    The number of cars on American roads increased from 8,000 in 1900 to 8m in 1920. This growth rate (1000x increase over two decades) is exactly equivalent to Moore's law for transistors. But a century earlier! With products that weighed half a ton each!

    "tackling safety and bias in the models is a key focus area for us, and given the challenges related to this, we are not currently releasing an external research demo." (Extremely cool work that also highlights the policy challenges of synthetic text. Lots of work to do!)

    If stock photography has taught us one thing it's how to recognise a hacker! But how much do we really know about these shady characters, with their balaclava and their Windows 7 laptops? For here's my essential stock photography guide to ...

    Amazed that I remembered what *FX 19 does (wait for vertical sync) and *FX 229 (enable/disable Escape key). Also, shocked by how messy and inefficient my code is
