    To some extend I agree, that if you are professional in some are, current LLMs may not solve the issues you are facing. But, while I consider myself as "expert" in one very specifi…

    Serious question. What is the chance this video has been deepfaked? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENlL-Uru-cM&ab_channel=CNBCT...

    Just recently I skipped buying Samsung TV because I feared to get unwanted advertisement in home screen. Is that really the case?

    Bluetooth is great up to the point when you want to have video in sync with audio. For video/audio editing or even gaming it is a problem.

    My background is in image processing and I can see quite clearly that the high frequency noise happens when you subtract two images, one of which is shifted by half-pixel for insta…

    I am not expert, but if you don't use noise cancellation you would probably do better with standard headphones where you pay for the sound quality instead.

    I purchased Bose QC-35 II as well. I don't have chemical burns, but after a while of wearing my ears become really sensitive. I feel strange pain while wearing them. This applies o…

    I am honestly shocked by that! When you google authors name, you get bunch of anime faces + GAN research papers. So clearly, this is not a joke, but his personal interest/fetish de…

    If you find this interesting, you may also consider canny edge detector.

    To a colorblind person (me included), this discussion is absolutely irrelevant. Why not to focus on edges instead? A black and white picture would solve all such nonsense.

    Does the author refer to the whole AI community, when using the word "we"?

    This is important point indeed. Here is what helps myself, when thinking about pixels. - pixels are point samples in 2D space - their position is exact - position of of top-left po…

    I was wondering, how much different the simulation would be from stock models from Turbosquid: https://www.turbosquid.com/3d-models/formula-1-season-2020-3... The article mentions …

    Williams engine is supplied by Mercedes, tires are shared from Pirelli. But sure there are other parameters as well apart from aerodynamics.

    > "I tried to match my lapsim program to telemetry from the 2020 Spanish GP, I arrived at CL = -5.421 and CD = 1.150" This is very interesting. Does it mean that the author has acc…

    Interesting point, which a little bit implies that Williams would have the best aerodynamics by now. But clearly that is still not the case. So I am quite skeptical, whether CFD ti…

    If you subscribe to F1TV you get timing data in form of additional screen which you can view. Apart of that, there were several attempts in the past to extract timing data from fro…

    Since Williams defines the very bottom of the race grid, they don't have much to hide in terms of technology. So releasing a 3D model of their car in this form is nothing that woul…

    While I believe this is interesting project, I got really distracted by the PR around it. "scientist love flow chart" is like talking to babies and making fun of science at the sam…

    I personally use more or less 3 stages. 1. whiteboard and marker - explore ideas, big-picture thinking, fast iterations. 2. paper notebook - things that emerged from point 1 are mo…
