I have also encountered something similar whilst attempting to print a ticket to a major amusement park in Europe using Edge. The page the tickets were on secured by a login mechanism, and attempting to print the tickets resulted a page wit

Looks like a cool project, I would love to see this as a browser plugin of some sort. As for the corpus, I suspect that using articles from Wikipedia would be appropriate. Especially large articles are routinely checked and cleaned up. It h

Then again, the hours that were cut also wouldn't have to be paid to the people not working them. In a perfect situation this would have led to higher employment numbers and happier employees. However, the Bloomberg source[1] also ment

Is it just me, or does it feel like we've been hearing about advances in dental treatment for decades, without them actually having any effect on the practice? From my personal experience as someone living in the Netherlands, where sta

Without regarding any other research on this topic, this particular paper has some interesting notes that may be considered. The sample size (52) is somewhat small, and the humans in this sample are already obese. (Even) the N-AGPT group (n

I could see the appeal of some of the lower range hardware plans, but especially the higher tiers seem way off in terms of pricing. Can someone clarify why a 2 core/8GB machine costs 80$, where other IaaS providers charge far less for

Each of the channels (filters, in this case) is visualized separately. The user selects a layer and each of the image maps shown represents the activations of that channel. You can verify this by looking at the `nb_filters` key in the JSON

I'm loving this, I've been using scaleway as a host for a few months and they've provided great value during that time. As a Dutch national it would be great for my latency to see scaleway add some capacity to Amsterdam. The

Specifically in the context of the usage (that is, transferring USD), the fees were about 6 times what they would have been if he were to use a bank account. In the big picture I do agree with you, though. 1% fees on individual services are

While I agree that those fees are extravagant and the underlying process should have been much easier, it probably would have been prudent to investigate the process first, before starting it. I can't imagine being unaware of fees asso

While I agree with the premise that open source could, in theory, serve the long tail better, I think the barrier to entry of pharmacological research is far higher than that of software development. It should be noted that this is not with

To be completely honest, if you're not using the tool Let's Encrypt is creating with the specific intent of making configuration easier, it sounds like a moot point to state that it "might be quite hard to configure it".

While this is very intesting, the storage mentioned does seem somewhat small to me. The article compares the area covered by the text to be a little smaller than a HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). However, the genome of HIV apparently st
