Show HN: CLI for Orthanc, an open-source DICOM server
A bit more context please. Are you most interested in making something for consumers, businesses, or other developers?
My worry is when this gets used for something forensic.

I imagine this will tend to reproduce things in the dataset, e.g. up-scaling blurry text may look like fonts that it has memorized more than the original. Or upscaling a feather will provide details like the feather of more common birds. Or upscaling blured out numbers will pick some numbers at random [1].

We need to make sure people don't rely on these details, e.g. in courts, HR reviews, when reddit sleuths try and investigate an incident, when someone looks for cheating partners etc.

Kubernetes is incredibly daunting for someone who only used VMs, but after spending some time with it, it's not really that hard. I also unironically run my personal stuff on K8s just because it's familiar to me, and it is also a good exercise for a very useful skill. People complain about the price, but you can easily get a 3-node cluster on GCP for less than $15/month.
Same. In college I would show it off while working at the IT desk by sshing into the computer lab machines and checking on running programs/homework/etc. Used a bluetooth keyboard for the full "hacker-on-the-go" experience

Things like this happen with experimental untested vaccines.
It is sort of. Their argument is that by taking into account the subpixel pattern of the sensor they can actually extract more detail than is readily visible in the picture.

Basically you can imagine that the blue subpixel is always to the top-left of the pixel. If you shifted the blue down and right one half a pixel you would have a more "accurate" production. In this way you can add a new pixel with the blue value closer to the right spot, then interpolate the blue of the original.

Of course you can also do logic such as detecting lines of different lightness and applying those on top.

So yes, especially with their machine learning they are adding new detail, but that is also likely some detail that was already there, but could not be conveyed with with the lower resolution. I wonder how different this would be from the simple approach of realigning the subpixels on a higher-resolution image and interpolating the "missing" subpixels. This approach may look better but wouldn't add any data.
Exactly, I wish they at least had some sort of shade on the back towards the sidewalk that stopped it throwing that much light back on the houses. Do we really need that much light on a one way, residential street?
I guess? I mean it was/is-ish part of my job. I've transitioned to management a while back tho.
Good luck on your kickstarter. Hope you guys achieve your goals and ship this amazing tech!

I tried searching for the term "hogel size" I assume it is somewhat equivalent to resolution. Can you expand on it and tell us what are the limiting factors around resolution and how it can be improved in the future?

I am now curious how commercial sticker size holograms are printed.
"Seeing" is actually about how steady the atmosphere is. The old sodium lights emit in a narrow part of the spectrum which can be mitigated against by using light pollution filters. These allow all light through, except sodium frequencies. Sadly, filters are ineffective against modern LED lighting which emits across a lot of the spectrum.
Uh, yeah.

One of my great grandmothers was in an actual arranged marriage at age 14 to a man who was like 60 years old. She managed to get out of that one, but had to marry another man (my great grandfather, who I never met) to do it.

It was a different world back then, but compressing generations to the point where you are able to know your great grandparents usually requires some creative accounting that wouldn't fly for most people today.
What’s up with these new not-open source licenses?
All of these things have negative externalities that are hard to conceal (except maybe the last one - if you never use your creation you'll be fine and the law is unlikely to catch up with you).

The problem with facial recognition software is that it's very easy to conceal its usage. Businesses can use it secretly and then use parallel construction (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_construction) to explain how they obtained the information that actually originated from facial recognition.
How is this different to Gigapixel AI ?

Fedora and the various *butu derivatives (e.g. Linux Mint) have always been solid. Built multiple computers from parts and slapped em on several different laptops from different vendors -- no issues.

