That just tells it which languages to serve if the video has multiple tracks, including Ai-generated ones. "Keep original language" should be the default, or at least an opt-in. And what about the atrocious title auto-translations

The EU couldn't agree amongst themselves because the US (and its biggest vassal, the UK when it was in the EU) did everything to prevent such agreement. We'll see what the States that were the most against any form of common Europ

The main reason people pay expensive ESPs is deliverability, which is practically impossible when self-hosting when it comes to marketing, non-transactional emails, and in any case much more expensive than any ESP subscription. How does Fer

And malnutrition isn't only about lack of food, it's also about mediocre quality of food: > Similarly, new estimates of adult obesity show a steady increase over the last decade, from 12.1 percent (2012) to 15.8 percent (2022).

I'm in France, but my Google, browsers and devices languages are English. So Youtube randomly auto-dubs (and auto-translates the title of) some French videos into English, and some English videos into French. But they're never the

If only it was that easy. I'm French living in France. My account settings are in English, my browsers and apps (phone, TV) are in English but my Youtube region is France. So Youtube serves me: - French videos auto-dubbed with AI and w

I had a cheap VPS (kimsufi) with them for over 10 years and I don't remember a single downtime notification. Before that, I had another for 5 or so years and I received two notifications, but each time it was to tell me the problem has

It's a bad, very literal machine translation. ChatGPT would do a better job. A billion in French is 10^12 (1,000,000,000,000) so I doubt they truly served "billions de requêtes".

Maybe the actual solution to the interpretability/blackbox problem is to not ask the llm to execute a given task, but rather to write deterministic programs that can execute the task.

I just spent half a day troubleshooting why PHPStorm suddenly took 15 minutes to become responsive. The cultprit was the built-in markdown plugin, probably after an update. I don't have time for that. Another annoying thing is they als

Unpredictability. If you restock and the tariffs are eliminated or significantly reduced a couple of weeks/month later, that's a disaster. So the best attitude is to wait and see.

They refuted these, but did not say it was a bug on their side. It seemed more like the user errors combined with usual influencers gone wild.

I doubt most people have 99% accuracy. The threshold of tolerance for error is just much lower for any self-driving system (and with good reason, because we're not familiar with them yet).

> It's a race for AGI, a VC's wet dream. Yes but why? This is what I really don't understand. Say AGI is achieved within a reasonable timeframe. Odds are that no single company will achieve that, there will be no monopoly.
