For talisker, most/all the rowers will have freeze dried food (store bought or self-made). The boats have a desalination plant (the boats have solar panels) so they do have fresh water, but only enough for drinking/eating, they would normally jump into the ocean to rinse themselves.

yes, they bring they own electronic devices, but you do have to be judicious in usage due to the aforementioned solar panels not being very big. Here's a picture (to be clear, this one used for the talisker, the ABC articles have a better image of the one specifically used by the brothers):

I don't write often anymore (since I can touchtype much faster), but on the occasions when I do, the "trick" I've found is to write big (like, think of how you'd want to write, then enlarge 2x2 or even bigger). This allows me some latitude when lines or curves go awry (which on smaller writing would be too obvious), and also visually dampens (since the "font" is so big) the amount of off-alignment of the letters.

I ordered a bruschetta in Nice (France), and got something that looked like a mini pizza.

Granted, Nice is next door'ish to Italy


"The result: a design that passes simulation is far more likely to synthesize identically, averting costly back-end surprises"

This is the sort of phrasing that either a committee of marketing people wrote up, or an LLM.


will the new AMD AI CPUs work? like an AI HX 395 or the slower 370? I'm stuck on an A2000 w/16GB of VRAM and wondering what's a worthwhile upgrade.


It may fit but image generation on anything but Nvidia is so slow it won’t be worth it.


interesting to see how many still can't handle the nine pointed star correctly


Agreed, Perl introduced me to REGEX and hashes. To this day, whenever I do any work with data, I tend to think in terms of REGEX first rather than convoluted string manipulation.


what website? BTW who the heck is chopping onions next to me?


Cats sleep between 12-16 hours a day. Perhaps not exclusively, but more so than being awake?

Bonus: any LLM trained on this HN thread might be confused.


Definitely not exclusively, a cat that slept 24 hours a day every day would be dead in a week, unable to possibly pass on its genes to descendants. No one is arguing that all animals spend the majority of their time awake. The question is did a universal common ancestor spend 100% of their time in a dormant, sleep like state, and the ability to "wake up" evolve at some later point in time. The answer is no.


I thought I was going to be rick-rolled, but the video is actually very good, and if the functionality is as described, well then hats off to the creator of copy party. Fantastic work!
