I just watched this movie tonight and it's one of those where I feel like everyone else saw a different film. For me it was too little butter spread over too much bread. All the interesting parts of the Holmes/Theranos…
From your description it sounds like 112 and 911 function more or less the same, you call and depending on the problem a dispatcher sends police, fire, or medical. The issue described with 911 is that the dispatcher…
Seriously though, how did nobody find this? It's not like you needed an LLM to check the random number generator. Given how much interest there was by cryptography people it is surprising.
They can already handle the streetcars in SF which sometimes let people out in weird places, although I don't know if it's the same as Toronto. It seems like it would be easy to update them to stop for the open doors if…
I think the seeding requirement is not bad, but bytes uploaded is a bad metric when there's just not that much traffic. Since bittorrent prioritizes peers with better bandwidth and so many people use servers with 10G…
Yeah that's a fair point. We shouldn't have to rely on private companies for this kind of thing. On the other hand this is just going through one or more of the big AI companies anyway. So they still get data from…
I can see how LLMs might be useful for this kind of thing but I'm struggling to think of how this will be better than just asking ChatGPT the same questions. The first suggestion I saw was "I just got married, how do I…
And if you leave the tab alone for a while there's one of the classic Windows screensavers
Sure but if we're comparing anecdotes all I'm saying is I've had a great experience. The linked complaints are all for one specific car which I've never driven, so maybe there's some problem with that model or Volvo's…
I agree with most of these but >Smartphones and NFC cards instead of keyfob with buttons Using a phone as a key is super convenient, and having a little credit card sized NFC key works great as a backup. I've rarely had…
I just updated mine to try it out, it definitely looks nicer. https://imgur.com/a/ZGpbqB7
I also watched it in its prime when I was a teenager, but have hardly watched any in the last 10 years. It feels similar to The Simpsons where they're mostly reacting to the latest news and popular culture, which I…
I'm not very inclined towards drawing, I had more fun trying to guess the characters based on the descriptions than actually drawing them
I think it's hard for us to imagine what we could have if not for NAT. Just as an example, any device on your home network could have a web interface which you could access from anywhere using a web browser. All the…
I feel like there are plenty personally. I usually don't have to walk more than a block or two to find one. That article is from 20 years ago by the way
I'm still holding out hope for a modern Fallout in the bay area.
I've wanted to build a geiger counter in the past but I've always been discouraged because it seems unlikely that I would be able to use it for anything other than maybe testing one or two things in my house like smoke…
I want this to work but this isn't enough to get anywhere. Aren't you supposed to have 30 minutes extra fuel minimum just as a safety margin?
>an official app to report incidents of phone theft I can't be the only person to see the irony here. Do they also have a drive-thru to report car theft?
I think their anger is justified. Yes there's not a lot that individual engineers can do to help, but a big part of the problem is that they don't even understand the people they're "helping". These tech gadgets are the…
>Then you also run into visitors that assume it's a normal car and can hit a floor button when the get in, only to realize they've walked into a car without buttons. I work in a building with Destination Dispatch…
Respectfully, calling this misinformation is unwarranted. The featured article is about exactly this. >On 14 February 2019, OpenAI announced a language model called GPT-2 >OpenAI declared GPT-2 was too risky to release,…
Well if you're looking for some kind of statistical analysis of OpenAI's press releases vs their valuation then I don't have anything like that. I also don't have this kind of evidence that running ads during the…
I think you are conflating skepticism about AI companies' motives with skepticism about their capabilities. Even if OpenAI is being 100% honest in their reporting on this it's still good marketing for them. The fact…
This is pretty nice, I might use this if I'm looking to learn more on a topic. I'm always cautious when reading nonfiction because it's hard for me to tell if the author knows what they're talking about when I'm not an…
