Article and especially the title are of pretty low quality.
Assuming the voxels are surface voxels, how is it even theoretically possible to turn 1 million pixels into 100 million voxels? This means you get 100x the xy resolution AND depth information out of this process. I'm sceptical of that claim.

As crusso already mentioned lenses and scanning are essential parts of image capture, a lens being needed to direct the light to the sensor somehow and scanning to actually read out the image.
"Using diffuse foils to replace microlens arrays" would probably be a more fitting and still teasing headline. Or "Diffuse foils can replace microlens arrays for 3D imaging", perhaps.

Article aide, the research seems very sound and very cool. It demonstrates another case of extracting high quality information from low quality sensors - something I think we'll be seeing a lot more of.
Another previously precisely manufactured piece of hardware is being replaced by a software-supported low-quality part through optimizations that in their spirit remind me of the Google Pixel's camera and that drone that can fly (steer) with one rotor.
Doing this violates the instructions above, which say "one post per company please."

So much of engineering is very different in zero-G. I want humanity to spread among the stars, so I want us to be able to construct habitats on planemos and smaller bodies. I don't see space stations as important in the long run; even interstellar spaceships would likely operate under continuous acceleration so involve little zero-G engineering.
I am surprised that make would be slower than append! What's the explanation?
Influential, perhaps; Accurate, not that much.

>The sentence itself implies libre, not being patent-encumbered

Nope. It is used as an adverb, for which the dominant meaning is 'without cost'.

And you know this. You are just here spinning. I love libre software, but when you abuse language to make a political point it disgusts me just as much when I hear the words 'pro-life' or 'job-creators'.

If you want to claim you continuously confuse 'free' as as an adverb for patent free gnu stuff you are either an idiot or disingenuous

Recently graduated with Masters in Data Analytics, looking for an entry level analyst role or data scientist role to apply the skills I've developed through the masters program.
After a decade of large systems relying on RDBMs, we now use 64-bit integers for all primary keys with a global Hi/Lo id generation system (app reserves a range of numbers on startup to assign to records automatically).

This means plenty of ID space, maintains rough numeric ordering, allows ID creation without a roundtrip for every insert, is easily portable across different databases, and produces unique IDs for every row in the database which greatly simplifies everything from caching to replication.
Whereas if you can't be brought down for corruption, you will get promoted because you can pay your way off?

China's policy is fairly sane. Nobody except for the inner circle of the party can take anything for granted. If you bribe somebody for advancement, if caught, both you and the person you bribe get brought down and punished. Probably a jail sentence, confiscation of any property that you might possibly have gotten through dishonest means, and in severe enough cases, death.
Without the diffuser, the only information you have is roughly "a light ray hit the sensor at location (x, y)". You can't derive from that information what direction the photon hit the sensor from.

This technique gives you "a light ray hit the sensor at locations (x1, y1) through (xn, yn)". You can deconvolve that list to get an approximate vector the ray hit the diffuser at.

Obviously there's a lot of calculation involved to apply this deconvolution over the entire image at once, but it's the same thing light field cameras have been doing for a while. The innovative bit here is working with a random diffuser, rather than a very precise lens configuration.
I'm getting both with the same antenna. Both meters have Itron brand transmitters.
Can you imagine if the feds prosecuted every idiot who made a death threat online? They have criteria for identifying particularly egregious cases worthy of prosecution. One of the criteria, mandated by the Supreme Court of the United States, is that the threat must be credible and specific. That's gonna be impossible to prove for online trolls mouthing off.

When people play the “I’m getting death threats” card, put on your skeptic’s hat and realize that every person who arouses any controversy gets death threats online. It’s awful but it’s inevitable. Ask yourself if they’re just trying to deflect from whatever controversial thing they did in the first place.

Nice project.

What is annoying, is that it'll sit at a price (USD 2.12 currently) and it'll flash red/green rapidly, with the up/down arrow changing etc - but the value doesn't change. I'm guessing this is due to you only showing to two decimal places, but it'd be worth thinking of a way to deal with that IMO.
An "infection" in this case would be the execution of some other person's code on my computer.
Browsers have been designed specifically to do this since Javascript was invented.

The only difference between malware and "regular-ware" is whether the code meets certain user expectations about what it will and will not do.
How many arrests have happened because of CP posted on, say, Facebook? Or on Reddit? Is there any proof that CP is more likely to be posted on the 4chan imageboard than anywhere else on the Internet? Do you think the owners of 4chan somehow encourage the posting of CP?
To anyone wondering why they should care about Stimulus, I offer this TLDR, straight from DHH himself:

"Above all, it’s a toolkit for small teams who want to compete on fidelity and reach with much larger teams using more laborious, mainstream approaches."

