I kinda wanted to start a project on the first of july, but then I spent the last three days mostly sleeping and and feeling like crap, so there's that. Maybe in a couple of days or so.

Soo... any recommendations?

I kinda expected there to be five good JS implementations that work fine with potato cameras and glyphs drawn by two year olds with crayons.

I don't even want to do anything particularly complicated: use a craptacular old 120fps VGA industrial b/w camera to track a few glyph markers.
Do I really have to train the network myself?
Do I really need to reimplement the retina thresholding algorithms I keep reading about in papers myself?

Wow, apparently, you can either use the new hot shit when doing image recognition (we compiled this neural network using JavaScript on the gpu blockchain of things) or old algorithms that literally haven't been updated in ten years and that perform like shit (works best with a static scene under direct sunlight with a white background and objects painted in vantablack)

REPORT DONE AND SENT!
Now to wait for feedback and do like 7 or 8 exams in the meantime.

REPORT STATUS 70%
Just a few final touches!

REPORT STATUS 30%
Time to get things done today!

So I read this EU directive thingy thing and what I get from it is:
11) Don't just copy other people's shit, copyright's a thing yo. They have to license it to you though if you pay.
13) If someone uploads "stolen" works to your site, take them down and make sure they don't upload them again. Like, keep a list of MD5-hashes or something.

Also, in tech news, I'm pretty close to figuring out Rust on the ESP-32. Not pretty, not easy, but certainly doable. I'd kinda like to get Actix.rs working there.

Like, I have things do to! It's been weeks since I've had a real workout and days since I've just enjoyed the sun.

Okay, I have like two more days if I need them but I really want to get this done today

there's some kind of noise gate on my phones audio output which makes talk radio without a soundbed sound really weird

You: Intel architecture
Me: Actually, Intel is the manufacturer. You're thinking of Intel's monster.

I'll probably just take two days off and see if that helps, and if it doesn't, I'll just have to push some courses back.

Managed to completely overwork myself on mostly voluntary work.
Great.
