Re:Building an e-ink picture frame that displays an iCloud photo album on Tuesday January 09, 2024 @01:48PM (#38930171)

Not really. Software for each of them is clunky. You have to first buy one which is wifi enabled. Then you have to download an app from manufacturer and create a login password. Then you have to manually move/upload photos from camera roll to the corresponding app. After this, you have to to back to digital photo frame interface, select the appropriate picture and then tap "display this photo".

All of this should be one step. Ideally Like airdrop. I say "share" and it should magically show up on the photo frame. I should be able to download pics from reddit/imgur and display it on photo frame using a CLI/API.

You are asking the wrong people. The offshore people (i.e. people living in India) will just justify what they see as "part of culture". They are part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Talk to some expat Indians and you may get an answer.

As an expat, my reason is simple. Apathy!

Sequoia is well respected because they invest and generate returns for their investors, not for displaying any kind of morals.

Well, github claims to be social network. Sooner or later these features were supposed to popup. Its a miracle it took so many years to come. Move to another platform is our only option.

Cool. Looking forward to see the intermediate dataset.

I think you should post a ToDo list on the git repo. People can then contribute their skills.

Thanks for making this open source. What about the index? Are you open sourcing that also?

Re:We raised $100M for open and collaborative machine learning on Monday May 09, 2022 @12:05PM (#31315886)

We tried huggingface.co with great hope recently. Unfortunately, though their system was well orchestrated, we could not make progress on baby steps.

We uploaded our model to github and then downloaded to hugging face. Why the package installed correctly, it failed because underlying Glibc headers were compiled with a version that is different from Hugging face's. So, while the platform works for some situations, it still has a long way to go.

That explains why she is wearing a mask. Boss forced her to come to office and she is not comfortable coming in, yet!

>> I was put off by the fact that she's wearing a mask in our 1-1 zoom meeting anyway

This is unfair. I was in the woman's shoes recently. Somone in her family may be having Covid!
