Side note: that site has well over three hundred vendors listed for cookies! I thought they were generating fake outs without end but I did eventually reach the end

Has anyone seen this implemented? Doesn't look like there is any code to try or links to a demo. They mention a video but the paper didn't include details but a quick Google found this (which I vaguely recognise now as having been

Denial in the face of incontrovertible evidence undermines trust to an extent incompatible with working in any serious organisation.

I think it will depend on your route and the time of your commute. I see fairly distinct behaviour at different times on the tube & Elizabeth Line: come in or leave late and it's full of people who are much less considerate, go in

It's impressive but it's a shame that it's 2026 and despite remarkably lifelike speech, so many models fall on common issues like heteronyms ("the couple had a row because they couldn't agree where to row their boat

In popular areas with lots of overlapping photos, something akin to that was possible with PhotoSynth where it joined together matching photos projected into an inferred 3D space. Sadly the service was discontinued a while back. https:&#x2

Curious to understand what drove that the most? Certainly for this article, Medium's annoying way it blocks zooming in/out on images when on mobile is limiting and frustrating! But I sense you'll have broader concerns...

This is great - the service and that you're extending it and considering a UI. Personally I would go with option 2 as the colour from the covers beats the anaemic feel of 1 and it seems more original than the search with grid below of

Gets stuck at 84% each time - seems wasteful to let it get that far!

Thanks! I confirm they're all working for me now! Happy New Year!

Great work! Side issue: anyone else seeing that none of the links in the article work? They're all 404s.

Reminds me of being en route with Lufthansa to Germany, needing an emergency landing in Turin, being shepherded onto a new working plane by Italians, then continuing to Germany where the whole plane load arrived without tickets from Turin..

How is this substantively different from the endless spam we all receive from clueless illiterate spammers?

Could this be a sign that Google is starting to think again? For an organisation that often does deeply intelligent things, they spend such a lot of time treating their users unnecessarily poorly because obvious implications seem not to occ

Yes, this seems something that would be so easy to get right. Not to take away from the achievement of this repo but no one benefits from a recording where the person doing it hasn't decided up front what they're going to demo and

Would be interesting to leverage the non spoken/environment noises to guide what level of detail and style of speech a chatbot replied with, for instance being more casual, gentle, with a touch more detail if in a quiet home/offic

Absolutely. I like the diplomatic way the authors put this, whilst making it blatant what the implications are.

It's not so challenging and it happens widely in industry: people are often heavily restricted in the range of trading they may conduct in cases where their business would give them insider knowledge, such as in certain parts of banks,

Reminds me of reading Programming Collective Intelligence by Toby Segaran, which inspired me with a range of things, like building search, recommenders, classifiers etc.

Yes, fuly agree. And enough time has passed with it being robust and performant that the old bores who used to go on about KDE performance have finally given up bleeting on about that. I wouldn't bash GNOME as clearly plenty of work go

It's wrapping the web version of Teams, so presumably there are few of the issues you suggest because most of the functionality comes from the page and it's just changes that impact the smaller number of Linux integrations that ne

A new joiner colleague from another team tried this with me. The script was followed in such a clunky manner I started to wonder if that team had unwittingly hired someone with learning difficulties. Whatever the situation, they didn't

Yes, the context of this seemed pretty hard to figure out from the abstract alone. Opening the PDF I see it's physics related and they have illustrations that seem like some kind of actual physical shape. But I'm still somewhat at

[Edited] I see you corrected it now! Previously: I think you mean Dutch citizens, given that the Hague is in the Netherlands and not Switzerland.

It sounds like you are disappointed by it's not "a lie": more ≠ all. It's natural that entering markets takes time and that some markets may never be entered if the economics aren't good, even if a company would ide
