Yeah these have been the hot thing for a minute. Nina Tandons TED talk came out 10 years ago and minus a few more detailed developments, I think it holds up really well as an introduction. The main challenges are related to the fact that ce

Iirc that was UC Davis (doesn't change anything except making sure the correct institution receives the black mark) and they tried to pay some org to remove that pic from the internet lmao.

Similarly, cell lines are known to have variations and make replication difficult, especially after a few passages at the lab. FBS also being essential to media but being notoriously difficult to standardize makes things even trickier.

Probably more so that Stanford's meteoric rise in prestige and social capital that it attracts a number of affluent, well-connected, ambitious types who are willing to set aside morality and used to getting their way. I highly, highly

If you've seen Cat on a Hot Tin Roof you'd probably remember how frequently mendacity is used, too.

Eh, I'm not an analyst, but to the best of my knowledge yt premium falls under google services, which operates at a net negative. TBF it's mixed in w/ other revenue streams w/ most likely higher cost of revenues, but it&

A bit inflammatory imo, given the scale of the challenge[^1], but definitely there were several failures under her tenure that are worth noting. Youtube Red (later Premium), Music, and Originals all seemed to not really pan out, and as a re

This happened to me too, and I probably spent way too long trying to recreate it. Truth be told, nothing in the code really looks like it would cause this issue. My best guess is that when the game is in the ready state, for some reason get

I haven't seen the movie, I recalled a decent amount of reporting on it back during Cambridge Analytica.

Zuckerberg's case is arguably even worse (though I completely agree otherwise). If I recall he created a way for harvard guys to rate their female peers appearances and had some pretty disparaging comments on the site itself.

I mean, ChatGPT isn't even innovative for OpenAI's team. In terms of raw language capabilities it's not much more effective as GPT-3, which passed the HN Turing test almost a year before. Some of the credit goes to the fact t

The paper seems to be instead arguing that the range of our radio broadcasts has not reached significantly far into space. Not that aliens are waiting for us to develop, so much as the sign that we're even here hasn't even reached

There _is_ an Ohio University that can cause confusion, even for Ohio natives. The reasons for the definite article though stem from its legal history and has mostly just become a way Ohioans signify as being "in the know". Anyone

I don't think GP is advocating to keep the land undeveloped. They even go so far as the point out how the area makes a lot of sense for developers. The problems they identify seem to be 1) the reckless abandon to which developers are d

I assume there's probably a way to modify or configure MD-based SSGs to produce side notes instead of footnotes. Hilariously I think you could use RMD because that has built-in sidenote functionality but it would probably require some

I think Replika ( https://replika.com/ ) is one of the bigger ones. I know of it from a few youtube videos making fun of it, but I really don't know how anyone can form an attachment to a chatbot.

Yeah, I mean I have nothing against rationalism (mostly because I haven't read much rationalist writings), so if these are concepts that have made it into rationalism then there's really not much to add. >Throwing hands up in t

Don't forget the cheating scandal and Carlsen declining to defend the WC title. Both made it into the mainstream news which at the very least caused people to search for chess.

While I really hope the claim that hating on Comic Sans being ableist is facetious, I do kinda like the font, and use Fantasque Sans[^1] in my terminal. [^1]: https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans

Any particular reason why? I will admit, though, that I did not realize this was non-fiction when first skimming it and assumed puppeteer was a real job cooked up by stanford grads.

I suppose less an real-time collaborative exercise, and more of a way to encourage short bursts of repetition -- in line with how debaters have to quickly formulate and synthesize speeches in high school and college. Writing is obviously no

The problem with point 1 is that it's just not good at convincing people. If you have a situation where automation fails but a human would have done better, then it doesn't matter unless the statistics are overwhelmingly in your f
