Anybody here aware of research on hand written glyphs to be parsed by computer vision?
I'm not looking for neural nets interpreting written text.
More like qr codes or apriltags written by hand, but designed to be easy for humans to write
Finished "the art of doing science and engineering" recently. Hamming stuffed a lot of good insights in this book, but hidden behind anecdotes and not explicitly stated. Thinking about writing a book review to distill what I got out of reading it
If I see the words "in conclusion" in any piece of writing, be it an article, comment, or in a book my eyes will immediately glaze over and I skip that paragraph with zero regrets
Learned about to folk.computer recently. It's an open source physical computing environment. I'm in the hunt for used hardware to set it up in my place now!
Solid playlist for getting a grasp on tensors. I've had some trouble moving from linear algebra into tensors (mostly because I slacked in comprehending change of basis). Now have a solid idea what makes a vector and a covector different, why we do matrix multiplication (and other LA operations) the way we do, and how to interact with multilinear maps.

More bit twiddling on old consoles! It really amazed me how much effort must have gone into just figuring out how to display the picture you wanted before interacting with GPUs was largely standardized

I learned recently that @michaelmicasso is one of my favorite pixel artists that I used to follow on reddit from a couple years ago. Thought that the Art styles were unusually similar, and I finally realized after going through some old saved reddit posts that it's because they're the same!
Watch a guy make a game for the SNES. This kind of bit twiddling really gives me the urge to make an old school 2d style game, but zk provable with onchain rewards
