Here;s something a little lighter given the news of late.
We’ve all seen programming as depicted in movies and television and laughed at the sheer absurdity of it.
Joma Tech ponders what programming would look like in Anime.
A junior engineer tries solve a coding problem, but he has trouble finding the solution. He needs help, will he be able to solve it?
Eurovision is annual event in Europe and had I not lived in Europe to experience it, I doubt I would be able to understand it.
Essentially, European countries compete in a Europop contest every year. The winner becomes a national hero and their song gets a lot of airplay.
Songs in the contest have a distinct tone and flavor. It’s hard for me to quantify, yet an AI pretty much nailed it.
The project team fed hundreds of Eurovision songs – melodies and lyrics – into a neuron network. Then, algorithms produced thousands of new tunes and lines of verse, from which a few musical units were carefully selected and “welded” into a song.
Lyrics below the video.
Lyrics:
I am lost when i’m with you
There’s no hesitation in your eyes
Baby bye bye bye
Oh bye bye bye
Baby by myself the stain
grows more obvious
In this pain of the bird who’s flying
Over roses of sadness
Baby bye bye bye
Oh bye bye bye
Baby summer’s gone
It’s gone for the both of us
And tears will always have wet eyes
I’ll cry but I’ll survive
On a mission
I will let you go forever
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Blue jeans and bloody tears
There’s no life without your life in misery
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Don’t give up on a precious summer
Rolling in the moonshine
Baby by bye-bye
Oh by bye-bye
Baby let me go
So close to the holy ground
Tears will always have wet eyes
I’ll cry but I’ll survive
On a mission
I will let you go forever
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Blue jeans and bloody tears
There’s no life without your life in misery
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Don’t break my heart – It’s powerless
This magic is in spite of me
Don’t keep me hanging on
Don’t break my heart – It’s powerless
This magic is in spite of me
Don’t keep me hanging on
keep me hanging on
keep me hanging on
I will let you go forever
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Blue jeans and bloody tears
There’s no life without your life in misery
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Blue jeans and bloody tears
Blue jeans and bloody tears
There’s no life without your life in misery
Blue jeans and bloody tears
This will get your Monday off to a funny start
When an office worker calls the IT department to solve a computer issue, confusion leads to Pennywise showing up when hearing a call for “It,” and things don’t make much more sense when information technology finally arrives.
We’ve all seen those inspirational quotes on Instagram, office walls, and even LinkedIn.
Here’s a site that generates them via AI and, when it misses the mark, makes for some humorous moments.
Here are a few I generated.
This one is rather macabre.
It definitely can be.
I’m pretty sure that’s now how it works.
Once in place, bureaucracies seldom go away.
In this video, Siraj Raval does something that your middle school math teacher did not: make math fun, funny, and engaging.
Jabrils has an interesting concept here: a Turing Test themed game show.
We all know that engineers don’t think like normal people: it’s what makes us unique.
Watch this video to see how “Engineer Man” responds to a Craigslist scammer and learn a Python trick or two.
Now, I want him to show me how to deal with robocalls.
