I mean the song is funny but it's hilarious that they still mispronounce it.. he constantly sings susAH instead of susEH .. how it should be pronounced, at least if you pronounce it as a German word.

I think people are worried no one really understands how AI picks the target.

Reminds me of that story from probably 5-7y ago. Someone wanted to use AI to classify photos of tanks as soviet vs US. So he went to a US tank museum and took lots of pictures of the tanks under every angle. Did the same in a soviet tank museum. The resulting model worked great on that training dataset. Then he tried on photos outside of the training dataset. Turned out that it was cloudy the day he visited the US museum and sunny for the soviet museum, and the model used the color of the sky to classify.

Seems like segmentation would be a better approach to identity objects in a photo rather than various other features.

Only thing I know is that they won’t allow certain black metal band covers that have swastikas in their covers.

Which is perfectly fine IMO - that stuff can stay below ground.

I wonder why this product is so unreliable. Perhaps because they keep messing with it and tweaking it instead of having a stable software that isn't updated almost daily.

I like to use chatgpt for enhancing productivity for rote tasks but I keep finding I can't rely on it. Is there a reliable generative text AI out there?

Like how FB and Google just update willy nilly and you're stuck with whatever you get no matter the workflow issues. Should be able to pick a version, even if it's a sliding window.

Is there something like this for the web?

I have a Django app for building topical maps for content marketing, and I'd like to be able to visualise the topic maps in terms of interconnected nodes.

Several out there. Pick your poison https://vueflow.dev/ or https://reactflow.dev/

It's currently happening. Try using YouTube or Google Search on the desktop with, for example, MS Edge. Google will tell you you should download Chrome to work better.

The only reason that's not the case on iOS devices is that they don't have that option.

MS Edge uses Blink under the hood, which is a Chrome fork. The monoculture is all but here, save for dwindling Firefox and Webkit. Everything else that's popular is effectively a Chrome skin, or if you like, Linux distributions packaging up stuff around the kernel (the rendering engine).

artificial commented on FreeBSD on Firecracker   usenix.org/publications/l... · Posted by u/jmmv

I'm not wanting to sound snoody. What use-cases do firecracker instances and the likes chime?

I use FreeBSD for everything from my colocated servers, to my own PC. By no means am I developer; seasoned Unix Admin at best. Bare-metal forever but welcome to the future. Especially anything that contributes to the OS.

However I hear buzz words like Lambda and Firecracker and really have no idea where the usage is. I get docker, containers, barely understand k8s but why do you need to spin up a VM only to tear it down compared to where you could just spin up a VM and use it when you really need to. Always there, always when.

Is it purely a cloud experience, cost saving exercise?

FaaS, function as a service. Depending on how software is packaged and the expectations the richness a VM, like Firecraker, provides may be useful. Many of these tradeoffs are for velocity, I can run X easily on Y.

I honestly hate dealing with the scanning apps. They're ok, but they're not cheap and require a subscription. I've been looking to replace them with an actual scanner.
