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.
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.
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.
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.
