I think something like Apple Face ID already goes a step further and makes use of depth information from the cameras. So possibly they could incorporate that type of information which would be more difficult to spoof from a 2d image.

While most people think of AOL as a walled garden (and understandably so), it had its roots in the Quantum Link (QLink) days of the Commodore era and in fact a lot of the AOL communication protocol was derived from that (FDO tokens and so forth). Once you got past the "Welcome" screen there was a lot you could do, and it enabled a lot of small-time software developers to host their shareware programs for others to try out. I remember getting a lot of early Macintosh games that way (TaskMaker, for example).

You can also get System 7 running on iPad:

I sometimes play Task Maker (old Mac retro game) on it.. it works quite well.

As you say, Modern C++ allows for one to adopt the primary selling point of Rust: memory safety. Furthermore, because C++ has been around for ages, developers have access to a much higher breadth and depth of libraries and frameworks (e.g., Eigen for linear algebra). So, there does not really seem to be any particular advantage to using Rust.

Scott Manley has already released a video indicating that it has landed upside down, according to the telemetry data.

the problem is, once everyone quits using wikipedia, stackoverflow, etc, and becomes reliant on gpt, such sources will no longer be updated⦠and so it will have less relevant source for training material. At least until it can think on its own.

The MRI itself is likely perfectly fine, but there have been discussions concerning the contrast agents, in particular Gadolinium retention, as it is essentially a heavy metal that can remain deposited in the organs: https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov%2Fp...

I tried it for the first time a week ago. I asked it three times, how to compute the absolute magnitude of an asteroid. And it gave a different formula each time, all of them incorrect. Out of curiosity, I tried now again, a fourth time... And still an incorrect response:
To compute the absolute magnitude of an asteroid, you will need to follow these steps:

        1. Determine the apparent magnitude of the asteroid: The apparent magnitude is the brightness of the asteroid as it appears from Earth. You can obtain this value from observations or measurements of the asteroid's brightness.

        2. Determine the distance between the asteroid and the observer: The distance between the asteroid and the observer (in astronomical units or AU) can be obtained from observations or from orbital data.

        3. Calculate the distance between the asteroid and the Sun: You will also need to determine the distance between the asteroid and the Sun (in AU). This value can be obtained from orbital data.

        4. Use the formula:

        Absolute Magnitude = Apparent Magnitude - 5 * log(distance to the asteroid in AU) - 5

        This formula takes into account the distance between the asteroid and the observer, as well as the distance between the asteroid and the Sun, to determine the absolute magnitude of the asteroid.

Wikipedia actually has the correct formula, which uses not just "distance to the asteroid" but also the asteroid distance to the Sun as well as its phase angle. When I use the formulas given by ChatGPT on actual data, they yield results that are off by a minimum of 1.5 magnitudes to as much as 7.5 magnitudes (this fourth attempt is off by 2.5 magnitudes). For comparison, using the correct formula on this data returns a result that is within 0.1 magnitude to the reference value:

ChatGPT attempt #1: 13.6
ChatGPT attempt #2: 19.7
ChatGPT attempt #3: 15.4
ChatGPT attempt #4: 9.69
Using correct formula: 12.3
Reference value: 12.2

As is the show "Avenue 5". Highly recommended for science fiction enthusiasts.

As is my 2011 Panasonic Viera plasma TV. Shame that plasma was discontinued, as it has much better contrast and picture quality.

Iâ(TM)ve gone swimming with my Apple Watch three days a week for over a year now and no issues. In fact keeping track of swimming laps is what a lot of people like about it.

According to your link:
"As of December 2015, the final cost is projected as CHF 9.560 billion.[17] Nine people died during construction.[18]"

CHF are "swiss francs" and the current exchange rate is about 100 CHF = 103 USD. Therefore that's roughly $9.85 billion USD for the 150 km, or $65.7 million USD per km.

In contrast, Boring have spent $52.5 million USD for two 1-mile tunnels (total of 3.22km), translating to $16.3 million USD per km.

So, it seems that the cost per km is cheaper by a factor of four, and so far, no deaths have occurred.

I was going to bring this up as well. Also, imagine the usefulness of a healthy 300 year old. They would have not only a unique perspective and wisdom about things but also the energy to put it to good use.

I'm pretty sure they must mean 18^100 possible sequences.

That is, if there are 18 possibilities for each step, then 100 steps would yield 18^100 possibilities.

Similar to how if there are two choices to make (go left or go right) and you make 100 of them, then there would be 2^100 possibilities.
