I've been really enjoying editing code by voice: using @cursor_ai for IDE + @superwhisper for transcription.
It's so fast! Hit cmd-k, say what I want, boom. Faster than typing it myself. The prompts can get quite detailed too, voice makes it fast enough

We collaborated with the European Space Agency to open-source the largest ever earth observation dataset: Major TOM Core!
About half of the entire planet is covered. That's 2,245,886 patches of 1068 x 1068 pixels. At 10m resolution, we've got 256 million square km with over 2.5 trillion pixels.
More datasets from different satellites are in preparation and anyone can join this collaborative effort thanks to their organization on Hugging Face: huggingface.co/Major-TOM.
Quoting @mikonvergence @esa: “democratizing Earth Observation model development and deployment with transparent, reproducible, and traceable tools - starts with the data!”
You can explore the data here huggingface.co/spaces/Major-… & access the dataset here: huggingface.co/datasets/Majo…

This is really, really, really wrong. On the result, who is surprised? But that this is the way we discovered it, that is astonishing — and frightening. Leaks of opinions literally never happen.

Mayukh has been building a next-gen PyTorch model visualizer in the mold of Deepdream and Lucid. Now he's made a GUI on top of it that runs free through Colab. 🏆
Rover lets you reverse engineer your @PyTorch models rapidly with @streamlit and torch-dreams
✅ Runs via google colab
✅ Supports pretty much any PyTorch model with an input of shape [N, 3, H, W]
✅ Write your own objective function optionally

"The Mercury has begun descending into a den of right-wing misinformation. As former editors-in-chief, it is heartbreaking to watch the paper that we worked to make a legitimate outlet become weaponized in this way."

We need an investigation into why these "rolling" outages haven't been rolling into rich enclaves like Highland Park and Preston Hollow or into Downtown Dallas commercial buildings while other parts of the city have remained without power for the entire day.

Texas wholesale electric prices spike more than 10,000% amid outages. It’s unclear how high our bills will be,what relief will be available and who will qualify for that relief. Delaying laundry + running large appliances until Sunday helps you and others. reuters.com/article/us-elect…

Hate crimes and violence against Asian Americans and Asian immigrants have skyrocketed during the pandemic. That’s why our Administration has taken actions to address these xenophobic attacks. We must continue to commit ourselves to combating racism and discrimination.

Computer scientist @timnitgebru was abruptly fired from Google's Ethical AI lab. Here's what she told us about ethical AI at the 2020 #FCFestival just a few months ago.
