Star Walk 2 is a good choice on android.

In my opinion, any game featuring large-scale, realistic terrain would benefit from a tool like this. You simply can't hand-craft every ridge on a mountain range at that scale. Unless you're recreating a real-world location using satellite and LIDAR height data, procedural filters are the only way to achieve that level of geological detail efficiently.

It’s fascinating to see the bridge between academic research and industry application here. While Image Matting is a massive research area in Computer Vision, academia often focuses on solving perfect 'benchmarks.' Corridor Crew effectively took that foundational research, like neural unmixing and synthetic training, and adapted it to solve the 'messy' reality of production, like tracking markers and motion blur. It’s a great example of using open-source deep learning resources to build a tool that prioritized workflow over just a high accuracy score.

LLM can translate in the style you want them to. You can make them translate more creatively or just translate word by word. I even think you can make them explain their choice of translation and help you proof-read the result.

> FB App is 114MB in size, but loading this page in Chrome will use a good 450MB, idk how they managed that.

This reminds me of the old days when I check who's using my PC memory every now and then.

Have you tried rimless glasses? I don't think you need eye sight correction for your peripheral vision.

The console is on the TV side and I usually just charge my controllers on the sofa side. That way I can charge and play at the same time if I want to.

There's no way to do it traditionally. Your request would need the algorithm to understand the content of the image. Deep learning based image vectorization probably has a similar objective.

Until I saw your reply I had thought this post is about OpenAI lol.

First year in collage is probably a rare case. Everyone is in a new environment and everyone's social group is quite limited. They probably know that they're Anna's only social connnection at the campus so the effort can be worthwhile.

> Most of this was uncovered by simply asking ChatGPT directly.

Is the result reliable and not just hallucination? Why would ChatGPT know how itself works and why would it be fed with these kind of learning material?

I checked has-ansi. What's the reason that this library would exist and be popular? Most of the work is done by the library it imports, ansi-regex and then it just return ansi-regex.test(string), yet it has 5% of the weekly downloads of ansi-regex. ansi-regex also has fewer than 10 lines of code.

I don't know anything about the npm ecosystem, what's the benefit of importing these libraries compared to including these code in the project?

I don't think "simple" here means lack of functions. It means more intuitive and simpler code, and easier curve of learning. And to me f-string is very simple.

Yeah. I tried to google what's Platonic solid and each face of a platonic solid has to be identical.
