They got beat up because of what they said and their behavior, not because of where they were from.

Are you happy? Is the vibe nice? Are people friendly? Are you being paid a fair amount or can you get more at an other job? Do they respect your private life, are they stressing you out? How is the commute?

There are other things to consider then industry best practices. You might very well end up in a place that treats you like shit, is much farther and let’s you go the moment they don’t need you.

I overpressure myself, as if I was constipated, each time I get cravings. I basically make my body as uncomfortable as I can so it learns that cravings=pain.

In the past, I’ve used hand rolled tobacco to ween myself off. It’s a lot harder to just grab a smoke when driving for instance. But cold turkey is best. I usually wait until I get sick before starting stopping since it tends to skip the nasty craving in the first few days. After a week or two, it gets much easier.

Remember, having a smoke every now and then will work until it doesn’t.

You can pop it yourself, you just need something sharp enough.

Lemmy let’s them respond to you even when blocked. Kind of funny to block someone for harassment and still see a comment removed pop up behind one of my comments a few hours later.

I find it fair in a way, I just wish it hid it from me completely since curiosity usually gets the best out of me. I’ve only had to block one person this whole time anyways, so it’s really not the end of the world either.

Why use a search engine at all when you can have your browser directly text your mom.

What are you even on about? Each time I see your username, it’s always just the worst take possible.

It’s 400 hours of audio, the transcripts ended up being 5 million words, and only snippets of it are useful.

These important limitations highlight why it’s still important to have humans involved in the analysis process here. The NYT notes that, after querying its LLMs to help identify “topics of interest” and “recurring themes,” its reporters “then manually reviewed each passage and used our own judgment to determine the meaning and relevance of each clip… Every quote and video clip from the meetings in this article was checked against the original recording to ensure it was accurate, correctly represented the speaker’s meaning and fairly represented the context in which it was said.”

It’s literally the paragraph right after.

They verify it.

I was actually thinking of setting up something similar for the mountain of ufo related docs they keep dropping every few months. They tend to use obscure words and even slip in typos so just searching through them doesn’t work very well.

Target demographic: lolicons

publicly-traded German high-performance computing (HPC) firm ParTec AG, whose CEO Bernhard Frohwitter has considerable expertise in patent monetization.

“Patent monetization” is an interesting way to put it.

As a side note, I love how the article is structured.

Whisper has been known to hallucinate during long moments of silence. Most of their examples though are most likely due to bad audio quality.

I use whisper quite a bit and it will fumble a word here or there but never to the extent that is being shown in the article.

You would need a pretty good thickness of water and it becomes complicated shipping it up into space.

Every other store, but at a higher price point.

It’s the same shit everywhere, the government is just making sure you can’t buy direct.

“I’m usually turning around and stopping the operation to see a CT scan; looking to see what happened with the endoscopy [another small camera that provides a closer look at organs]; looking at the monitor for the heart rate,” Horgan says.

Horgan says that wearing headsets during surgeries has improved his effectiveness while lowering his risk of injury.

Just if it wasn’t clear to anyone else.

Such measurable biometric characteristics include facial features, gait, voice, or patterns in the iris of your eye.

It is when you are using neural networks to do the matching. It’s one of the main point of the Europe Unions AI bill which outlaws the use of machine learning tools like these on citizens by goverments or compagnies. There’s a couple of exceptions mostly when it’s a national security issue.

Using public facing data to build machine learning model is not against copyright laws. There is a transformative clause for a reason.

Strengthening copyright laws will only hurt the open source scene and give companies like openai and google a soft monopoly.

Not only that but the money is going to go to data brokers and platforms like reddit and getty. Individuals aren’t getting a dime.

It makes it seems worse. His parents knew he was having problems and still left a gun within easy reach.

I’m mostly looking for something that will comb news sites and tech blogs an hour before I get up and make me curated daily commentary.

I like podcasts but if I’m switching off audio books, it’s mostly because I’m having trouble concentrating. Music with a news tidbit every 15 minutes isn’t as taxing, specially on the drive back, but makes it a lot more interesting then just music alone.
