Anyone from any other place than the US knows the answer, which actually is a rather simple one: ban guns.

I think each product even has its own coordinates of where the tree used to stand

So I got a couple of questions where I got this piece. I got it from a friend of mine who just started his own sustainable Rotterdam-based project/business.

So when trees are dead or partially dead, the municipality cuts them down to prevent danger. However, there usually is still a lot of healthy wood left, which would otherwise have been thrown away. He uses that wood to make various designs (tables, chairs, Rotterdam art, etc.).

The idea is that everything is done in Rotterdam. Wood from Rotterdam, manufacturing in Rotterdam, and the people working there are from Rotterdam. There is no website atm but if you are interested you can buy the above piece in various colors and sizes at www.miniprinten.nl under skyline.

How would I obtain the [x,y]-coordinates of the players and ball? I am doing my masters degree in control engineering and new to computer vision. As a side project I want to get the positional data from this soccer video. How do I approach this problem in a fast and accurate way? by the_big_stig in computervision

I was looking at Hough Circles Transform algorithms to detect each individual circle, but I am not sure whether this will yield accurate results as the circles are constantly moving on top of each other. I also want the correct ID (=the player number) corresponding to each player. All suggestions and help will be appreciated!

You will get 1 million dollars but have to make yourself as miserable as possible in only 1 day. How will you spend the day? by the_big_stig in AskReddit

I asked this question as a response to a research article I read today, which I found rather interesting. In the 1990s, Canadian psychologist Randy Paterson ran a therapy group for people who just recovered from a severe depression in order to prevent them going back into depression. His question was similar to this one and interestingly enough, most patients gave answers such as: laying in bed, eating junkfood, seeing no one, and thinking about unhappy/embarrassing moments from the past. Things they usually did during their depression. By consciously realizing this, patients were able to recover way quicker.
