The classic story of solving a problem that doesn't exist with an overly complicated solution.

How is it with animations?

I have played around a little bit with fixing some rigging problems and was impressed, but Opus even warned me it was bad at animations cause it can only really grab screenshots to process static content.

A functioning window system would drastically enhance OSX productivity.

I worked with an older German man who was a consultant on a research project that I was working on in graduate school. He was born in Gottingen and told stories how as a kid he got to test his paper airplanes in their wind tunnels with these famous scientists.

I printed out a nice 1-page guide to flexbox a few weeks ago and keep it on my desk, and it's a great reference.

This story is in the article as well.

I haven't seen people mention it really, but isn't this all in response to ChatGPT deriving a lot of it's content from Reddit?

I know that Google search has gotten so bad in the last couple years that I normally have to add "reddit" to the search terms to get a good result.

Why did the first 2 replies to this comment use the phrasing that that is his 'MO'?

And then people used electric sheep in the later two-thousands which was a pretty interesting concept.

Just a heads up...on your homepage when hovering over the artist's name "Anastasiia Andriichuk" the highlight seems to add padding on each side which makes the line break in between their first and last name and the page gets jumpy. This is using chrome on my laptop.

I went to a talk at Oak Ridge National Lab soon after the discovery of Ununseptium (element 117 that is now called Tennessine) and it was really interesting the international collaboration needed to make the discovery happen.

Basically, at Oak Ridge they produced radioactive isotopes with the appropriate number of neutrons and protons to match the theoretical ratio of the atom. Then, those isotopes needed to be shipped to Russia so they could be smashed together in a particle accelerator to briefly create the atom which we know existed from its specific decay and gamma ray emission.

But there was a lot of political hurdles in the way of shipping the isotopes to Russia in the first place, and it almost didn't happen because the isotopes were decaying while paperwork was floundering between state departments.

Well, as fun as it is to mess up benadryl cucumber's name it's very easy to spell correctly.

If you look more into it, Germany was very close to being able to build a reactor that would have been able to produce plutonium. Their graphite reactor research never went critical because they didn't know that the boron impurities in graphite was absorbing too many neutrons. I'm not saying if they knew that they would've had the resources to make enough plutonium for a bomb, but the German scientists wren't that far away. Having said all that, if you read through all of these documents it seems like they had no idea how the bomb was built and designed.
