There is a group that is attempting to communicate with whales by training a transformer based model on whale sounds. https://www.projectceti.org/

Ha! I had to do something similar, I think for Texas Instruments? I signed up for an account and for some reason could not login. Apparently on the client side they were limiting h…

I sent over a cgit web page for a take home assessment and the interviewer was horribly confused. I assume they have never seen anything apart from github before...

I will be visiting China later this year, any chance I can get one while I'm there via something like TaoBao to save on tax and shipping?

Might just be normal mode? I know that some gaming monitors strobe the backlight in order to reduce motion blur, maybe reader mode just turns that off.

Same thing happened to me! Did you manage to fix it?

English is written left to write. If you use your left hand to write, your hand will glide over ink that's still wet.

Those schematics look surprisingly similar to ladder logic. I always thought that ladder logic for programming PLCs makes absolutely no sense compared to a proper programming langu…

I would've liked to see an explanation that includes the weight of water being displaced. That would also explain how a steel ship with an open top is also able to float.

Is this an issue with the price of sugar? From the video, it seems like they have already fermented the beans, turning it into some basic dark chocolate after that shouldn't be too…

Interestingly, the steam engines of the Titanic made use of the vacuum generated by condensing steam to extract additional energy from steam that's below atmospheric pressure. http…

The wiki.vg website has a list of quite a few server implementations, even some written in Rust! That site also has extensive documentation of the Minecraft protocol if you want to…

That battery is for load shifting from peak times to off-peak times and also to provide bridging power while other generators start up. If you want reliable purely green power, you…

That image makes me appreciate just how slowly most plants grow and move. Imagining that bundle of dandelions writhing around triggers the same sort of visceral reaction as seeing …

This very same site also supports Chinese, along with plenty of other languages! It's linked in the footer. https://youglish.com/chinese

This makes me wonder what would happen if neural networks contain manually programmed components. It seems like trivial components such as detecting DNA sequences could be programm…

If you're referring to the outdated certificates, I installed Let's Encrypt's ISRG Root X1 Certificate onto my old iPad 4 and that seems to have taken care of it. Local sites serve…

From the Readme, their eventual plan for the project is to be able to serve the client through the web browser which would mean that almost all tablets would be supported.

The way Windows handles it seems to be that hardware rendering of the pointer is turned off when you drag around windows. It was very obvious when I was using f.lux, the bright whi…
