I'm working on this[1], my theory is the lack of a good IDE (rather than simple crowdsourcing interface) is the reason why it hasn't been done. Imagine if github had an integrated ide for editing large datasets. Also see dolt whic

IANAL but it's not illegal to communicate with an OFAC-sanctioned entity, but rather to have business dealings with them. If you look at the case history usually companies like Paypal are fined for facilitating a transaction to an enti

The author is Russian and has numerous seemingly popular github repositories. They question Github's decision to ban their account without giving them any reasoning and illustrates how the open source community has lost a lot of value

You can load tens of thousands of images into the web app at a time. Unfortunately after 100,000 I start to see performance issues- especially with collaboration. I'd like to fix this in the future- but with a web application these lim

Absolutely, will add some larger/easier to use datasets. There is a button to import cat images in "Samples -> Import -> Import Cat Images" which you may find interesting for testing Computer Vision stuff

for sure- a couple seconds saved per sample will amount to many hours of saved time even for a small dataset. I created an issue to track interest in keyboard shortcuts, but I've heard this feedback from the friends I had beta-test so

there are several good reasons to isolate and deprecate 1) web technologies change frequently, junk is accumulated over time if new tooling and updated dependencies aren't adopted- this is more effective in deprecation 2) iteration spe

Mechanical Turk doesn't have built-in quality assurance so unless you're very skilled in QA systems or have a lot of money to burn on validation it's going to give poor results. Btw it's relatively hard to build a QA sy

My first thought: The author would probably be equally satisfied if they had used JavaScript with flowtype and react. It sounds like they're comparing JQuery + Bootstrap (and similar "old" frontend frameworks) to Elm. I think

Detecting a similar script should prevent the proxying from working, but if the script is bundled into the main JS of the site (as many sites do now) it would be basically impossible to stop w/o blocking JS altogether. Not sure if brow

As I understand it, coinhive uses Monero, a crytocurrency that is hard to mine on GPUs. From coinhive.com: Monero is different. To mine Monero, you have to calculate hashes with an algorithm called Cryptonight. This algorithm is very compu
