Weird, I've never needed to do that - Royal Mail or whichever courier is handling it will either put a note for customs payment through the door (Royal Mail/Parcelforce), or send me an invoice via post or email (any of the other couriers).
Yeah, that's because cuda on a mac isn't a thing - it could be swapped to the normal torch package but you'd have to do some code patching to make sure it's running on mps, even then some of the code may need rewriting/patching if there's no mps version of the cuda kernals.
Isn't there a common PyTorch API interface that could chose OS/hardware specific backend automatically? Or this project is hard coding cuda variant of PyTorch as a requirement?
Not all battery technology is as volatile as Lithium-Ion or Lithium Polymer, LiFePO4 for example isn't subject to thermal runaway, nor are some of the Sodium-Ion batteries (although it's dependent on the exact chemistry being used).
PLA doesn't actually biodegrade outside of specialist industrial facilities, it was much vaunted as an eco friendly thing when 3d printing started using it, but we rapidly found out it can last decades without breaking down much if at all.
I'm pretty sure these are cherry-picked out of many generation attempts, I tried a few basic things and it flat out refused to do many of them like turning a cartoon illustration into a real-world photographic portrait, it kept wanting to create a pixar style image, then when I used an ai generated portrait as an example, it refused with an error saying it wouldn't modify real world people...
I then tried to generate some multi-angle product shots from a single photo of an object, and it just refused to do the whole left, right, front, back thing, and kept doing things like a left, a front, another left, and weird half back/half side view combination.
I use the API directly but unless I'm having a "Berenstein Bears moment" I could have sworn those safety settings existed under the Advanced Options in AI Studio a few weeks ago.
Not anywhere near as much as the stereotypes/memes/etc would have you believe.
Most of the issue though is the water companies funnelling revenue to shareholders and not maintaining the network, so they lose an awful lot of water through leaking pipes.
The privatisation of critical utilities and infrastructure was such a stupid move.
That said, the recommendation is nonsense, emails and photos make up a tiny fraction of the cooling requirements for data centres.
Currently, because of the warming climate, the UK is actually getting more and more rain. But the problem is that rainfall is also getting more irregular, so it rains a lot then not at all for longer than before.
Overall this is "just" a question of infrastructure, which means long term investments that have dried up (pun intended!) decades ago.
The regulators determine how much the utilities can spend on maintenance and construction activities, not the companies.
If these activities were not capped, the companies are naturally incentivised to build more to boost their regulated asset value, which means they can make more money.
Yeah, the unformatted capacities of 3.5” floppy disks were:
SS-DD - 512KB
DS-DD - 1MB
HD - 2MB
ED - 4MB
LS (floptical) - 21MB
Technically you could format some of the lower density media in the high density drives and get the expanded capacity (although you may have needed to modify the media a little - holepunch to make an HD drive see a DS-DD disc as “HD”), although it wasn’t always very reliable and depended on the physical media and the capabilities of the individual drives.
Different file systems used the 2*80 tracks differently, hence the different formatted capacity, DOS usually had the lowest, Macintosh in the middle, Amiga had the most (although the Amiga HD floppies were a bit of a cludge - the drive spun at half speed due to a limitation of the Amiga floppy controller, which was also the reason you couldn’t just use a “PC” HD floppy in an Amiga without modification).
In general, the people who like EVs hate Elon's politics, and the people who like Elon's politics hate EVs. This significantly reduces the amount of people who want to buy a Tesla.
This is the risk when you tie your brand to a single person, especially someone who loves being in the spotlight. Whenever that person does something controversial, that reflects poorly on the brand.
As a (former) huge tesla fan/shareholder, and current model 3 enjoyer, the cybertruck really makes me upset. The millions of dollars and engineering hours devoted to that thing that could have been devoted to a new product that people actually want and use (or even a halo product like the forgotten new roadster) was and is incredibly wasteful.
The cybertruck is the full vehicle version of the mistake Musk made by pushing for the falcon-wing doors on Model X. He said that was a huge mistake, and nothing like that would ever happen again.
