Re:Arbitrary-Scale Super-Resolution with Neural Heat Fields

I'm not a data scientist, but I assume that having more information about the subject would yield better results. In particular, upscaling faces doesn't produce convincing outcomes; the results tend to look eerie and uncanny.

Instead of training on vast amounts of arbitrary data that may lead to hallucinations, wouldn't it be better to train on high-resolution images of the specific subject we want to upscale? For example, using high-resolution modern photos of a building to enhance an old photo of the same building, or using a family album of a person to upscale an old image of that person. Does such an approach exist?

Re:Why Use ECC Memory
on Wednesday May 08, 2024 @07:09AM (#40296628)
I've been there, and it was a pain. All my backups were corrupted due to a faulty RAM module. Initially, I blamed the hard drives because they seemed to be failing right before my eyes. I was copying a large file; sometimes it copied okay, but occasionally it would become corrupted. Since then, I've been paying a premium for ECC.

The demoscene has always been about real-time graphics. It never sought to compete with video animations. Many demosceners were, at heart, game developers who valued and appreciated real-time code, often considering animations to be "lame".

Re:ECC RAM should be a human right

Silent data corruption is silent. ECC should be mandatory just for the error reporting. The system should inform the user that a DIMM has gone bad and needs replacement.

Latest Intel desktop CPUs (i.e. i9-13900KF) supports ECC with the W680 chipset.

Also cache matters a lot. If n is small an array is always faster by a big margin.

Proof of work is the only system where you can look at the blockchain data and figure out the consensus. All other systems depends on people agreeing on what is the truth. PoW is not just superior, it's essential for true decentralized crypto.

Re:Bitcoin hits new all-time high above $63,000 ahead of Coinbase debut

You assume that early adopters still hold their Bitcoins. A tiny fraction of them might, most of them have sold (and regretted it, me including).
The Bitcoin traders are estimated to a few hundred million, certainly not "a few". Coinbase alone have approximately 56 million accounts.
The market is constantly crashing and reviving, people refusing to take the risk and buy should not complain afterwards for the new "elite" class. You had your chance (multiple times).
