“Twitter is a defiant producer of illegal porn, the kidnapped president of Venezuela is on trial in New York, and Europe is scrambling to figure out a response to a potential US invasion of Greenland” ok bro, sure, those are things

I do not own an SNES or a TV that it would work on. I'd still probably buy it if it were in front of me
Mhmm retro collecting is great. Totally cool and reasonable

Dealing with this challenge with specific field extraction right now.
The promise is all future data could be imported easily. The caveat is we'd have to redo all historical work from the current training set as of right now.

As someone who is actively training a model on Transkribus, this is 100% accurate. For most people and most projects, it doesn't make sense to train a custom model. You need so much data to train it, that you might as well just transcribe it all yourself and not go through the trouble of training.
I am reminded that every time someone recommended I use Transkribus to train a model to read the handwritten manuscript novels I was working on, I had to explain that the process required first that I hand-transcribe perfectly clean sample of the hand that was generally 75-100% of the document.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

I need a mood booster, let's talk about capybaras.
Here's a capy demonstrating one of MANY ways they can move through the water: running along the bottom.
They're 'semi-aquatic' mammals, just like hippos, seals & beavers. They LOVE water.

Time to hunker down and rework my Shasvastii for playing Defiance. I am using color shift paints for the armor panels (Darth Blue) and looking for a second tone when looking at heavier models like the Gwailo, Sheskiin, and the Megalodron. #infinitythegame

Solvitur ambulando is my favourite Latin phrase. It means "it is solved by walking".

A couple weeks ago I asked if you could pray for my best friend's daughter. It's been a terrible daze since we found out about her brain tumor. Of your charity, please consider donating anything you can and, if nothing else, please share this.

The general public can safely assume judges will rule certain ways depending on partisan alignment over facts of the case or perceived consequences of rulings.
We swim in this partisanship all the time and...I don't really know how we would move beyond it. Has it always been like this?

There are seven Dems and four GOP (three Trump) on the DC Cir. The chance of pulling a GOP majority on a three-judge panel (including this monthly motions panel) on a pure random draw would be 27.9%. It's not that improbable and doesn't require any lotto-rigging conspiracy in the clerk's office.
This seems like it’s been happening for months and I don’t understand it either. I know lawyers are very bad at math but the odds of drawing these two judges in panel after panel are very low. What’s going on?

I'm juggling four different factions to paint in my rapidly dwindling hobby time. Good thing I didn't choose wildly different painting methods that require different setup procedures.
