I think you underestimating how good these image generators are at the moment.


oh i mean the other direction! checking if a generated image is "good" that no one will tell something is off and it look naturally, rather than checking if they are fake.


I'd give them a stack of Slackware floppies and half the manual.


Pretty sure that's against the Geneva convention.


This comment made my day :D


If that was in the 1990s that would be impressive

If that was in the 2020s...


I'm very curious to know how it got on with that. I've had Claude Code write me a Forth for a custom CPU and then write applications on top of that. It get's there but unsurprisingly it's nowhere near as fluent in it as Python.


That's great. Is there anyway to make it part of a scikit-learn compatible pipeline.?


Do you mean being able to wrap the created model in a scikit-learn Pipeline? This isn't something we've thought about and we haven't explicitly built support for it, though we could.

As of now, I think you could relatively easily wrap the plexe model, which has a `predict()` method, in a scikit-learn Estimator. You could then plug it into a Pipeline.

What do you have in mind? How would you want to use this with scikit-learn pipelines?


I think what I'm after is being able to put these in pipeline.

I.e. if I already have some data cleaning/normalisation, some dimensional reduction and then some fitting, being able to drop the Agent in place with an appropriate description and task.

Cleaning: Feed it a data frame and have it figure out what needs imputing etc.

The rest: Could either be separate tasks or one big task for the Agent..


Interesting! We don't currently support this explicitly.

You could wrap the Plexe-built model in a scikit-learn Estimator like I mentioned, and you can specify the desired input/output schema of the model when you start building it, so it will fit into your Pipeline.

This is an interesting requirement for us to think about though. Maybe we'll build proper support for the "I want to use this in a Pipeline" use case :)


They did this before, about five years ago. I had to send it back to them for a fix and it came back a few weeks later.

Yeah, some people say they got replacements through the warranty. The problem is, this thing is really big and heavy, so boxing it up is a real pain, especially if you've had it a while and already threw out the original box.


That's why my buddy said it's time to buy shares in bubble wrap


Nah, just be a geezer and wrap it in bin bags and then tape around. It's bricked anyway, innit.


Waste of bin bags. Just write the address on the front in marker pen.


I assume you never bought Samsung again.

'Having' (paid for) a device for not having it for weeks is not that customer friendly attitude. It is almost in the same league with how UK furniture makers exploit customers. You get into the shop, see something nice, start ordering it, casually ask about the delivery date, cancelling the whole thing and run to an Ikea after learning that it will take somewhere between 4-6 months, depending on the workload of the factory. They are insane! I mean those who actually buy this way. The manufacturers are just brazen. Thinking that someone goes into the shop for leaving behind money for the honor of using a product of theirs sometime in the unspecific mid term future, instead of like NOW!? Shameless.


> I assume you never bought Samsung again.

I boycotted Samsung after having similar troubles with their computer screens. Essentially, they chose a weird adapter for the screen that I can't find anywhere making the screen essentially useless.

I no longer buy anything Samsung. I can't say the same about other people as Samsung is essentially an Advertising company that happens to have consumer products.


Aren't all such?

Spending furtune on lies, then more on liers to lie about their frequent failures. Instead of spending on honest work and good products. It is petty so few boycott crap and crappy attitudes. And the masses eat up lies happily. So sad.



ASML own 24.9% of ZEISS SMT, the part of ZEISS which makes the lenses for them.


Pure ideology


I mean, if a consumer wants to round up to the nearest dollar on their online purchase of Tyson Frozen Pork Cutlets 8 Pcs (which most certainly has a calculable carbon footprint caused from deforestation) to plant some trees to offset that deforestation, why not?


But it's worth trying.


Don't be a big meanie


Someone should have told zuck this when he decided that spreading extremism was a fantastic business model. And calling his users dumb fucks,of course


You're leaving out a million grandparents who keep up with their grandkids' milestones across oceans through FB(like mine), and the countless old friendships rekindled(like mine). American exceptionalism?


HN confuses me sometimes. So we are against FB because it "spreads extremism", yet we're claiming that any and all moderation is a violation of free speech. Wat?


no


I'm still searching for authentic tasting America balls.


My theory is, Skinner likes dog food.


Skinner was a Vietnam War POW and lived of a fish stew/curry for 3 years. It seams he really misses it.