Give it a whirl, I'm sure you'll find it delightful. But if you're looking for the next Big Thing™, I'm afraid you might be sorely disappointed.

SEEKING WORK Remote

(I'm based in Baltimore. Very limited availability through Q2 but I'm posting this anyway because it helps to plan in advance.)

I help B2B tech companies exceed their growth goals.

My mission is to help the leaders of world-changing companies achieve their mission faster, smarter, and beyond anyone’s expectation.

Everything I do serves that mission: Whether it’s helping AT&T bring new IoT solutions to market, turning Domino Data Lab into a market leader, or accelerating the growth and revenue for Clubhouse, Crew, Etleap, Inkling, Netlify, Scalyr, Singular, and many other B2B tech companies.

Founders, CEOs, CMOs, VPs, and even VCs partner with me because:

1. They understand that growth comes from action, not talk. They rely on me not just to provide guidance but to execute—to make decisions, implement systems, lead teams, push code, talk to users, launch campaigns, analyze data, and do whatever else it takes to get results.

2. They want to get the right skills and insights on their side. Having worked with dozens of B2B tech companies—from seed-funded startups to the world’s largest telecom company—and having tested hundreds of strategies, tactics, and tools, I know what works, what doesn’t, and how to do things right.

It is in the same boat as Ruby was with Rails. One could argue that Rails made Ruby popular but mostly popular as a "web language". Phoenix is a great web framework but Elixir can do so much more by taking advantage of the OTP. I've used Elixir to get up and running with back end services that process data. Using OTP features such as GenStage it becomes easy to handle data as a pipeline. That said, most people who will move to Elixir will probably only use it with web dev and Phoenix.
I imagine fewer people would make death threats if they started prosecuting more people.

I think the big benefit here (and most of Rich Harris's projects) is less "will this be the next big thing?" as it is pushing the client-side app world forward with new ideas and questioning status quo. Rich balances these "wild ideas" with solving practical problems and I'm always impressed.

> Isn't that why the 401k and MediCare/MedicAid exist?

Well, that doesn't provide you with emotional support and caring, just material goods.

Even if all your needs are provided for, if you're all alone in that nobody wants to speak to you or see you except one or twice a year, you're still alone and isolated.

In addition, 401k is a plan you pay into, and you get taxed one way or another. Some employers match, but besides for that, you're on your own.
It's just as possible to post CP on any other web forum that allows images to be uploaded. Uploading illegal content has always been a rule on 4chan and has always lead to a rapid ban and report, attempting to pin 4chan as being complicit in spreading CP is a baseless smear.
Edited: Added link

Fining them is a way, I agree with you on that. But it's far from the best way.

The paper you provided[0] also goes on to talk about the future actions of an offender who has been caught in the act previously.

> It should be noted that being caught cheating in the past does not necessarily provide an accurate measure of high perception of being caught cheating in the future.

I'll concede to cherry picking for my arguments, but even anecdotally, cheaters will cheat, cost is an afterthought. People negatively affected (caught cheating and fined) will only remember the part about being fined. From their perspective, the organisation has just exploited them more, and you have just bred more resentment for your organisation within this community.

Fixed that for you.

I love space much as the next guy, but i dont see why the government has to spend considerable sums for it. The only purpose for space is science, either aplicable to science in general or to the military, but im sure its not cost-efficient for all the science there is to be made.

So if people love the space, they should pay for the things they want to be done out there. No reason for Nasa to not crowdfund or SpaceX to get private money to build something. The people that want to go to space or get space stuff get what they pay for, and the people that dont, dont.

I dont find it reasonable to think someone making very little money has to pay taxes that somehow fund Elon Musk's journey to Mars.
There's also my favorite, Asciio https://metacpan.org/pod/App::Asciio

It allows saving the object format for later modification or export as pure ascii text, as needed. And it works on all platforms that support Perl (a lot).
My job is pretty awesome. But I had to get a PhD first, something that in my experience is risky for students' mental health. I don't recommend it to people unless they show a high tolerance for repeated failure (aka "research").

As for your question: NP-hardness refers to the worst-case performance, not the average case. Many individual instances of NP-hard problems are solvable. Stochastic algorithms do quite well, and protein folding in nature is a kind of stochastic algorithm (classically we would call it simulated annealing, although really it is quantum annealing). So as far as we know, there's nothing nature is doing to solve NP-hard problems faster than known algorithms. But it does do quantum annealing very fast, something we would really like to exploit using quantum computers.

For more like this - the intersection between computability and nature - I HIGHLY recommend Scott Aaronson's "Quantum Computing Since Democritus".
