Why they is so many 404. Linked to mp3 ?! What was this feature ?

A copyrighted image of a nude model elected for no obvious reason has a test image in the University of South California by some pervs and then used in a lot of papers as a test image.

Or, a standard cropped image of a playgirl used in the field of image processing.


"elected for no obvious reason" isn't quite right, as a test image for computer graphics it has regions of very high frequency detail and regions of very low frequency detail which make it easier to spot various compression artifacts, and it makes a good study for edge detection, with both very clear edges along the outline, but more subjective edges in the feathering.


It's redish. Ok it has a blur and details on the foreground but could have been any image with blurred background and a face.

"very low frequency detail", we are talking about a 512x512 picture here, it has low and high frequency details (FFT speaking) like most photos.

"Good for edges detection" doesn't mean anything. Like, is the image good for edge detection or the algorithm is good at detecting edges ? What does "subjective edges" even mean ? Does it mean hard to spot ?

That looks like technical reasons but it just noise. They literally grab a playboy magazine and decided it was well enough (and indeed, it wasn't that bad, yes). Still not professional. The message is "We have playboy magazines at work and we are proud of it".


Try out running different edge detection algorithms on that image and you will see that there is a lot of disagreement amongst them in the feathering region. Exploring what the differences are, and how the algorithms lead to those differences helps build intuition about the range of things we might call an "edge", and which algorithm is appropriate for a particular task at hand.

It’s perverted now?


It's literally cropped pornography.


Is a nude picture perverted?


No. That is not the question. The question is "do you hang out with an erotic magazine at work ?" and "Is it normal ?"

No I think the social context is inappropriate. However I do not think possessing or liking such a picture is perverted. I also do not thinking a cropped version of the picture which has no sexual content is inappropriate.

Just a side note to remember that this is a mini model. It's very small and yet 12 languages.

I guess a European version can be created but now it's aimed at a world wide distribution.


Ahah. After trying myself, I immediately tried "Obama" and it works ! But oddly enough, most personality with a name in the "List of organisms named after famous people" doesn't work. Nether does bacterium or fish !

The flatworm genus Obama is not named after Barack Obama. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obama_(flatworm)


Impressive. Kudos.

You realise that it's only a toy implementation aimed at learning and not a full implementation. The parsing of HTML alone is way more complex than your actual implementation not mentioning at lot of things like the rendering or network (outsourced to Qt).

Still a nice achievement that get you to understand why making a browser is a very complex task.


Related to the last Telnet CVE? Why talking about telnet now otherwise?


haha, I was just going to say the same thing


They do. « we are committed to contributing back to the LiveKit community whenever feasible ».


Can access X because it's X and locally blocked, "ironic" to use Twitter to post about sovereignty.

It's ongoing for a will with La suite numérique (https://lasuite.numerique.gouv.fr/).

- Tchap is a message app for officials, - Visio, based on LiveKit - FranceTransfert, I don't know what is it. - Fichiers => Drive - Messagerie => Email - Docs => A better Google Docs - Grist => Excel version of Google docs.

It aimed at "public worker", people working for the government.

Ironic to use Github to post about sovereignty )


I'm trying to not use it myself but yes, la suite numérique should get out of GitHub.

They already did it for the Ministry of Education with [La Forge](https://docs.forge.apps.education.fr/). Used to be forgejo, now a GitLab instance.


GitLab, a YC and by extension an American company )

This can go as far as we want )


It does not matter in that case, the software is open-source.


The chips your computer is using were produced by hardware that was itself produced by ASML, a Dutch company.


Built using Django!


It's in the AUR (aur/tree-sitter-yaml), a community-driven repository of Arch Linux packages. Not yet official.

Since it comes from `tree-sitter-grammars/tree-sitter-yaml`, it may be quick to integrate the official repo.


Yeap, the two seems like game changer. For now, I'm using "Qwen2.5-Coder-7B". Sweep 1.5B is "just" 12 % point better than Qwen2.5-Coder, but Sweep 7B is 25% point better.
