That's nothing, I was able to find this list of the top 1000 names online: https://www.verywellfamily.com/top-1000-baby-boy-names-27576... Soon we'll discover that Copilot is also exposing api keys! https:/&

Since the title is clickbait, here's what happened. interviewing.io runs an interviewing platform. They noticed women were performing worse than men. They built a voice modulator to mask the gender of candidates. Masking had no effect

Looks like the site has a bug where it parses numbers incorrectly from the source PDF. The actual numbers are much lower in many cases.

This is not going to replace architects or designers in the near term, but it could still transform the industry. The conversion pipeline for things like this today relies on ads, word of mouth, and expensive sales processes. Imagine a home

The part you are missing is that the entire system has to die for your specific data to be lost. That may happen, but it's a different risk than imagining that somebody is storing a single piece of data indefinitely for a single up fro

Sure, but it doesn't have to count to be useful. When I run this locally on desktop GPU, I get 16 results in a few seconds. I can visually select the 2-3 that match what I want and pick one of them. I can try again ten times for 20-30

I think the path forward for something like this is models that learn to execute python code and incorporate the results into their outputs. There are already projects that can generate correct matplotlib calls for prompts like yours, but I

I just tried the prompts with Imagen and Parti. They are similar to Dalle-2, with a bit more "variety" but none reproducing the author's specific prompt the way the author wants. For the prompt "a graph with 3 lines"

One missing dimension for this comparison is how long it takes to get results. I've been using Imagen/Parti/Stable Diffusion already as a replacement for "clip art" because it takes ~15 seconds to get results and th

Because the connectors still suck and there's a ton of room for innovation. Imagine if we were stuck with USB-C forever, that would be bad. It's already worse than lightning as a connector for cell phones. The default shouldn'

But no, this is not true. The iphone charger is already USB. I use them with my Android phone all the time, and iphone users charge with my pixel charger. Those already interoperate. I understand the e-waste and consumer protection argument

Serious question, why is is it a problem to put a tiny cable in a landfill? The amount they leach is essentially zero. The EU would have done more for the environment by spending $20k cleaning up an extra few car batteries. This is so obvio

I'm not a medical researcher, but I think you're misinterpreting these results. The efficacy does not "turn negative". It's negative for some time interval lagged after vaccination. This is expected, because some of

They can have this attitude, and so can you, but people like me will avoid working with you if you don't believe you should act professionally just because you're not getting paid.

I work on camera algorithms full time and do Ethereum stuff in my free time, not sure that's relevant though. Like it or not, FSF has governance and power structures. The GNU project power structure is very top heavy, effectively a dic
