A good simplified explanation of computer image recognition and its role in autonomous vehicles, and what makes them fail.

I doubt anyone actually watches these, but here's a video of my ride earlier today. (At the start of the video, I accidentally said it was Tuesday, April 21 when it was Wednesday. Whoopsie.)

Also, I'm not really sure where I should be posting these, exactly. I posted the last one in the Epic Win thread mostly because I saw it as an Epic Win to take waking up early from bad dreams and using the time to go biking.

I watch occasionally. I enjoy seeing Halifax and areas of town that I frequent, but haven't explored outside of driving.

Be careful in Bayer's Lake - those shared lanes are narrow!

I can't remember where I found this video, so forgive me if it was on Halforums, but this look at the costuming in The Muppet Christmas Carol is amazing:

That video was painful to watch. All the "cutesy" cuts and sounds effects just ruined it for me. I stopped watching it at 2 minutes because the content bugged me.

I am (mostly) over my fear of heights. Every so often though my brain remembers that people aren't supposed to get so high off the ground. Watching Tom Scott walk backwards off the edge of a wind turbine qualifies.

We had a ropes course at a boy scout camp I attended and there was a repelling tower there. I got to the top and physically could not make myself go over the edge, no matter how many other people did it, no matter what support was given to me, my body just noped out HARD.

I could climb that wind turbine and work on the insides without much issue, I think, but as soon as the door opened, I would be frozen in terror.

I have a fear of heights (or rather falling from a height) that has caused similar issues. We've done obstacle course races that I've either had to psyche myself to get down, or have frozen in terror.

Ningen Isu is actually Japanese and yeah, they've been around FOREVER... they just didn't hit it big internationally until they played Ozzfest in 2013.

My mistake. Someone told me they were Chinese. I wasn't certain enough to argue.
