F1 in Hungary: Please stop saying Monaco without the walls

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-12-14 08:42:19

Formula 1 teams can start their annual summer break today. Sometime this month, each of the 10 teams has to close its factory for 14 consecutive days. Laptops stay in the office, email goes unchecked. It all sounds very civilized for a sport where the difference between hero and zero can come down to milliseconds. As was the case at this past weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, at least in qualifying. When the Hungaroring was added to the calendar back in 1986, it was F1's first true foray behind t

Do LLMs identify fonts?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-12-10 15:56:24

Spoiler: not really dafont.com is a wonderful website that contains a large collection of fonts. It’s more comprehensive and esoteric than Google Fonts. One of its features is a forum where users can ask for help identifying fonts – check out this poor fellow who’s been waiting for over two years and bumped his thread. I thought it would be interesting to see if an LLM could do this task, so I scraped the forum and set up a benchmark. I implemented this as a live benchmark. By this I mean that

Airbnb guest says host used AI-generated images in false $9,000 damages claim

techspot.com Rob Thubron 2025-12-16 00:15:00

WTF?! One of the many fears about AI use becoming widespread is that people can now alter images – sometimes convincingly – without any technical skills. An example of this surfaced recently when an Airbnb guest said a host manipulated photos in a false £12,000 ($9,041) damage claim. The incident took place earlier this year when a London-based woman booked a one-bedroom apartment in New York's Manhattan for two-and-a-half months while she was studying, reports The Guardian.

If taking an aspirin or simply lying down isn't cutting it when you have a headache, you may want to consider what's on your plate for relief.

The caller’s name is likely to pop up on caller ID, and their carrier may be discoverable with a quick lookup. One could infer that the caller is awake and available at the time of the call.
