[Tutorial] Install OpenCV 2.31 on Ubuntu 11.10 and configure QtCreator
Installing OpenCV in Ubuntu and using it inside the QtCreator IDE.
I hope it comes across in the preamble that I've been using F# (the only functional programming language I've ever tried out) for just a few days and as such I simply don't know which is which yet.

Anybody who's read this blog post and is interested enough to look further into functional programming should (a) download LINQPad and play around with the interactive F# tutorial and (b) start reading things by people with a few years of functional programming experience under their belt, not a few days.
"If someone knowledgeable in the field were to come in and try to correct this nonsense, what exactly would they cite? Academic journals? Because information on animal husbandry is a frequent subject of academic debate. Newspapers and magazines? Surely a smash hit topic there."

I don't get your point. Of course there are academic journals on animal husbandry, as well as trade magazines and textbooks. Why would their be any difficulty finding material to cite on animal husbandry?

> "Nearly every bullshit job requires a BS degree, they employer just want to make the company staff looks "better educated". These "hot" majors are not really teaching any knowledge, but an easy way to grab a degree, so the students can gain their entry to various job titles. The college make lots of money by expanding cheap majors. But the students learns too few to start a serious career, so in a competitive job markets these students have much higher failure rate than similar harder majors."

The pose estimation you're referring to is not the same a raw depth map. Also, when creating that they had limited data (they used actors and some graphics techniques). For the just the raw depth there is now practically unlimited data available (millions of kinect boxes everywhere). No hand labelling of data needs to be done, it's what the kinect outputs 30 times or more per second.
That could be true but I think that very few people really have that talent. Most people have only one or two good ideas and those come from observing something in a domain that they are in. That's why pg gives the advice to work on something you know about because no doubt he has observed the relative success rate of people who work on things inside and outside of their domains. I think there may be a few people who do have the talent to find problems outside of their immediate domain but I also think that like any 'talent' its probably something you could learn and develop by observing those people, how they think, what they do etc.
You are so loyal
I also agree.

I started a proposal for Wiley publishing a long time ago on caching and networking for high performance web sites. Then I became employed by a company that forbade me from sharing (grrr) so I stopped.

I felt when writing the proposal though, that the solution isn't just client, just network, just server, or just anything... it's the combination of all parts and knowing how a change in one place impacts another part and how to balance them all to achieve the goal.

Even then, it's a stepped thing. A solution for a small but fast and resilient web site looks very different to a solution for a very large, distributed and fast web site.

A book should really include the basics building blocks in all major areas, and then offer suggestions on how to apply those building blocks at different levels of scale.
So can anyone use the Kinect for commercial applications now, or is this just about Microsoft helping 10 startups? If it's the latter, it's barely newsworthy, and it shows how hard it is for Microsoft to imagine losing even a bit of control on their products and what you do with them.
Intercepter-NG New Sniffing Tool

This sounds suspiciously close to "dot.com CEOs don't need to know about software, they just need to hire programmers." It's a tricky idea because, in one very technical sense, it's actually true. The larger and more important truth it conceals is that a software company managed by someone who understands software is a completely different beast from a software company managed by an accountant. One of many obvious differences is that a CEO who isn't a programmer will have a very hard time evaluating the relative merits of potential hires (either front-line hires in a small organization, or technical leaders in a larger one).

New technologies that are actually important as competitive advantages, and not yet widely distributed, aren't like little packets of soup mix one can throw into a meal. In practice you can't say "Oh, I read about nonlinear discombobulation transducers in Wired and now I'm going to tell my engineers to use them". By the time the knowledge is nugget-ized enough to be in a Wired article it's already way behind current research.

The job of a CEO of a "hard tech" company is primarily to make choices about investing in new technologies and applying them in products. Does it really seem reasonable that someone who is merely "aware of" Professor X developing idea Y can make optimal decisions about those investments and applications? Is it plausible that Intel would be what it is today without Gordon Moore and Robert Noyce's knowledge of semiconductor physics?

No, the Deletion Review page is for requesting that the debate about a deleted page get re-opened, that is, it's exactly the page you want.

Dexter Season 6 Episode 9
Indeed. I am trying to involve a former colleague of mine who is a specialist in front-end development and optimization to complete what knowledge i have on this front.

I have been actually thinking about asking HN or other about what they would like to see in this kind of book (keep in mind this is very PHP oriented as it's my specialty), instead of trying to come up with one myself and missing some important point.

I am also thinking into recycling presentation i was hosting at internal IT gathering, on very wide subject range (internal working of PHP and how to take advantage of that knowledge, Varnish usage, HTML5 video, How to profile a PHP application with XHProf and what to look for), and make video presentation out of them. Or may be just bundling this in the book, not really sure yet.

and it shows how hard it is for Microsoft to imagine losing even a bit of control on their products and what you do with them.

Historically, Microsoft trying to exert control over how exactly their product is used has not been a problem anyone has had.

If anything, one could argue that their product's quality (perceived and real) has been diminished by giving 3rd party developers too much freedom to run amok.

The licensing situation with the various SDKs used for the Kinect is complicated. This effectively prevents many kind of commercial applications at the moment. (I've done a commercial UI prototype using the Kinect, so I've researched this a bit.)

There are two high-level SDKs that you can use to build Kinect applications relatively easily. The first is OpenNI+NITE by PrimeSense, the company that designed the sensor used in the Kinect. The other is Microsoft's own Kinect SDK which is based on C#.

Both of these have very restrictive licenses. If you're not a hobbyist or an academic, there's no clear path to acquiring a license that would allow you to deploy applications. I imagine PrimeSense is happy to license their toolkit, but I have no idea about the price -- I'd imagine it's not cheap. The Microsoft SDK is going to be available for commercial licensing next year, but the terms are not known yet (AFAIK).

