The big gotcha for Vue2 was the performance when you wanted to display a list of like 10,000 things. I like to tinker with data and a lot of my day is spent on an sql prompt inside of emacs watching results sets of 1,000 rows or 50 columns

In my admittedly limited experience in image hashing, typically you extract some basic feature and transform the image before hashing (eg darkest corner in the upper left or look for verticals/horizontals and align). You also take mult

I think that's what these people are doing at Project Final Fantasy 6. I haven't delved into the details but the screen shots look just like Octopath Traveler.

Are the stakes really lower? A simple brake job gone wrong can literally kill people. I can't remember the last time I miscalculated profit/loss for a client where the result was a fiery death.

Claims of "there are too few good programmers" tend to have an implicit "...at the price we wish to pay...".

you need an ABS( ) in there no or else the negative sign gets counted? Also some languages will write really big numbers or really small numbers in engineering notation (eg 10,000,000 becomes 10e6) but that's typically only for floatin

The income that is paid to you derives it’s value from the stability of the backing gov’t. I don’t think money is as “yours” as you think it is. Gov’t is already involved whether you like it not.

I play lots of blues guitar, I am familiar. That chart is basing it off the C minor scale which would correspond to the Eb major diatonic scale. If you play an Am blues scale which is, you'll see how the blue note is really just one no

You're missing anything that uses notes outside of a typical diatonic scale. Example: The first 2 notes of the popular piano piece Fur Elise. It uses an Eb. The piece is in A-minor/C-major and Eb isn't in that scale. That pie

Kodak isn’t the best example since they made a digital camera back in the 70’s and sat on the tech!

I end up doing exactly the same thing though I start with the intent of starting a project. What usually happens is there is no particular algo or technique I wanted to explore and once I do that I lose interest and feel bad about never fin

What is the video fingerprinting method used? Is it a publicly known algo? I was using a combination of "dhash" for individual frames and "simhash" to generate shingles for a bunch of videos and it worked "ok"

That's a good comparison I haven't thought of before!

No information can be conveyed by the wavefront and so nothing is actually moving than the speed of light. What you diagrammed is called the Lighthouse Paradox: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighthouse_paradox There

One of the reasons why I sometimes don't like the term "tech debt" is because you can take it on without knowing it. This is not true for financial debt. When you borrow money, even if you're not tracking it, the lender

Consider their response an input signal and not necessarily instruction from them. If my little niece comes crying saying there is a monster under her bed, of course I know it's not a monster but I'll still go look. Maybe a toy is

It's the risk and uncertainty that changes everything. It's not just the mobility that changes. I have to take care of a sick family member and often times have to spend multiple days/nights in the ER/hospital. My curren

Have you ever been ill for long periods or had to care for parents, siblings or other loved ones being ill? Many people do. Of course they can choose not to care for anyone and leave but many times other people come into the picture when ma

I've combined hand held bracketed shots. There are problems at the edges of things due to slight shifts in location and parallax but this can be handled in photoshop and HDR (I used to use Photomatix) does a good job at removing ghosti

Why not a single exposure? My camera (Nikon D750) shows up as having 14 stops of DR on DxOMark and IRRC a typical monitor in ambient condition is 8-9 stops. I haven't tested any of this though. Any in-camera JPG processing is applying

The compounds are often super complicated though. We can run fancy wines, bourbons and Coca Cola through a mass spectrometer and see exactly what's in it... but we can't currently just create those things. I would assume something

This was my reaction to Flash. It's not a "real" programming environment is what everyone told me. Yea but it was a great authoring tool for non hard-core programmers. I helped a designer write a few simple puzzle games in Fl

Rolex used to replace all worn parts in their movements as part of their servicing at no extra charge. Do they still do this? If so, then I would push off the service as long as possible. If you wear out a bunch of parts after 20 years they

What if a developer's machine was somehow compromised and the bad version of the file was put into the actual repo or deploy? I have no idea how likely this is or if it is a possibility in NewEgg's environment but that would be a

Do you really have to actually service them at 5 year intervals? I have Seiko SKX with a 7S26 movement that still people routinely say it goes 10+ years without a service. When you do, it's about $100 since the movement is so common an

I don't use Netbeans and to some extent IDEA just because the fonts don't look right. Tons of work went into the font rendering of Windows and OSX/macOS. Java apps that use the Java font rendering bypass all that work look

I for one, would love a little chart that shows the power spectrum as well as a black line representing ideal black body output next to the CRI rating. I'm sure a graphic designer can make this prettier (and I think we only care to sho

Plain-jane Eclipse works better for me than IDEA for my hobby Java coding. On my late 2015 Mac, Eclipse much snappier and the font-rendering is better. IDAE takes 3+ mins to launch. Eclipse takes 20s on a cold launch. To be fair I am not us

That's a great page! I only recently started learning about black body radiation namely due to investigating lighting for my house and photography lighting.
