I think the point is it's not zero shot if a sample is needed. A system that require one sample is usually considered one-shot, or few-shot if it needs few, etc etc.

Akihabara was where runoffs and spillovers from cutting edge electronics accumulated until ~2010s. There used to be tons of failed experiments and EOL'd enterprise gears washing up. After that, supplies shifted to Taiwan and then to Sh

I've asked Gemini about it the other day(I'm dumb and shameless). Apparently it means that the model branches into bunch of 3B sections in the middle and joins at both ends, totaling in parameters at 30B. This means computational

Hopefully this serves as a reminder to decision makers with Web backgrounds to NOT push random non-critical _firmware_ updates without clear merit, or random updates in general. Security is not fluids. It doesn't naturally evaporate. S

Nowhere in the world can you make a smartphone at $25 each, even with a bit of slave labor. Either the LTV of a phone is like few k dollars for them, or someone argues it is, or they want network effect, whatever. But $25 is too cheap of a

And that would be wrong. It's the other way around. It's CDs that has a distinct sound for some reason, not vinyl having "analog warmth".

People used to say human eyes can't perceive >60fps. It's also just CDs, not digital formats in general. Grab an audiophile and ask their opinions about digital PDM/PCM formats, high bitrate AACs even, against true vinyls.

They don't, because just about anything available is better than CDs. Vinyl craze is actually not about "warmth", just genuinely more data.

Em dashes aren't rare because of disuse. It's a Unicode character that can't be easily typed from a Western language keyboards -- real humans shouldn't be able to vocalize it. Hence it's considered an AI giveaway.

I think capacitive touchscreens always did? It was never reliable enough or something. The panels generate scanned strength maps for the whole displays. Values for locations that aren't being touched aren't zeroes.
