    What if you're formatting your own SD cards for Raspberry Pi, and need control over the partition layout, filesystem, etc. Surely there are some best practices that this tool embod…

    The latest Pi OS writes all logs to RAM, which might change your experience.

    I agree 100%

    They decided to use the silicon space for other things. The Pi5 CPU is powerful enough to decode most h264 streams in software. The Pi5 has an h265 hardware decoder.

    You need active cooling if you want to extract all the performance out of it. The standard cooling kits sold by Raspberry Pi are neat and cheap though, so not a problem in my exper…

    Who actually uses multipath?

    It's interesting that the standard "K" (number of elements with a shared scale) is 32. That seems to imply that the neural network will somehow learn to group weights at those 32-e…

    "Modulation can be turned off on alternate scans to identify velocity using unmodulated carrier frequency shift. This allows range and velocity to be found with just one radar set.…

    The short answer is: Yes, you must disable CPU frequency scaling in your BIOS if you're doing this kind of work (i.e. building cryptographic primitives that don't leak information …

    TL;DR: The December 5th experiment was about proving to ourselves and our adversaries that we still understand how to build and validate nuclear weapons, despite the ban on testing…

    It's conceivable that within a year or two, Copilot will be good enough to make the pain of the CMake language much more bearable.

    Apparently it's a known issue: https://github.com/Djdefrag/QualityScaler/issues/21

    Windows Defender says that the binary has Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.H!ml inside it.

    This is an extremely accessible blog post, and very interesting, even if you're not deep into transformers.

    Yes, this would definitely work, so long as the two cameras have sufficient overlap. If you were to use OpenCV's stitching code, then you could run the first few phases of that on …

    I'm convinced after the work I did on panoramas that one shouldn't need to involve user input. Maybe for very strange situations... but generally it shouldn't be necessary. This is…

    I started from the OpenCV stitching_detailed example, and worked from there. That example runs pretty much out of the box on Android.

    A panorama is built by stitching together many images taken from the same viewpoint. The 1st critical thing you need to know, is that the camera may not move. It may only rotate. I…

    Microsoft seems to have discontinued ICE a long time ago. As far as I know, the state of the art in panorama stitching is PTGui. I was working on mobile panorama stitching last yea…

    Nice feature: You can adjust brightness of multiple monitors simultaneously. Every night I set brightness of both monitors to 15, and every morning I raise it back to 30. I've been…

    Thanks! I see the operator is actually explained in an older HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20502032
