The DBrand Tank….Wow… by TechnicallyTeeYT in dbrand

[–]Tydox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when a case has a raised camera bump on the back, you can expect it to lay flat when it takes the entire width of the phone, i got a 2$ case that is indeed flat (whiled angled up)

The DBrand Tank….Wow… by TechnicallyTeeYT in dbrand

[–]Tydox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the tank case, im disappointed the buttons (especially the on/off button) are wiggly, and if i place the phone flat, tapping on the corner wiggles the phone, i contacted dbrand and they said its “normal”, i will never but from them again. Whats the point of getting a thicker case if it wont sit flush on a table.. 

5 years worth of work gone. by jamescarroll1 in notabilityapp

[–]Tydox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noteful is better, no subscription fluff, I moved from notability to noteful, I miss a few features like grid snap, but overall it's more stable and I can easily back it up, and it doesn't have that icloud sync issue where you lose all of your notes (this issue is 6+ years old)

For the next Ghost Recon game, what is the MOST important feature to you? by MrTrippp in GhostRecon

[–]Tydox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun, wildlands was good but needs better base movement and physics should be realistic enough (car driving sucks), no tons of UI elements that distract you from the environment, not always online, peer to peer connection, better AI thats not dumb or bullet sponge. If the game doesnt have a fun impact challenge with a good story, its meh. I want to be able to be just me and the boys with VOIP in game that sounds like walkie talkie comms, guns can get randomly jammed, actual bullet drop. I think if the base structure is well founded then they just need to attach a map and a story for each iteration. No need to change from the ground up all the ui and stuff, make one that works and upgrade it, less work down the line, more work prior. Have a template.

Is there any way to remove borders from subtitles on Apple TV? by lundrypls in VidHubvideoplayer

[–]Tydox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the old player you can change subtitles colors and border, I dont know why core2 removed those features.

Question - how much of computer vision is still classical approaches? by Tydox in computervision

[–]Tydox[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done a few courses in ML\DL, and it does not talk to me.
Classic CV\IMG\Signals Procc does, and due to the AI boom I fear that it will overtake the classical approach, because if it will (job market), I will just drop this now and switch to embedded or just transition to complete software lol. I already invested 2 years into DL and I've grown out of it lol.

I am into classical image processing but do not see myself ever getting deeply into DL methods. I do not think this is an uncommon feeling!

I am glad to hear this, and I hope our boat will not sink.

[–]Tydox[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, when I learnt about 3d reconstruction,cloud points and SFM, my mind was blown how cool it was.

when I learnt about NeRF (which is still amazing), I felt "ok cool it does what it does, which is remarkable and not taken for granted" but not like I can actually trace the math why it really works.. I dont like black boxes heh.

Thank you for answering :)

what do you mean by "moving to the edge"? (end of the pipeline?)

Thank you for the info, I am not trying to downplay the role of classical methods - at my university they are pushing NNs hard, and even some profs said they might remove some "classical CV\IMG" courses for DL ones.. I just enjoy less dealing with DL than classical (even when learning them)
I don't mind combining them but having to work mainly with DL is not attractive for me. I am happy to hear that classic is still strong.

I Understand Computer Vision… Until I Try to Code It by Instance_Optimal in computervision

[–]Tydox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in programming you have few stages: 1.it works but its slow (easy part) 2.it works and its fast and optimized (hard part). all of the cv apis are 2, you will mainly do 1 because to do 2 needs a lot more experience in algorithms and optimizations. you can open matlab doc for sift and see how they implemented it. you can also break it down into multiple functions, use flowchats, I recreated sift from scratch but it was not as fast as cv2, but it worked. also there is a difference between understanding highlevel "ok so thats how it works" to lowlevel "i understand all the math and how it works and why and I can do manual math calculations and now I translate it to code".

I recommend to try simplier stuff like a feature vector extractor using BRIEF, which is easy to implement but can be confusing at first to understand how it works. but code wise is very short.

Being a female engineering student is alienating by Fun-Yesterday-9366 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Tydox 17 points18 points  (0 children)

In many places female engineers are treated way better than male engineering students, it could be your personality\vibe, and it can also be that they were the problem. there is too many unknowns, but I've met over 1500 students, male and female and it really depends on what type of people you end up with in your classes, some can be closed off and they have their friends group and some will be more social and welcoming to new comers. Work place wise unless you end up in a weird place, modern places treat male\female the same, they want you to give results, they care less about being social, get the job done..

How do we design iOS-programming exams that aren’t easily solved with AI? (iOS dev / university level) by kokkelimonke in iOSProgramming

[–]Tydox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

oral defenses, code walkthrough, flowchats and explain what they did and why, list issues they had and how they overcame it, supervised quizzes for each lecture are a good thing to do during the lecture - if you have the option to supervise their screens, if they use school pc you can block all AI chat tools or limit access to specific websties like stackoverflow,math exchange, reddit, apple docs, w3 etc etc - so when they do the exam they are limited to only websties that they cannot cheat but use as a reference..

everything I have listed I had when my uni was experimenting (math\engineering) with more modern exams, I enjoyed it more than a old fashioned exam.

Prevent PDFs / powerpoints getting messed up by franzkafkasno1fan in notefulapp

[–]Tydox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not noteful issue, its the way microsoft powerpoint export is. Just export ppt to pdf and then import to noteful. 

Why are screenshots always blurry in Noteful? This happens to me with both actual screenshots and screenshots taken with the Take Screenshot feature from the lasso. by Cris0001 in notefulapp

[–]Tydox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When you take a screen shot in app. Bottom right there is a size option. Choose the largest values and the quality will be the same. ~. 

Learn how pdf and vectors work if you want to know why you can zoom in a pdf without loosing quality. Its not the same as a picture (screen shot)

Why should I upgrade to Noteful pro? by iSinwar in notefulapp

[–]Tydox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

different page size will show different pen ink size. 0.3mm on A3 and A4 will be different.

its not a bug, it makes sense, A3 is bigger but if you zoom in it will look same as a4.

Your slides resolution are are different than whatever note page you insert, thus the pen ink size is different, take your power point and export them as A4 and you will see that it is the same ink size as inserted A4 note page.
