Eh, that’s pretty metal.

It's definitely pretty, and as thermite is a mixture of metal powder and metal oxide, your statement is entirely correct.

ah they were making a nice and lame pun (anova brand == another brand)

They had a veto and they also had the Tories

It's not the image, it's a normal image. The server does the hard work when you make the request, and then it just builds the image accordingly.

Do you vote? Because it's the same principle - how one person votes might be irrelevant, but millions of people voting is powerful. This is true even though corporations have outsized influence on the political process.

Likewise, a single person deciding to not eat meat one day a week or replace one car journey with cycling is nothing in the global scheme of things, but a billion people all doing it will have more impact on the environment than any corporation ever could.

just fancy phone keyboard text prediction.

..as if saying that somehow makes what chatGPT does trivial.

This response, which I wouldn't expect from anyone with true understanding of neural nets and machine learning, reminds me of the attempt in the 70s to make a computer control a robot arm to catch a ball. How hard could it be, given that computers at that time were already able to solve staggeringly complex equations? The answer was, of course, "fucking hard".

You're never going to get coherent text from autocomplete and nor can it understand any arbitrary English phrase.

ChatGPT does both those things. You can pose it any question you like in your own words and it will respond with a meaningful and often accurate response. What it can accomplish is truly remarkable, and I don't get why anybody but the most boomer luddite feels this need to rubbish it.

I cannot wait until architecture-agnostic ML libraries are dominant and I can kiss CUDA goodbye for good

I really hope this happens. After being on Nvidia for over a decade (960 for 5 years and similar midrange cards before that), I finally went AMD at the end of last year. Then of course AI burst onto the scene this year, and I've not yet managed to get stable diffusion running to the point it's made me wonder if I might have made a bad choice.

.. just don't tell them it was with yourself

dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled - block sites from preventing you using copy+paste e.g. in email and password fields.

I've only recently started using this one, so ask me again in a couple of months if it solves the issue :] or if it has unwanted side-effects - I know at least it doesn't prevent websites interacting with the clipboard entirely e.g. with a button to click to copy text to the clipboard

Well there's a huge variety of different accents in England, even more if you include the whole UK. British people themselves can struggle understanding other Brits from just 100 or 200 miles down the road. I say that as a Brit - I've worked in call centres where there would frequently be Liverpudlians, Geordies, Cornish etc calling back in a rage after being hung up on multiple times by colleagues who couldn't understand them.

I'm gonna guess you're a Windows user :D
