I wonder how close the nearest match from the training data is. Was there a cheesecake that looked almost like these generated images?

Redux seems to have points 1-3. There is typically no schema though.

What an insane take. You obviously haven't visited anywhere outside London.

The most astonishing thing in the video was being able to get a mortgage from the council. I had no idea that was ever possible. Apparently local authorities once had 16% of the mortgage market.

What you are describing doesn't really compare. I'm sure it would do a reasonable job, but focused individual attention is really hard to replace. Most of what you've described happens at Oxbridge in addition to tutorials

The same way it works for video codecs which also send diffs over UDP. There are mechanisms to introduce redundancy in the stream, ask for retransmission, handle missing information.

Like looking at an old photograph of a child. Both older and younger at the same time.

Living underground tackles the one issue that no green revolution is going to fix - space. Above ground space is fixed and the population will continue to rise. We can build upwards or downwards but upwards blocks light, which is also a fix

How to build is still valuable. Imagine if we had a world full of people who knew "what to build" but not how to build it.

Used to do something similar with vsphere a while back. The servers took ages to get into the right state to test so much easier to just revert to snapshot to get a clean state.

If I want early feedback on something I create a draft PR and ask for comments. I can then let people consider my approach asynchronously, in their own time.

I've had managers be critical of candidates with poor eye contact before. I've had to remind them that not everyone is good at that. It certainly isn't required for being a software engineer.

They used to literally reuse the animation in older Disney films, just with different characters on top. You could send that information, the scene and the characters, in significantly fewer bits than it would take as video

You forgot to mention you no longer need to check your change at the end. You have a record of the transaction on your app and you were able to verify the amount before swiping.

Video compression algorithms are fascinating. Choosing the correct color space and reducing bit count because the human eye doesn't see color as well, using discrete cosine transform to "group together" the important parts of

I've had unit test suites in the past that failed to run the test if the test failed to compile. Those were the worst. I only found out because I roughly knew how many tests I expected to be run

A similar problem exists in modern video codecs. You want to update the decoder with diffs based on some shared state. The problem is you don't really have "actions" you can do. You can say "start with this key frame&quo
