Generating visual mnemonics to learn Chinese characters with the help of neural networks
By graphically representing its own meaning, my hypothesis is that this will create more associations between meaning and shape— making each character easier to remember
@b6hydra I'm not familiar with cname cloaking.
I do enjoy going back to basics when it works so incontrovertibly well, though.
First, I enjoyed the joke. Second, it should be noted that the Java-brand of OOP is not representative of true OOP (eg https://data-flair.training/blogs/is-java-an-object-oriented-language/). Reminds me, I still need to learn CLOS!

why do people hate java?
because it treats everyone like an object

I'm telling you, w3m or any other text-based browser wins right here! The content we care about is usually text, forget about popups, ads, and subscription requests!

This is one of the major benefits I've enjoyed about #Clojure Garden #css for four years: easy nesting of the rules. Nice to see css proper may catch up. https://github.com/noprompt/garden

@abloo okay. I have lots of experience with errors and warnings both, but I haven't used Web-GL in years (does three.js count?)

@abloo I see the warnings on the console, but where are the errors?
@dthompson Are you working in C?
@yogthos@mastodon.social but isn't the difference that you can find the deliberate decision tree that in which someone made a choice that led to massive death, vs one a result of unforeseen consequences?
I'm not familiar with the Irish-Bengali events, unless that refers to the Blight famine
@yogthos@mastodon.social Thanks. I've grabbed that book and look forward to reading it. The main criticism against communism that I hear is that it has several incredible, ground-shaking failures in the death counts of Stalin and, later, Mao. Communism is a proven failure, they say.

@yogthos@mastodon.social How do Stalin and the disasters he made tie in to the narrative?
I saw this toot before I saw the thread and thought you were talking about Enter the Spiderverse.
Where can I find Red Panda?

The new show had an incompatible tone with the original pilots, being firmly rooted in our reality like the movies at the time. In our history. But unlike those movies (X-Men, Sam Raimi's Spiderman, Hulk, Batman Begins, Hellboy, etc) Gregg Taylor doesn't seem to see cheesiness as conflicting with realism. Darkness with lightheartedness. Magic with pseudoscience.
And he got better production quality without professional support! And as much time to tell his story as he needed.
5/5 Fin.
@yogthos@mastodon.social Wow! I'm a former chess teacher and get most of my Russian culture from defected chess masters, Garry Kasparov, and cold-war anecdotes. So there is definitely some room for bias in there.

great to have that all in one place. I can relate, I usually use archlinux docs even if im not on archlinux specifically because I know they will give me the command line way of doing things. Plus Archlinux is fairly vanilla.
