Indeed, entry level positions in Italy are much lower in general, but that's what Bending Spoons advertise on their website [1]. Milan is an expensive city, the average wage 2.5x the national average, and they're kind of a cool em

Bending Spoons is an Italian company. Most of their job postings are Milan, Italy, or fully remote, with the preference for those in between GMT-2 and GMT+3 time zones. Assuming they want to continue Evernote as a product, I wonder if they

There is one killer application for voice assistants: answering phone calls. I wish Siri could respond to all unknown phone numbers, screen promotional and robocalls, take notes if necessary and report what's important to me (and I nee

FUD about food. I'm not an expert in food safety, but this article is not trustworthy. It throws many scary words around, often implying that something is "bad", but never cares to explain or elaborate. Also, the author is to

You'll have to choose. Eventually. Allocate time and resources to learn what you want to learn, but set your objectives. And stick to what you have set to yourself. Any choice or lack of has opportunity cost. You can go wide, at the co

I believe the creativity is primarily the process, something we enjoy doing, not the method to _produce_ or _generate_ something. Sort of like dogs like playing fetch. Some creative processes do not create permanent artifacts at all, like a

Images are different, but it appears that DALL-E is inspired by the aesthetics and the layout of the copyrighted material. Another example, picking a random image from the Getty Images site. "A young parkour flips through the city,guan

For me personally it would be useful to be able to lookup chords by their middle and upper notes. Let say I improvise a lick and want to find some harmonization. F# and A should evoke not only F#m but also Dmaj and Bm7, and maybe something

I’m using duck.com, Hide My Email and Firefox Relay. All work fine, but I think Firefox Relay has better UI to manage aliases: it has tags and can block promotional emails. And I like that it’s a paid service.

No, I didn't get the tag. But I suppose that Getty metadata as well as the images were used for training.

It seems it is possible to generate images which are very similar to the existing stock photos if you feed getty images' description into DALL-E. I tried it with a distinctive banana image: https://imgur.com/a/0OrI

They may also find another loophole: like make iPhone thinner than USB C, or certify it as a health tracker, or increase charging rate to 101 W. That technically moves iPhone into the laptop territory, and different regulations apply. &quot

To be fair, Google Maps’ cycling and walking directions are also very sketchy. I think driving directions are similar or slightly better in Apple Maps. But finding the place where you want to go is where Apple is behind. Misplaced, duplicat

Personally I would support a uniform CO2 tax on everything, but I think it's more difficult to introduce and enforce. Energy tax + fuel duty can be a CO2 tax in disguise: there are already precise tools to measure and bill energy and f

I don't see a problem replacing fuel duty with an energy tax. Make it progressive. Let say the first 3000 kWh per year are priced at residential rate, apply higher rate above that. Households without a car will pay the same price as be
