Higher quality could also mean the description attached to the original images in the dataset. If you were to describe a picture of someone you would never specifically call out the fact that they have 5 fingers per hand, we take it for gra

When kids die as infants they don't have time to have any meaningful interactions with their great-grand parents so the point of the article still stands somewhat. The age of great-grandmothers is low infant mortality + parents making

It feels strange and almost arrogant to "name" the tree with the name of a human figure with our lifespan less than a mere century.

Yes that's exactly what I'm saying. I'm wondering why people call the geometric primitive "splats" instead of "gaussians". I see people refer to the .ply file as containing millions of "splats".

I see various people online calling the primitive "splats" (ex: the scene has millions of splats, 248 bytes for each splat, etc). But the primitive are the 3D gaussians, "splat" just refers to how they are rendered. I wo

I don't use a VPN service to "hide myself", I use a VPN service to access content from other countries that is locked to that specific country. A use-case the OP seems to be completely oblivious about.

Yeah it's pretty weird. With the word "suicide" it's sometimes used in this way to mean that one is pushed to commit the act by someone else. (Maybe more so in other languages where the verb is to suicide oneself ). S

Alice sends Bob an email containing the text resource.zip somewhere. Alice and Bob both trust each other. Bob's mail client converted the text into a link, Bob clicks the link and ends up on Mallory's website where the exploit is.
