Any proper selfdriving or other advanced robotics company should do. In my company (specialized autonomous vehicles) we’ll probably have such role soon.

For low light portraiture get yourself an aps-c mirrorless with a modern 56 or 30/1.4 lens and get both image quality and portability, no need for full-frame now outside of pro sports or wildlife.

In my hands the iPhone 12 consistently performs better in indoor conditions than my old a5100 (basically a more compact a6000), especially with the awful kit lens. I like shooting outdoor on telephoto (135mm+), and there the phones are nowh

What do you carry around then though? you need a laptop, documents and stuff, might as well put a compact ILC in that bag. No way I’d do that with an (outdated) DSLR though.

Or a Cree SAM, seems like even more exact match.

I’ve only read part of the IJ once and still recognized it. Very peculiar book.

Misread ‘overreliance’ as ‘orwelliance’, what a suitable neologism for such topics!

There are also ToF cameras from Basler, we have their early model, and it works reasonably well, though hot and rather power-hungry. Based on that experience, their current models look promising: https://www.baslerweb.com/en

Didn't know about that, could you point at specific bad parts?

My company uses ZEDs now, and we are planning to use their new models which are weatherproof, and they currently seem to be the only inexpensive option for outdoor sensing that works out of box. And we don't like them: need your own GP

The CVAA book recently got an update. If you are interested in things besides deep learning, it is a balanced and well-written book. http://szeliski.org/Book/

You’d better add more details to the second option to make it fair, there’s a cognitive bias that leads to a more detailed option being more believable.

In such countries you can usually pay a reasonable price (fully known upfront!) to skip the line.

This doesn’t seem to be stopping e.g. American football. Many people would gladly trade 20 years from 60-80 for a chance to live a decent life 20-40.

It seems we do not, not quite. A quick googling got quite a few research papers and prototypes, but nothing mass-produced.

I wonder if it will affect the mail exchange, or only client access?

From a capitalist devil’s advocate point of view: does it really matter that your website works poorly with 90% of the web when these 90% either don’t have any disposable income (there’s got to be a correlation) or are too distant geographi

Very clever, I assume it’s far more difficult to game the system unless you control two bidders.

Well, Teams has problems using my external USB mic on Linux Mint 19.3, when e.g. Zoom has no problems with it. Otherwise no significant bugs using Mint for last 5 years or so both on desktop and laptop.

How’s that really different from MS Access?

Maybe they finally turn their attention to models of manageable complexity and stop trying to create magic with models of enormous size that even in theory benefit only Big Adtech. Even mass surveillance requires rather small models.

Many top universities here are not like self-contained research universities of the West — they mostly deal with education, and research is conducted at non-educational academic institutions. So, for their Masters work, and maybe earlier, s

Procreate is awesome! I don’t even paint but use it often enough for quick sketching of diagrams or simple image editing. I have the Adobe subscription and use Lightroom a lot, but Photoshop feels like a heavy machinery better fit for the P

In Moscow, major Asian companies like Samsung, Huawei, LG all have research centers where they hire some of the best science students from top universities, in particular by organizing joint study programs. This seems to be a widespread pra

From what I can tell, It’s just restructuring, and basically undoing a questionable prior organizational division at that. They have a lot of research centers around the world and don’t seem to slow down their AI efforts at all.

So, even gold bars become just an expensive certificate of some centrally-managed digital money, if it’s being pure gold is not sufficient to have legal purchasing power. No wonder BTC isn’t going away.

Because the hue scale was designed to be perception-based, so flipping by 180 is the intended use. Obviously a single formula cannot describe all complexity of human color perception, especially if you take into account spatial interactions
