Loranubi··on AI Photo Geolocation
I uploaded a drone shot of New Taipei City and it gave me Taipei. Close enough. I don’t know if it was cheating though because the image had exif gps coords embedded…

The site worked fine on Firefox on iOS.

Loranubi··on Fischertechnik
It’s an awesome toy. It makes much more advanced constructions possible than Lego Technic for example.
Loranubi··on Windows 11 24H2 no longer runs on processors without SSE4.2
Windows 11 (the UI/shell at least) is so unbearably slow that nobody would want to run it on older devices anyway.
Loranubi··on Could a video game developer win the Nobel Prize for Literature?
All of them deserve one
Loranubi··on Rule-based NLP system beats LLM for analysis of psychiatric clinical notes
Cost of building is higher. Cost of data processing probably much lower.
Loranubi··on Scientists rename genes to stop Microsoft Excel from misreading them as dates (2020)
Not in this case. Excel makes it extra hard for you to do correctly. They encourage the wrong way.

You should clarify that Python is strongly typed as well.
Loranubi··on Segmenting comic book frames
Files in ACBF format include panel metadata. So there should be lots of training data.

Loranubi··on How to copy a file between devices? (2022)
Because there are no terminals on phones (by default).
Loranubi··on PinePhone review after a month of daily driving
The iPhone SE 2 has 3GB memory and runs pretty smoothly.
Loranubi··on New York City plans to wipe out $2B in medical debt for 500k residents
That sounds nice, but won't medical providers/companies just increase prices next year since the feedback they get is that everything is being paid?
Loranubi··on My daily driver is older than I thought; it's positively vintage
I am using a desktop pc I built in 2012 for around 350 USD. It's running 24/7. I had to replace the mainboard, psu and ram over time due to failure (with similarly old components). The CPU AMD A10-5800K is still going strong though.
Loranubi··on Flowblade: Open-source video editor for Linux
Any good open source video editor for Windows? Top google results include https://www.openshot.org/ and https://shotcut.org/, but both don't have obvious links to the code repositories and it took me a while to find them which is often not a good sign.
Loranubi··on Memray: Python memory profiler
Not natively. WSL only.

Note that there is no support for Windows (only WSL).
Loranubi··on DDP is a (joke) language that reads like approximately correct German
So it’s Python but in German?
Loranubi··on Ask HN: Has anyone gotten complete, permanent relief from tinnitus?
My tinnitus was caused by flying long distance while having a ear infection. The first year was horrible, but after that it got a better every year and about 5 years later it's basically gone. I can only hear it now when I am in a very quiet environment or (this is the simplest way to revive it) bite down hard on my teeth. I think my brain has adjusted to the sound by masking it.

Most doctor visits were quite disappointing since they didn't do anything. I heard from many people that early therapy can help a lot (like oxygen therapy) but my doctor only tried some of these things after I repeatedly asked for it. But by that time it was already too late (like 3-4 weeks later).

What helped me was: - distraction - constant white noise in the background - avoiding any source of loud sounds/music/etc (I am very sensitive on that now) - relaxing my jaw muscles - distraction - going to the doctor at the earliest sign of possible ear infections to stop infections from spreading to the inner ear.

Loranubi··on HTTP/3 adoption is growing rapidly
SSH tunneling always works for me.
Loranubi··on Textual: Rapid Application Development framework for Python
Still no multiline text inputs though…
Loranubi··on I won't pay on your website
Oh god online payment systems are the worst. And even good ones sometimes break horribly.

Once I booked a flight online by credit card and the payment timed out (or rather stopped at a late stage without an error). Afterwards the website didn't tell me if the payment went through or not. I called the airline and my bank and neither one could tell me if the payment was successful or not. Both just told me to wait a week and then check again... this was only around 5 years ago.

In the end the payment did go through, however if it didn't, I am sure I would have lost that seat/ticket. Lots of wasted time and stress for nothing.

Loranubi··on Half of vinyl buyers in the U.S. don’t have a record player: study
I buy films on Blu-ray but didn’t have a Blu-ray player for a long time. I never really intended to use them. They are backups.
Loranubi··on MouthPad – In-Mouth Bluetooth Mouse Uses Tongue Sensitive Trackpad
The tongue muscle can be trained. This is also useful for at least one other activity.
Loranubi··on Will boiling water ruin green tea?
Boiling doesn't even kill most things. I worked in a biolab for a while and used an autoclave to sterilize objects. It basically means we pressure cooked stuff at 130°C for 45min or so. And even that doesn't destroy some dangerous stuff like prions.

Loranubi··on Stranded on a mountain, he tied his phone to a drone to text for help
This is literally the plot of the 2022 movie F** (hidden to avoid spoilers).

Torrenting is not banned in Germany. You are just easily sued if you distribute copyrighted material. Not just isp warnings and the like

Loranubi··on Which GPU(s) to get for deep learning
I mean you could even view bit flips as a regularization technique like dropout...
Loranubi··on Python 3.11 Delivers
And now do it in numba or numpy, which everyone doing serious calculations would do.
