    I understand and agree with your sentiment, but just don't buy the uni-tasker type lego. They make plenty of sets where most if not all of the parts are general and can be used for…

    I’m up voting because I want to hear this side of the argument. I guess your point is that most people’s experience isn’t that bad, and they owe their parents. Sure, so it can just…

    Threadrippers are not really 'workstation' CPUs, they are HEDT CPUs. More Apples-to-Apples would be to compare to EPYC CPUs.

    tried this outside of QGIS? pip install rasterio, etc. We heavily use GDAL/rasterio/numpy at work with no real problems.

    Google's 3D models are based on aerial imagery, which is higher resolution, and suffers from much less atmospheric interference.

    Ha, Dr. Blecher's webpage on HN! That's great. I did my PhD in math, in large part because I enjoyed his class on advanced linear algebra so much, and later on real and functional …

    really cool. It looks pretty close to the ideas behind seismic imaging. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_seismology

    I generally agree with your sentiment. I think there's an important distinction to add. By and large, people don't fully expect their mobile devices to be general purpose computing…

    I find it really depressing that the only business model that seems to work online is ads. Paying for things by ads is so convoluted and distorting. There should really be a open m…

    I find it odd that there's no universal system for blocking calls from specific numbers. I'm guessing you could implement a spam filter, so Harassment/telemarketing wouldn't be a p…

    Does anyone know why they don't use more modern directional representation systems, like curvelets, or shearlets? My understanding is that they provide optimally sparse representat…

    Do you honestly believe that the people advocating alternative plans (low carb, etc) don't understand this argument? Why just keep on repeating it?

    Wouldn't this violate the dmca? If it's not something people can get with minimal effort, then millions of people are not going to use it. The ad-blocking plugins are so successful…
