Stickenborough is not a stick insect, they’re a leaf insect, so would be called Leafenborough

My guess it is hyperfocus related. Which, looking through a few sites seems: not ADHD specific, might be found in a higher rate in people with ADHD, hasn’t been researched thoroughly.

Shoebox is a nice idea, but now I’m wondering how big the pills would be…
Verqix@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Google blasted for AI that refuses to say how many Jews were killed by the Nazis12·1 year agoWould expect a lot of models to struggle with making the pope female, making the pope black, or making a black female a pope unless they build in some kind of technique to make replacements. Thing is, a neural net reproduces what you put into it, and I assume the bias is largely towards old white men since those images are way more readily found.
Even targeted prompts, like a zebra with rainbow colored stripes, had very limited results 6 monts ago where there would be at least 50% non black and white stripes. I had to generate multiple times with a lot of negative terms just to get close. Currently, the first generation of copilot matches my idea behind the prompt.
Clearly the step made was a big one, and I imagine tuning was done to ensure models capable of returning more diverse results rather just what is in the data set. It just has more unexpected results and less historically accurate images for these kind of prompts. And some that might be quite painful. Still, being always underrepresented in data sets is also quite painful. Hard to get to a perfect product quickly, but there should be a feature somewhere on their backlog to by default prevent some substitutions. Black, female popes when requesting a generated pope? To me that is a horizon broadening feature. Black, female nazis when requesting nazis? Let that not be a default result.

Does that at all invalidate the argument that humans have changed the way, speed and reach of viral infections and viral mutations? It’s like saying humans have always gathered in groups. Sure, but modern metropolitan areas come with their own challenges that differ from tribal cultures.
Poultry that has been bred in a way that reduces variety, with more on a certain square footage, with more being transported outside of their natural habitat and migratory range. The problem shouldn’t be exaggerated, but human influence shouldn’t be ignored.

Anyone would be able to infer that women that want to get pregnant shouldn’t smoke from the proposed headline, but they might think a bit more about their own contributions to the health of others.

As long as we are changing things, why not get rid of the order shift as well? Teenty one, teenty two, teenty three, teenty four, etc.

To me it feels like name changes not on official public record should be the target, as in a deliberate pseudonym. Still, what fits under that umbrella? Your twitter handle, if it isn’t your legal name would fit, but no one included that since the law was written.
Verqix@lemmy.worldto politics @lemmy.world•DeSantis spread false info about trans kids healthcare says Judge19·2 years agoSo you chose culture over their personal choice and you and your kid(s) have to live with the consequences. That’s a pretty sad thing that could be prevented by only allowing circumcision to be performed when medically necessary.

At least they borrowed something from English for it, showing that being international isn’t all that bad :D
Recheck the comment please, they didn’t mention any gender other than “girl”. You filled in the other gender.

If this is a high enough fine it will have long term ramifications.
The main issue to me is, big companies will find the next best thing and continue with unethical accounting, outside of the EU.

Results will go out of date but maybe this will tide me over until a good lemmy search is up and running.
Streamers sometimes use a heart rate monitor widget on stream. There might be multiple solutions here but checking out pulsoid.net it seems like a free solution can be made here if it is compatible with the smart watch used. Android app to webpage might be possible with setting up a local host server. Don’t know what it’ll do to the battery life of your watch and if the widget works without OBS integration. Maybe someone familiar with this can weigh in?
