It's unfortunate that there aren't any high quality projects for the other way around - text to speech. By high quality I mean something as good as Tacotron 2 [1]. However, I have …

They're also squatting the putty.org domain to advertise their software, which is pretty bad-mannered.

Examine.com does NOT sell vitamins/supplements. They collect and analyze available research, and the result of that process is their product (in the form of guides etc).

If you're looking for performance, don't go with Vivaldi, at least if you use many tabs. With many tabs (>= 100 or so), it becomes really sluggish. For example, opening a link in a…

I do not find it bizarre to pose that it could be possible to use another set of primitives (than biochemical ones) to create something analogous to the higher level structure in a…

No, the issue is with the very premise, then. It is not clear that consciousness necessarily only emerges from a neurochemical process. What was basically said was "We do not know …

> Even current ("real") intelligence can do that. No it can't. A biological creature's output is not deterministic from its input and can be sensitive to conditions not anticipated…

It seems there were/are a couple of workarounds for setting third party cookies in Safari. One was to send a POST request in a hidden iframe using javascript. This was supposedly w…

For anyone else looking, the parent probably meant 'easystroke': https://github.com/thjaeger/easystroke It's likely available from your package manager.

The problem is that Firefox was the last well supported browser that allowed for power user features. With this change, Firefox targets the lowest common denominator just like ever…

That looks like opt-out (it's named "telemetry.enableTelemetry" and has "'default': true").

See under the status headline on http://bcachefs.org/ and decide for yourself whether that's good enough for your use case.

That setting will not work in the final release. See https://wiki.mozilla.org/Add-ons/Firefox57#Compat._Table

The Tinyx tool mentioned in the paper doesn't seem to be published anywhere. It doesn't help that the name was already in use (by a minimal X11 server).

According to Wikipedia, Plan 9 has been using fossil as the default file system since 2003.

Alright then: > Step 1: work crazy hard. Step 2: be better than anyone else. Step 3: work crazy hard. FTFY.

And the reasoning behind this sentiment usually is that the jokes in the show are made at the characters' expense - people watching the show laugh at them, not with them. Here's an…

VS2017 opens the correct documentation most of the time, and in the default web browser. For C++, cppreference provides archives of all their docs: http://en.cppreference.com/w/Cpp…

The fault for this really lies with Python 2's handling of strings/unicode/character sets, and not UTF-8 itself.

And this is why many trackers have departed from purely ratio-based requirements. A couple examples: "Required ratio" based on percentage of "snatched" (i.e. downloaded) torrents y…

Redacted (like the late What.CD, which it aims to replace) has interviews ( https://interviewfor.red/en/index.html ). Most private trackers requires an invite (from someone who is …

Windows already has the feature covered in the blog post (in 10 it supports quarters). There are also a number of third party tiling window managers.

A flag for cat won't help you - it's your shell that does the redirection. You're looking for `set -o noclobber` (same as `set -C`).

This will work fine until the day when you mistype >> into >, and all your notes are gone.

It also significantly changes how you experience them.
