Interesting, do you think it would also be useful for Bestmen? I love the tone functionality. Also, wonder if there is a cheaper "toast" option? < 1min. I'd pay 5 dollars to help refine a toast I've done in the pas.

You should check out Andy's History of Databases (CMU Databases / Spring 2020) on youtube. He does the entire first class from the streets of Amsterdam because he can't get in his hotel... he's an interesting character a

Fair enough, I figured his high quality content would lead to good conversations, but I guess no one is immune to comment garbage!

I really enjoyed the details, just curious why he has comments turned off on the video? Looks like all his videos have comments turned off... feels like there is a story there?

Oh wow this threw me back to film school. There is a great book by Ester Leslie called Hollywood Flatlands: Animation, Critical Theory and the Avant-Garde that walks through the overlap in animation and the avant-garde movement. It's v

I went through the paper and thought immediately about how did they implement it; I missed they published their code as well. Here is the link for everyone who skimmed past it: https://github.com/mcleish7/arithmetic&#x2

I was at the Tampa concert last year, and I was so distracted by trying to figure out how they controlled the wristbands. They were randomly handed out at the door, and I had no idea what seat I was in. I went through the scenario to flash

I've never heard of the film, but the trailer looks great. Thanks for sharing!

Wow, are the cars tornado chasers like those in the movie Twister? I'd love to read more about those, but really cool to see how all these are moving. Way more things out there then I thought.

I've struggled to get it to generate images, especially when related to memes. For instance, I wanted to extend the "this is fine" image, but Gemini Advanced would not because it was harmful to animals. Most of the image requ

Have you looked for online courses? Here are a few of the books I'd go through around computers, but are you thinking more extensive history of "technology?" Like how we've grown from printing press as innovation? Soul o
