Doesn't surprise me at all and seems like a good solution to the problem of human verification. It won't take long for AI to catch up to that, but this captcha method might hold fo…

The talk is still not available on YouTube? What takes them so long?

I heard all those stories about Von Neumann working like that. According to a biography, his wife once designated a room as his office and he became very angry about that since it …

This guy is building a CNC machine and still thinks he's not an engineer.
