Looks cool! May also be interested in Allen AI's OCR tool olmOCR they just released too [1][2]. They say "convert a million PDF pages for only $190 USD". [1] https://github.com/allenai/olmocr [2] https:

Vow is a lab grown meat company taking this path. Last year they made a mammoth meatball that used mammoth dna with some elephant dna. I think this is a smart approach, allows them to charge higher prices for a unique experience. [1] Other

Of course winter does not happen at the same time throughout the world. Would be interesting to see if it does the same if asked in a language spoken in the southern hemisphere.

You can use log2ram [0] to reduce the number of writes to the SD card. That's what I'm doing at the moment and haven't had any problems with my SD card, though it has been in use for less than 6 months so far. I agree though

Also the problem with GMOs is it transfers ownership of the plant from the public to the large companies that have modified it (as they will inventibly want to patent it). Is it really fair that they take thousands of years of evolution, ch

Ah, I had the exact same idea for a website after seeing the post on spleeter here on hn a bit ago. Just tried an mp3 and it works great! Even though you have beat me to it I think I'll still have a go at making something similar to ge

There are projects like Yggdrasil [0] and cjdns [1] which are encrypted, distributed networks. People will generally use these networks on top of the existing internet infrastructure though, because for now that is the most prevalent way co

Very interesting and exciting work. Michael Levin (one of the scientists in this study) has some amazing things going on in his lab. There is a few talks of him on YouTube, I have seen the following one from May this year https:/&#x2F

Yeah I like the idea of visual programming but it's not gonna replace everyday dev work in my opinion. I would like to see more apps for tablets that introduce visual programming into everyday workflows. If you haven't seen the wo

I use "Ian's knot" to tie my shoes [0]. I was so excited when I first learnt this, it is very quick to do and I like that the two loops of the tied shoelace sit flat and straight on the show. Works great for short laces, and

Here in Adelaide (South Australia) I've found the buses have improved a lot over the last decade, usually right on time, only with the occasional delay (like 5-10 mins). There are real time data available for our transport system which

I had just recently been reading about Arweave [0], a sort of distributed file storage that claims to permanently store files/webpages using various incentives. Seems like something like this would be a good way to archive this sort of

I wonder though, after decades of study in numerous fields, how much would you actually be able to remember? No doubt some events in your life might stick around in your mind for a long time, but by your 100th, 300th, whatever year would 50

Looks good but it would be nice to have a little bit more info: do files expire, is there a size limit etc?

I am in my early twenties and I would expect none of my peers during high school would have difficulty zipping up some files. Perhaps I am just in that brief period of time where more people than just the nerds knew the basics of the filesy

I have no direct observations on this topic myself but I remember receiving a newsletter a while ago that may be of interest [0]. The author says that about half of general market is for clients that "Whether or not they choose to expl
