Are there good ESP32-based starter kits with manual books which a kid can learn from? I was looking for an Arduino-like kit as a Christmas gift, and it seems that Arduino kits are unbeatable. The starter kit is available in 10 languages and comes with a project booklet. All ESP32-based products seem to be better suited for more advanced users and seem to have a steeper learning curve.
Pro Spotify: existing playlists and history, better artists info, better UI.
YouTube Music is both better and worse: UI has some usability issues and unfortunately it shares likes and playlists with the normal YouTube account, as a library it has lots of crap uploaded by YouTube users, often wrong metadata, but thanks to that it also has some niche artists and recordings which are not available on other platforms.
That's probably driven by some kind of an AR headset. AR can't properly render solids, so it is stuck with having everything transparent. Now it won't look worse than everything else.
Exactly. Some copyright holders do license their work for AI training. It certainly happens in the music industry, but I don't see why texts would be any different. The exception would harm their business.
> most LLM users will ~always choose the smartest model
Most LLM users will choose the cheapest model which is good enough.
I think that LLMs' performance is already "good enough" for a lot of applications. We're in the diminishing returns part of the curve.
There are two other concerns:
1. being able to run the model on trusted infrastructure locally (so some jerk won't turn it off on a whim, and the data will remain safe and comply with the local data protection laws and policies)
2. having good tools to create AI applications (like how easy it is to fine-tune it to customer needs)
> how much the addition of copyrighted material affects how smart the resulting model is
Copyrighted material improve the models, not by making it smart, but more factually correct, because it will be trained on reputable, reliable and up-to-date sources.
Copyrighted material includes works by authors from outside the US. By Berne convention, the exceptions which any country may introduce must not "conflict with a normal exploitation of the work" and "unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests of the author". So if at least one French author does license their work for AI training, then any exception of this kind will harm their legitimate interests and rob them of potential income from normal exploitation of the work.
If the US can harm authors from other countries, then other countries may be willing to reciprocate to American copyright holders, and introduce exceptions which allow free use of the US copyrighted material for some specific purposes they deem important.
IANAL, but it is a slippery slope, and it may hurt everyone. Who has more to lose?
I would also like to point out that English spelling is obsolete and should be abolished (/s). The text of the CRLF abolition proposal itself contains more digraphs, trigraphs, diphthongs, and silent letters than line-ending sequences. The last letter of the word "obsolete" is not necessary. "Should" can be written as only three letters in Shavian "𐑖𐑫𐑛".
According to ChatGPT, the original proposal had:
Number of sentences: 60
Number of diphthongs: 128 (pairs of vowels in the same syllable like "ai", "ea", etc.)
Number of digraphs: 225 (pairs of letters representing a single sound, like "th", "ch", etc.)
Number of trigraphs: 1 (three-letter combinations representing a single sound, like "sch")
Number of silent letters: 15 (common silent letter patterns like "kn", "mb", etc.)
For all intents and purposes, CRLF is just another digraph.
The latter. Plus 2 EUR/month for ad-free video. On top of 50 to 90 EUR/year for Amazon Prime.
If we consider it as a sneaky way to increase prices, it's less steep than YouTube Premium price hike. At least you can ignore Prime Video an get all the other benefits for the same price as before.
- WebKit is honoring the cookie's SameSite=None attribute when the cookie is set by server in this case the IdP
- Attempts to set this attribute from the client side (from the app interacting with the iOS cookie store) have been unsuccessful. For example, by setting `.sameSitePolicy = "none"`
- Safari Web Inspector shows the option to set the cookie's SameSite attribute to None, it however, does not get honored either, and is immediately reverted.
If learning durations were log-normally distributed, how would people be able to graduate from universities and finish studies, mostly in time? Or accomplish anything substantial in their limited time span?
I agree that distribution of most human tasks' duration is skewed (not necessarily distributed log-normally), but these tasks can still have a reasonable upper bound for completion. The success is not binary. Like in grading, we need to accept that some projects will get an A, and some will get only B or C, and it's still OK. Some may fail.
Visit reddit, and you'll see that many of these Europeans who are against immigration are specifically against male immigrants with Black African and North African heritage. I think that there's a lot of racism in these sentiments. More than just a generic xenophobia.
With Logic Pro for iPad they now have applications for all their traditional Mac use cases on iPad. If anything, it feels like Apple is pushing for a switch from low-tier Macs to iPad Pro.
And they surely can sell more gadgets and accessories for an iPad than for a laptop.
