This is a subtweet in blog form. Without concrete examples or critiques it isn’t any more substantial than whining about “kids these days” Edit: I admit there are plenty of concrete critiques in the article, but if we’re supposed to stand u

This feels less like changing the landscape and more like trying to stop a new neighbor from building a four-level shopping complex in front of your beach-front property while also strip-mining the forest behind. As for whether the Times sh

It sounds like the alternate path you're suggesting is for NYT to stop being wrong and let OpenAI continue being right, which doesn't sound much like a compromise to me.

Read the manual of your washer. I’m willing to bet it instructs you to run the tap until it’s hot before you start the dishwasher. This is common for American dishwashers, because they can’t get the water hot enough, fast enough, for the pr

What your manual says is common to most dishwashers. You can tell if your dishwasher has a pre-wash cycle if it does a short run, then you hear it draining, and then it does a longer full run. I expect it probably does. Also, you can always

Is your comment here to refute a claim you saw somewhere, or to simply point this out? I wouldn’t expect this to be real-time, given the complexity, nor do I believe it needs to be in order to be useful.

I see this a lot, and it is a mild pet peeve of mine as well. Along the same lines, since I’m using Gundam as an example in this thread, I’ll point to a technology in the franchise called “psycommu” (pronounced in dubs as psy-com-moo) which

This is a problem as well, but what I see often is what seems to be the cheapest speech recognition software they could find auto-transcribing the dub, and it falls over any time it meets a name or word it can’t guess out of like to 1,000 m

I agree that technically this would be incorrect, but I’d still appreciate the option to choose the subtitle track from the original language over the horrible auto-generated subtitle track.

For at least the past year, subtitles under dubs have been horrendous. I’ve watched a handful of Gundam series over this period, and while the subtitles under the Japanese audio are usually fine, the captions that run under the English audi
