two is one and one is none

If I'm not mistaken, the algorithms (and their names) usually come directly from the literature. ie: to understand them, you could read books on AI / computer vision, or look up th…

This, for me (in Canada). I now regularly throughout the day check several facebook groups related to my various hobbies. For example a group where serious cyclists from my area ar…

Nothing happens for me where I press enter either, I have to click on the search icon (firefox on linux).

> I'd rather be poor today than rich twenty years ago. This makes it sound like rich people 20 years ago had it pretty bad... What did technology add to their lives aside from conv…

It says in the readme he uses wxPython (wxWidgets). You could also use Qt as I believe both use native Cocoa underneath. You can't do everything that is possible if you were coding…

The link on the website should work now: http://ring.cx/en/documentation/mac-osx-installation

Should be fixed now.

The home page[0] seems to suggest that there are also audio and video capable clients... are they still in development, or is there something functional already? [0] - https://tox.…

Both iOS and Android now have pretty good accessibility features for the blind. I think iOS is still slightly ahead though. Basically the phone reads out the button or action when …

git is not a website...

The protests are not about the deal with the EU or Russia. The protests are against the current corrupt government in general and its brutal response to the initially peaceful prot…

Yes, you can add to the dictionary.

I went from using SwiftKey to Minuum. I would say SwiftKey has better prediction, at least for predicting the next word. Minuum isn't very good right now at predicting the next wor…

Which smartwatch is this?

Dunno, but my MBA ran cs:go way better than my linux box with a dedicated (low end but new) ati card can run cs:source. I'm sure it's a driver issue, but point is that macs current…
