Readit NewsI don't know if ChatGPT has saved lives (thought I've read stories that claim that, yes, this happened). But assuming it has, are you OK saying that OpenAI has saved dozens/hundreds of lives? Given how scaling works, would you be OK saying that OpenAI has saved more lives than most doctors/hospitals, which is what I assume will happen in a few years?
Maybe your answer is yes to all the above! I bring this up because lots of people only want to attribute the downsides to ChatGPT but not the upsides.
Ok, maybe I’m in a bubble, and my job is only coding-adjacent, but I’ve literally never heard a PR called an MR until today. Is this a new thing?
The text message should explain the nature of the call and which number to call in reply.
That’s basically how most SMS scams work.
OKLCH is a polar coordinate space. Hue is angle in this space. So to interpolate hue from one angle to another, to get from one side of a circle to the other, you go round the edge. This leads to extreme examples like the one shown:
linear-gradient(in oklch, #f0f, #0f0)
linear-gradient(in oklch longer hue, #f0f, #0f0)
Accordingly, there are algorithms defined (yes, plural: not every application has agreed on the technique to use) to drag the colour back in-gamut, but it sacrifices the perceptual uniformity. The red in that gradient is way darker than the rest of it.
When you’re looking for better gradients, if you’re caring about perceptual uniformity (which frequently you shouldn’t, perceptual colour spaces are being massively overapplied), you should probably default to interpolating in Oklab instead, which takes a straight line from one side of the circle to the other—yes, through grey, if necessary.
linear-gradient(in oklab, #f0f, #0f0)
During its beta period, Tailwind v4 tried shifting from sRGB to Oklch for gradient interpolation; by release, they’d decided Oklab was a safer default.
Which brings me to point at the crux of the matter: avoid gradients between two dissimilar colors in the first place.

You can try a novel treatment on those but at the same time are limited by ethical concerns regarding pain and future survival (if the transplant "works", you are now in a tricky situation, as you can't easily do anything that has the potential to make the situation worse... and given it's uncharted territory, anything has the potential to make it worse).
Brain-dead people don't have such limitations. You don't have to worry about causing pain nor shortening potential survival, so you can try things that are likely to "kill" them (cause the transplant to fail, or other issues) and learn from the outcomes.
Fortunately determining brain death is a problem with a clear-cut answer with a clear line dividing “brain death” and “not brain death”. Right?
