Yes, my daughter and I still will randomly say "worlds youngest self-made female billionaire" to each other and laugh when we hear someone use a phase that is only true because of an excessive number of qualifiers.

My first thought was it was going to be "Microsoft Bob for the AI Age" or something. I didn't look too closely -- maybe it is!

I suspect being able to visualize something feels so natural to you you have a hard time imagining it could be otherwise. However, for folks like me it just doesn't happen. When I dream I see the dreams just fine (so I think I understa

I haven't looked at the API yet, but the demo is great on my phone. Instead of just justified blocks, can you have it do a "justified" (even amount of spacing) from an irregularly shaped right edge (in my case, an image on th

I've always admired these sorts of illustrations. Botanical ones too. Please forgive the newb questions, but does this gorgeous illustration style have a name and how was it done (I.e., what is the medium -- some kind of colored ink?)

Click on the visualizations to see it in action. The purple areas are areas a user highlighted to tell the system to inpaint, and when you click on the image you see the results of the inpainting. Basically the model redraws sections of an

I thought this was the release where the built in sqlite got its experimental tag removed, but I don't see it in the release notes. THAT'S got me excited more than Temporal. A stable API, huge utility and one less dependency.

Wow, surprising that it was zero. Is there a chance that the cup was being separated from the tracker at a sorting facility with the cup going to a different destination than the tracker?

Because it was the only "standard" 256-color mode back in the day, supported by both mcga and vga. MCGA cards had just enough ram to support this mode (64kb) while vga cards were a strict superset and had a full 256k of ram.

And last I knew you ALSO can put in a GFCI circuit breaker (instead of outlet), swap in normal three prong outlets with ground not connected and use those stickers on the outlets.

I don't have any color discrimination deficiencies, but it is my understanding that for various types of signage, the move has been towards RED=bad/danger/etc, and BLUE (instead of green)=good/safe/etc.

Yes, exactly this. I'm using a 10 year old elitebook folio g1. It's about 2 pounds and does what I need it to do. Available with a 4k screen if that's your thing. Does not feel sluggish. Given that I'm not gaming, video

I seem to recall browsing what appeared to be the complete source back in the day. I put in a bit of an effort to get it compiling, but it was only released as poorly scanned printouts of the source code and OCR wasn't so good then so

I disagree. When I saw the page, I thought, "Finally an information dense page again! It's been so long since they've been common and I miss them."

Does anyone remember the 1980s PBS show Newtons Apple? A segment on that show was called "Newtons Lemons" and would show an old newsreel from I'm guessing from the 1940s or 1950s. Each one would feature some sort of "fut

You called an "interrupt," which was basically a system call. That changed a bunch of timing registers within the video hardware. For a long time you basically could only do 40, 80 columns of text and 25, 43, or 50 lines. With som

For panels in northern climates, if the tilt is fixed or just seasonally adjusted (i.e., not tracking the sun), we often will bias towards a bit more vertical tilt than mathematically optimal to encourage snow shedding.
