As a KS backer of Light Table I always get sad about what might have been[1] if they hadn't gone the YC + VC route that basically lead to abandoning LT before it was near ready for daily use for most of us. We never did…
They were not talking about through-hole LEDs in that section as Alps styles switches (Matias is resurrection of the simplified Alps style) cannot have both a through-hole LED and have a tactile or click leaf. They are…
There is little I dislike more than generational labels. It's lazy and reductionist thinking that allows people to arbitrarily draw lines in whatever way they feel will best push their narrative. Quick, 1981/1982[1]…
I'll take "Apocryphal Socrates Quotes" for $500 Alex
Yes, that is the one-line throw away dismissal of the whole affair if you innately believe that everything we do will always devolve to the status quo. I reject this form of behavioral nihilism and prefer to believe…
I find it sad (but not at all surprising) that this is the state of the Bitcoin community. The level of discourse for what is supposed to be a technology that is billed as "liberating money from the whims of…
Great to see a more generic pure-.NET image processing library. When I was doing this 5 years ago we basically had AForge.NET which was focused more on correctness of algorithms than speed. I tried to leverage that, but…
It's not just that, it's also the people who want to trot out "hur hur hur, only uneducated people voted for Trump" I'm just so sick of all the navel gazing going on between the Bernie or Bust'ers, the Establishment…
Could be, but personally I'm done with being silent and just chuckling silently to myself or rolling my eyes when people pull out these infotainment zingers disguised as "insight". The last year has ripped covers off…
> 59million liked all new age sjw stuff That is such an absurd and reductionist dismissal of this election that is no different than the equally wrong people saying "59 million people liked all the old sexist,…
The hardest part of an open source poll would be anonymization. Demographic information in some areas could be enough to come pretty close to uniquely identifying an individual. The rest of it: Likely Voter Models,…
I for one am thankful for Jest and Yarn. I recently switched over to Jest and I love most everything about it and the built in watch with caching reduces friction immensely (now if we can just allow custom preprocessors…
Definitely an Infinity Ergodox, the full hand has the I:C logo on it.
It's much more nuanced than that though. Increasing the evaporation rate also makes exploitation much harder, not to mention that the positive feedback cycle on previously very good edges can take a long time to…
One of the biggest drawbacks with things like ACO (ant colony optimization) are actually more in dynamic environments rather than static ones like these. Pheromone trails tend to reinforce the information from the old…
Excellent. It's a little funny how when you start problems like these you start becoming an expert in fields you never thought you'd have to play in like color spaces, color perception theory, etc. Great work, and I…
On the contrast topic: adaptive thresholding can be very helpful (I believe Bradley Local Thresholding was one I had particular success with) however most of these algorithms work in a grayscale domain which means they…
It's definitely happening on the device. Document recognition like this moved onto the device about 3 years ago, and in fact if they didn't do this device side they would have a harder time dealing with the Mitek…
Having worked with several of the commercial products in this space almost all of them lean on OpenCV for the hard parts, and I'd be surprised if this didn't either.
Worked on this problem exactly 2-3 years ago (developed automated document processing in the accounts receivable and accounts payable sector for a decade plus). It's a fun iceberg problem that looks simple on the…
What you're actually calling for is to completely remove the Senate since what you want is exactly how the House of Representatives is structured. Also due to the fact that the wealth of the nation is centered in many…
"Black people were targeted in 72 percent of thousands of investigative street stops that did not lead to arrests during a recent summer." If that's not racial profiling, I don't know what is.

The cash payout is ~$500 million, and after taxes you may end up with $309 million. So, yeah, probably not a winning strategy.
I spent a decade working with and writing software for LTL freight and 3PL companies on the receivables automation side and all I have to say is I hope these companies are successful. There are tons of opportunities for…
