It's mentioned in the subtitle and the penultimate paragraph.

> The specific "8 hrs" is strange, why not just say hours/days saved? 8 hours is specific, a day is ambiguous. See Chinese 996 for example.

At least in the UN (and the spelling is pushed by Turkish tourism too). Not sure about adoption beyond that, especially outside of Turkey. Personally don't see myself adopting the …

You have to give GPT an objective, like "find an apartment in Florida" and then say something like "given the following options, which one would you interact with to get closer to …

> can they really look at a DOM tree and tell what it is/does Yes, if you encode the DOM as a list of options for ChatGPT to choose from. In fact I developed a proof of concept of …

Turkish, Georgian.

They mention their next step is to produce an alcoholic variant.

Genuinely curious, because I feel like I'm missing something - the owner is apparently disillusioned by nobody caring, but why were people supposed to care in the first place?

I guess somebody was inspired to post this after seeing this recent Ask HN? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34287685 "Main things to consider when building an app for business…

I thought the same thing as you, but spurred by the other commenters, found this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Written_Cantonese

Well if you read the article... “It is very easy to get Bluetooth fitted in the ears. It is attached to the ear temporarily and can be removed. Such a technique was used by a Vyapa…

I think it's worth experimenting with - maybe next to the video camera there can be a "dog smell" emitter. Haha.

I wonder why they didn't try to use a "talk button"? Initiating the call by picking up a specific toy and shaking it seems.. I don't know, unnecessarily complicated. I don't know h…

Ockham is a totally acceptable spelling which requires all three: C, K and H... See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam's_razor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_of_Ockham

I can completely relate to everything you wrote haha. I never mastered ш (which I guess is retroflex fricative?) vs щ and I've completely given up on hard vs. soft sounds in Russia…

That's a pretty unforgiving interpretation of what I wrote. Sounds came out of my mouth and people didn't understand what I was trying to say.

Any grammar is surmountable, but the languages that are truly hard are ones which have sounds or consonant clusters that your native language(s) don't. For example, learning Georgi…

Nice, but I would be more interested if they also took inflation into account. How long would it take to reach 1mm _in todays dollars_? 1mm in 45 years could be something like $330…

Ach, I was hoping this would talk about the Maltese language :( I've spent some months on the island and it's quite fun to try to say words like Ħaż-Żabbar and Xrobb l-Għaġin!