I tried FreeBSD on the desktop and it was sparse and a PITA. I'm sure they can catch up to where Ubuntu was a few years ago, but I'm currently running AAA VR games on Steam on Linux -- no reason to change what I'm running now.
Good thing what he does outside of work isn't any of your business. We should make decisions based on outcomes rather than our assumptions.
>>> real estate prices (though I read these are coming down a bit)

That's not really the case. It's people moving out of SF. The Bay Area (and surrounding suburbs) real estate market is hotter than ever. Just had a friend move there and finding a place to buy is basically you willing to bid over asking price.
Never mind the manipulations which can occur even before the shutter is ever pressed— I'm having troubling finding links now, but I know there was controversy a few years ago about a picture of bombing rubble with an object (a dress form or something, maybe?) standing up in the middle of it, apparently by chance which created a very artistic contrast, but there were later questions about whether the photographer had in fact arranged the object in that way rather than discovering and capturing a preexisting scene.

EDIT: Still can't find it, but here's a list which includes a number of other wartime photos which are proven or suspected to have been staged in various ways: https://militaryhistorynow.com/2015/09/25/famous-fakes-10-ce...
A great misinterpretation of the photography is that it's an objective medium. Any combination of lenses and film stocks (or equivalent) is going to represent but a flat, skewed representation of the three-dimensional world; it's been interpreted before anyone performs any processing, computational or analog.

Susan Sontag's "On Photography" is a great read on this topic for anyone marginally interested in not just photography, but art in general.

Damn it. I only remembered "Andromeda", but you're right, that isn't where the story takes place. Same goes for "Sirens of Titan"

Post title is wrong, there's nothing about hyperinflation in that story. His bubble tweets have been about bitcoin and Tesla.
Did you try KeePassXC? It's much more actively developed and runs circles around the original KeePass:

­— it's a native application (starts instantly on less powerful machines)

— can check your accounts against haveibeenpwnd.com database

— has full browser integration which works flawlessly IME

— can store SSH keys and work as an SSH agent

https://keepassxc.org/

edit: it does not support synchronization, I misremembered. Sorry.
I pay for results, not "productivity."

I'd much rather have an employee work on personal things first then come in refreshed vs burning out and never recharging because I'm demanding their peak "productive" hours.

Every employee I've had that has medium or larger scale hobby outside of work (both in and out of domain) has been a better hire than those who don't. They attack problems differently, they're better organized, and have never complained about burnout.

However, teams that have had a string of mandatory meetings in the AM are measurably less productive in my experience. I think there's something to this.
> "More accurate" is not real / Which is it?

We'd be trying to draw a curve (a band limited audio signal is a smooth curve, although I guess in the very degenerate case that it's completely silent that curve is also a perfectly flat line), on a display made of rectangular pixels, so, that is always going to be an approximation, but that's really neither here nor there.

> Can we show them the input signal that generated the data easily? If so, great. Let us do that.

Yes, this is very easy to do, in the video you say you've shared many times it shows this (among many other things) because it isn't hard, unless your idea of a fast computer is a 20MHz 80386 or something, in which case, yeah, that's not easy and maybe isn't worth your time.

Or what they have chosen to do now (lollipop graph) is also fine, if you zoom into the lollipop graph on your 44.1kHz recording of a Mariah Carey vocal it's still fine, it only starts to get a bit confusing (making the smooth curve valuable to see what's actually happening) at really high frequencies say, 15-20kHz.
Yeah, doubling IOPS/TB is just the theoretical limit. But dual-actuator drives will still be a much bigger performance improvement than NCQ was.
Why is there war in the first place?

Also, it is a created trolley car problem not the trolley car problem. And creating such a situation instead of coming across it is definitely morally evil.

A key quote from the second of those is this:

Madsen har tidligere forklart at det er to nivåer å undersøke bivirkninger på: Gruppebasert, og individbasert. Ifølge Madsen det ikke er noe som tyder på at AstraZeneca-vaksinen er forbundet med en større risiko for blodpropp i statistikken – men det de undersøker, er om det kan finnes bivirkninger som er spesielle og rammer få personer.

