   Oh, this browser again. It seems that Firefox might have a problem with `mix-blend-mode: multiply;` and 3D CSS transforms. Cards are now correctly behaving in Firefox, but across the board they are visually less appealing. Thank you for bri

    Apple sold 1.39M iPhones in 2007 and 11.63M in 2008. They sold 9.6M of Watch in the first year. Both products were easily graspable by mere mortals even without hands-on experience. “Magic eyewear” is a hard sell without people trying it ou

    Apple brought Metal backend to Blender. Lately, Unity got a lot of UI polish and optimization for tile-based GPUs. I bet that both will have dedicated demo during keynote.

    I would like to take a moment to appreciate also the localization of the words. I deal with technical English my whole life, so I have no problem understanding computer terminology, but using Mac UI in my native language is quite beautiful

    This is intriguing. Could it be simply explained by introducing ToM (or ToM-like) training data? Since all DaVinci models are 175B parameters, the extra training or training data must be the reason for the improvement. Do we know how differ
