Nice idea! What did you use for your hotel dataset source? I've been wanting to work on travel based app idea with hotel integration, but seems like most providers (like booking.com) lock down their data.
> What did you use for your hotel dataset source Do you hear that noise? It sounds like something is scraping
It can be hard to find a pub with a pool table these days!
I wonder how good Gpt and Claude could do it. What would be the computational cost difference?
Besides, in this case, we would also have to upload 40 million photos to the cloud for Google to evaluate what’s on them.
YOLO is the best for such tasks; it works locally and is really fast.
Did you do anything to retrain the model, or just use it out of the box?

Hanlon's Razor I think there's a simpler explanation: most people don't do work when they go to hotels, they do the work like you are discussing. Doesn't mean they are intentionally being hostile to remote workers. One thing I've realized about the world is that a lot of people do things just because others are. "Momentum is a bitch." I will bet you very few people are thinking this way, at least very few that make d…
I’m not sure how what I said could be interpreted as suggesting they are hostile to remote workers. And I think there’s a very good chance hotels would not benefit from this. Maybe in a tech center, but that’s a tiny fraction of hotels. Good office chairs are designed to be very adjustable, but they do tend to break when people twist one thing too far the wrong way because they don’t know how it works, and it would p…
Working and sleeping in the same room is actually not that great for you most the time.
IMHO There is a huge gap for affordable hotels for normadic workers and business people. Hotel rooms suck when you need to use them for work. Typically there are massive beds and I travel alone if for work. There is no proper chair, no writing table at all or one too small, and the sockets tend to be in the wrong corner of the room. If I was an entrepreneur outside of software looking for a gap, I might have invented…

Not really, businessmen/women usually need their stuff ironed.
And they are ironing their stuff on their own in their hotel room? Isn’t there a service for that?

I usually stand at the ironing board (they're typically height adjustable). Keyboard goes on board, laptop goes on trashcan which is on board (just to get the screen higher). I usually bring some paracord so I can tie the whole contraption to something heavy so it doesn't wobble. Sometimes I'll use the cord to hang a second travel monitor from some nearby art--still working on a proper harness for it. It's fun. I occ…
lol, sounds janky but fun. Would like to see a picture. I'm surprised ironing boards are so readily available.
