Not just that, but on larger timescales, running out of organic training data.

It's short term thinking all around.

The breadth of capability this guy has is insane to me. Almost every time I watch one of his videos I find that he's managed to basically gain a new field of expertise. It's really impressive.

Another fun fact: retinol is regenerated by your liver. Not your eyes, not some part of your brain, not some organ near your head like your thalamus which could probably get the job done if it tried, your fucking liver. Your eyes taking a while to adjust to the dark has basically nothing to do with your eyes; it’s because of the delay in adjustment by your fucking liver to produce more retinal, dump it into your vascular system and wait for it to hopefully reach your eyes.

This is fascinating, I had no idea that there was another mechanism at play to improve low light vision other than pupil dilation

Disagree on eyes. Light is EM radiation, not a mechanical wave like sound. Your retina isn't 'touching' anything but the vitreous.

I know haha was just joking

Well, not the person in need that's getting transfusions of blood filled with microplastics.

Is this why pip packages are called wheels...?

Everything about this comment brings me so much joy

I haven't personally used a library in a very long time, but, having spent a sizeable portion of my youth reading, I have such fond memories of my mum taking me and my siblings to libraries when we were young and poor.

Genuinely one of the most beautiful things that exists in society. Free knowledge, available to anyone and everyone, with no expectations of payment. I read somewhere that if someone came up with the idea of a library in today's world, it would never happen. The fact that libraries exist in the modern world in spite of the commercialisation of everything, restores some of my faith in humanity.

My only concern is battery usage. Google has the advantage of OS integration, which skims location data for timeline history even when another app accesses location, which uses essentially no battery (since you would've been using location for that other app anyway).

But it's awesome that a tool like this exists anyways, great work.

(in exchange for the ability to go outside)

As an Australian, do I have anything I can do to help make sure that these regulations are implemented?