My translation:

Madsen has earlier explained that there are two levels of investigation regarding side effects: group based and individual. Accoeding to Madsen there is nothing to indicate that the AstraZeneca vaccine is associated with a greater risk of blood clots in the statistics - but what they are investigating is whether there are side effects that are special and affect few people.
We've had a good experience at Eureka Surveys (also bootstrapped) hiring an offshore support team to support our 1M+ users.
I think what was being said is the fact an app uses Electron rather than being native can diminish UX. I think it was clear enough from the post, at least from context.

I'm actually a bit confused by 'the same UX across OSes'. What does this mean? The mobile UI is completely different to the desktop apps and web app.
With the official Bitwarden repos, this is solved by having reputable teams periodically run security audits. Sadly, it's unlikely this Rust implementation will be audited any time soon.
I agree with you, but I would rephrase it.

As a C++-lander, I find it surprising that object allocation is tied to the object's type. IMO, the boxed/unboxed axis should be orthogonal to the type itself. It should be a property of the object instance, not of the object's type.
You have to use the Adobe CC removal tool. Done that about 4 times this last year. Real PITA.

Apps can't even reliably sync data on Android without using a special Google-hosted remote service that pings your phone when there is an update. Music apps have to register specially so they don't get killed in the background.
I'd skip RAID altogether with these and use a RAIN approach with multiple lightweight nodes with one drive each.
No, you are confusing "wallet" with "address". A wallet is little more than a seed for an RNG and a log of transactions. Every new transaction starts with a source address and results in two destination addresses: the primary destination (payee) address and the address where the remainder of the source balance goes. You definitely want to maintain control of your change, so your wallet uses the seed to deterministically generate a keypair for a new address and that is where your change gets sent.

I've got no interest in digging into their methodology, but feel pretty comfortable assuming that they've grossly misrepresented all of the above as "accounts".
Pixelmator Pro (happy customer here) has great superresolution without all the cloud subscription baggage. I think it’s fair to make comparisons, which I will leave to those who have CC subscriptions, but anyone doing so should realize that Adobe is being compared to a moving target as outside options and even DIY options are only getting better.

Yes we’re not talking about accuracy here, just perceived resolution, no need to hammer on that.
Pindrop Buys Next Caller(YC W2014)
Thanks! The hogel size is physically determined by things like the aperture size (in our case 1x1mm to start, with a stretch goal for 0.5x0.5mm), but also laser power, and just how long it takes to print each hogel and as a result the full hologram. Double the resolution is 4X the number of hogels.
To be fair:

• Corbyn has been an MP for Islington South since 1983

• Thornberry is MP for Islington North since 2005

• Margaret Hodge was on Islington council for 21 years

So I would say it's somewhat unfair to accuse it of being a stereotypical choice for them. They live(d) amongst their electorate.
These days I see no point in installing services on a VPS directly, other than docker + docker-compose. You could do it in one image with the reverse proxy + static files, or break it out into two images (this is helpful if you run more services on the VPS).

As for updates, caddy v1 used to support pulling in from git, but I don't think that got ported to v2. So what I do is build+push a docker image, and have a cron job on my vps to pull+restart my website's container.

My preferences go Traefik > Caddy > Nginx, but traefik definitely has a bit of a learning curve.

When one GM does it, yes, amusing.

But when both repeat to perform a Grandmaster draw they're kind of destroying the value to spectators, as in any other sport the fans
would revolt if both teams were so willing to not put up a struggle.

Some tournaments have had restrictions and incentives against this
at least e.g. you won't get invited back if you have too many
GM draws, or the game has to have a reasonable length and the
arbiter won't allow such a draw, or they reset the pieces and make
you start over if you draw too soon...
Do it the right way even if you think there was no Sales/income etc. You don't want to mess with the IRS because they can fine you for stupid things and it can increase paperwork later on.

Either do it yourself or get a CPA to do it who may charge you a couple hundred bucks max.
Its $70M to post "first!" Maybe scam isn't the right word but its certainly strange to me.
it's is difficult to watch everyone. Even with algorithms, I don't think it's possible.

