HRT does not help with scarring or issues caused by scarring. Lots of other things sure, but not scarring, which is what the article claims is the problem.

Its mostly a question of pr I think. More highly trained troops are less likely to die or mess up, and that is bad pr. So we train them more, but if that training also causes deaths, which becomes bad pr, we will train them less. Younger le

The only usable EMPs we have are nuclear weapons. So if you are willing to use one, then just detonate it a bit closer to the surface and it will work just as well against everything we have.

You say that suicide hotlines are more for the friends of people at risk, than the people at risk, as if it is a bad thing. We as a society generally dont know how to help people who consider suicide for its myriad of causes. We do know how

A .45 gunshot feels like a sound, and with hearing protections at a few meters you hear it but cant feel it in the slightest. You feel it in your hand but not further. Artillery is more similar to how it feels standing next to gigantic spea

My bet is on a high threshold. There is no evidence for this at all in small arms enthusiasts.

If this is accurate there is likely very little to be done, and the solution will likely be to have less training and retire a decade sooner.

If I understood it right, its firing artillery, not rifles. Even then I doubt cavitation, but not shock echos at density borders tearing he tissues at the border.

The bash code which creates the c file which gets the list of null terminated files in a directory and compiles it, and runs it, is easier to write and understand. Bash is a lousy language to do anything in, python is almost always availabl

Yes. The higher derivates are useful in many cases, both as sought properties and observations. The invariances implied by relativity,(the trivial notion that the universe behaves the same regardless of where you select the center), mean th

Why bother with giving words for something which is longer than their mathemathical definition? The word can be unknown, but if the function is unknown the word is useless?

But all of them are based on courses that define nth derivative, and the notion of continuous vs non continuous functions. What is the value of giving them names instead of just using nth derivative?

What value is gained from using these terms over just saying nth derivative?

Will do

It would be amazing. Willing test subjects and the competitions to actually tell if we are making improvements.

This is correct. They were calibrated in advance.

Very few know the old methods. Few were trained, and deep learning started working just 5 years after classics got good and easy enough that a few people could use it for a product. So there was never the needed wave of non deep learning ba

Fair enough, it is very hard to be worse than opencv in terms of user friendlyness, so even if it did nothing more than improve that, its better.

If you have say a 1Mpixel image which has been rectified, then a human will generally say that it looks correct if the calibration errors are less than 10 pixels. Perhaps as little as 5 if they know what they should look for and are careful

Well, its good that it works, but its intended for correcting for hardware defects, not hardware engineer defects.

I do not think there is an off the shelf solution aside from e.g. arkit. In general a good starting point for such a problem would be to implement https://grail.cs.washington.edu/rome/ on your own. Its not particularil

Looking through the comments People are confusing the lens models, with the nl estimator used, with the framework for calibrating cameras. There is no such thing as the OPENCV lens model. There is such a thing as the brown lense model as i

Nonsense. Opencv has been used widely for outdoor localisation too, in particular since it is much easier to do outdoor than indoor. Such algorithms always create a graph over the images, but if you mean the graphslam graph filter methods,

For you to say that you would have needed the image res 2MPixel, but ignoring that, it should have been a paper I knew about if true. So I checked. mrcal is providing the same lens models as opencv, and it looks like its using opencv to do

Also always do calibration in good light conditions.

The corner detection is bad. Not sure why. I also think its gotten worse since 3.5. I know the corner detection refinement is worse than the raw detections, so turn that shit off. Yeah thats a common problem if the calibration failed. It

Sounds like a paper, link?

Camera calibration is almost always underestimated and a source of both failure and algorithm degradation. Shit in, shit out. Keep the model simple, but actually understand it. Make sure its observable. Visualize and verify.
