What's with the last author/first author thing in science papers? I've read several times that the author listed last is usually the most significant contributor, and the first author the least significant, due to some kind o

Text, or something like a CSV including descriptions would be great. A quick grep to find what you need.

Selection bias? Dashcam videos showing normal braking and the clear, preemptive avoidance of an accident would be the least uploaded/promoted and watched?

Many of us seem to have ended up at that documentation page out of exasperation, as we couldn't find video examples on the main page. It appears that portrait vs landscape on their main page, on mobile at least, conceals that promo vi

I've seen that page - it has 16 videos and it's unclear which are sped up, by how much, and which aren't. Some look sped up to my eye, and even if they aren't, I simply can't trust they aren't because they&#x

Killed my trust also, "drowning in launch" is no excuse for not rectifying this immediately. Posting a real-time video right now would take five minutes and clear up all this bad publicity right when they need to.

Sorry, what?

They likely didn't license the original recording as the lyrics specifically and continually lampoon advertising and marketing. There's likely not a long enough section that could be used or even edited together that'd work.

Thanks for this, I appreciate hearing your perspective and basically agree. An important point you raise is the significance of a deep history intermingled with that of a country's neighbours. Especially I think when it involves levels

My first thought too. The articles basic premise is something like: "People don't like the new film, but the old film may contain more CGI than they thought, so they're wrong." Who would come up with such a premise unles

Having travelled extensively, I've observed that Americans, in general, whether themselves travellers, or living in the US, are significantly less aware of other countries and cultures than any other major country. Absurdly so. Furth

It's a reflection of a general myopia in the American psyche, which intensifies as you reach the country's center where the rest of the world is relegated to being regarded as a strange abstract construct, and either ignored, disd

As it's common - if someone doesn't realise what it is, it's: its it's should be its not it's.

Somehow I didn't get that impression from the website at all. I thought it was clear, functional, told me everything I needed to know in the order I needed to know it, and also looked nice - tying into the "amber" branding we

If this makes money, big tech could open a lucrative market for themselves, suspending more and more accounts, and requesting higher and higher "priority fees" to unsuspend them. (Hmm... somehow reminds me of organised crime...)

I tried it and sometimes it worked, other times it complained an existing artists name was in the description and wouldn't allow generation.

Having used it a bit, I'd agree - but when it does good vocals, they have typically been very good. When it's failed it often is because it keeps layering on more "takes" in what ends up as a thick mess. Seems to progr

For greater control, higher quality audio results and less censorship, but with the downside of being a bit fiddly, there's Udio. It's otherwise functionally similar: https://www.udio.com/ (Not affiliated, nor hav

I wonder if this could be adapted into a form-factor that fits in a Framework laptop, to replace its LCD display. Perhaps some of the supporting circuitry could be housed in a USB bay for example?

Probably right in the broader sense, but there are still niches. Eg, for one: space deployments, where sufficiently hardened parts may lag decades behind SOTA and the environ can require a careful balance of energy/heat against run-tim

Surprised no one is mentioning vitamin D. As I understood it, sun exposure is one of the few ways the body is supplied with this vitamin in a usable form. Vitamin D is essential for the immune system so a correlation between a lack of sun e

Very interested in an app of this kind, but wouldn't buy it without trialing on my data. Too many content-specific gotcha's could render it ineffective, amazing or anywhere in-between. A time-based trial could be good in that resp

Very impressive! Would it be possible to port to x86/DOS, and keep the same code size? Or is there limitation in the WASM aspect?

Could you provide sources for this? Sounds plausible, given it is electromagnetic energy.

Sorry about your dad, but should you feel bad? Free discussion back then was so stifled many didn't even realise it wasn't being had. FWIW, an organisation called FLCCC established in early 2020 to deal with COVID, also now has a
