naevaTheRat , to aww in I made dis. Pls be gentle

We also tend to share our babies with dogs. My sister has recently had skin dogs and my fur babies are very interested in standing by the bassinet and watching over them. They’re also extremely patient with their flailing hands and curious fingers.

While the reasons why aren’t all peachy, and much of the framework it happens in is incredibly abusive and horrible, what humans and dogs share is very beautiful.

My dog recently broke her leg, she was screaming in terrible pain, but she went dead silent when we arrived and started investigating. That level of trust is incredible. I don’t know exactly what’s going on in her head, but I know that when something is wrong and I show up to help her breathing calms and she relaxes. Just as when I think I hear something in the night or whatever I look to her for guidance on whether it’s a threat.

naevaTheRat , to Ask Science in [Biology] The umbilical cord: is it 'necessary' to sever it, or is it designed to disconnect on its own eventually?

I don’t really understand why you wouldn’t though? Like it’s just an organ, people eat organs all the time. At least this one involved bringing life into the world instead of death.

The only reason not to is if your brain is fucked up enough that you think it’s icky or something.

naevaTheRat , (edited ) to Sysadmin in Best OCR software for a small business with a one time need?

Depending on the quality of the scan a quick python script using tesseract might be enough. Probs examples online

the handwriting will be full of errors but spell check and an editing pass should be fine? I imagine you’ll have to do that anyway

naevaTheRat , to Ask Science in If GPTs only predict the next word how do they decide between "a" and "an". Wouldn't this have massive effect on their abilities?

GPT creates plausible looking sentences, it has no concept of truth or anything like that. Since if you have an “an” it’s overwhelmingly likely that the next word will begin with a vowel it will choose one which plausibly fits with the corpus of text that came before. Likewise for an “a”.

There is no compromise in ability. It doesn’t have anything to “say” or whatever. What it produces is more like nonsense poetry than speech.
