I'm a bit of an eclectic mess 🙂 I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

@aspiringcat Well, that’s one faux pas averted 😛

@aspiringcat I’ve just used it whenever — even when I was in my twenties … I’d just say “You know how scatterbrained I am, I just can’t remember stuff.” Or something like that. Of course, with age it becomes more believable 😛

@aspiringcat That’s what I generally say … or something similar. But I also blame my advancing age 😛 I say, “My memory’s not what it used to be and as I get older, I tend forget things more. So could you please refresh my memory as to how we know each other?”

@AngelaPreston Since the issue my wife experienced was in a third-party app, I don’t know for sure, but the symptoms sound the same and so I’m hoping it fixes the issue you’re seeing or at least changes things enough to give you a clue as to what is going on … If not, please let me know and I’ll see if I can do a bit more digging 🙂

Most of my embroidery is intuitive in that I pick colors and sometimes a stitch and then I just let the threads talk to each other. If anyone speaks “thread,” I’d love a translation cuz these had something to say.

The experience of deja vu occurs when someone in the future who's reading your biography loses their place, and flips back a few pages to reread them.

@AngelaPreston My wife ran into a similar situation where she had boost and replies hidden and it would show Load More but clicking wouldn’t do anything. That was in an app I was developing and the reason was that there were more posts but the whole batch of posts returned from the server were filtered out by the hide boosts/replies option and the software kind of got confused 🙂

What finally fixed it was for her to toggle off the hide boosts/replies options, Load More and then once the loading was complete turn them back on again. Maybe that might (or might not) help in your case? At least, worth trying I guess …

Posted regarding 8 papers in the cs.CV category (and two from other categories) out of a total of 76 papers in the cs.CV category on arXiv.org today …

On to other stuff now 🙂

"IKEA-Manual: Seeing Shape Assembly Step by Step. (arXiv:2302.01881v1 [cs.CV])" — A dataset consisting of 102 IKEA objects paired with assembly manuals to help improve/test shape assembly activities since the manuals provide step-by-step guidance on how we should move and connect different parts in a convenient and physically-realizable way.

@AngelaPreston I guess the things to try (you might have already tried these …) would be:
1. Clear browser cache
2. Logout of the account and log back in
3. If you have access to a VPN, try with the VPN on/off

Those would be what I’d try first in case this is somehow device/location specific. I do have the issue with getting about four posts on my particular server but that’s an Akkoma instance and my guess is that Akkoma has its own issues sometimes.

Hopefully, some of the above helps?

“Creating a Large Language Model of a Philosopher” — Tries to answer the question: “Can large language models be trained to produce philosophical texts that are difficult to distinguish from texts produced by human philosophers?” by fine-tuning OpenAI's GPT-3 with the works of philosopher Daniel C. Dennett.

“Towards Attention-aware Rendering for Virtual and Augmented Reality” — An attention-aware model of contrast sensitivity based on measuring contrast sensitivity under different attention distributions and discovering that sensitivity in the periphery drops significantly when the user is required to allocate attention to the fovea.

"The Learnable Typewriter: A Generative Approach to Text Line Analysis. (arXiv:2302.01660v1 [cs.CV])" — A generative document-specific approach to character analysis and recognition in text lines which builds on unsupervised multi-object segmentation methods, and in particular, those that reconstruct images based on a limited amount of visual elements, called sprites. This approach can learn a large number of different characters and leverage line-level annotations when available.
