There's still such thing as physically correct image reconstruction, i.e. removing technical limitations via computational means. Super-resolution, focus stacking, HDR (proper one, without fake colors), highlight color preservation (tr

It's exactly about rising the performance of current inexpensive APS-C cameras to the level of professional full-frame models. As an amateur photographer I'd never take with me a mammoth gear that is some Canon 5D mk3 w/ 70-2

> they capture much more information with their larger sensor sizes Most modern cameras are around 24 MPx irrespective of sensor size, this one is 3x12=36 MPx which is about the same total information content (or even less) given these 2

DSLR manufacturers already have compact mirrorless to catch up with. Now only if the mirrorless moguls would recognize the potential of ehnancing their comparatively giant APS-C sensors with at least half the computational photography wits

The reply like this is what I was hoping for! BTW, the actual forum thread (linked at your link) seems to exist only in the Google cache at [0], or am I missing something? [0] https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=

I've figured as much about performance, somehow while working with video I rarely reach for C++ lately, the firm realtime nature of sound makes performance harder than video even though the bitrate is orders of magnitude lower. Thanks

Maybe somebody has a recommendation on a similar article, but on programming sound? Somehow there's much less material on working with sound (especially low-level details about low-latency realtime sound effects) than on working with

As I understand, it's only about removing the Win logo from the button, which is long due on officially Linux-supporting laptops.

definitely this. When looking for a good photo, you look basically with one eye and with a set frame, deliberately turning off the 3D immersive experience. I've learned this trick after countless very bad images of very beautiful thing

Do you really want to be part of such circles then? Especially if you clearly state that it's an illustration, not a picture report made by yourself. For a long time I've shared the same view that all the good pictures have been p

Well, since I've had some strange graphics issues with Chromium on my Linux Mint that wouldn't fix with chromium reinstall, I've tried Firefox and it was consistently more reliable, no reason to use anything Chrome. But I&#x2

They even have a comprehensive line of dog tracking products, best in (surprisingly underrepresented) class. It is sad they've decided to augment them with electric shock correction features, which modern k9 science strongly discourage

Russia also has regulations forbidding the honking within cities except for signaling immediate danger, and it seems to work well, somebody would honk for no good reason sometimes, but the fellow drivers wouldn't approve of it. The lac

Now that's a good idea. Just adjust the required loudness level to be the same as max(inside of average car right next to you, open street 10m from you), otherwise the extremely low sound could disorient you.

This was probably dust on the sensor, or the back element of the lens at least.

Compiling and running your team's code could be the most powerful excercise to stay connected with the engineering part. Way too often I would discover that some functionality declared as 'done' cannot be demonstrated in any

That's a big can of worms. This dual employment may have its drawbacks (I think mostly due to the fact that this is a mega-corp; for a small bootstrapped company it's only good, I think), but consider the following two topics: * P

As a person working like 40% academy, 60% industry, I'd say it is in reverse: you get to 'spy' on industry's knowledge and practice and transplant it into academic setting, where it is very likely publishable.

Offtopic, but: why would business actually pay for business class?

Then why flying business class if you care about that sort of cost? I've heard horror stories about economy class in USA, but I've flown 9h flights European-level economy and that's quite bearable (though not so pleasant) exp

And that richest person a century ago is totally irrelevant in most conversations about wealth except as a counterexample that economics is not zero-sum.

That's an interesting comment. It made me think about having two different kinds of wealth: wealth enabling things and wealth freeing from problems. If you can do fancy things with careful planning, that's one thing. Doing fancy t

Actually they don't. I use Linux Mint Cinnamon for 5 years and find it a very convenient operating system, better than Windows (at least 7 — I hear nothing good about Win7 except its Linux support) and OSX (at least Snow Leopard) in al

How do I get my favorite app included as a user? As a publisher? The maintainer has his own schedule. What if I have a closed-source app? I presume it's just better than PPA and *.deb-s (which would be acceptable if all desktop Linux w

Very distinctive pattern for Moscow — basically it's a very centralized city with ~15 major radial roads, which segment circular roads into separate streets. It's interesting that the most similar histogram is for Rome, which has

If it is similar to "Бабье лето" [Babyie leto] in Russian, it is quite literally 'Old Women' Summer'. Didn't know it has anything to do with spiders though.

It's also very popular in Italy (SAILA Lquirizia Purissima — very powerful stuff!), so definitely not the Northern thing.

With GC/MS you can test for composition, but not for biological effects. And I'm not sure about the GC/MS being cheaper either.

99%¹ of computer vision problems are 80% solved. The problem is, you need 95+% solution to be practically useful. Binocular stereo vision has just approached general applicability, and SfM is mostly used in very constrained environments (tr
