OK, I definitively get it proprietary software, however how does this apply in the following context:

* the submitted work is quite old (first commit was in 2011, although there has been some activity in 2019 and 2020);

* the submitted work was not already published on HN, and given that it is from around 2011 with a few releases since then, and that it wasn't yet submitted on HN, I don't think I took any "credit" from the authors which might have subsequently submitted it themselves; (because they would have submitted it in the interim if they wanted to;) (moreover I clearly disclaimed it in the comment immediately after publishing it;)

* the submitted work is quite useful and not well popularized; (I sought for such a tool a few months ago, but failed to find it;)

* the submitted work is open source, thus by definition anyone can fork it, modify a single line of code, and now he is one of the authors;

Basically I'm asking: how should one submit software that wasn't developed by themselves, but which ultimately is useful and can be tried by anyone.

Should I submit it as a link? I thought that plain links are mainly for "writings", and that "Show HN" is mainly for software.

> Some animals seem to be able to process things on a screen while others seem to totally ignore it

In my experience, it's more about the particular individual of animal rather than broadly "all eels can see screens", at least that's what I experience with my dogs. One of them ignore screens and seemingly can't see / don't want to see what's on the screen, even if prompted to look at it. The other one watches TV with me, as soon as I'm watching something. And if there is something appearing on the screen resembling an animal, she tries to scare them away with barks. Humans on TV is fine, and she follows them, but birds, dogs or any other animal is an enemy according to her. Even animated animals are recognized as animals for her, unless they are too abstract.

Watching BoJack Horseman was an interesting experience, to see where she would react vs not. Seems most animals/humans in that show are fine, unless they are really behaving like animals, then it's not fine.

Halo was originally intended as a Mac release, and Steve was livid[1] when Microsoft bought Bungie and made it an Xbox exclusive. I think his apathy toward the games business probably grew from experiences like that, if not that one specifically.

Valora Digital | Fullstack Senior & Mid-level | Full-time | Zurich, Switzerland | ONSITE or REMOTE (CET +- 2h)

Valora Digital is the newly founded digital unit of Valora, a European retailer with 2700 stores across 5 countries. We are tackling interesting challenges in areas such as Autonomous Stores (think Amazon Go), Ecommerce & Delivery, Loyalty, Payments and Process Improvement. For this purpose we are building up a development team from the ground up. You will be one of the first engineers and will have a big part in shaping the culture as well as choosing our stack. We are looking to bring the startup ethos to the corporate world and get to combine the best of both worlds: ample funding, a huge customer base to deploy to and lots of freedom. I'm the head of this new unit and was previously a founder, CTO and CEO.

"The reason our grant was renewed for five years is because our work is so important in helping prevent pandemics,” Daszak told Science...

But in 5+ years of funding, they specifically did not contribute to the prevention of any pandemic, and the worst pandemic in a century started right under their noses. Given this, and the fact that most of the money goes to Chinese researchers on efforts that the Chinese should be paying for on their own, makes this a natural choice.

The assertion is that computation of phenomena like flow and radiation could result in fundamentally more accurate computations. Minor variations in surface shape and texture can have a large impact on physical interactions. Getting the geometry right could make a big difference. Given that this is a rigorous attempts to advance the state of the art it should be possible to demonstrate this improvement with computations, but with the current state of this project any experimental exercises will have to wait until after SIGGRAPH or whenever this is released as usable software. It seems unlikely that anyone will try to jump ahead of this project using what they have published so far.

This only demonstrates that people with high status in academia can admit ignorance and get a good result. I can speculate that the author would get very different results if he professed ignorance at his first job--I think coworkers who followed "fake it til you make it" would get promoted faster.
I still don't see why Gemini couldn't use a small subset of HTTP itself. HTTP is really great, just a little too complicated with all the extra RFC adding stuff to it (cookies, CORS)... if you ignore all that and remove a few of the fancy things in HTTP/1.1 (as defined in RFC-7230), like content-negotiation, you get pretty much what Gemini wants, no?

Pick any of those. Given a problem, there is a minimal complexity to the programs that solve it. You can always raise the complexity, but not reduce it.
Yeah, but I don't generally sit down and drink 3 cokes in one sitting. Alcohol is a great money maker because there's a large standard deviation to how many drinks a given person might order.

No one likes to be conned or make up for someone else's mistakes, that stings a lot more than just paying a few dollars more. I've noticed a vaguer version of that train of thought in my own head more than once.

I am indeed worried about restaurants short-term, because they are one business difficult to run under the current hygene rules. Many restaurants here in Germany have switched to offer take-away food, so while drastically down, their business is not going away completely. And of course, the market isn't going away. As soon as restaurants can operate mostly normal again, the demand will be back, if not even much higher at least initially, because everyone is missing eating out at the moment.

So the question is more, can the restaurants survive the time in between? And this is not a question of margin, it is a question of fixed costs. The employee costs are quite reduced, as they are fired or on temporary leave. Here in Germany, the salaries are covered to large parts by the government and public insurance in times where there is not enough work for a business as a whole. This leaves the rent for the restaurant as the big cost factor and the rent is also the biggest cost factor which makes restaurants struggle in normal times. Which also kills all attempts an raising the margin as described in the article. And this isn't limited to restaurants only, the true reason small shops are disappearing isn't only online purchase, it is the real estate costs which keep rising until the shops and restaurants are operating at minimal margin. This is where in this crisis and going forward, the survival of restaurants and businesses is decided.

