Wow, as others have said below, disabling the “Slide to Type” feature in Settings > General > Keyboard makes typing work well again on iOS. I cannot believe I put up with this awful typing experience for the past year/years. This should be broadcast more widely somehow. I’m sure many people have just assumed they got worse at typing. I am genuinely flabbergasted.
HOLY shit.
You just changed my life. You're absolutely right.
It fixed the exact problem I could never quite pin down.
I guess the keyboard was always a bit too eager to detect a swipe?
This is absolutely nuts
edit: i can type without looking again! i hate that this was the issue.
This is an amazing archive of interviews. The audio quality is astounding — you would think these were podcasts from this week. I enjoyed the 1959 discussion with Arthur C. Clarke as well:

It really is. To quote an earlier comment of mine, the interview archive is immense and diverse. It spans 45 years, from 1952--1997, ran 1 hour each weekday, and the interview guests range from the highly famous to street and school interviews. I've hit on a few gems in particular.
The AWS back-end could be browsed or downloaded directly via AWS tools a ways back, and was about 600 GB last I'd checked. You'll have to sort out your own directory of content, however. Much of what's in there still isn't included in the official directory, again, at last check, though that includes numerous fragments and partial-tape interviews.
Coincidentally, I just toured the South Dakota minuteman launch control facility this week [1] and it was fascinating. The park ranger giving the tour was a veteran who manned the facility decades ago — amazing stories. You need to book tickets a few months in advance but well worth it if you’re in the area to visit Badlands, Mt. Rushmore, etc.
Yep, I’d highly recommend this as well. We did this a year or two ago as well and it was wild how the underground facilities worked, how small they were, and how remote and nondescript they were. Highly recommend visiting these sites if you’re into history!

Alert, Severity, information, Delta-01 Tour Fee and Reservations
All Delta-01 Launch Control Facility Tours require advanced reservations. Reservations can be made up to 90 days in advance on-line or by phone at 605-717-7629. No SAME-DAY tours available during the summer season.
-To practice for the moment of a real launch command, he would receive encoded messages every day that had to be manually decoded as quickly as possible — this decoding would be done independently by him and the second person on duty, and they would then compare to make sure they matched. In the case of a real launch, not only would the two people in the underground facility need to agree that the command was issued, but a second team in another facility would need to do the same.
-He was not allowed to know the targets of the missiles he would be launching, though these targets were fixed for each missile.
-It was almost assumed that if they were launching, they would have already been hit on the surface by a nuclear weapon (locations of the launch facilities were not secret, because they wouldn’t be a deterrent if they were secret). The two people underground are positioned in what looks like a shipping container suspended inside a submarine hull, all encased and locked behind one giant thick steel (?) door. If the elevator shaft had collapsed during an impact, they would be stuck inside to die. So they did include an escape hatch in the roof, but buried deep underground — this would involve the two men opening the escape hatch, letting a bunch of sand fall through, and then digging upward through 100-ish feet of ground over many days to get to a surface that was a wasteland. He was never really convinced that this would work, but the men had to believe that if they did their jobs, there would be some way to survive it.
Since the technical nugget is hidden in the code, the fun trick here is to alternate on odd and even steps between moving toward a duck in the latent space image and moving toward a rabbit in the 90-degree rotated version of the latent space image.
(Normally you would feed the output of step n right back in as input to step n+1. That’s what is not happening as usual here.)
"The story concerns a pair of boys who dismantle and upgrade an old Bard, a child's computer whose sole function is to generate random fairy tales. The boys download a book about computers into the Bard's memory in an attempt to expand its vocabulary, but the Bard simply incorporates computers into its standard fairy tale repertoire..."
Yes, the situation works. The fact that the first two logicians say “I don’t know” means they do want beer but they are unsure if everyone wants beer. The last logician knows this and can say “yes” at the end. If either of the first two logicians did not want beer they would also know that by definition it would mean “everyone wants beer” would be false and so they would have just said “no”.
I noticed this phenomenon when asking for a story involving Stephen Hawking, Darth Vader, and Wookiees. I spelled it “Wookies” by mistake and ChatGPT used my misspelling throughout the story despite seemingly getting all the other details correct.
Edit:
Part of the generated story:
As they continued to talk, Stephen and Darth realized that they had something else in common - they both had lost the use of their biological legs. Stephen had been diagnosed with ALS at a young age and had gradually lost the ability to move his legs, while Darth had lost his legs in a battle with Obi-Wan Kenobi on the planet of Mustafar.
Stephen and Darth discussed the challenges and obstacles that they had faced as a result of their mobility issues, and how they had adapted and overcome them. They also talked about the technological advancements that had allowed them to continue their work and pursue their passions, despite their limitations.
Suddenly, Stephen and Darth turned on each other, each revealing that they had been secretly plotting against the other. Stephen accused Darth of using the Force for evil and corrupt purposes, while Darth accused Stephen of using his scientific knowledge to create weapons of mass destruction.
You need CLIP to have CLIP guided diffusion. So the current situation seems to trace back to OpenAI and the MIT-licensed code they released the day DALL-E was announced. I would love to be corrected if I've misunderstood the situation.
You're totally right, OpenAI released CLIP in january. But I mean CLIP isn't an image generator, it's just a classifer. If we restrict the question to actual text to image generators (ignoring deep dream or some of the 'kinda cool but far from the coherency of post-2021 generators') then clip guided diffusion is kinda the first.
