A new, potentially revolutionary artificial intelligence framework called "Blackout Diffusion" generates images from a completely empty picture, meaning that, unlike other generative diffusion models, the machine-learning algorithm does not require initiating a "random seed" to get started. To think that we used to call that "generating images". How primitive we were!

I wonder if the AIs will someday get the "shock of the white paper" that many writers / artists have experienced..

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Idk what that is and made an attempt to google but meh.

I don't know how it is translated...
it is when a writer sits in front of what has to be page #1 of a new book/chapter and gets blocked (although more usual at the very beginning, later is easier to continue).
It is real and can last longer than they would like.

"Writer's block". Not sure what it's called for artists though.

Artist's Block
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I call bullshit.
I don't know where the trick is. But I'm gonna put my foot down on saying that there is one.

With hackers abusing GitHub to perpetuate their attacks, Microsoft should use AI to clean up its industry-leading software-sharing platform. Obviously needs more AI

I would not bet that the AI in Github isn't part of the problem...

Microsoft has released a new version of the Dev Home app, a special tool made to make life easier for developers using Windows. Bringing it home to Windows 10
I still don't see the point. But I suppose that's just me. I also didn't really see the point with Windows Terminal.

Glad to be of assistance! Have a much warmer day than we are having in Montana! Or are you also caught in this cold snap?

Cold snap yes, but that's very relative. Currently 0C (but with a bit of wind). Going down to -12C tonight. Might have to cover the daffodils

Currently -20° C here, and predicted to get to -34 with wind chill in a couple days... Fun times!

Supposedly that'll be us in Chicago on Monday, 'it builds character' as my dad used to say. 
"the debugger doesn't tell me anything because this code compiles just fine" - random QA comment

Enjoy all that extra 'character!'
(Some of us call it 'frost' - attached to frozen appendages.)

Well at least we'll have safe ice on which to go fishing, my missus says I have more character than brains, perhaps. 🥶

In 2024, expect a retreat from cloud-native and outsourced development, as well as fewer developer jobs but more software security problems. Your guess is as good as his: 2024 Edition

The company says it’s focusing on ‘quality and reliability’ while also laying off hundreds. It’s also changing how the microphone works in the Google app and Pixel Search bar. Why cancel the product once, when you can cancel it feature by feature?
