Why not just put any other kind of display flat and put glass over it to protect it? Edit: Someone has your dream display already :) https://www.etsy.com/listing/1463146123/43-4k-dnd-tv-table

I had an interview question at Twitter that no one ever got 100% right because no one ever asked what the entity indexes in a tweet actually were, code point indexes, everyone assumed they were whatever their language used in substring(). H

Meaning that if it says EV it isn't a Tesla. Even though all Tesla's are EVs.

So what. You can also draw a picture of Mickey Mouse holding a machine gun and send it over chat if you like. Can we stop with the pearl clutching bullshit? If anyone is at "fault" here it is the person asking for the picture.

Vector extensions to your current database or search engine makes far more sense than adding yet another dependency to manage and operate. The vector database folks will have to become a real database or full featured search engine to survi

This isn't a test for hereditary cancers. It is test for the gene's that indicate you have an increased risk for hereditary cancers. It matters as there are actual blood tests for cancer available now.

The point is that iteration is before training. You don't iterate post starting the training and presumably this person doesn't want to train the model themselves. If they do, they can do that but they need to get the training dat

You don't iterate on the model weights, you train them on billions of tokens. There was no real iteration, you set it up and wait for the GPUs to do the work. The model architecture itself is done before you start training. If you chan

I for one look forward to there being a franken iphone in EU covered with ads and malware. Apple should give them exactly what they want. Every major software company will have their own app store for their apps. It will be glorius!

It drives me insane that the standardized tracing libraries have you only report closed spans. What if it crashes? What if it stalls? Why should I keep open spans in memory when I can just write an end span event?
