Is there anything like this for the vector landscape?

This may just be due to the iterative denoising approach a lot of these models take but they only seem to work well when creating raster style images.

In my experience when you ask them to create logos, shirt designs, illustrations, they tend to not work as well and introduce a lot of artifacts, distortions, incorrect spellings etc.

Wow.. you've done a lot thanks for resurrecting this!

Like many of the others, WebOS kicked off my career into software development and was my first endeavor building software larger then a simple website.

I created GetMeVino as a simple wine resource for myself as there were similar apps on IOS and I wanted one to use on WebOS. I remember posting it on precentral forums and actually got interest from Palm themselves to build it out further and release it on their catalog. I was blown away, inspired by the possibilities and that really lit a fire in me to want to continue creating even outside WebOS.

Definitely wouldn't have been here today without WebOS.

Some other highlights, the browser based IDE Ares way ahead of its time, WebOS at CES2010 and the Palm developer relations, getting invited to Mozilla for Firefox OS.

I am going to need to find my old devices now!

Not to make small of her points, as i am sure women may get it more but the point 'Why should a woman have to expect to be harassed every time she puts herself out there online?'.

I agree this is bullshit, but its the same for anyone, if you put yourself out there expect to be harassed.

would say those are generally two different markets user bases no? Not everyone who could leverage color pallets has to write code.

'Looking back on this experience, I think some people are incredibly ego-driven, so the prospect of doing something off-the-shelf or for free doesn't enter their conscience.'

I agree completely and have experienced the same very often.

Great looking service, excited to check it out further. The company I work for builds lots of self service video portals for clients and we use Azure Media Services for ingestion, transcoding, storage and streaming.

Care to elaborate on how this related to Azure Media Services?

Thanks!

Exactly.

I think there are a lot of individuals that preach things like the 4HWW when trying to achieve a wealthy lifestyle with little or no work, but the author is just taking advantage of that.

Work smarter not harder, and it doesnt make you a craftsman by working slower or over longer periods, its about optimizing your time and being as effective as possible. Much of a typical 40hr work week is wasted time.

Re:Can we tokenize behavior? on Thursday December 28, 2017 @02:29PM (#16024234)
I think we need to be careful about integrating blockchain into the fabric of societies, especially the social and emotional aspects.

'Think not of how to replumb or rewire the world, but how to create the environment where interactions can be different, social, within a new economic order.'

This gets me thinking of the episode Fifteen Million Merits (S1, Ep2) of Black Mirror.

Pretty simple use case but I integrated the Cognitive Service API with a simple personality quiz app that allowed the user to upload their photo to determine gender and age in addition to the questions they answered that helped determine who they got matched up with.

Very simple REST API, I was able to mock everything up with POSTMAN(chrome rest app) then quickly port the calls to PHP code making simple curl requests.

I guess I missed the memo. When did it happen that web markup suddenly got a need to be dynamic?
Not always so.. maybe his circumstances favor working on the weekends and it happens to be a benefit to him?
thanks for the help ;)

More specifically, its the 'connector' piece of the cable, not really the ethernet. It stands for Registered Jack-47 and is more or less a standardization for 'connectors' or jacks.

definitely not as plug and play a solution as the sdk in question, but certainly an option.
