    What would be "noise" in this context? Random words, random sentences, random complete short stories?

    How do you "easy" VPN into the US in 1995? The whole consumer VPN industry didn't exist back then.

    I think you're vastly overestimating the average persons ability to use Blender if you can do that in an afternoon; just figuring out how to place a colored cube and the camera pro…

    Given that the pelican looks way better than the dragon, it almost seems like a certainty.

    Usually I wouldn't expect anything to happen to a big company like this, but oof...this is so much worse than the title makes it sound. If they leave something like this in their s…

    Well, yes, it is. That's why you're seeing them take proactive steps to address the problem, like this new policy.

    It's an ironic situation; logically what should be the moat are the models, costing hundreds of millions of investment cost to train and operate so it would make sense if we see di…

    Do you not know how ebay works? You put in the maximum price you're willing to pay, and if you win you're paying 2nd highest bid + 1. So you don't save any money by starting with a…

    Basically every AI agent released in the last 6 months can do this pretty well out of the box? What feature exactly are you missing from these?

    It'd be equally hilarious if that VC money would be used to actually better society by crushing GEMA in court. But realistically, all that will happen is that the "Pauschalabgabe" …

    Please don't pretend to be dumb, "predictable" in this context means that you know the final price of the trip before you start the journey, instead of having an odometer. And rand…

    Taxis and B&Bs and Hotels all still exist and compete with Uber and AirBnB. Even at the same price there are valid reasons why many people prefer an Uber over a Taxi, in particular…

    If the problem starts to become big enough, I'd expect airsoft venues to offer special streaming or non-streaming times, depending on which group is bigger. Similar to how Saunas o…

    H200 rental prices currently start at $2.35 per hour, or $1700 per month. Even if you just rent for 4h a day, the $200 subscription is still quite a bit cheaper. And I'm not even s…

    For me, I actually feel much more motivated to write good and accurate documentation knowing there will be at least one reader who is going to look at it very closely and will atte…

    That's why it's just "mostly" false, but 'empty' is a word with a specific meaning, and claim here was that the port is literally empty of ships. (or, in the case of the Twitter me…

    Sure, but then it's less of a fun side business and just becomes straight up smuggling.

    The playbook is obvious - if Trump loses, Vance refuses to certify the election results due to "fraud", Republican states will produce alternate lists of electors that vote for Tru…

    That comparison also shows that a recognizable brand alone can easily be worth more than 100 billion; Coca-Cola also has competition that offers similar products and zero tech adva…

    Used to. If they're going to start a trade war, pull out of NATO and invade Greenland instead, there'll not be much soft power left to drag Europe anywhere.

    If the announced spending target is true, this will be a strategic project for the US exceeding Biden's stimulus acts in scale. I think it would be pretty normal in any country to …
