Since, High Sierra I think? Cmd+Shift+5 has opened screen record mode. With Dropbox automatically archiving screenshots and videos saved to desktop, this use case seems to have been covered already?

I succeeded in my (UK, funded) physics doctoral program, but nobody else who started in my department the same year did, even if they seemed to be very capable and intelligent individuals. I think one or two managed to convert their progres

This is what I _hate_ about the Audi striping indicators. Yes, they are actually useful when you see them when they are indicating. However, when they have the hazard lights on, they still stripe. So if it's still and you can't se

I don’t know if any of them ever ended up getting off the ground, but the theory was that you could pick up the step-function shockwave from underwater interactions with a giant array of microphones. There were some test arrays in the Medit

This is somewhat correct, but talking about only one class of experiment (Cherenkov detectors). Indeed it’s the child-particles of the interactions that are observed, so, electrons muons and Tau particles. Depending how you are measuring, (

How would you know the two different neutrinos interactions came from the same source/distance without producing them yourself?

by misnome 5y ago
Energy ranges, knowing exactly how far you are from the source of the neutrinos, and background exclusion. If you are too far from the source, the mixing you might be measuring might have happened already happened. You can build a detector

It seems more likely that describing it as such is just good marketing, and the main reason is that it's PR control against associating unsavory things with GPT3 and their brand name.

If the injunction doesn’t take hold for 90 days, then it isn’t _now_ disallowed by courts. And if Apple wins an appeal against it you are screwed if you jumped now (assuming it passed review). Edit: I thought both sides were appealing. That

I also wonder this. "Unused parameter in function" is one of the most basic warning/linting checks. I'd be interested in finding out how this managed to reach release.

I wonder if this was the original inspiration for Thunderbird 5?

Gaslighting? Your proposed scenario is: - Send colliding images - image gets uploaded to icloud automatically - image _also_ collides with private hash <- completely unclear how this happens - Only the colliding images are looked at by a

As I understand it; - Law enforcement doesn't get _anything_ unless it triggers a large number of images that match the perceptual hash - It also needs to match a -private- perceptual hash, that isn't distributed to devices, and s

Let’s ignore the fact that you just shifted the goalposts from “emailing a 1 pixel image SWATs them” to an extremely wide scope for a minute - Even assuming that is true that iCloud is trivially “hackable” - and as I understand it, that was

How does this theoretical attack get them to save the attached image to iCloud?

Yes. Although I don't use them much myself (outside of Make/Ninja), I still think it is a big "Plus" when evaluating build systems next to each other.

Maybe if you are installing from a distro-provided central repository like debian and only using system package-managed sources, and nothing exotic. On a cursory check, the conda environment that we build off has 250 packages in, and only 6

Oh no, that's awful. 7Zip is the perfect example to demonstrate that. (not too taken with the plus it gets in that video for windows terminal, which has been available for ages)
