I tried the on-device image input model with an app I am building. It's not very good at world-knowledge recall, but can describe the submitted image well enough.

We have one of these in my town, Denton TX. KUZU FM. I think it was one of the first. It was originally a pirate radio station, that went legit with LPFM.

...let's say instead of a dolphin named flipper, the character / avatar on the product was a plumber with a big mustache named "Mario". You're telling me Nintendo isn't filing a C&D?
Re:Flipper Zero: Tamagochi for Hackers on Tuesday March 09, 2021 @07:00PM (#26406130)
i wonder if anyone owns the rights to the name "flipper" from the TV show. could potentially be argued that it's IP theft.
I found this really interesting to read. It's really cool that they use the mechanical press of the buttons to generate energy. I had never thought of that before. However when you think about those old longpress ratchet flashlights - that was the same concept.

If Facebook is negligent or complicit, I'd certainly change how I interact with the platform. I haven't kept up with the details and would love to be pointed to some summation / analysis of the facts.

BloomReach | Integration Engineer | Dallas, TX | Full time | Onsite | https://bloomreach.com/ How do you do? The BloomReach Tech-Services team has a Dallas spot open for an engineer. If you love to get your hands dirty with the connective bits to enable customer integrations, webscraping, and data analysis, give me a ping (I’m on this team).

BloomReach is a product and engineering driven company, headquartered in Mountain View, CA, with a Dallas office of ~20 people just north of downtown. We're walking distance to Mavs games (sup Dirk). We opened up shop here ~2 years ago. Most of our products revolve around search, analytics, personalization, and content management and power many of the biggest brands online.

I’ve been part of the company for 2 of it's 9 years and it has easily been the best step of my career. We’re in an interesting place where a lot of our customers are pivoting from their cumbersome and clunky solutions and they find us. We have two facets to our product geode, Content and Commerce --- and for what its worth, both products are well-placed in Gartner’s 2018 magic quadrant for their respective categories.

Our founder and CEO, Raj, built the company with a goal to make BloomReach the most impactful professional experience of each employee’s career. This describes me. You’re going to be hard pressed to find a better place to work in Dallas for software eng.

And if you’re not the engineer type, we also have Solution Architect, Senior PM, Senior Sales Analyst, and Sales Development Rep positions open in Dallas too (message me [email protected]).
