The collection is great. It's like a much more polished and professional version of my ideas folder (I rarely get beyond the initial loop/riff stage). Will now download a random piece, pop it into my DAW and see if it can inspire me to create something new.
By the way: why do browsers only allow deleting the most recent history, and not offer a possibility to delete "everything older than 30 days"?
But I should get that ancient Fender Princeton Reverb out of the basement to feel the wind in my hair again (and the ringing in my ears).
> A study on structural quality control of Swiss‐type cheese with ultrasound is presented. We used a longitudinal mode pulse‐echo setup using 1–2MHz ultrasonic frequencies to detect cheese‐eyes and ripening induced cracks. Results show that the ultrasonic method posses good potential to monitor the cheese structure during the ripening process. Preliminary results indicate that maturation stage could be monitored with ultrasonic velocity measurements.

Having texted with T9 this didn’t feel too alien. Just the accept button slowing me down.
And the QR code points to a general BSOD page instead of the error, which could be improved.
Unfortunately, I notice these too often because Windows 11 produces a lot more BSODs for me than Win10.
> UPDATE: The information above was fetched from some of the public leak databases going around internet. This particular leak is from 2016, so the account was created before that. The password used was consistent with other similar accounts allegedly linked to Hegseth.

But they still serve me well as gym shoes with a very low packing volume (great for business trips).
Couldn’t they offer an unbiased randomization option with a different payment model (eg based on showings, not clicks)? Would preserve their revenue and researchers get a good tool.
This is a lay-person overview which cites some of the in-depth studies: https://ourworldindata.org/weather-forecasts
Is there more than the 4-page paper that’s on the page? It seems very scarce on details and proofs.
And can you actually patent an algorithm?
The Montreal Protocol is probably the most famous example: https://www.unep.org/ozonaction/who-we-are/about-montreal-pr...
And the German feed-in-tariffs helped renewables quite a bit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feed-in_tariffs_in_Germany
Or the European emission standards: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_emission_standards
They achieved their two goals of (1) minimizing the externality and (2) driving technology innovation.
- Grok (X‘s AI) is first author of this paper.
- It is published in a journal which seems to be dedicated to questioning climate change https://scienceofclimatechange.org/articles/articles/
- Whose editor in chief has himself published questionable studies on climate change https://andthentheresphysics.wordpress.com/2017/10/03/a-hard...
Is there a better way to create an oracle that doesn’t point back at you?
Once you start adding other logos, they will bring associations that you cannot control. This will dilute your brand.
Think about when you want to signal inclusiveness (eg, in employer branding) and highlight it there. Then it will become part of your general brand without the need to give up your distinct logo.
