All these Jev projects… great. But Jev was only just released a week ago. That’s the hard limit on how much effort has gone into all these OSS extensions and derivatives: one week. I don’t therefore see any value in adopting any of them,

Thanks for asking, NuclearPM. It was not actually a question. In informal English a question mark can follow a plain statement, where then it indicates a non-specific uncertainty. In the case above, the sentence could be interpreted general

Genius doesn’t always look like you expect it will. Well done! (Kill the login panel though —- it wouldn’t go away for me)

Sadly, I’ve come to expect that 90% of the time someone points out antisemitism, it was not actually antisemitism but rather criticism of the Israeli government and its military. This is so damaging. The word is losing its meaning.

Just as sound, not language. When hearing sing in my head I’ll hear the little details. When listening to song on radio I’ll know when those details are coming, even if I haven’t heard the song in ages. Same with you I imagine?

Let’s do a quick survey for aphantasics: 1. How’s your audio-lization? Can you hear music (accurately) in your head? Can you pick out instruments, pause, rewind, etc? 2. Can you visualize pure motion ? Maybe you can’t visualize a woman

Insensitive comment for this thread, but I suspect on purpose ;-)

FWIW I’m exactly like you. My ability to replay music sometimes surprises me. Sometimes I’ll hear a song on the radio I haven’t heard in decades and be able to anticipate tiny details precisely (like, “here’s where the harmonica comes in in

Question for visualizers: is imagery held steady in your dream, or does it constantly shift and morph? I’m aphantasic and like I’ve seen many people report here, I can kinda almost conjure up images but can’t hold them steady even for a m

How’s your sleep quality? I (aphantasic) only ever dream on weekends when I sleep in over 8 hours (rare), and having to get up to pee after 4 hours also cuts in.

Literally ad hominem, though. I doesn’t matter one bit about what Grindr has done, when discussing whether AI is “anti-civilization.”

I’ll never understand this mentality. The Houthis commit human rights violations. We’re here talking about the Houthis. We’re not talking about Israel’s war crimes, or America’s war crimes, or Japan’s war crimes, or China’s war crimes, or

I clicked on Supernumerary nipples. Interesting. In the Sources section, there’s a link to Mark Wahlberg’s Wikipedia page. There’s nothing about nipples on Mark Wahlberg’s Wikipedia page.

As Ohentis says below, maybe the new thing was going all-in. But my advice, in this weird new world we’re living in, is not to dismiss claims like this as PR fluff. Just about every time I’ve been incredulous of some ridiculous new AI adva

The part that most stood out to me was where Sama said, “we read last week about people trying to solve Millenium problems and so gave it a shot.” One week of work on a whim gives us a math breakthrough. Crazy.

This shows how Apple actually thought through the issue instead of just doing the most obvious thing. Because if you start with regular phone dimensions, then you wind up with basically a square screen when open, which is not natural and n

Since 2019 it has been a requirement for promotions above Senior Director, to be able to stand with your feet 24" apart while conducting a product review. They have a special ruler (titanium!) in the Apple Park basement to measure pro

Having worked in more than one of the big AV players, I can tell you that your fears of cover-ups or conspiracies with the government, is completely wrong. It'd be interesting if you have to first-hand experience otherwise, though...?

So your contention, then, is that Google>Waymo and the other companies should have invested billions not into AV, but instead into funding trains and paying for buses?

> Interesting that Waymo chooses to compare accident rates with the average driver vs the rideshare drivers their cars replace. The numbers wouldn't look as impressive because rideshare drivers are involved in fewer serious accident

Personally, I always loved the way Tim Cook would always do this little bouncy thing while he talked. He kept his knees always bent a bit, and every few words would do a little tiny bounce. Once you see it…

I always use the kids urinal, the single urinal that is mounted low to the ground. Otherwise, the urinals are always so high, sometimes it feels like I'm about to rest my frank & beans on the urinal lip. No thanks!

So true. I know a couple, retired, who are constantly traveling to Europe and Japan. When they’re not traveling, they spend all their time reading or visiting with their kids and grandkids. I often want to tell them: You fools! You’ll ne