For the restaurants themselves, a lot can and should be improved to raise their margins. First of all, many restaurants are badly run. It is easy to cook and serve a burger, it is an entirely different challenge to run the business so that you make a profit. This is why some restaurants are in a constant struggle while others are hugely profitable. And of course, as with any lasting business, you have to put money aside in good times to survive bad times.

The post doesn't talk about beverages. At least here in Europe, the places often are just making even at the food while earning a lot with beverages. Especially as in the evenings, people don't leave the restaurant so quickly after the food has been eaten, but stay for some more drinks and conversation. This is why I always order a drink even when being out for lunch. When they serve me a glass of water for 2-3€, that is basically their profit.

But all of that goes to nothing, if all the profit is absorbed by the real estate costs. Short term, the landlords will have to waive quite a large part of their rent, or they are going to find out that a bankrupt restaurant pays no rent at all. Long term, the communities have to work at keeping costs reasonable.

"Crowded food truck clusters are super annoying to me." This tells me that there is indeed a market for food trucks. If this annoys you, then nothing is stopping you from shopping somewhere else. :) The alternative would be to get real estate close to these clusters and open up a "real" and high quality restaurant. Though my guess is, in these clusters, people are busy, they're not looking to sit down, and just want a snack while on the move to some other point of interest. I see these kinds of trucks in tourist-heavy areas, or in shopping areas, so that should give you a clue. The patrons are only looking for a quick snack, and not a Michelin star experience.

I think you may have boiled the problem down to its essence. Search for Japanese vs. US zoning laws to see the two extremes. European countries tend to be somewhere in the middle. Same pattern can be observed with restaurant sizes and their variety.

If you want to investigate free software options then may I suggest you look into Visual SFM (http://ccwu.me/vsfm/) or AliceVision MeshRoom (https://alicevision.org/). I haven't used MicMac, might be good as well.

I tried several years cheap approaches as you requested with no luck. Then I upscaled my gear.

I've used Agisoft's Metashape with great success (https://www.agisoft.com/). The cheaper license offers really good functionality as is.

DICE has published a pretty good intro into how to use it to capture photogrammetry data in https://www.ea.com/frostbite/news/photogrammetry-and-star-wa....

You do want to have a good camera for good results. My Mavic Pro's (a drone) 12 MP is barely tolerable. With Sony Alpha 6000 (24MP) and good lens, the results are fantastic. Camera phone can work, depending on the capabilities of the camera, but I would use photography and not video material - the images from photography seem to be better quality than frames extracted from video (YMMV).

If you have the patience to collect the image material, the results can be really good.

For example, as a hobby I've been collecting photogrammetry models from an office building being built near my home:

https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/hatsina-20200426-bdd04329548...

So what you see there is the model as presented by Sketchfab. The textures and model are coming from Agisoft Metashape, Sketchfab is just used as a platform to display the model for public viewing.

The data closer to ground is captured by my Sony Alpha 6000 while the data from above is from drone. I'm happy with the portions of model based on 24MP DSRL images but the drone based material does loook "melted" occasionally.

As a reference, the source data for that model was roughly 800 images.

The data the photogrammetry algorithms consume are coming from the pixel data. More pixels, the better the outcome. Roughly, the resolution and precision you can expect from the result mesh is equivalent to the pixel density of your source material. The algorithms don't invent anything that they can't see in the pictures. This means, that for example for columns you need to take 360 of tens of images around each column to make them appear ok in the model.
You are right it depends on the specific use case.

It possible to use `xargs -L 1` to trim the separators, but then you would also add `findutils` as deps.

I just wanted to point out that keeping the dependencies of scripts in mind when programming is also important.
> how have you approached similar projects before? Where there's a very non-Clojure-native library that will be critical?

Started playing around with Arcadia which is Clojure-CLR + Unity3D tooling/library. Basically used for make some interactions with the Unity3D framework easier.

While most of the code is using interop, having the repl flow is something that for me, after using Clojure professionally for a while, is really really hard to give up. I've tried getting into game development before, but the slow iteration cycles on "make change -> save -> do thing to test" just sucks all the fun out of it.

If I were to use Three.js in a project, I'd approach it the same way. As I try to stay far away from any other languages, I'd write a small layer between my CLJS code and the Three.js API, the smaller the better, and then use that.

Because giving up on being able to eval whatever and having access to a repl is not worth it in the projects I work with.

Basically, any hurdle (like basing my project around a non-CLJS library) is easier to overcome than having to deal with something like TypeScript again.

Her writing that restaurants should raise prices and another restaurant owner reading it and deciding that's a good idea doesn't constitute price fixings, as there is no agreement or dialogue in place. She's merely putting out information that is being read and acted upon by someone else. For it to be price fixing, her and the other restaurant owner would need to mutually come to some agreement to both raise prices.

When I am out in larger groups, the number of drinks varies little with what was ordered, be it beer, alcohol-free beer or other beverages. This is one medium to large sized glass of beverage for a lunch and several in the evening. Coke might be an exception, but it is very rare, that someone orders coke in a restaurant. Usually you have fruit juices of many variations, often as a "Schorle", that is fruit juice mixed with sparkling water. Or just water. And the prices differ only little between a glass of beer and of juice.

One particularly mnemonic collection of switches is 'plane':

perl -plane 'my $script'

which iterates over all files given on the command-line (or stdin) and

+ (p)rints every processed line back out
+ deals with (l)ine endings, in and out
+ (a)utosplits every line into @F

I am aware that -n and -p are mutually exclusive, but as -p overrides -n, it's seems simpler to just keep 'plane' in mind and remove the 'p' if necessary.
