I extracted all Wikidata items with geocoordinates, joined them with pageview statistics [1] and wikipedia pagerank scores [2] to define their label sizes. For some entities withou…

I thought you were referring to this slightly humorous video about the same topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dO9Lm_CXz0

Cool! I made something similar with the same datasets a year ago, but with geocoordinates instead of timestamps: https://theilemail.de/wikipage/ It shows a zoomable map with the "m…

The creator of UMAP and PyNNDescent tried to let Opus 4.5 translate PyNNDescent from Python to Rust

No, it is not as good as Veo, but better than Grok, I would say. Definitely better than what was available 2 years ago. And it is only a 7B research model!

Yes, of course I do ignore a lot in that calculation. I just wanted to calculate the biggest possible usefulness of this cable. Especially the resistance losses could be quite disa…

To some degree, yes. I just looked it up and the EU produced ~2500GWh in 2023, which is around 280 GW on average.

If I (and only I) owned such a cable from Europe to the US, how much money could I make by buying cheap solar energy from the bright side and selling it to the dark side of the Atl…

I wonder if you could implement it with only static hosting? We would need to split the index into a lot of smaller files that can be practically downloaded by browsers, maybe 20 M…

It is not sufficient to understand the content very well, you also have to understand the state of the mind of your pupils very well.

I think there are pretty strong traces of pro-china manipulation on Tiktok. See https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/24/briefing/tiktok-ban-bill-... Content about something like Hong-Ko…

Can you elaborate? I had no problem with DuckDB and a few TB of data. But it depends on what exactly you do with it, of course.

Wait, you eat only beef? Or beef as the only source of meat?

anymore??

I made a similar map but with tiles that only load of you zoom in far enough: tomthe.github.io/hackmap/ (Sorry for posting my link so often) That way it has to load only a few mega…

Nice introduction, but I think that ranking the models purely by their input token limits is not a useful exercise. Looking at the MTEB leaderboard is better (although a lot of the…

Thank you, I really like the default tutorial how one can play with it. Is it possible to visualize data with this?
