Yes the goal is to run it framework independent. Pytorch for example can export models to ONNX.

I have been using SumatraPDF on Windows for a long time. After opening a PDF file with it for the first time, I never went back to Adobe Reader. SumatraPDF is much faster, cleaner and less memory hungry.

All ENT doctors I have ever been to in Germany as well as Taiwan offer microsuction and it was always covered by public insurance as well. It was done by the doctor and not by nurses.

Yes. Chaotic systems arise in classical mechanics. So while often the formalism is easier to write down than for example in general relativity, calculating a solution is often very difficult or practically impossible.

That's great. I don't know how many forms I lost this way. Usually because the form focus is laggy or something stole the focus.

I made a simple GUI in python which essentially wraps OpenCV's getPerspectiveTransform/warpPerspective. It let's you select the four corners, chose an aspect ratio and do some simple postprocessing. I was working on edge dete

It's a nice demo and a good tutorial if you are interested in spell checkers. But imo it did more bad than good. A lot of libraries started to implement it. But it's quite horrible in performance.

Living in Taiwan as well, and physical PS4 games are much cheaper after some time. I buy most of my games at around 500-600 NTD (17 to 20 USD). But PS4 (and Switch) seems to be much more popular here than Xbox, so that might be a reason.

True. There might be other more expensive contracts, but most people in Taiwan that I know either have a "real" unlimited data contract for like 17 USD per month or a "fake" unlimited contract (with like 25GB and reduced

That looks pretty interesting. Even though I usually like native-widget-type GUI libraries, this one looks pretty special. Also I like that all rendering is actually done with low level GPU calls and doesn't depend on other common tool

It's worth supporting Chinese language projects just to see if all the tooling can really handle unicode... There is still too much software around today which breaks when presented with anything else than ASCII.
