Re:Against SQL on Saturday July 10, 2021 @06:58AM (#27792542)
My bet is that somepoint we are going to get very good NLP model where you feed tabular data, and then you are going query througt normal language. That would like be pretty big change and would eat pretty big share of sql market share.
Do this for products and get that referal $$$. This week I tried to find good cover case for Iphone and currently with google it is almost imbosible.
Re:Spotify is killing the open podcast ecosystem (2020) on Tuesday April 20, 2021 @01:05PM (#26877384)
I think cars are reason. Spotify wants in cars. Daniel Ek has said this thing like many times now. If Spotify can corner podcast market then car companies has to do deals with Spotify and they cannot just use custom build apps or some other competitors.
Doing ML with stereo vision is very hard in controlled settings, and I don't even wanna think how hard it has to be in moving vehicles with lots reflections and other IRL stuff.

They are very different but same time very similar as native Finnish speaker it was allways pretty surreal when visiting Hungary I could ask about places like Bajcsy-Zsilinszky and people would undestand me.

Moominpappa at Sea is somewhat similar to Watership Down where they are children books but themes are very deep. For Pipi it is kind silly adult point of view but generally chilren some weird reason loves it, nowdays my 4-yeard old dresses like pipi several times a week.

Javascript demos is one option https://www.dwitter.net/
My current theory is that you would make Reddit much better if you would make spillitting and merging subreddits much more fluid eg users could vote that branch this subreddit and they would automatically moved to "new branch".

Also I would change moderetion to slashdot style https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slashdot#Peer_moderation so moderation would be basically comminity based.

Self-driving vechicles something like https://www.starship.xyz/ but food delivery would be killer.

Also here Finland I am paying 22 euros for unlimited 150mbit/s 4g connection and population density is pretty similar to Ontario.

>grocery delivery

I think the USA implementation is poor not the idea is bad. Here Finland K-ryhmä[1] did really nailed implementation and it is like 10x better than going to the supermarket. My mom and aunt both in their 70 started using this separately and both are saying they are not going to back in supermarkets after covid19.

Re:We Need DevOps for ML Data on Wednesday April 29, 2020 @12:53AM (#23015515)
I think currently it creates new possibilities to do business. Computer vision is that point that nowadays it is more engineering than data science so adding something like somewhat good object detection is not that hard. NLP is probably same point where cv was 5 years ago so we start seeing very good NLP models.

It would be pretty cool when you zoom out first you see methods of how they are linked. Then classes and how they linked together.

Could you build PWA top of IPFS or something similar and create decentralized apps.

Re:Shirt Without Stripes on Monday April 20, 2020 @01:11PM (#22925907)
My bet is that sites are generally optimized to a keyword search and this kind NLP search engine would return subpar answers most cases.

Remote will be huge and there is definitely a need for tools to enable remote working and communication.
Smart air-condition and cooling is also a possibility, a here Finland we have started to piloting programs where heating is smart so houses are heated more when electricity prices are low.
