Just a heads up but the super resolution example absolutely spams the history API in your browser if you move the map slightly. You could add a bit of delay before trying to save the new location in the URL.

If I understand it correctly it never let's the "enduser" connect directly to the email accounts. It always has a service in between. That way as far as Gmail or Outlook knows it only gets requests from one or a handful of IP addresses.

Floatplane is a video service built by the people behind the popular Youtube channel LinusTechTips. It is not a direct competitor to Youtube though. The platform makes it easier to let paying fans get videos earlier but it is not meant to build an audience.

Re:Show HN: CrowdCapture – create image datasets together on Friday March 20, 2020 @03:58AM (#22635853)

Hey Hacker News! Today I am launching my side project https://crowdcapture.org which I built to make working together on image datasets easier.

When I started trying out machine learning I quickly learned finding images for your dataset can be a time consuming process. It is even harder to find images that have the appropriate license.

On CrowdCapture you can create projects and user can upload images to it. Every image will be checked by another user before it is added to the dataset. Then every week a new zip will be created with the uploaded images added.
