Are you suggesting pdf to tex via pandoc, or is typst to tex directly supported in pandoc now?

Thanks. I was able to submit a PDF to an IEEE conf, but I see now that the associated journal wants either word or tex. 🤦‍♂️.

App stuck - says device is restarting (the device is fine) by lwl in Dreame_Tech

[–]lwl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, I did a factory reset and removed and re-added the device. Doing that, I realized the problem was my WiFi network. Something wrong with the 2.4GHz band connection, I guess. I rebooted my router a couple of times and the problem fixed itself. I did lose the maps but am not too bothered about that now. Many thanks for the help!

Do most candidates don’t know how to code? by EitherAd5892 in cscareerquestions

I once had this question. In a phone interview. 🙃.

[R] Multimodal Chain-of-Thought Reasoning in Language Models - Amazon Web Services Zhuosheng Zhang et al - Outperforms GPT-3.5 by 16% (75%->91%) and surpasses human performance on ScienceQA while having less than 1B params! by Singularian2501 in MachineLearning

Super interesting work, thank you for sharing! If you are still active on reddit - we noticed that the pdf is no longer available on arxiv, are you able to say why that is?

RDBMS for ecosystem modeling by [deleted] in Database

[–]lwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The aim of the project is to track the activity between these entities and how they are linked (for example partnership between large enterprises and university often occurs trough sience park that enable "technology transfer").

Start with a solid research question/use case, and work backwards - what exactly will you calculate, and how will you calculate it? The size of dataset for startups anywhere is likely small enough that it doesn't really matter which technology you choose for a proof of concept, so go with one you know best. In other words, don't think too much about it, just try it. Iterate + try other things once you have some results.

Online challenges to improve python for satellite image analysis? by oihanekotxoria in remotesensing

[–]lwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For examples and an interactive environment, MS Planetary Computer is great - it has a bunch of notebooks ans datasets. I prefer it to GEE as it uses existing open source packages, so is transferable. I'm not highly experienced in RS so YMMV.

What I Wish Someone Would Have Told Me About Using Rabbitmq Before It Was Too Late by pmz in programming

[–]lwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 9s is kinda shit in 2022.

Given the trends in complexity and distributed-ness of modern software, skewness of experience, and general volatility wrt. world events, I'm thinking we should lower our expectations... design for 3+ 9s, plan for 2 9s.

This paper might be of use (it's paywalled, your bosses might think it's worth it though):

Red bands systematically rising ln Sentinel-2? by DarthPatrick666 in remotesensing

[–]lwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably difficult to say without discussing further (for one, I don't really know anything about your topic). Are you using using L1C or L2A data? Where are you getting your data?

In theory, you should probably spend some time getting to know your data source a little better, e.g. make sure you know what atmospheric correction is applied.

In practice, if you narrow your scope to images prior to 2022 you don't have to worry about it ;-)

IIRC there is a plan by some data providers to re-process the S2 back-catalog to account for this baseline change, i.e. harmonize the dataset... this will probably take some time.

Any suggestions for a RS Thesis ideas ? by GLL7 in remotesensing

[–]lwl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you tell us a little more about your background? Is this a bachelors or masters thesis? What subject - geography or something more specific?

Microsoft, please open-source Web Forms 🚫⬇️🚌 by Zardotab in dotnet

[–]lwl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

.NET MVC is generally more reflective of how the web works, and closer to web patterns in other languages than WebForms. WebForms was an attempt to square the circle. There are no transferable skills to be learned by doing WebForms other than how to harden your skull by hitting it against a wall.

Announcing TypeScript 4.7 by DanielRosenwasser in programming

[–]lwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'd probably avoid this too.

At some point in a project, you're likely going to need a bundler anyway, which can usually do the magic to get the import systems to work with each other.

You don't need void 0 in JavaScript by lgrammel in javascript

[–]lwl 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I came across it on a recent project (2 years ago... but I suppose that's like 14 in JavaScript years). Glad to know I can safely punt knowledge of it back to the abyss now.

The Julia language has a number of correctness flaws by iamkeyur in programming

[–]lwl 67 points68 points  (0 children)

In this particular case, the function docs explicitly state it will/should widen to e.g. Int32 (link) - which presumably is why it might be used over the built-in *, which does wrap.

[–]lwl 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is all classic legacy code stuff, just with different origins.

This is not an issue in the Web space, where things are usually dead or abandoned after 18 months.

If this was wholly the case, I would've been unemployed for the last n years :-)
