I was always curious about its performance. How is the latency compared to alternatives like Parsec, HP Anywhere or NoMachine?

Question for pros: I'm a Python dev who recently started diving into C++, hoping to build plugins for DCCs. However, every time I read these threads, I feel as if I'm on the completely wrong path. Positive views like the OP's

Most countries should study the Brazilian system called Pix. It's faster than Interac, controlled by the central bank and very accessible to its population. https://www.bcb.gov.br/en/financialstability/pix_en

I know nothing about Zig, but this is pretty interesting and looks well designed. Linus was recently very mad when someone suggested a new semantics for overflow: —— I'm still entirely unconvinced. The thing is, wrap-around is not only

Because it creates more problems than it solves. A movie set is expensive and moves fast – and keying is not as big of a problem as they made it out to be. For example, Niko doesn't seem to be aware of the IBK keyer (based on his comme

I'm seeing shots that would be incredibly expensive for some productions - even if we ignore the ones requiring visual effects work. Some of them would need small crews, permits, rentals of expensive equipment, casting, and travel. It&

Looks like Temporal and Prefect had a baby. I hope this gets traction and best luck to the team.

Is there any i3wm alternative that works with Wayland on Nvidia hardware (proprietary drivers)? I tried Sway and Hyprland last month but found neither ready for daily use.

The terminal window from VSCode still gives you all of that, with some extra ergonomics from the GUI. No need to remember ctrl b + % to split a Tmux window, scrolling and find just works, no need to install plugins to save sessions.

If a company train the model from scratch, on its own dataset, could the resulting model be used commercially?

This already happens with chess - despite the machine being superhuman, people have never been more attracted to the human game. Perhaps what will happen is that we will have more time to play/watch more?

The GDPR in Europe doesn’t allow you to use publicly available information without explicit user consent, especially if involves personal data. Even doing some Google Analytics can in theory result in large fines.

I went through this rabbit hole about 2 years ago. I assembled 2 versions of also 34 keys designs, split, low profile keyboards. That helped a lot with my RSI but eventually my thumb got stressed since is constantly requested for the layers

Because most people prefer spend their free time consuming art instead of staring at a wall. You just forgot that art embraces games, music, movies, tv shows, comics, books or even some Youtube.

What would be a good library /tool to auto arrange a complex graph (DAG) like the Blender/Unreal/Houdini node interfaces? I would expect some options to set constraints, like the first input staying always aligned with the pr

Most of the high-end 3D work is rendered on CPU render farms, specially due to how large and complex the scenes are.

Even high-end cameras that can shoot in Log, like the Sony A7 series, apply some noise reduction on their end. This is important for most compressed formats. However, most people would be horrified to see how noisy and unsharp the images fr

I would also love to have an auto layout that considers more than just uncrossing lines. I spent some time trying to find a solution for organizing Nuke node graphs (for VFX) that would follow a few additional rules, but I didn't get v

They are already doing it: most humans are not capable of writing a program to drive a car, be an interesting talking companion, or even remove noise from audio. We still need humans to kickstart the learning process, that’s true, but even

Because it’s easy to shift VFX work to another location. Even a decade ago, VFX studios were popping up almost overnight in Vancouver. All you needed was to rent some space and thin clients. Today we barely need to rent any space.

Ffmpeg is used frequently, but not for masters. The finishing part is done under softwares like Baselight/Resolve/Nucoda, and that's when the color is baked. If a ProRes is required, usually it comes out from them. src: I wor

Netflix acquired one high-end VFX studio recently - Scanline. A lot of the compositing work is edge integration, so this could in theory translates in cost savings on their pipeline. Also, this research is under the supervision of Paul Debe

Actually, checking the paper, they tested that - reducing the shutter speed, realigning nearby frames and adding motion blur. As a vfx compositor, while I’d be OK with this workflow, it doesn’t come without their own issues and artifacts.

Movies are captured with a good amount of motion blur, so this unfortunately doesn’t work.
