Tasks the Apple Neural Engine Takes Responsibility For

It’s time to dive into just what sort of jobs the Neural Engine takes care of. As previously mentioned, every time you use Face ID to unlock your iPhone or iPad, your device uses the Neural Engine. When you send an animated Memoji message, the Neural Engine is interpreting your facial expressions.

That’s just the beginning, though. Cupertino also employs its Neural Engine to help Siri better understand your voice. In the Photos app, when you search for images of a dog, your iPhone does so with ML (hence the Neural Engine.)

Initially, the Neural Engine was off-limits to third-party developers. It couldn’t be used outside of Apple’s own software. In 2018, though, Cupertino released the CoreML API to developers in iOS 11. That’s when things got interesting.

The CoreML API allowed developers to start taking advantage of the Neural Engine. Today, developers can use CoreML to analyze video or classify images and sounds. It’s even able to analyze and classify objects, actions and drawings.

I’m 53 and I can’t stand non dark mode. So either I’m an outlier or your theory is wrong.

Most companies now use fax severs which use the same SIP trunks that phone calls to the business use. Even if they are using old POTS lines the fax machines themselves are usually not in a secure area, but out in the open where anyone can walk by and pick them up.

I had to have a discussion with our cyber group that didn’t understand this and insisted that we encrypt our digital fax sever. I tried many ways to convince them that it simply was not possible to encrypt faxes when we were getting or sending faxes to random people in the general population. It really tested my patience and my ability to stretch the truth so they would drop their idiotic request.

I have a fair bit of home automation setup at home. So if I walk into a room the lights turn on, walk out and they turn off.

Every time I am visiting someone or in a hotel I am deeply confused why the lights don’t turn on themselves.

And yet they still don’t offer high quality audio.

We need a 4th emergency service for people in crisis to just evac them from bad situations, almost like the witness protection.

I don’t want to get too political in shower thoughts, but this would solve a lot of the hot button issues if more people just had safer and supportive environments to escape to and volunteers / paid professionals to help them on the other end.

It was a shame they went with such a terrible name for this. It just gave the other side way more bs talking points.

Hell the Austin Tx police department (union really) is still butt hurt that they even thought about taking away money from them that they are still refusing to respond to most calls.

Downloaded and like every app I go looking for the option to increase the font size. Sadly like most Lemmy apps this seems to not be high on the list for early releases . Can’t test it if I can barley see the text in the post and comments without squinting.

Hopefully it is high on the list of things to add. Until them it is still Memmy for me.

I did know but actually forgot about that. I already had the text size in my control center. Regardless I will stick with apps that give me that option in the app itself. Memmy and voyager have it and are my gotos.

I should add that I forgot about it as well defined apps have it in their app settings and do t make me go looking for it elsewhere. And I get it. Maybe I’m not the demographic you are after. I wish you well with the app.

Texas troopers told to push children into Rio Grande, deny water to migrants, records say (www.houstonchronicle.com)

Officers working for Gov. Greg Abbott’s border security initiative have been ordered to push small children and nursing babies back into the Rio Grande, and have been told not to give water to asylum seekers even in extreme heat, according to an email from a Department of Public Safety trooper who described the actions as...

Am I missing something? I read the European report like 8 times and no where does it mention replaced without tools. Most of it talks about controlling the lifecycle of the battery.

For you it might have been. But it went to shit for me long before the Apple announcement. As with most things location, location, location.

As other have said there are various weather models produced by different companies. And some are better in certain areas than others.

Apple sources it us data from the weather channel. Which is a pretty shitty source. Would be nice if they had options for the other sources.

Per apple it looks like for the US they use the weather channel.

Apple didn’t add anything on top of SMS. iMessage users data and has all the ‘cool’ features. If it cant reach someone via iMessage it falls back to plain old SMS.

In setting in Safari under the autofill tab you must have using information from my contacts checked. Without that checked it won’t prompt you. With it checked it will.

I’m not defending apple here as apple weather has shown thunderstorms for months for me when it has been nothing but hot or hotter. But modeling weather is had and depending on where you are different models are better than others. The downside with apple weather is they only have one source.

And to those that say dark sky was better it was t dir me. It was wrong more than it was right for me.

This only works in the US, it find which weather source is more accurate, then look for their app or a 3rd party that uses them.

Why only iCloud.? It isn’t much easier to move from google to iCloud.

I hope not. I just canceled my Amex platinum card because they didn’t have my back on a $33 charge back.

As much as I love my Apple Card I would probably drop it if Amex takes over.

I’ve had great luck with my Citi card.

I made the mistake of ordering a Nordictrak bike and paid for non refundable delivery and setup. After getting screwed around from nordictrak CItibank got me my full money back, almost $3000 including the non refundable setup and delivery.

Amex wouldn’t do anything for $33. I will always trust Citi bank over anyone else.
