I think it’s a more global movement.

When I was recruited at my university in the early 2000s, every teacher had an ftp-accessible space with an http address like myuni.edu/~myname. The more techie ones did html, the fancier ones even added css. Muggles would export html from a Word document.

Then one day, the IT department decided to replace this with a “learning management system”. A wysiwyg platform with dozens of modules for videoconferencing courses, homework submission, online exams, and so forth.

Except that the user (the teacher) no longer has control over his or her personal space.

I understand the statement is about in-game stuff, but I’m guessing a lot of game developers have been using GitHub Copilot and this kind of “AI tools” for months.

Singular Value Decomposition is widely used in machine learning, image processing, natural language processing, recommender algorithms…

Stable Video Diffusion is a good marketing name, but SVD is quite confusing from an academic point of view.

It’s not the best idea to call it SVD, as it already stands for Singular Value Decomposition.

I just checked: there’s absolutely no problem with this one. And even better: it produces a lot of nectar for the European bees.

It’s quite common in the parks and gardens in the South of France, where it’s nicknamed “rince-bouteille” (bottle rincer). I didn’t know it came from Australia.

Unions don’t work the same way in all european countries.

In France, the union I belong to is organized by local company and public service, with a spawling system of dual cascading federations by geographic sector and economic sector.

And there are several competing national union organizations which overlap. I don’t know exactly how the other ones are organized

Getting Nintendo would be a career moment for me

Who cares about your career? How could it be a justification for anything?

Picross games are the Nintendo version of the pen-and-paper puzzles called nonograms. I’m pretty sure you can find this kind of puzzles on steam or websites.
