I find it very painful that modern computers still have such terrible midi chips, and modern operating systems don't come with decent midi synthesisers. It's a real hassle trying to get reasonable sounding MIDI on either windows o

I don't know for everyone but I think I can move a mouse faster and more accurately when not holding down the mouse button.

Let's say the price of petrol goes up for me. Does it matter if I know why?

For most of the world, war between two countries in the middle east doesn't really have any direct impact, right? Liek, if I didn't know about it, nothing would change for me.

I just love that this is still online after all these years.

I have the same problem - missed the first couple of letters on every line. Also FF on Android (Pixel 5).

Well, yes :) But I was talking within the same context as the thread, which is business.

I'm not convinced there is really any important news.

Eh, those are early adopters. My partner is not a coder but uses copilot a lot. Compare this to blockchain, which never did anything useful for anyone after 20 years.

Just like every car doesn't seem like a big deal compared to all the other millions of cars.

Yeah, that was my thought. I'd love to see steam trains converted to electricity or even diesel in a way that basically they still look like steam trains to the casual observer, but without all the coal burning.

By that logic, airports should only have been built in cities...which is exactly where they are.

The article mentions Denmark's economy is about the same size as Tennessee's. Parent should have compared Denmark's population density with TN's (65/km^2).

Presumably if they were familiar with Tennessee culture, they wouldn't be asking?

>Dollywood moves about 5,000 people per day. That’s 92% of all rail riders in Tennessee, if you exclude Amtrak’s single daily train, the City of New Orleans. So...why do they exclude the "City of New Orleans"? They don't e

Interesting demo. A few observations, having uploaded a snippet of my own voice, and testing with some of my own text: - the output had some of the qualities of my voice, but wasn't super similar. (Then again, the fact it could even do

Yeah, it's a very common initialism for people who work in the space, and have some context.

Huh, I never considered using ChatGPT to read terms of serivce for me. Nice idea.

I guess we're all trying to figure out where we sit along the continuum from anti-AI Luddite to all-in. My main issue with vibe coding etc is I simply don't enjoy it. Having a conversation with a computer to generate code that I d

I don't pick up on that difference in meaning at all. Is that some general rule for adverb placement?

Not all writing needs to be witty.

by stevage 1y ago
Essentially the advice here is "avoid redundant adverbs" but it takes the author a lot of words to say it.

by stevage 1y ago
I'm really appreciating some of the writing en AI that is coming out now. Beyond simply "vibe coding is bad" but advancing arguments about the specific risks.

Ah, that's interesting, thanks. I lived in France in 2001-2 and was friends with someone who was studying for his partiels to become a chemistry teacher.

"lazy" doesn't feel like the right name. More like low stress. I really enjoyed it.

Oh, I just copy paste back and forth. Often I just paste an error with some scroll back but no instructions and it works out what I need.

It definitely existed before, particularly as a revenue stream for some of the smaller universities such as USQ. I think for the big ones it was a bit beneath them, then suddenly COVID came and we had lockdown for a long time in Melbourne.

This is very different in France. Studying to be a teacher at university level is a big deal.
