The problem with french subtitles is that for many popular series/movies subtitles don't match the actual french speech. Looks like they are just translating English subtitles separately or something.

Maybe https://www.roc-lang.org/ ? It's not production ready, I just saw nice talk by Richard Feldman [1] about it and it's inspired by Elm. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzfy4EKwG_Y

It's not needed for everybody to watch this footage, summary video can be presented. It just should be linked somewhere for those who want to see the results and verify summary themselves.

Thanks for the article. But the goal of the graphs should be to show level of change and let graph speak for itself, if it's high or low. If they were anchored at 0 it would actually allow to see visual difference and for me personally

Regardless of the results, that is very disingenuous way of showing up charts, like floor being ~1000 and first result having 2500 score and second 1000, basically being on the floor, even though real difference is 2.5 times.

Apple hardware and software are closely linked, it's not like you can use Rosetta2 on any other hardware of your choice.

It also creates incentive for short traders to create negative publicity.

Yes, it's weird that car decided to turn right. But I don't agree that's it's easy to speculate that it would hit the pedestrians, they were pretty far. I would think some emergency braking would take over or something.

I doubt DMCA came from Tesla, they let worse videos take thousands of views on youtube and never done anything.

Yep, that's all true, but it was several meters away from them, far from hitting.

"Car doesn't yield to pedestrians". For "almost hit" I would expect car to run by pedestrian in less than half a meter or for pedestrian having to react quickly to avoid car.

They literally killed this vaccine, so it's anti-vax by definition in result.

To be fair that chart only starts in 1900, so you can't see 18th century here. And in the wikipedia page of this chart it says "By 1900, bowhead, gray, northern humpback and right whales were nearly extinct, and whaling had declin

yeah, the real winners here seems to be lawyers.

When Texas removed mask mandate in March there were such claims as well ("it will be so bad, Texas is doomed"), but nothing happened and cases continued to go down as in rest of the country.

Cases don't matter, hospital admissions also show sign of wave going down. And that doesn't depend on people's mood.

What would be competitive angle? What percentage of users do you think would care if your app transfers not 445kb but 345kb (sincere question)? I just always was skeptical about "reducing sizes" just for its own sake, and not in t

If you plan for such model beforehand you already might be lowering overall efficiency. You know that you can't get the whole thing you want as one piece, but you plan "one third now, another third in a couple of months and the la

Their method of estimation is not far from guessing and they even say themselves, that accuracy is "low".

Youtube since recently (or I just noticed it) has very good auto-CC, their voice recognition even works in noisier videos.

I don't need "them" to analyse it, I want it for myself.

Dislikes are good not just for identifying bad videos, but also good videos. You can see it in the like/dislike ratio. The higher the better, videos with ratio around >98-99% have very high probability of being good etc

Only for infinite number of parallelized processors?

They do sell them without built in screens too - Mac Mini for example.

Yes, extremely annoying and not adding any security.

Moderna received WARP funding though, I think they definitely were on the list of most promising vaccines. There were 6 most promising western vaccines: Biontech, Moderna, J&J, Oxford, Novavax and Sanofi. It was clear they were the ones

Do you have any data/links for "ramping up production"? What exactly was done, how many doses vaccines were available at the moment of approval etc?
29.
by aquadrop 6y ago
Yes, I was wondering that very much myself. I remember talks about ramping up production preemptively, starting from spring, to have large stock of vaccine available when they are approved. Bill Gates talked about that specifically, taking

Youtube's auto CC feature gotten very good lately, I think it can handle most of the stuff with clear sound. So hopefully auto CC will help to solve this unfortunate paradox of accessibility.
