They already have human segmenters segmenting existing scrolls, which presumably is used to train the program in much the same way.

You haven't substantiated why nobody else could make use of WebGPU. Are Google the only ones who can understand Beacons because they make $300B/year? GPU is hard, but it doesn't take billions to figure out.

Interestingly, if you ever scan a FedEx barcode, they use tons of ASCII separator characters. About the only time I've seen them significantly used though.

I'm working on my Master's in Statistics, so I feel I can comment on some of what's going on here (although there are others more experienced than me in the comments as well, and I generally agree with their assessments). I&#

I'm actually actively researching the Grimms tales - I'm glad you linked to Zipe's translation! I think he has the most accurate and complete English translation out there, but it's still being frequently overlooked for

Nvidia is a great example of why a flat rule like this wouldn't work. Nvidia pretty much just does one, pretty specialized thing (GPUs) and trying to break it up into >10 pieces worth <$20B each (approximate median GDP of African

I should say: the real difficulty is service, but if there's any way to get in contact with you, there's at least a chance it will be accepted as good service. There was famously a recent case where a defendant known only by a Bit

File a lawsuit against a John/Jane Doe defendant(s) and describe who the defendants are, e.g., the people who code and maintain the emulator. Maybe a little harder than if you had the names but not by a lot.

You can still be sued. At that point, you either: a) defend yourself as normal, while attempting to maintain anonymity (difficult & doesn't solve anything) b) let the case go to default judgement (for likely an enormous amount of m

Bad evidence is not the same thing as inadmissible evidence. Evidence is admitted, and then the fact finder determines whether to consider it, and how much weight to give it. It is likely that surveillance video will be slightly less credib

Part of Liebowitz's problem was that he did ~0 research before filing a lawsuit. Often the only thing he did was send the photographer a list of URLs and ask for "GO" or "NO GO" for each one. In at least some cases

Flash memory relies on cells keeping charged, but the electrons can slowly leak and discharge the cells over time. It looks like the commonly claimed number is 10 years, but there's no clear answer. Hard drives also aren't great a

Nothing's disappearing, except the binaries and source. Good-quality archives will surely be assembled, but it at a minimum makes Citra significantly harder to access.

Did you read the article? It's about what happens in negative numbers. Of course everyone agrees that 7/2=3 in integer division, but -7/2 is less obvious.

Indeed, which is why I felt the need to call it out here. I'm not certain if the files on question actually happened to be valid C but whether that's a meaningful mistake regardless is left to the reader to decide.

I ran a quick test on 100 semi-random files I had laying around. Of those, 81 were detected correctly, 6 were detected as the wrong file type, and 12 were detected with an unspecific file type (unknown binary/generic text) when a more

From elsewhere in this thread, it appears that Magika detects far fewer file types than file (116 vs ~1600), which makes sense. For file, you just need to drop in a few rules to add a new, somewhat obscure type. An AI approach like Magika w

There's a bit of a "bug" I found where Bernard interprets backslashes in file paths literally and URL-encodes them as %5C, whereas modern browsers automatically correct them to /. You could definitely argue that the URL

Also, I don't use the services that they're combining for hours a day anyways? So I have a hard time seeing why I would with Texts. And for 50¢/day... I can switch between a couple tabs every once in a while.
