I’ve stopped relying on offline downloads (on netflix) since upon crossing national boundaries, the offline content is deleted. As an expat who travels back to India once a blue moon (and has shitty internet back home), I now pirate any con

Sure, you could. How many people do? I don't. I could. But that doesn't solve my problem with Tox. I use IM apps to keep in touch with people in my social circle. I've been coercing a lot of my close friends to switch to Matr

I love it! A feedback: The use case is less than ideal. Its CSS. That shouldn't be a problem but its (i) its not the kind of syntax I'm used to reading, and (ii) its not a ligature heavy use case. As an instance, I'm given a

I’m really sorry to know this. And I’d like to apologise for not being able to convince some of my close friends to not vote the fascists in, in the last national elections.

I always think that these interactions should be modeled as: upvotes as ‘I want others to read this’, and downvote as ‘I don’t want others to read this’. I believe your intended behaviours (I like this or agree with this or find it interes

It might happen that folks downvote things even if they like it, just because its the only interaction possible. From what little I understand of content reception, the drive to interact triumphs the drive to curate/(give your opinion

Conzept looks really good! Are there some whitepapers (apart from the user guide) that I can peruse? Some information about the team? Is this an LOD based solution where we can plug in arbitrary KGs? Did you fork the UI from some existing K

DBPedia board has been faffing about regarding the new hyper-relational data model [0] and has come up with a bunch of hack-ish solutions (read: esoteric data models) to incorporate it. As far as I remember, there were dumps from 2018 with

This is objectively worse. Commercial journals need to be bygone. I feel that the publishing venues in the field of machine learning are a great example of non commercial, (relatively) transparent, open access publications. Look at ICLR, IC

Oh I didn't install (on purpose) the NVIDIA drivers in my computer this time around. Last time, the brightness control would stop working, and the GPU would run a 100% of the time my computer was on. Drained battery in about 45 minutes

I'm not sure if other OS's do this. If you cut something on Windows Explorer (files or folders), they get somewhat greyed out. If you then paste them somewhere, they move. If you don't -- as in, you restart the computer, cut

Amongst other gripes people have mentioned (and I agree with), here's another: cut. There does not seem to be a way to cut and paste a file/folder. The best I could figure out is to drag the icons, hold down the finger, and move t

I’m not denying that but its still not half as feature rich or intuitive to play as the PC version. It goes a long way towards enabling mobile players to play the game but just not far enough in my opinion.

I’m rather disappointed with the write-up. The way in which the author outlines these advances don’t really tell me what’s going on. I have some years of experience working with neural networks and I’m reasonably comfortable with the concep
