How Daemon Targaryen’s dream in ‘House of the Dragon’ could be an attempt to fix the ‘Game of Thrones’ ending that everyone hated

Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) is plagued with prophetic visions in "House of the Dragon" season two, but his dream in the last episode possibly changes the ending of "Game of Thrones."In the finale, Alys Rivers (Gayle Rankin) takes Daemon to the weirwood tree in Harrenhal, where he has his final dream of the season. During the vision, he sees Brynden Rivers and a three-eyed raven — which is a nod to Bran Stark's (Isaac Hempstead Wright) journey in "Game of Thrones."He also sees the terrifying White Walkers marching through the north, which sets up the end of the series when…

Why do Frontend and Backend developers use Docker

Why do Frontend and Backend developers use Docker

Imagine you're building a simple to-do list app. It seems straightforward: a frontend to display tasks and a backend to store them. But let’s dive deeper and consider the following tech stack: Tech Stack #1 Frontend: Reactjs, Vite, CSS Preprocessor Backend: Nodejs, API Server Database: Mongo, Mongo Express The frontend, let's say, is a React app. It requires Vite, CSS Preprocessor and a specific React version. The backend, a Nodejs app, needs Node, API Server, a database (like MySQL/Postgres), and a few libraries. These are just the basics. Tech Stack #2 Frontend: Reactjs, Vite, CSS Preprocessor Backend: Nodejs, API Server…

Learning Structurally Stabilized Representations for Multi-modal Lossless DNA Storage

Learning Structurally Stabilized Representations for Multi-modal Lossless DNA Storage

arXiv:2408.00779v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we present Reed-Solomon coded single-stranded representation learning (RSRL), a novel end-to-end model for learning representations for multi-modal lossless DNA storage. In contrast to existing learning-based methods, the proposed RSRL is inspired by both error-correction codec and structural biology. Specifically, RSRL first learns the representations for the subsequent storage from the binary data transformed by the Reed-Solomon codec. Then, the representations are masked by an RS-code-informed mask to focus on correcting the burst errors occurring in the learning process. With the decoded representations with error corrections, a novel biologically stabilized loss is formulated…

Leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) for Traffic Management at Urban Intersections: The Case of Mixed Traffic Scenarios

Leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) for Traffic Management at Urban Intersections: The Case of Mixed Traffic Scenarios

arXiv:2408.00948v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Urban traffic management faces significant challenges due to the dynamic environments, and traditional algorithms fail to quickly adapt to this environment in real-time and predict possible conflicts. This study explores the ability of a Large Language Model (LLM), specifically, GPT-4o-mini to improve traffic management at urban intersections. We recruited GPT-4o-mini to analyze, predict position, detect and resolve the conflicts at an intersection in real-time for various basic scenarios. The key findings of this study to investigate whether LLMs can logically reason and understand the scenarios to enhance the traffic efficiency and safety by providing real-time…

Default interface methods no C#

Default interface methods no C#

Interfaces com métodos padrões se trata da capacidade de adicionar assinaturas de métodos em uma interface com um corpo definido (com um comportamento padrão ou mesmo um corpo vazio) fazendo com que as classes que implementam essa interface não tenham a obrigatoriedade de implementar esse novo método adicionado na interface. Imagine o seguinte cenário genérico: Temos uma interface IAnimal que contém métodos comuns que simulam comportamentos comuns de todos os animais. public interface IAnimal { void MakeSound(); void Eat(); void Sleep(); } Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode Temos 3 classes que representam animais terrestres e que implementam a interface…
