TIL, and this sounds actually rather useful.
Do you have information on which ones would support that? Especially in the range a curious hacker (who else is HN for?) would be interested in.
It's especially useful in crowd gatherings, group photos and such. I think it's rather designed for concerts, weddings, etc.
My A7-III has it. Since it uses Eye-AF and Face-AF pipelines (it generates a face model from the photo you take for that feature only), it needs AI autofocus stack inside the camera. A7-C should have it, maybe latest APS-C lines (6600 for example) have it.
Sony's AF tech is insane. Point to a person with sunglasses, and it marks the eye instantaneously. What the actual sorcery?
Well the goal is to recognize a face, not to match a specific face to a specific person. So you can train an AF model to to center focus on the center of the sunglasses. Even with the 'track these specific faces' features, since your still not trying to unique identify someone, the model can latch on to generic features like "red sunglasses, brown skin, surgical mask & this general shape".
That depends what the law says. Some of the pressure here is to stop the police themselves from using the tech, I wouldn’t know if any given law prevents personal use.
Government ban means banned for use by government officials/entities. So it doesn't really apply to the general public or corporations(Unless the corporation specifically has a contract with the same requirements to do work on behalf of the government)
Land use at least is much more efficient when harvests are every 4-5 years instead of every 40-80 years with spruce or fir. Birch can be felled at around 55 years.
Normal wood is kiln dried similarly to bamboo, and glued panels are done in a similar fashion.
We could do the same process with fast growing bush-form softwoods like poplar or willow that regenerate from roots.
In fact a stand of young poplars doesn't look too dissimilar from a bamboo grove; lots of narrow straight trees.
I cut two dying poplars on my property a few years ago and there's now a stand of dozens of 4" diameter smaller trees, sprouted out from the root system.
" Are all "inventions" made using windows now also partially created/owned by Microsoft? "
I suppose that depends on what crafty Microsoft lawyers have written to the contracts. I would assume no. It's a tool which is in the possession of the person who bought the license from Microsoft.
The phrase isn’t “children who are poor”, it’s “children living in poverty.” Which yes primarily counts children living with poor parents, but could also count runaway children, children living as wards of the state in bad conditions, etc. Either way, it’s defined as children in living conditions that don’t have enough resources to meet a minimal acceptable standard.
I would look past the literal question in the parent, and think about the implications: Who provides for children? Why should they suffer poverty, having no power or responsibility for their own condition?
Dependents can certainly live in poverty - that does almost always indicate that the family unit as a whole lives in poverty but it does allow some differentiation for families that are struggling with debt but manage to provide a relatively poverty free childhood for their offspring.
We attach a dollar figure to make it easier to measure, but a different way to look at it is when your basic needs are not met (food, shelter) you live in poverty; you are impoverished.
You're getting downvoted for the joke, but in a way, yes everyone in the USA is supposed to provide for themselves.
Aside from a few demeaning and complicated government programs, the USA has only distributed resources through factor payments based on labor, or ownership of capital. Most of our programs aiming to help the poor only phase in after the poor have earned a certain amount of money through labor.