There is a third option for building Kinect applications, and this is the one I chose for my software. Instead of using the high-level SDKs, you can access the raw depth camera data from the sensor using a free driver. The data is quite clean because the Kinect does a lot of processing internally, so all you need to do is build the high-level interface -- i.e. interpreting the depth data to detect people and gestures, or whatever it is that your app needs to do. This way, the resulting app is not tied to the PrimeSense or Microsoft SDKs.

The statement was not intended to be rude and I'm sorry you took it this way, it was merely intended to be factual: you seem unhappy with javascript's core syntactic elements, you should use something else because they're not going to be changed.

> Look, I know JS likes to do things in ugly ways.

Uh... ok, whatever.

> But by the time you say the word "just" you're being ignorant.

Ignorant of what, of you trying to work around javascript's syntax in javascript for debatable reasons of personal aesthetics? No, I think I got that now, I was originally mistaken indeed in that I thought you were looking for an improvement to the language, not "fixing" an irrelevant syntactic pet peeve.

I've noticed that decide.com is pretty bad at being able to tell the difference between model variations, bundles and special editions. For example, if you were in the market for an Xbox 360 this weekend you'd see just about every retailer offering limited quantities of the 360 + kinect for $199 which is $100 less than the normal price. Decide can't tell the difference between the 360 + kinect and a Modern Warfare Special Edition Model. It rates the Modern Warfare Special Edition as the better buy as it's "a newer model." Sure it's newer, but they are not comparable items. There are lots of examples of this if you spend any time on the site.
There are actually companies in Germany using Kinects for controlling in the production industry, As far as I know they use exactly the low-level driver (libfreenect).
There is already internet censorship in Australia: http://www.news.com.au/technology/internet-filter/telstra-op... Even though they say it's voluntary, it's just ISPs adopting it. It's not voluntary for the users. I even quit.

Now the government only has to give subsidies to ISPs that do 'voluntarily block content' with a "$9.8 million scheme". Much like UK's censorship regime.

I'm sorry, it's already happening.

I actually think high performance web architecture could make for an excellent mind-broadening course. Consider the things you need a deep understanding of:

- DNS, how it works, DNS level load balancing, DNS client implementations in operating systems

- Internet routing architecture and CDNs

- Browser internals: how modern browsers access the network, how their parsers work, how they parallelise requests

- In-depth understanding of both JavaScript and the DOM

- How CSS style engines work

- Different image file formats

- How compression works

- How to introspect and monitor web page performance

- How to reverse-engineer complex web sites

Yep, I'm now skeptical about Stanford quality...
It is only insofar as issues are recorded as tasks to be completed that week. Adding a task to Scrumy means that we're making a commitment to work on it within that week. Some things carry over into the next week, but we don't allow it to become a rolling backlog. So I think it's unfair to call it an issue tracker.
You can also get away with doing just "$var", though, which is the problem. We encountered a strange bug the other day where having a string containing "$3" meant it never appeared on the page after (with it being converted to null).
Failed for me.

Using Emails to Build Links
I don't see this as useful. Using USB drives to share pictures with friends was never popular, and with social networking is utterly dead. Sharing of larger files is already marginalized by the likes of dropbox and upload sites, and becoming more so over time.

USB flash drives aren't used for everything anymore. I don't know anyone who regularly uses one and would find it acceptable for the only thing holding 3/4 of the drive to their person to be the static friction of one USB plug, which is the only thing holding one of these combo drives together. If you're using a flash drive for a file today, chances are the file is too essential or too sensitive to depend on one of those plugs never coming undone, over a multi-year daily use lifespan.

Well, historically speaking, I can't think of a product that has been quite so community-driven as the Kinect. I don't think anything has "escaped their grasp" in quite the same way.

To give a counter-example, while it's been a while since I was involved in Windows development, I do remember an instance where a developer released a unit testing plugin that happened to be compatible with VS Express, and was forced to withdraw it at Microsoft's insistence. There was no quality issue there (not that I recall, anyway), it was purely a market segmentation and control ploy to ensure that anyone who wanted "serious" functionality had to buy VS Pro.

Why is there so much content on Haskell coming out of Microsoft Research? I've seen multiple Haskell papers out of them and I think they're the initial developers on cloud haskell as well?

Does MS have any technology related to Haskell at all? Or is it just research for the sake of it?

Spring is just one of the ways to implement a RESTful service with Java. That being said, as long as you're using a framework and not writing everything yourself (which I imagine is not the case), this type of implementation should be familiar. If however you're outside of the web/REST context, then yes, the code may look odd. So the audience should be developers working on a RESTful architecture with Java and Spring.
Thanks for the interesting feedback.

I love Wikipedia, both the idea behind it and the site it's self, and have contributed plenty of time and cash over the years. However I have to agree that the processes have become far too labyrinthine and unfriendly for the uninitiated.

We (the existing Wikipedia community) need to have a rethink of how we lay out our rules and guides and the process for navigating them, we also need to start being a smidge more consistent about how we enforce the rules.

Mostly though, we need to be a little more tolerant of the N00Bs. I get it's tricky, you're busy, hundred things at once and some muppet comes in asking the same question we've been asked 16million times before; it's easy to be a bit terse, but if we want Wikipedia to continue to succeed we need to take a deep breath in those moments and remember to that person, at that moment, we are Wikipedia. A bad impression that turns them away from the site means they're unlikely to ever come back and that's the last thing we want.

I get why everyone's being defensive, and yes, the article was written in a very combative style, but we also need to face up to it landing a few fair points, lets take those and get working on that instead of wasting time rowing about who's in the right.

How can we clarify the deletion process for someone looking from the outside in? How can we make it clearer who to contact in those sort of circumstances? Is there any way we can make talking to people easier?
