There are many basic things we know about the brain that can be attributed to behavioral science. For example there is a ton of solid research from lesion studies that provide insight on, for example, the function of almost every cortical a

Laws requiring permission from the land owner to use a metal detector and dig vs. needing such permission on your own land seems very different IMO. The English law seems focused on preventing trespassing and digging holes in people's

Yeah what on earth do you mean when you say cops aren't interested in catching people who broke the law, but are interested in catching "someone". That makes no sense. Where did I say anything about justifying power abuse?

When you say criminals , who do you mean exactly - someone who very recently committed a crime? And by catching someone ... catching them do what? I know several officers, and can safely say they are as varied a group as any other profess

True, true. If they are really shaking down passengers for the hell of it to steal their money, that is obviously messed up. It will certainly make me reconsider traveling to Indiana with a duffle bag filled with wads of hundreds.

I think the conclusion of the paper is far more mundane. It's curious that VLM can recognize complex novel objects in a trained category, but cannot perform basic visual tasks that human toddlers can perform (e.g. recognizing when two

Apparently you cannot "unbrick" your apps until you return to this physical brick device. But yeah, you might be able to accomplish the same thing with a printed QR code.

My wild hair theory is that it could be due to sleeping with a fan on every night. Looking back, it seems like I always had a box fan, oscillating fan, or ceiling fan running at night. So that's 8 hours of auditory exposure to the same

Function calling might be one reason. If your app has a lot of custom functions for interacting with tools, fine tuning may be preferred over using context tokens.
