I'm not in the US, but as an immigrant myself I can say it's incredibly stressful to be on a working visa during job changes and during a period of unstable economy. Especially if …

> if they trained the model on me visualizing a bear, a fish, and a bird, and then the neural net still outputs "horse" when I visualize a horse Well, the failure cases figure says…

Yeah, I thought the same after seeing this. It's kind of a fun use-case of Diffusion models in this context, but as a scientific paper it seems too overselling. Well, it surely is …

Well to be fair, three of the four apps are Apple ecosystem apps (although Craft now expanding to other platforms). Maybe Roam, Obsidian, Logseq would be better examples of booming…

> IMO Perfomance wise CloudFront and Cloudfront are quite similar. Yes I don't think the capitalization has too much impact.

My portfolio website is 4-lingual and the initial setup was pretty confusing (a bit trial and error until I understood how it works). But now it works very conveniently.

Hugo has a multilingual mode[1] which I am using on two websites. It's a bit confusing at first but works pretty well for me. For content, you basically put blogarticle.en.md and b…

There's a paper which does something similar including an analysis of different statistical models on top of a CIELAB color space. Estimating Color-Concept Associations from Image …

For people who are interested in this kind of idea, there is some research on estimating Word-Color associations. A popular crowd-sourced dataset for this is [1] which contains ave…

While I think general awareness of ethics concerns is needed, I think it might also sometimes bias research directions in itself. I.e., dealing with ethics concerns and/or ethics c…

> It would be a shame if ML also became a field people avoided because they didn't want to contribute to evil, in their own view. Both ethics and privacy considerations have recent…

There's very good advice in there for people in leading or mentoring positions. I am in academia and I noticed many professors are a mixed bag when it comes to such communication s…

Yes, the seeming performance of (especially) neural models compared to traditional models is probably the main factor. Although, some voices[1] argue that traditional or much simpl…

NLP is not my main field but still relevant to my work because I often use models and resources from NLP as tools. I'm also personally interested in Linguistics and Languages so I …

I live in Japan. I once had a package delivered from overseas where their printers couldn’t print CJK fonts and thus the whole address resulted in just small empty boxes. The post …

That I was hinting at in the last sentence. Apple Watch 5 and iPhone 11 came out on the same day and needed watchOS 6 and iOS 13 respectively, so basically, those hardware releases…

Comparing iOS 10~13 with macOS 10.12~15 release dates, macOS seems to always come out 7 days after iOS. This year it has been 12 days after iOS 13.0, instead. Wouldn't really call …

This year all their OSes seem to be riddled with issues at release. - iOS 13.0 was so bad they released 13.1 in less than 5 days, but even now many things are still hit and miss (w…

Apple also has a blog where they discuss (some of) their machine learning results[1]. 1: https://machinelearning.apple.com/

Indeed. I used to use LR Classic on my Mac, but since the new LR got more and more features I switched to using my iPad almost exclusively. I don't think I used LR on my Mac in mon…

NordVPN is not in the list[1] 1: https://vpnpro.com/blog/hidden-vpn-owners-unveiled-97-vpns-2...

Isn't a battery replacement just $199, anyway? Might have been the cheaper alternative even without the recall. I had a similar decision a few weeks ago (contemplating whether to g…

My concern was that there is no clear upgrade path for static websites, if running out of free bandwidth. All per-site addons focus on different kinds of dynamic features (Forms, I…

Most of these smartphones and tablets have homescreens which serve a pretty similar purpose. And people are used to having links to all their favorite apps on it.

I think he is aware. He made a comment about it in the next paragraph. > hey, did you know that accuracy and precision are different?
