Looking for a Choice of Voices in A.I. Technology

The arrow length does not represent power accurately, There's a minimum arrow length even when power is nearly 0, which means when the arrow is twice as long, the power is actually almost 50 times higher! It should be directly proportional. Perhaps there should be different indicators for "power" and "direction" -- maybe a fixed-length dotted line arrow for direction? And/or a power bar that is not anchored to the player position?

The arrow for wind strength also seems to be a different scale, making it hard to judge how much to compensate.

The "up/down" arrows are a bit confusing, I don't think it's self-evident whether "later in the alphabet" would be considered "higher" or "lower".

"left" or "right" might be clearer, at least for English, and it would map directly to the range bar visualizations beneath each letter.

I'm a bit confused, how does it know when you've finished an exercise? There don't seem to be any inputs on the live activity when in the middle of a set, and the post just describes "glancing" at the lock screen.

... this has nothing to do with Nintendo Gameboy?

Correcting your previously-entered time by selecting the hour and tapping a different number doesn’t work. It initially shows the hour selected but then overwrites the right-most component (eg seconds)

It's hard to actually use this map and inspect individual homes. Clicking into a listing replaces the map view, so you lose the context of where you were looking, and the way the dots animate in make it harder to visually remember where you were. And you can't zoom in further to distinguish multiple overlapping properties.

There was a situation like this in DC for cannabis. There was a ballot measure passed that legalized recreational use and gifting but selling weed was still illegal. So there were lots of “gifting” shops where they would sell things like stickers or t-shirts and then offer you a “free gift” of cannabis. It was sort of tolerated for a little while but the authorities started cracking down and required them to get licensed for medical maraijuana sales. [1]

The comment was edited, originally it said "The problem with the DR part is that you miss a lot of detail" and I thought it was perhaps some term of art regarding endangered species or conservation.

Anyhow, I believe it always adds value to bring clarifications "in-line" to the original thread so everyone reading it can gain the benefit of knowledge, instead of requiring every reader look up something on their own.

Midjourney Medical 1 month ago

The branding choice is crazy to me. “Midjourney” is pretty much synonymous with “generated images that aren’t real”. Which is the opposite of what you want when it comes to medical imagery and data.
