines, does a de-rated dose (say, 100% of the body's safe mechanical limit) produce the same mental effect as the previous, now way higher dose would? IOW, does the tolerance affect the me

I've been pondering for a while if being at certain points on the bathtub curve of learning/integrating new things (the disorientation phase, the sense of no progress) may create exponential sensitivity to emotional stress (like b

Curiously the last photo on the site clearly shows an SMA footprint, but the photos only show unpopulated solder pads. I wonder if you can order the board with the SMA socket populated?

Aaaaa! What's the table name, and can I read it from Linux?

And but of course nobody's going to make the effort to internally test with super outdated installations (although a VM snapshot or two, or a new install, would've made it simple enough). Good point.

Windows NT (as a usable thing available to the naive general public) didn't exist before Microsoft built it, so it was technically correct to call it new technology technology. In the same vein, this is arguably new compression techn

Huh. I seriously need to graph the size vs price thing and figure out where the sweet spots are. I last did that sort of thing a few years ago, got completely out of the game. I just googled a bit and discovered 18TB drives are a thing and

I happened to check Amazon a few minutes ago while writing another comment and found 18TB drives seem to be hovering around US$350. 6*18=108TB (and US$2100), however , that does not account for redundancy. I recently learned the fun way th

An annoyingly broad answer, but: broadcast an opportunity in which you provide vetoed access to the server/instance holding the data (eg, with standard user accounts, private home directories and the data located read-only in a dir off
