The article is a bit weird, he refused to sign a form inside a private company. But the private company presented a signed form to NASA (signed by higher-up’s). So NASA probably didn’t look closely into the engineering, in particular when l

you still get the baked-in ads, and I get weird ads when watching video embedded in other websites.

I love how many of those blog posts are triggered by German articles. German chemistry: the best outcome is setting grant money ablaze.

I'm a bit confused, everybody talks about hallucinations around me, I don't feel like it's ignored.

I'm curious, have MBAs made anything better for the masses, ever?

no, sorry, the friend who told me all that left the country.

For the curious people, there are no practical refractive materials for x-rays, and mirror shapes have to be 4 times more accurate than equivalent refractive systems for the same diffraction limit.

I think the hope is that the LLM would find the needle in the haystack with more accuracy. But in jobs that matters, you check the results.

It’s also because developing cancellations cost money, and they don’t like spending, so they “forget” some details.

Funny, I recently had a client telling me his system was non-refundable, so I didn't handle cancellations in the database, later I discovered that actually the sales channel tends to manually refund orders if the request is less than

I would add that even if they recovered, drinkers increase their risk for a few cancer, so you probably can't just assess their past health issues to correct the life expectancy.

Did the non-drinking couples get regressed out of the confounders? I would guess a lot of people stop drinking after a health scare, so you'd have to remove the effect of the underlying medical issue to compare them with the moderately

It's also a way for newcommers to discover what an app can do, people know that opening menus has absolutely no risk, while clicking a button might open a modal or actually do something. So generally you want 3 levels: menus, buttons i

The designers who have not read the classics are a pain too. There are things that normal people don't know, like how a submenu should work, and when a user ask for a submenu the designer should bring the non-crapy way of doing it with

copilot hallucinates functions and packages versions all the time, it's a nightmare, I never know if I got a suggestion from a predictible IDE algorithm or the drunk overeager intern, and it's really annoying. Being on your toes m

there was a geologist saying more or less: "volcaninc eruptions in the winter are inconvenient, the snow on the ground doesn't allow fine measurement of the surface deformation, wind and waves swamp the seismometers, and clouds te

As a wertern European, the first time I converted wind speeds from a US hurricane, I thought I fumbled the maths, it was like 100kph/60mph higher than our winter storms. I since learned that the storm scale and the hurricane scale are

I'd like to add the caution that songs might change a lot during their author's life, and the "suzanne" she heard might be different from the one we know.

it's funny how older countries are sometimes ahead of some trends. Here in France we can ignore some local height limits to install solar pannels, it's now forbidden (in the genreal case) to toss your rainwater to the street, you
