I allowed it to search the internet and it hallucinated so bad that I nuked that version of the list and reverted all the changes.
Really? This does not reflect my experience at all. I've been using the Beaver plugin and also Claude Code, and they have been spot on.
And moreover, something already mostly solved algorithmically. Eg in zotero you can drag and drop files and it generates a reference based on the metadata as long as that is enough
As mentoned somewhere else, zotero's metadata retrieval is like 50% hit/miss in my experience - as in for the papers i've imported it was able to ID about half of them. An the quality of that data is not that great either. Lots of OCR errors, sparse bibtext fields, author names wrong, etc.
None of these issues are relevant to me.
I'm a graphics programmer, i keep a lot of journals for research, and i needed the least painless method to get them sorted. Even if, say 1% is misclassified or has wrong metadata, it will not impact what I do the least bit. And those can be corrected with ease.
At least with Zotero Version 6, you could have just selected all your PDFs and drag-n-dropped them into the interface.
I'm on version 9. I did the drag and drop for some of the files, but Zotero has only like 50% hit rate with finding the correct bibtex, and those are not that high quality either. People talk about hallucinations using LLMs, but I found them to be more reliable and produces richer metadata than Zotero's system. You can even use the Beaver plugin to correct the metadata, if you find them dubious or low quality.
All it takes is a single hallucinated reference, and your career would be forever tainted.
Of any references I use, I always read the PDFs. The entire point of me using Zotero is to manage PDFs and being able to read them. If the title and author data in the item view don't match the PDFs then it's easy to notice. And even if i get the reference wrong, i'm not worried about my career, because it wouldn't matter.
I just finished importing and sorting thousands of PDF research papers, about 50 GB I've accumulated over the decades. Originally, I was sorting them in file system directly, but the whole thing got out of hand at some point, and thus the Documents folder became a dumping ground for PDFs. So I decided to take control of the situation and use Zotero to manage all this stuff. First I used Claude Code to generate all the BibTex files for the PDFs, then sort them into categories (still on the filesystem). Then created a master bibtex file that lists all the docs in each category. I used that to bulk import in Zotero, which then normalised all the file names once imported. What's really cool is that you can use Zotero built in web APIs to get an external tool to manipulate your collection directly. I've also setup WebDAV to sync the entire collection across multiple machines. Can you do all these without Zotero? Absolutely. And I did, but can't say I'll be looking back any time soon.
What I'd like to know is what software runs adequately under it in 4 GB RAM.
I find this question rather sad.
The world doesn't even have the foresight of doing something basic, like mitigating against fuel crisis scenario, let alone what you have suggested.
SVGs should never have supported scripting.
I would even go further: HTML should never have supported scripting.
FPS based on last frame is good to see load spikes, particular periodic ones, if you graph them.
FPS based on the median of a moving window is good if you want perceived frame rate, which rejects extreme outliers.
FPS based on the average of a moving window is good if you want statistical mean frame rate.
Not quite true. Lots of Thai dishes use a tonne of fish sauce and even shrimp paste in their dishes. They even make side dish dipping sauce (Nam Jim Jaew) that's like basically 50% fish sauce.
In electric circuits, information is transmitted through the electric field, which itself is close to the speed of light.
No, challenge the entire system.
Agree in principle. But people like her does not have the resources, financially and emotionally to go through the legal system again. Unless there are charitable lawyers who are willing to do it on her behalf for free.
Problem with the markdown approach the text will become rapidly ugly with hacks, non-standard annotations to enable same features as HTML.
Yeah I can see that being a source of annoyance for situations like yours. However, I welcome it from a privacy perspective. The indicator alerts the user if some nefarious application covertly enables the microphone.
If you have to explain it, there is zero chance of massive adoption.
Here's the thing, one should not need to explain it no mire. Devices or applications accessing content with an RSS option should present it to the end user through a convenient interface.
Season 1 was great. 2 is meh. 3 is probably the last one I'll watch, as I'm losing interest. The Joe MacMillan dude basically carries the show.
Those companies will then destroy those clothes, reporting them as sold to consumers.
I think those companies might just actually sell them, and report to the company is being destroyed.
Native app development is an evil necessity.
I wish people did more native app development.
Dudes must be really bored there
These machines don't really detect what kind of materials stuff is composed of, much of that is just a crude classification based on density. True identification requires broadband x-rays emission with spectral analysis.
It's about making people feel safe.
It adds stress. I fondly remember flying in the 80s vs today. Travelling back then was more chill.
lol I did this with my mates. Get one of those 1 kV ceramics, give it some charge and bob's your uncle, you have one angry capacitor.
Like it or not, mods should be free.
Why? If it's original work, and it does not violate existing laws, whoever makes it should have the right to seek compensation for their work, if they see fit. It's basically software like any other. Licensing models have been successfully applied to software plugins in past, mods fall into that category.
CDPR's policy and the law are orthogonal things. They would have to demonstrate that the mod and its business model violates some kind of law.
Documentation is fantastic.
Legends. Open source, create a community of hackers around your products, everyone is happy.
why type, when you can copy and paste text from images these days??
I get the impression that Garage isn’t necessarily focussed on this kind of use case.
I wouldn't be surprised if this will be fixed sometime in the future.
It's a fascinating topic and i'm still trying to get my head around some of the concepts.
Have fun on your discovery journey.
Here is a good lecture on this subject:
