One time one of my chefs did a tasting for some of the staff with a range of syrups from colored sugar syrup up to rich dark maple. The secret only he and I (the one who bought everything) knew was that they were all just different blends of the two extremes.
Most people tended toward around 30% maple since it tasted like real maple and didn’t have the bitter taste of more pure maple.
Sony wanted the games to require PSN login. They got enough pushback that they stopped, but they left the games locked out for regions that don’t have PSN.
The problems start if it can take on a lot of the junior work. If nobody can enter the industry, nobody can get the experience required to do the real engineering.
Open-source and personal work may be the only way to enter the programming field in the next decade.
A late-night decision by the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals dealt a blow to California Governor Gavin Newsom
It dealt a blow to the rule of law, critical limitations on the use of the military against the American people, and every person present in the US. Newsom is just the person in charge who was forced to fight this fight.
The o is a head and the 7 is an arm/hand. It’s a text form of 🫡.
This attack hit airbases all over Russia. Smuggling operators into Siberia to fly the drones seems unreasonable.
General update to the current version, with the security fixes applied to all other supported versions.
JWO hasn’t shut down. The system got polished enough for them to sell it to other companies, so they don’t need their own test-platform locations anymore.
JWO and similar systems do not reduce labor. The people working cashier become customer service attendants. These systems are valuable when the issue is throughput and sales are being lost at peak times. Airport convenience stores and stadium concession stands, for example, can get significantly higher revenue for the same footprint.
On the other hand, the only way to get good training data is to generate data indistinguishable from the real-world scenario and then have humans mark it up the way you want the system to do it. You might as well have the data actually be from the real world and recoup some of the costs with sales.
As noted in the YT comments, you can also set your brownie pan in a larger pan of water to nagate the hot-metal effect. Might not be quite as precise, but way easier.
If your primary usecase is text, don’t get a color e-reader. There are significant downsides to the display quality for very little benefit.
If you are wanting to read comics, manga, or illustrated guides, then you will want the color.
I’m a big fan of the Kobo Libra design. It’s friendly to software mods and has a rail for holding it with a nice big button that sits under the thumb for page turning.
I find that the Kindle-style thin bezel gives no comfortable way to hold an e-reader since the only good place to put your thumb is on the screen, the primary input method. It leads to a bad experience and turns people off from e-readers.
I tossed KOReader on my Kobo Libra 2 recently after a year of thinking it didn’t add anything useful. Oh boy, was I wrong.
It’s so much faster, I can dial in the formatting exactly how I want it, and I can customize the inputs to my liking. Page turn only on physical buttons, tap a corner to toggle dark mode, etc.
They didn’t take a pirate game and slap the AC name on it. They took an AC game with ship mechanics, dialed down the assassin, and dialed up the ships.
It’s a direct iteration on AC3 in every way.
This article is useless. The only source hyperlink links to another article on this site. The two articles disagree on whether the feature saves fuel or not with neither linking a source. Both spend a lot of time whinging about the feature being annoying.
People also can develop T1 well after birth. It’s often caused by a mis-targeted immune response killing insulin production, as happened with me at 27 and nearly killed me.
The drop in murder rate is fake. The government adopted a no-body-no-crime policy where as long as the gangs dispose of their corpses, nothing will be recorded.
Bukele has been backed by the gangs his entire career.
From early recalls, it looks like the product was sold direct by the grower and to Sysco, a major distributor. A huge portion of restaurants use Sysco, and Sysco hasn’t specified what states they sent impacted product to in the recalls I’ve seen.
I was digging through my purchases this morning looking at the recalled Sysco items. I have a few places on the west side of the US using a few of the items, but those distribution centers were sourcing from a different grower.
Food goes through so many hands that early-stage contamination recalls tend to take a while to cascade out to things that are useful to a end-user.
I just started the last book yesterday, having read through the rest over the past two weeks.
If you like sci-fi and explorations of anarchic capitalism, I highly recommend them.
They didn’t. They made mothers able to use HOV lanes without a second occupant, blocking the GOP’s attempts to use HOV lanes to normalize fetal personhood.
I do. A standard Oreo is 10g of easy, enjoyable sugar. If my blood sugar is on a downswing and I project I’ll get too low, I grab one or two out of the cupboard.
They are a medical supply and are dosed as such.
