YouTube's next move might make it virtually impossible to block ads
  • I think that downsizing the scene to like 8x8 pixels (so basically taking the average color of multiple sections of the scene) would mostly work. In order to be undetected, the ad would have to match (at least be close to) the average color of each section, which would be difficult in my opinion: you would need to alter each ad for each video timestamp individually.

  • this AI thing
  • There are many definitions of AI (eg. there is some mathematical model used), but machine learning (which is used in the large language models) is considered a part of the scientific field called AI. If someone says that something is AI, it usually means that some technique from the field AI has been applied there. Even though the term AI doesn't have much to do with the term intelligence as most of the people perceive it, I think the usage here is correct. (And yes, the whole scientific field should have been called differently.)

  • Lucid dream startup says engineers can write code in their sleep. Work may never be the same
  • I'm probably not a lucid dreamer, but at times when I write code all day long I may also dream about it at night. Sometimes, I would wake up in the middle of the night and write an "amazing solution" down so I can implement it the next day. Not surprisingly, most of the "amazing solutions" are total nonsense.

    Edit: If this happens to you, it's probably a sign that you code way too much. I know it might be difficult, but try to relax more please.

  • 20 maps of prejudice in Europe
  • I think it means that they do that thing ONLY 21 days per year and the rest of the days the other thing.

    So 21 days working and the rest of the days living

    Vs.

    21 days living and the rest of the days working

  • Yes, the transcription is amazing! (The photo too, but the transcription is just perfect. I'd really like to know how the story of the cat a the soon-to-be-victim bread continues.)
