But isn't that also exactly why the whole effort is a bit futile? If it takes this much effort to detect that an event is even happening, you end up describing something that only really happens in a lab situation and has not much rele

To me the biggest problem of the Web is that there still isn't a standardized way to publish on it. Just uploading files to your server isn't enough when your audience has no easy means to find out that it happened. That's wh

That has nothing to do with untrusted code, but with how well programs are isolated from each other . You don't have to restrict the user for that. Take the Web, we all run untrusted programs 24/7 there, every single snipped of J

This works too: https://github.com/<org>/<repo>/archive/HEAD.zip Gives a HEAD.zip that contains a "<repo>-<sha1>/" folder and the latest source.

Sometimes people don't use git to get the source. The "Download ZIP" function on Github for example includes no version number at all as far as I can tell, only the branch name in the filename. For GitLab there there exist a

20 years ago you still had to go and search if you wanted to see something. Now you have endless streams of recommendations that do the thinking for you. All you got to do now is watch and consume. And of course 20 years ago we didn't

Dall-E, like most AI stuff, doesn't have a memory, so you can't just refer to an earlier image. Each time you run it, it starts from scratch. You might be able to (ab)use in-painting for this, i.e. have a comic panel with two imag

Same as in any other classic FPS, the N64 has four C-buttons for directional control in addition to the stick. By default however it uses a Doom1/Duke3D-style control scheme, not a modern one, meaning the stick doing forward/backw

Yep, that's the truly impressive part with DALL-E2. If you take those sentences and paste them into Google Images, the results will always be much worse. Even if you find a query for which there do exist closely matching images, they w

Also when it comes to faces, that's intentional. Trying to generate realistic looking humans is explicitly forbidden, just like politics, violence, nudity and other stuff. Images matching those topics are likely filtered out of the tra

For cookies to have a cost they would need to be visible first. Brave does that right, by not only blocking lots of them out of the box, but also by showing you how many it blocked straight in the address bar, without any extra clicks. Fire

The browser is the one who stores and sends cookies. It would be trivial to make that action explicit and only at the users request. That wouldn't even be a new feature, that used to be how things worked 20 years ago. Lynx is however
