The one-shot game is definitely the hardest one here by a long shot, no idea why this is considered easier than having a model on pager duty. Aside from needing to generate coheren…

What happens to that labor if everyone that would hire them previously is now using cheaper artificial labor? They don't exactly have the capital to make use of artificial labor th…

Given that the moon is about 0.5 degrees in diameter from Earth, shouldn't we expect to see the stars and comet much more blurred than they are here though? Or the ground if it's s…

"Don't ask to ask, just ask" is great in general, but if I tell someone this, I'm not trying to schedule a single call. It's more asking for permission to call whenever. Depending …

Good read (as is the next article in the series), but you can tell it hasn't been proofread due to "paypa׀.com" being described as a danger. Maybe in a different font than the webs…

Costa Rica and Paraguay coverage was added recently (within the last year iirc). The author notes Paraguay as an example of a country that was not yet in the dataset they sourced f…

I might be misunderstanding something about atproto, but isn't it always possible to export data from bluesky because all it takes is reading your data, which is done by any app in…

I believe diffusion image models learn to model a reverse-noising function, rather than reverse-blurring.

Got a fun little heart-shaped guy that morphs into a ditto when animated here, love the variety! https://muffinman.io/invaders/#/size:9/main-seed:officer-clo...

Does this do anything differently from https://backloggd.com/ ? I've been using Backloggd a lot over the past year and I'm not sure how this is different (aside from being ad-free,…

What do you mean by custom maps? What do you include/exclude from them, and how do you make them?

Seems most likely to be a training data issue, the first release of llm was in 2023 whereas shot-scraper's was in 2022.

> Recent Armenia vs Azerbaijan (supported by Turkey) war. More tension on border. I completely missed the Armenia/Azerbaijan conflict, but from what I can tell, tensions there don'…

I did in fact miss this, thanks. I'm not as convinced by other commenters' references to Putin's nuclear threats, but the Middle East erupting into a broader conflict with the US j…

What makes you say teetering on the edge of world war? Is there some recent news I've missed?

Fun implementation! There's currently a bug that allows the same number to appear twice after a combination step (I was able to perform 2,3,7,5->5,7,5)

This absolutely would be called AI 10 years ago. Yes, it's a machine learning task, but a computer program you can speak with would certainly qualify as AI to anyone 10 years ago, …

Out of curiosity, what makes people prefer desktop apps for mail over just visiting the browser version? The idea of downloading a desktop app for something I can do in the browser…

I can't do the math to determine this more rigorously, but my intuition tells me you can do something analogous to the Hairy Ball Theorem to prove that there exists a point within …

Out of curiosity, from someone who has never worked with non-euclidean geometry, what does it mean for a path to be curved in non-Euclidean space? My outsider understanding of curv…

Sure, but if you're a creature that's useful to humans, you'll find that you'll either get domesticated and lose all your freedom or get hunted to near (or total) extinction. Any l…

Enabling and endorsement are two different things, no need to conflate the two. If I'm a dentist and tell my patient that they could use any toothpaste they want but that I don't r…

What are some examples? I finally got around to using a tiling window manager this week and have been loving it, but would love a browser without a status bar to go with it
