My takeaway is this: If you want to meet your significant other, attend a university. After university your chances will dwindle down as you won't frequent that big come together place any more.

But that’s weird, as 9! is just 360,000, 6 digits in decimal. Assuming a pocket calculator has 8 digits, it would overflow only if the starting number was around 300. Was it like that?

It's called hallucination. As the model is trained on unsupervised data, such errors do seldom happen. The model picks up that such phrases occur in translations and inserts them even if they do not appear in the source. This is descri

How can I use this (or something similar) for live translation? I don't mind if there's a 30s delay. As in I don't want to input a file, I want to input the microphone sound.

The famous fox domestication experiment that was carried out successfully in Russia over 40 years [1], shows how many generations it takes (40) and what genetic changes occur during domestication. What I also want to add is that some dog br

Because the grammatical case is a morpho-syntactical category of flexion . Suffixes are not inflections.

I want to add to it that Finnish doesn’t actually have cases . It’s just the equivalent of cases which takes the shape of suffixes. Note that our personal pronouns also take the shape of suffixes in Finnish: taloni (my house) talossani (

It breaks where generations and numbers mix. While 12xxx and 12xx are Alder Lake, 11xxx is Rocket Lake (based on Ice Lake) and 11xx is Tiger Lake. 10xxx is based on Skylake, 10xx is Ice Lake. That’s where it’s misleading. The number is only

I don’t like that we call it 12th Gen Intel. It would be more correct to just call it the 12000 series Intel. Intel didn’t change CPU generations from 6000-10000 series, they’re all the same generation. Just because the years advance and th
