Wholeheartedly agree. Gnome in particular I have been very disappointed/baffled by in the past few years. Killing off desktop icons, system tray/status icons, pushing out global menu bars. Not to mention the way they handle HiDPI

Interestingly I don’t have issues with other nightshades just tomatoes - no autoimmune issues (unless minor seasonal allergies count)

Not really, I eat a lots of potatoes and enjoy eggplant now and again without issue

No other foods really, no food allergies to my knowledge. I do have minor seasonal allergies to ragweed pollen though.

I can’t eat tomatoes at all - not sure why - I love their flavor but shortly after eating them my entire digestive system hits the panic button. It doesn’t happen with other foods (at least those I eat). I tend to just avoid them now. Edit:

I’m still personally seeing quite a bit better performance on my old laptop with a dedicated gpu in Unity 21.2 - but the power draw is much much lower (consequently better battery life) on the Mac side which definitely has its place.

That seems like a massive privacy issue, no? I don't think any major email provider lets usernames recycle under any circumstances.

>A C&D letter is not itself evidence of anything. I didn't mean to suggest it was. It is still surprisingly hostile/corporate behavior from a company that markets itself as an anti-authoritarian actor.

While i think most of this is sensationalist, there are a couple valid crtiques here. More interesting IMO is this cease and desist letter they have sent. That surprises me.

Is it weird if I feel like my brain is completely useless for the first 4 hours of the day, I feel like my concentration gets better the longer the day goes - exercise definitely does it for me too.

Agreed, I often agree with EFF and I love what IA does typically but this was a terrible terrible decision. IMO even in a world with improved copyright laws the extent of what they did shouldnt even be allowed.

That is on a extremely small network (from a 1998 paper) running on an extremely small dataset of small images (28px by 28px grayscale images) and they are comparing the ms per step which is going to vary dramatically. Not only that they do

Does anyone have resources for finding larger meteorites? The rooftop small ones are cool but are there ways to track larger ones?

Cat ownership is one of the least likely ways to become infected with toxoplasmosis - far more likely is contact with undercooked meat. In fact most studies suggest it is not an important risk factor at all. https://www.bmj.com&#

I'm not sure an opinion piece in the nyt qualifies as evidence but that same analysis classified tons of other liberal parties as right wing (uk, switzerland etc) which seems more like they have a definitions problem due to a complete

> The "left" that has power in the US (establishment dems) barely qualify as being left at all So when the left does something you dont like, they must not be left? Smells of no true scottsman to me.

Memory != Speed You could throw a TB of memory in something and it won't get any faster or be of any use for 99.99% of use cases. Large ML architectures don't need more memory, they need distributed processing. Ignoring memory req

Definitely impressive in terms of power efficiency if Apples benchmarks (vague as they are) come close to accurate. Comparing the few video benchmarks we are seeing from the M1Max to leading Nvidia cards I'm still seeing about 3-5x the

Isnt it just unfounded speculation that it is for pr? To me it makes sense for the same reasons google did it.

Do any deep learning frameworks even have metal support? I could see inference working well on these laptops but they lack so much of the specialized hardware I'd be surprised if training was even possible for most useable models.
