Impressive! I think the most I experienced at the physics department in Aarhus was 70ish students. 200 sounds like a big undertaking.

At the price per student it probably makes sense to run some voluntary trial exams during the semester. This would give students a chance to get acquainted to the format, help them check their understanding and if the voice is very intimida

The solution of differential equations by separation of variables in physics is also notated in an abusive way. You have some differential equation dy/dx = g(x)h(y) You separate the variables by some quick manipulations dy/h(y) =

Anubis is not meant to stop single endpoints from scraping. It's meant to make it harder for massive AI scrapers. The problematic ones evade rate limiting by using many different ip addresses, and make scraping cheaper on themselves by

Later in the article it seems they expect the EU and the US to sign a trade agreement soon-ish, whereafter they can start importing again. So i think the plan is just to wait it out.

I just did today's word and I thought this was pretty fun. M⁻¹M stumped me for a while, but once I got it, it gave me a good chuckle for how obvious it was in hindsight. I do work in physics, so that gives me a head-start on recognizin

I don't think I would classify all stages of fetal development as persons, though obviously that line is crossed at some point during pregnancy. However, I read Judith Thomsons "A Defense of Abortion" at some point and she su

Ah that's embarrassing. I had wanted to link to this article since it contained some context. https://nypost.com/2022/06/30/twitter-suspends-jordan-peters... Thanks for pointing it out, will fix.

The github repository is a godot project. Godot is a game engine. The quickest way is to download godot. Clone the repository and open the folder as a project in godot.

My impression is that the arrest has to do with telegrams failure to cooperate with law enforcement. Hardware manufactorers don't generally have the ability to monitor and moderate what their product is used for. I guess one could imag

I think that's an overly uncharitable read on this approach. Lots of tasks that have difficult thoughts, that need to be thought before they can be completed, also have phases in which work just has to be done. I'm in the middle o

It's related, but as i recall the reason that short pulses cut better has to do with heat transfer. Most heat transfer in metal is due to the vibration in the electrons, being much lighter than the atomic lattice they move in. Very sho

Here's a figure comparing the hole left in a metal surface with normal and femto-second pulses. The difference is quite stark. https://www.researchgate.net/figure/SEM-image-of-the-substra...

Could be that fiber doesn't have any resale value. Whereas copper theft is a somewhat common issue.

That's fair. I get the wrong answer on the gpt3 and gpt4-o models, but there's always some uncertainty involved in these gaps. When I appended "Consider your answer carefully." to my prompt, it answered as though the goa

IMO the word intelligence doesn't seem a good description for the thing LLMs possess, they perform pretty well on some tests measuring it. But they're also sometimes wrong in ways intelligent beings (humans) never are. Like this[0

I think they're talking about linearity as transformations with a linearity score close to 1. They defined that linearity score a little higher up. Such that composing many almost linear transformations will create a total transformati

Obviously it'll be up to some court to decide, but I don't think openai did themselves any favours in a possible voice protection lawsuit, when Sam Altmann tweeted out "her". That makes it seem very much like the imitati

Theres no smoothing involved, it's three distinct domains with different function definitions. Top part is log(x) from [a,\infty), bottom part is -log(-x) from (-\infty,-a] and the middle part is cx from (-a,a). With c chosen to ensure

Symlog is symmetric log. It's not arcsinh, instead it's a normal logarithmic scale, that turns into a linear scale around zero (for example in the range [-1,1]) and then it turns into a negative logarithm on the other side of zero

I don't think your second part is really true at least for the titanic. You can look up the brick list on the Internet[1] and the vast majority of pieces exist in other sets. Some of them may only exist in that colour in the titanic se

I wonder if this is a space where apple (and other webcam providers) would benefit from surfacing some API to the software. To allow an instance to instance control over these confetti features. So context the software is used in, can deci

Yes, moving towards any object at speed in special relativity will make it seems contracted (shorter along the axis you're moving.). So the observer in the garage will see a contracted ladder. Meanwhile an observer seated on the ladder

Since ASL doesn't have a massive corpus of scrabeable training data (at least I would think). It's probably on the harder side when it comes to creating machine translators.

I'm running silverblue but running my containers through distrobox. Both toolbox and distrobox are running on podman under the hood, so it's the same technology as far as I understand. However, distrobox has some interesting featu
