Amazon unearths the Echo Spot from the dustbin of its product line

Amazon unearths the Echo Spot from the dustbin of its product line

Amazon has revealed an all-new Echo Spot ahead of Prime Day. It’s very much like the original Echo Spot that came out in 2017 and was discontinued two years later except the front face is now split between a hemispherical display and speaker.Amazon says the new model comes with better sound and a sharper display. Time will tell if the reboot suffers from the same screen flicker issues as its predecessor. Otherwise, the conceit is more or less identical: it's a bare-bones smart alarm clock that, via Alexa integration, can manage a few simple tasks like providing the weather forecast…

Next.js with Shadcn UI Progress Bar Example

Next.js with Shadcn UI Progress Bar Example

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use a progress bar in Next.js with Shadcn UI. Before using the progress bar in Next.js 13 with Shadcn UI, you need to install it by running npx shadcn-ui@latest add progress. npx shadcn-ui@latest add progress # or npx shadcn-ui@latest add Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode Create a progress bar in Next.js 13 using the Shadcn UI Progresscomponent. import { Progress } from "@/components/ui/progress" export default function ProgressDemo() { return ( <div className="space-y-2"> <Progress value={10} /> <Progress value={25} /> <Progress value={50} /> <Progress value={75} /> <Progress value={100} /> </div> ) } Enter…

Domain-Aware Fine-Tuning of Foundation Models

Domain-Aware Fine-Tuning of Foundation Models

arXiv:2407.03482v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Foundation models (FMs) have revolutionized computer vision, enabling effective learning across different domains. However, their performance under domain shift is yet underexplored. This paper investigates the zero-shot domain adaptation potential of FMs by comparing different backbone architectures and introducing novel domain-aware components that leverage domain related textual embeddings. We propose domain adaptive normalization, termed as Domino, which explicitly leverages domain embeddings during fine-tuning, thus making the model domain aware. Ultimately, Domino enables more robust computer vision models that can adapt effectively to various unseen domains. Source link lol

Contrastive Chain-of-Thought Prompting

Contrastive Chain-of-Thought Prompting

arXiv:2407.03600v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Rapidly increasing model scales coupled with steering methods such as chain-of-thought prompting have led to drastic improvements in language model reasoning. At the same time, models struggle with compositional generalization and are far from human performance on many reasoning-based benchmarks. Leveraging the success of chain-of-thought prompting, and also taking inspiration from context-aware decoding (CAD), we explore input-based contrasting methods to further encourage the type of reasoning induced by chain-of-thought prompting. While work remains to stabilize these results across datasets and models, the improvements we find warrant further investigation into input-based steering methods for context-aware reasoning.…

A $1.9 million Nantucket beach property sold for $200K after parts of it got swallowed by the sea

A $1.9 million Nantucket beach property sold for $200K after parts of it got swallowed by the sea

A Nantucket beach house once estimated to be worth $1.9 million was sold for just $200,000 after parts of the property got swallowed by the sea, the Nantucket Current reported.According to the local outlet, Jane Carlin and her husband, Ben Gifford, bought the beach house in 1988 on the western end of Nantucket, a crescent-shaped island 30 miles off the coast of Cape Cod, Massachusetts.At the time, the couple's property was separated from the Atlantic Ocean by three nearer properties, an acre of land, and a road, per the paper.But after 36 years of land erosion, the ocean has swallowed…
