"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Oh, another imperial fun fact. There's 16 frames in a foot of 35mm film. Way easier to remember than how many yards in a mile and all the other things.
It feels weird that film would be measured in feet, while the film size uses mm.
Since 24 frames per second is standard, that means 48 frames in 3 feet, or 2 seconds per yard of film.
I'm glad we can leave all that BS in the past though. US customary units belong to a bygone era just like analog, chemical film does.
Is 35mm both the width and the height of a frame? If so we can then easily use frame as units to convert between metric and imperial.
