    It seems important to support this sort of diversity and openness in AI. Even if you don’t necessarily support the US, avoiding any single bloc dominating this technology is valuab…

    I’d like to have one delivered to my neighbour on Venus please, curious what would happen.

    Wouldn’t the bonus points be better allocated to making the boats from the carbon you’re wanting to sequester, so they don’t have to go back up-river?

    Do you happen to have any good references for GAR implementation?

    I don’t think that there is anything in the article that disagrees with this.

    Given the grind has already been specified as an espresso-level of fineness (we're talking about a cold brew recipe), most of the grinds are going to be able to get through the met…

    Not the poster you're asking but they might have imagined the stirring being vigorous enough to keep the liquid moving during the entire heating period.

    Does this structure explain the organisational response to the (myriad) accounts of terrible behaviour by individuals within it at many levels?

    The “mixture of experts” concept in LLMs is a way of training a single model, it’s not based on training many different models (although that was the idea when the term was origina…

    The main tech is a very anti-reflective coating; the best I've seen on a mainstream TV. It is backlit but in Art Mode the backlight is turned down (you can control how much and the…

    Their Art Store promotion is annoying persistent but not actually required if you put images onto a USB and have it slurp them up; all you need to do is ignore their requests for s…

    They make it superficially closed but it's pretty simple to get around it with a USB drive. Really all you have to do is ignore their subscription system and size your images to ma…

    Likewise for narrower keys on the piano, surely.

    If the hammer isn't mechanically coupled to the keys he could also have addressed functionality such as the width of the keys instead of just aesthetics. The standard size piano ke…

    Pity he didn't address functionality such as the width of the keys -- the standard size is too wide for most female hands and many men.

    Hi Timo, is there a document somewhere that describes how Conduit compares feature-wise to Synapse or to the Matrix spec? It’s not clear to me if the goal to develop a fully-featur…

    Comment #36938168

    How does this relate to Synapse? Dendrite tests against https://github.com/matrix-org/sytest and has issues for “are we synapse yet” — I can’t see any discussion of this for Condui…

    Sky in Australia is still owned by News Corp/Murdoch, while they sold Sky in Europe to Comcast.

    2.5°C seems very cold for a fridge and is likely well below the standard that the EU energy label uses (for reference, FDA recommends 4°C). How warm do you keep the kitchen that it…
