Good idea. What if it varies in quality based on different languages? I read a lot of texts with English, French, German, Greek, and Hebrew. The quality of the OCR goes in roughly that order. If there's enough Hebrew, it gets detected reasonably (but vowel points are less reliable). If there's not enough Hebrew, it might not get detected at all.
I'm using Google's OCR api on the backend after using my secret sauce to "fix" the scan. I've found it to work better than tesseract, and heard that it's better than azure or aws. Google claims to support a ton of languages. But obviously, quality varies... I can't just copy their claim because it doesn't reflect my experience of reality, so what do I say?
You don't need bone conduction for that, air pods pro 2 work just as well. Bone conducting headphones are mainly good for sports involving water (or sweat) IMO, but the quality is significantly subpar to regular headphones.
Also, you can definitely hear bone conducting headphones in the environment if the volume is high enough as the vibrations also vibrate the air.
* I'm sure Airpods are phenomenal for what they are, but I haven't ever found an earbud I can comfortably walk in without having them slip out very quickly, let alone run in. They're a class of product that just doesn't work for me.
* A nearby observer might be able to hear a bone-conducting headphone if you blast the volume, but the main point is that it doesn't reach a disturbing volume for anybody in the surrounding environment, unlike some other potential solutions.
* The audio quality isn't phenomenal, but is acceptable for the use case where you're out in public and still wanting to focus on the surrounding environment. I wouldn't use those kinds of headphones for general home use, but they're good enough for the intended purpose.
O'Dowd picked this route specifically to fail FSD, as he obviously has a financial interest and a vendetta against Musk. It was clear as day Gerber was gonna get tricked but he didn't care.
As can be seen in hundreds of uncut hours of driving, FSD is already pretty good and improving fast. Most rides don't req
Brave gives a very bad vibe (mostly due to the affiliate links scandal), I prefer to just use my favorite browsers (ff/edge) + uBlock Origin and Privacy Badger which give good privacy/adblock experience, are open source and customizable to my liking.
A minor autocomplete mistake from 2 years ago (quickly fixed and apologised for by the CEO [1]) is framed as a 'scandal'.
Meanwhile Mozilla is showing signs of serious, systemic internal org issues, and no problem? [2]
It's pretty clear a user / privacy-first model is central to Brave's mission, so these drive-by comments griping loudly about minor, historical issues never feel intellectually compelling.
Brave's encroachments can be turned off. On a new install, I disable the search bar Rewards icon, extensions area Wallet, and new tab page Sponsored Images, News, and Cards. (And maybe others still). Each of these requires active engagement from a user to produce and signal for a 3rd party.
Meanwhile, they also fund novel privacy and security research [1], including preventing advanced fingerprinting. In essence, the maintain a patch set on top of Chromium (the open source base of Chrome, that Edge also builds on) which more convincingly respects user privacy, security, and choice[2][3][4]. See how much effort they put into keeping Brave Ads convincingly private [5].
Each of these is less intrusive than changes (to stay recent and relevant) include direct partnership for promotions [6].
Or to base beliefs on a series of news reports that sound bad, see a longer list [7], though it's quite noisy list.
> One day you’ll find yourself wearing shorts. Fair enough, it’s probably hot out. One day you’ll also find yourself wearing a t-shirt. Again, fair enough. Unless you’re playing a sport, however, you will not be wearing the two together because you’re also no longer a ten-year-old boy.
Style and fashion are 80% personality, 20% clothing. You can be well dressed, but if you have the personality of a cardboard cutout, no one is going to remember you, or that you were dressed fashionably when they met you.
Also, just because you aren't wearing a t-shirt doesn't mean that what you are wearing is stylish. This 'tip' is just phrased in an annoyingly paternalistic way.
I've gotten stare downs for wearing a sweater at the wrong season there. Shorts are fine anywhere in the right crowd but east cost well to do people are very snobbish and strict about that stuff. They only wear shorts at the hamptons or florida lol. My point was don't assume it's an age thing.
