Not sure if this was your implication - but this is not capable of identifying people in terms of putting a name to a face. Just identifying where there is a face.

Thanks for qualifying more. I'm surprised you didn't mention having humans in the video as a point - since that's pretty much what we're best at detecting fakes. I believe the technology already is at a point for us to d

Even if they saw the same spectrum - if they have more cones, their sight won't be RGB-based, and so an RGB screen would look kinda posterized (eg the famous Obama 'HOPE' poster)

Why would it not work? It's just that you need enough people to vote :) I do believe in this case it's not going to work - I don't imagine among gamers there will be a nearly enough boycotters.

It's similar in many places in Europe, where you see houses laid out like this: http://c8.alamy.com/comp/F56ABW/old-and-narrow-houses-in-str... Your property size, and subsequent taxes were decided based on h

Congrats on the gains! Though of course you are just an anecdote. But I'm curious how much of this muscle mass loss is due to biological changes vs lifestyle changes.

I think it's self-relevant advice. If your tendencies are to constantly read about launching your business - that may get in the way of actually going in and doing it. This advice isn't relevant to those who have the opposite prob

Very cool! I'm always interested by clever uses of perception technology. I wonder if this can be combined with video magnification[1] to remove some of the noise? [1] ( http://people.csail.mit.edu/mrub/vidmag/

I meant in the context of sharing links, either on a board like this or in a text. But that does bring a up a good point of how many users know how to copy/paste? Among all internet users, I would conservatively assume 30%+ do. Among p

For what it's worth, that answer is now 8 years old - I'm curious if this has changed since then.

I like that movability is a feature (at least for the chair, sofa didn't mention that?) But it does seem very very expensive.

For the size mattress it was designed for, I assume. EDIT: I'm a fool, and sofas aren't beds.

Truthfully - I wouldn't call it spaghetti code. I think of spaghetti code as way to many abstractions (AbstractEntityFactoryFactory). This code has the opposite problem - needing more abstractions - which is the easier direction to mov
