The super league wasn't UEFA's doing at all. The top clubs themselves tried to break away and self-organize, and they ultimately won some concessions from UEFA (new CL format, more CL money to the big teams)

So what. The point of the World Cup is a worldwide celebration of soccer, interchange of culture. It belongs to the people. It's one of the only things left whose purpose is not just to make as much money as possible.

There's still the big cost of time spent working on it without making money from having a job.

I read it as the privilege of being able to choose a lower paying job (that lets you sleep better at night, be more fulfilled, etc)

I don't see it. What are the consequences of, for example, staring at the live flight map and only the live flight map for a 7 hour flight [1]? Sounds boring as hell but you're not going to like bore yourself insane [1] https:&#x

IMO it is a complete bastardization of the phrase. The genz/alpha version is a noble form of asceticism, while the 'original' meaning is more a hedonistic indulgence without regard for consequences to yourself or others.

Ha! I have it too. Doesn't feel like 20% but we're out here

Awesome! I someday hope to find the time to make something like this for soccer - individual skill drills as well as gameplay analysis. Care to share any technical details about how your analysis pipeline works? :)

Am I missing it or is the source code not available?

I'm sure the origins of CUDA are very interesting in their own right, and it cannot be denied that the evolution of the GPU and GPU programming has had a huge impact on the growth of the field.. but, without the specific work of these

I enjoyed the Machineries of Empire trilogy by Yoon Ha Lee. It also is labelled a space opera and has a decent amount of naval warfare in space

I'm learning this stuff because I think it's fascinating. To be fair I know I'm light years behind the cutting-edge so I feel I can sleep assured that I won't take too much of the blame for having created our new AI over

As an aside, it would be cool if music could also be an input to these kinds of generative models, such that the generated image somehow matches the feeling or mood of the music.

I hope that someday there will be an option for an electric car with a manual transmission. Regardless of how small the market would be and how little practical sense it would make

That reminds me of a thread here from a few weeks ago about how somebody was training an ML model to add noise to video, so that the noise-free version of the video can be compressed better but then the noise can be added at playback to mai