It's already happening. The Chicago Police Department doesn't have to have 70,000 people watching its 70,000 cameras. It just has several dozen. The computer decides if something looks (or sounds — some have microphones) suspicious, then routes that video feed to a human to look at.

The problem is that we train our computers with "AI" (a word we should stop using) that has biases.
Python on iOS is still a joke compared to what you can do on phones like Librem 5 or PinePhone, or even several other devices via distros like postmarketOS.
What's the problem? Other for-profit entities are getting material value from importing Wikipedia content at no cost. I'm not opposed to a for-profit vs nonprofit/personal distinction where for-profit clients that redistribute Wikipedia content have to pay a small license fee. If that results in Wikipedia paying their contributors something for accepted article contributions I'd be even more for it.
Plus AFAIK much of the IBD Analysts' time is spent on preparing the PowerPoint presentations that higher ups present to clients. It seems to function like a form of hazing.
That would require changes to the client as well, however, and as I understand it bitwarden_rs still uses the standard client-side Bitwarden addon/applications/apps.

Ask HN: What are your favorite companies with a special spark or spirit?
I'm looking to shed light on businesses that have a special spark or spirit, something that makes you admire them. For me, this usually means:

- Have bold/unpopular opinions of how to do things
- Explicitly _don't_ aspire to making zillions of dollars as the main goal
- Have strong principles, possibly at the expense of business opportunity
- Seem fun/real/irreverent, not just biz-bots

In my network/bubble (which is VC-backed startups / FAANG), I just don't see a lot of this. Tell me HN, what am I missing?

I can demonstrate to someone that the Earth is round, but it'll never convince a Flat Earther.

Said skeptics have been repeatedly debunked, here and elsewhere. There's more to it than merely being right.

As an example, a sitting US Senator used "it snowed in winter" to "debunk" the idea of climate change. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2015/02/26/ji...
that's an interesting question.

If you traveled one light year at the speed of light, when you looked back you would see light from right after you left. But since you were traveling at the speed of light, your relativistic time for the journey would be zero.

So the light you observed would be proportional to your subjective time.
This sounds like the same approach as Gigapixel AI from Topaz Labs.

I haven't tried Gigapixel but I have used Topaz' Video Enhance AI, which is phenomenal. I've been using it to upscale old TV shows which never got an HD remaster, to UHD.

Right now it's running through the first episode of Firefly, converting from 540p to 2160p (540p as the bluray rip was basically upscaled to 1080p from its original production, so I converted to 540p first in Handbrake with zero noticeable loss in quality since I used a near-lossless compression factor.. this provides better upscaling):

https://i.imgur.com/hcRYM5n.jpg

When it's done I'll run it through Flowframes for framerate interpolation. Then maybe another pass in Handbrake to figure out an optimal size for the end file.

Then I'll run through the rest of the season using the same settings I tested with this first episode.

I wonder, though, if the rubber can be more rugged as a result.

Materials/chemistry is so far out of my wheelhouse, I can't even imagine what that might be. But I'd imagine there might be a way to optimize the synthetic rubber for handling friction against the road surface while not having to optimize it for handling pneumatic pressure.

Unfortunately, I suspect that the things done to make the tire survive road friction better also make it grip the road worse. And that there's likely not a chemical formula that one can apply which wouldn't work equally well under a pressurized tire... but hey, most things are evolution, not revolution, anyway, right?
Another fun one is Jamtli [1] (Jämtlands läns folkhistoriska museet) in Östersund, which holds a museum and about ten acres of grounds with historical reconstructions of Swedish homes, farms, and businesses from roughly the 18th c. to the present day. Since 1986, actors have moved into the historical buildings every summer and recreated how people lived, worked and spoke in the past. [2] It's similar to colonial Williamsburg in the US but not focused on one particular point in time -- great fun!
