Do you have coordinates for where splatting is used in Apple Maps? It does seem like an obvious next step towards realistic maps, could be difficult with weather conditions changing during capture. A brute force approach though could be 100

Looks to me like a weird combination; maybe the spat is trained off ripped Apple Maps data? The surface textures all look static like traditional photogrammetry (e.g. no specularity), but there are definite splat artifacts rendered. Actuall

Is this ripped using the retroplasma flyover-reverse-engineering code? The retroplasma repo is a bit behind now and doesn’t work with the updated way Apple serves map data and the heif texture format. I’ve been playing with the same thing t

That’s a good idea, I haven’t used the shortcuts feature. I think this app also abuses the ability to change the app icon to provide subtle animations - but there’s no option to turn it off or customise.

Pretty sure Fifth Star Labs’ Sky Guide iOS icon does this. Not the whole icon, just the stars in it. Hiding the app in a folder helps but I’m looking for a better alternative just because of this.

I would also expect that but that is not what I see. There are the ads at the top of the page which I do expect to be localised, but further down the page I get local results for my (quite small) country which I would not expect to get if I

What does it use? A reason I switched was to stop localisation of searches, and the dropdown at the top of the page used to be great for that but now doesn’t seem to do much. For example if I search “pergola” then I get local pergola provid

Funnily enough they already have that since it was _emailed_ to me.

That’s what luipugs said. An interesting twist on this game might be that spelling is enforced to be non-standard. Here are letters, here’s the meaning, make the word but it must not be spelt right.

I imagine you’re wanting instead something the size of a hat, but smaller fMRI are certainly in development, for example [0] with discussion about the size at [1]. [0] https://med.umn.edu/news/university-minnesota-devel

I’m experiencing the same in New Zealand. In-zone houses for high-performing public schools are more expensive than adjacent houses (I.e. out of zone) by almost exactly the amount of the local private school fees. House price scales with th

I think that is the authors point? The author is asking you to send your intent rather than the non-deterministic outcome.

The market loves it too, MSFT is up 6% this week. There are likely other things that drive this but my hope is that the share price is increasing on the idea that these patches are so disastrous that even Microsoft should be able to see th

TopNotch also solves the problem this app targets I think: the rounded corners are not visible when the menubar is black.
