Because whatever you like or not, AI support these days is a must. Nobody who makes PPT does everything by hand nowadays. And the project is on GitHub, you can get the full code there if you must...
This is awesome! I do love this software is one file thing. A breath of fresh air on these you-rent-everything-owns-nothing days
Most people are not opposed to ads, they are opposed to the flood of them and the overreach of personal data to serve those ads and the lengths that companies go to blend ads into organic content to trick you. There is a time, place, and purpose for ads. Companies are just abusing that.
Think like this: Most people do not complain when a YouTuber reserves a few seconds of their video for their sponsor if they are clear about it. Take Linus Tech Tips, for example, they even made it into a funny thing. But people hate YouTube for using your personal watch history and Google data to push ads in your face at inconvenient times and places, sometimes preventing you from actually consuming the content you were there in the first place for.
My suggestion: find the correct time and place for your ads, serve a specific purpose, and be clear it's an ad, dont try to blend in organically. That will change depending on your business, but that's my suggestion.
That's interesting, especially the method they used for designing the actual structure
> To design the drone, the Northwestern team first used a computational model to generate roughly 20,000 drone configurations capable of stable flight. Then, they used artificial intelligence (AI) and optimization algorithms to repeatedly rearrange the drones’ major components, including a motor, propeller, circuit board, counterweight and batteries. [...] “The design process was fully automated,” Rubenstein said. “Then, when we were confident that a drone met all our criteria, we built it.”
That's Funny! Great use of free will! Good luck with the sales!
It's still Nolan. He is still a very respected director with amazing movies. I think people don't trust the media anymore and are starting to feel forced to check things for themselves, and I think that's what's happening here.
In my humble opinion, what's going to say whether the "backslash failed" or not is the numbers and reviews after a few weeks. We shall see
Edit: After reading the entire article (Thanks, user with the archive link), there is a lot of unrealistic exaggerations used as arguments, like tickets being sold for 1K USD, which is just absurd, and writing like "I myself travelled about an hour-and-change round-trip only to not see it." which makes no sense. Honestly, that makes me question the actual truthfulness of the things written in this article as facts. That said, from a reasonable perspective, I think my original point is still valid.
Unfortunately, yet just another story like this. One of these unexpected usage charges in the thousands appears every month, and with the same automatic denied too. This is one of the reasons I just stopped using these kinds of pay-per-usage cloud services long ago. At best, I still use services that have hard-bounded usage limits, like EC2 from AWS, where one instance can never go beyond 24h/day usage and is always capped, with shutdowns when exceeded, and limited credit cards, too.
It's super frustrating that this is the only option to realistically deal with this issue, since all stories end up the same way: The cloud company just saying "f* you, we don't care, pay up." and legal fees are always expensive :(
In reality, nothing is perfect. Materials are never 100% one material. Rustness is imperfection, the weight and material of the ball, and the place it's attached are also consideration points, how firmly it is attached, and with which material. A "perfect" simulation of the spring itself would have to consider all these variables, and they almost never do.
