I realize that the editor would be the system to keep track of how the character was entered for this to work. If you made the character from a single keypress it would only make sense that backspace also undid the entire character. Only if

For me that doesn't work on Windows. Those key combinations doesn't seem to do anything.

No, but I do once in a while (very rarely) write a little in german that might use that character.

There are libraries that help with iterating both code-points and grapheme clusters... - but are there any of them that can help decide what to do for example when pressing backspace given an input string and a cursor position? Or any othe

I wonder if this could be used for crime scene investigation. Photos/video from the location could be made into a virtual scene for later inspection from any angle. Would a witness have been able to see a certain spot from some locatio

Pure speculation/dreaming/brainfarting on my part: While I think DLSS will do a major part of the heavy lifting for upscaling, denoising and frame-generation I think the brunt of the AI generation will happen in the engines and&#x

I remember a story about a car that consistently refused to start after a family went to the store to buy vanilla ice cream but it worked fine when they bought chocolate ice cream. (My apologies for any inaccuracies in my recollection of it

This could be really interesting for texture sampling in 3D graphics if it is cheap to calculate which “tile” you’re in in real-time.

My web-technology professor at my uni (around 2007) was a big fan of XML and all the surrounding technologies. He saw it as this beautiful interconnected system where the web being pure XML would allow all data in the world to be queried li

Similarly, the first 100 pages of “The girl with the dragon tattoo” was just really dull and heavy to get through. Then the rest becomes good. Interestingly they condensed those 100 pages into less than 5 minutes at the start of the film ve

I have (at least partly) control over when this happens for me. If one of my nostrils is clogged (without any pathological reason) and I focus on it, I can open up my airways again quite quickly. Sometimes I even hear a squeeky sound as the

The slowness in firefox comes from the station name drawing. Going from U to S+U and back again seems to reset the setting for drawing them. The settings option for drawing the station names is somewhat buggy. To optimize this the text shou

Whenever I receive an email that is worded like that but is written in my native language it immediately raises a red flag because no one around here communicates that way. In 99/100 cases the email is spam/phishing attempt.

I get the feeling that it is highly subjective how widely adopted people seem to believe these are. It would be interesting to see some actual research on this. While many may have a whole bunch of those apps installed it says nothing about

Somewhere in the training data there could have been information about how to do this but the model just didn't have a "connection" to that data until sufficient context was established. It wasn't until the end that the

For me, the most interesting aspect of AR would be interfacing with all sorts of electrical appliances on an AR HUD. The device could emit a simple API and UI description in some standard format and the headset would take care of the rest -

It seems to "just" be a compiler optimizer's version of "git bisect" to find where exactly the bug occurs in a binary search (to find the bug faster). You could in theory just linearly try enabling more and more opt
