A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I know that when I'm playing cards in a dress that's melted into my skin, with my favorite half-bracelet draped over my wrist, I love to intimidate my opponent by flashing them two face cards. Who wouldn't be shaken by the Kinmb of Back of Card and the Quing of 21s? Especially when I've already played my oversized red card.

Haha, thanks for the good chuckle. I read this before proceeding to the article.

You can tell it's not our intrepid card player's first rodeo, though! The dress melting technique was adjusted to leave the perfect slot for a pendant. That had to be a tweak from a later refinement.

There's a lot going on with the shapes in that image. It seems like a good example of how the algorithms parse a scene.
