I am very curious what you mean by "compartment leakage", and I don't know how to unambiguously interpret "so many family smartphones lying about". Are these smartphones you refer to compromised? Clarification wou

Very nice. One question: as the top-level comment in this thread noted, this algorithm may be specialized to certain kinds of images. Can you release info about the kind of images/datsets this approach will pathologically fail with? Th

The pricing page is where the homepage redirects now, and is the source of the most relevant information. Unfortunately the homepage adjustments for the pricing page have hidden the info about what happened to Feral. That can be found here:

I'm talking about the article title as shown here. If it said "Dropbox accounts created after Oct. 2012 won't have a public folder (2012; 2017)" or perhaps "... (2017)" then readers would be able to go "ok

I agree. I would recommend "(2012, 2017)" to succinctly clarify that this is somehow relevant to right now and that further investigation is needed. Note: I have flagged the parent comment so that it shows up for the moderators (a

Oooooh. Thanks for that information about the Jot. That's remarkably good advertising showing the smartphone on the webpage like that, I have to admit. Regarding the Sync, I suspect it contains the same electronics as the Rip in order

I don't mind it myself, but I kind of can't unsee the fact that it looks like it's dwarfing the tiny screen. Most picture frames have a 1 inch or so bezel, and I guess if I was trying to emulate a physical device I'd wan

Other commentators have mentioned that the display in other devices cannot be read, and from the website it's clear to see the company focuses solely on ChLCD (cholesteric LCD) technology. This would depend on whether the "read fr

Sorry, sure. Emitting colors to terminals is trivial, but ncurses - the dominant text UI library (since the 1980s!) - needs to hold the color information for the "windows" or frames that it maintains for you so that it knows how t

Sad infodrop: the main reason this is a nonevent is because ncurses encodes fg/bg colors in an unsigned int. :(

Huh. I thought controllers were insanely complicated or used proprietary technology. This is interesting to hear! What exactly is temperature compensation? I'm aware that it's a thing, but I haven't yet figured out what it

What's particularly interesting about these displays is that it does seem possible to read the image from the LCD (particularly the Jot 8.5 and the Sync; the others don't explicitly say). I'm trying to figure out whether the

That looks really neat. If you ever decide to make a 2nd version, making the bezel about 500% smaller would look a lot more attractive. Also, the C code you listed was very cute. :3

Oh wow :/ that's quite a shame. On the other hand, this means that the Chinese "photocopying industry" doesn't realize people want (decent!) e-ink readers. Window of opportunity, anybody?
