How come you always have to install some version of pytorch or tensor flow to run these ml models? When I'm only doing inference shouldn't there be easier ways of doing that, with automatic hardware selection etc. Why aren't

Like others have said, pup seems to be abandoned. It's surprising that there isn't a well supported standard tool to work with html in the terminal, like jq for json. Last time I looked at using pup or similar I wanted to extract

When I switched from Google music to Spotify (not entirely by choice), one of the things I really liked about Spotify was the folders. I like the idea of being able to make playlists in a folder and either listen to a specific list, or all

Polestar 5 won't be available for years. They just released Polestar 3, and that won't be delivered for a year, so the 5 is maybe three years away. The Porsche Taycan Turbo S is the obvious competitor to Model S Plaid, or maybe Au

Are there any libraries that allow me to write different versions of the same function (AVX-512, AVX2, SSE, etc) and then automatically choose the best one that the system supports at runtime? Or maybe even better, the compiler generates mu

Google hosted the Google decimeter challenge, which used post processing of data from dual band phones to try and get as good accuracy as possible. The top submissions got an accuracy of just over one meter. I have a phone with dual band GN

This type of "car" is quite popular in Sweden. You might think that such a cheap "toy car" would be for people with low income, but they're quite popular among teenagers younger than 18 (age limit for car driving li

I've seen references to merging models together to be able to generate new kinds of imagery or styles, how does that work? I think you use Dreambooth to make specialized models, and I think I got an idea about how that basically assign

That's strange, it works flawlessly on my 2018 phone, although that has a Snapdragon 845 which was considered the fastest SoC available for Android phones at the time. How is the Google Maps, OsmAnd, or Mapbox experience on your phone?

by sorenjan 4y ago
OsmAnd uses offline vector tiles as standard, they support multiple different styles including custom ones. It performs fine on my phone, and it shows off many of the benefits with vector data. It's easy to choose which kind of point o

Nice! Only on Hacker news can you make a comment about some kind of hypothetical programming project and have the reply be "Yes, I've made one of those already". Do you think it's still too early to switch to vector map

Couldn't you take this into consideration in the vector renderer? A lot of roads and paths in OSM have width and surface tags, you could render that using some appropriate texture on high zoom levels instead of the usual dotted lines f

Seems like MapTiler is maintaining an open source full stack vector alternative, and OpenLayers[0] looks good as well, so maybe it's time for legacy libraries to add vector support, or for users to switch libraries? There's even b

by sorenjan 4y ago
How come these map projects still use raster tiles? Are there no open source map projects that render the OSM data to vector data, and renders that vector data on the clients GPU? Maybe raster tiles are better at something I'm missing,

But part of the problem is that for almost every demographic air travel is not only a big part of each person's total emission budget, it's increasing over time. You're probably flying more than your parents did, and your chi

Do you happen to fly a lot, and thereby might have a personal reason to not want flying to be as bad as reported?

The winners in 2021 sang Italian metal, the winners in 2022 sang Ukranian rap and folk music. I unfortunately think it's inevitable to get more bland and optimized contributions, but the last winners have shown that the audience likes
