I watched the video and just seeing a machine that old just plugged in without checking the board was triggering then the explosion of a cap for the views was obvious. Nice restoration overall but plugging it in to film a cap exploding is b

I use a local LLM too for my Japanese grammar and sentence improvements to make thme more native. Sadly, every time I tried the fix my japanese page it just says the text I inputted wasn't Japanese. Maybe next time it'll work for

I've personally got more attached to receipts here in Japan since I refuse to pay for any plastic bags (I carry an eco bag in my backpack for big stuff). I just put my purchase in my backpack with a receipt just in case. I don't k

My relative recently sold something on eBay and actually after the deal was done the fees made it to where listing was negative for him. He would have done better to have donated/wrote it off rather than sell on eBay. He also complaine

I think first programming languages need to fit with what the person's motivation is. If they want to do statistics, data analysis and the like then surely Python, R and the like will be a good starting point instead of Bash Shell. Als

I agree, they most closely resemble sandwiches from Western cooking. I think Konbini ones are just bland most of the time. A few of the super markets that make their own seem to taste better in my opinion than the Konbini ones. I do think t

I have recently tried out using GPT4 and other LLMs to help with writing documentation in another language (I speak, read and write it good enough for daily tasks but technical writing is a challenge). I tried it mostly out of the pure fact

This is something that really got me thinking about how to make my own prettier from scratch because I thought it was interesting. Needless to say, having looked at the “tests” for prettier I was kind of lost because I was trying to reverse

I live in Japan as well and I can’t stand not having DST sometimes. Just knowing sunrise was about 3-4 hours before I woke up (8/9am) is enough to throw off my natural sense of time. My wife on the other hand when visiting the USA thou

My pointers are: 1. Learn the rail system and how to navigate it with the Japanese railway apps on a smartphone. I have seen too many tourists with looks of bewilderment at train stations trying to get somewhere. 2. Make every hotel reserva

As someone who grew up near Mexico and learned mostly Mexican Spanish I can agree but having moved to Japão I had to adapt to the fact Brazilian is more common in the area I live in. Several months of dabbling in it has made Spanish look li

Even if he was legally allowed to have said firearm they would have got him for something else I’m sure. I wonder though, as a civilian how do I tell the difference between a law enforcement drone and the drone of Joe citizen?

If AI is your focus I would say learn Python and how to interact with it via Jupyter/ Colab. And once you feel your skills are good then go for learning how to use pandas, numpy and scikit learn on data out there. From there the NN and

I remember just the wind blowing sometimes feeling like the exhaust of car idling. I worked at night and outside for a few years. I got to the point I stopped sweating because my body got used to the heat. After working in an office for a c

That’s the conclusion I came to when I was lifting, running and cycling without any progress aside from the mystery pound or kilo that would come and go. What you eat everyday makes the real difference.

Another explanation that I’ve seen that isn’t religious or alien related made me reconsider my view of them. Perhaps, these people had the tools and knowledge to make crude hot air balloons. A little out there but if they got up some height

This was my experience and I have commented it before. The magic/convention approach is the inferred part of Rails/Ruby culture. Where is the class definition? Well, where are you invoking initialization? This question leads to a

I wish more older Americans understood how these people really work. My parents live in a neighborhood that has gone down hill through the years. They called up a company who did this kind of home buying. Usual visual inspections and the li

Having lived in Japan for over a decade now I can say they have always been a culture that leaves things to computers if possible. Vending machines are everywhere and many places had vending machines that would give you a ticket to get a se

Here in Japan I mainly see Antártica for sale. Only at a Brazilian specialty store did I find a different brand of it. Now, I gotta try them all.

Having grown up in the USA, I was never into AM even though my father was. He would find the most nails on a chalkboard stuff on the dial and leave it there. Probably not the best impression of a medium. Fast forward and now I live in Japan

I feel like my JS skills are way above average so I agree with you that if you have the chops then typing obvious stuff just wastes time. However, new developers or those unfamiliar with the ins and outs of JS need help to understand what a

I likewise want to thank you for the great YouTube videos that you produced. Watching someone interact and do things in CL helps me to understand it better as someone who plays in Scheme/Racket on the weekends.

Having lived in Japan for 10 years with my 11th coming up I have some perspective. I have seen almost every single marvel film that came to theaters here and it was always a packed house. However, I think the fact that the pandemic has scar

Somethings I like in this paper, 1) the AWK programmer tried to do as many statements as possible in an 80 column row (must have loved one liners in Perl), 2) the Lisp implementation just describes the guy being at the kickoff for 4 hours (

If I were to pick it would be Elixir or Lua. Lua because it can be used as an embedded language and it is pretty fast for an interpreted language. Elixir because I have written tiny scripts in it and was impressed that even though it wasn&#
