If the point is to easily reconstruct geometry, then mimicking humans should mean using 3D imagery (same object seen from two eyes) to get a better idea of its shape. Wonder if that might some day become part of best practice in computer vi

It appears this is based on that cssselect library mentioned above, compiling CSS selectors to XPath. That is, performance should approximate XPath, while convenience should be higher.

What I find interesting about their sample data sets is the Social Graph one, which uses a model of data that afaik only the Chinese government would have access to: tying everything to a person's identity including where they've

Dunno if it's just me, but I read these Vue articles and all I see is a bunch of hypocrites with an identity crisis, criticizing React for fragmentation, Angular for having 'one Right Way'. So they're better than React f

Idris language encourages type-driven development, and can make guesses about holes in your program based on the types. I expect (and hope) we'll be seeing more of that in programming in the future. It's not a silver bullet, but s

I tried typing functional programming library Ramda using TS, and got frustrated it still had some limitations (e.g. needing overload codegen in lieu of variadic support). I tried finding what TS can do now, and figured out type-level tuple

I'm reading the Idris book now, and one cool thing there is guessing bits of implementation based on the type declarations (there written before implementation). I imagine in a visual environment, being able to make useful suggestions

I'd be interested to ask, since this project identifies as distinguishing itself in terms of performance, would you have any benchmarks on how it fits in with some of its peers? I saw it also supports both row-oriented and columnar mod

Would be interested to see this as well. Looks like TPC-DS would a big benchmark in SQL, though apparently aimed toward transaction processing... maybe more relevant when they add update/delete then.

I'm interpreting this as saying they want to use the same representation to use in memory (for querying) and for 'serialization' (sending the same thing over the wire). This begs the question why separate serialized represent

Uses BLAS but no mention of cuBLAS to speed things up? Does that mean the linear algebra wasn't big enough a component to merit optimizing on?

Yeah, it could be done using the ADODB interface on data in the workbook itself rather than from some actual DB. See this link for an example: http://stackoverflow.com/a/26678696/1502035 That being said, when I en

Right, makes sense, I'll try and check out what's available then. :) By writing to the model, you mean programmatically adding new measures or the like? My interest is in programmatically querying models using DAX, though to this
