rontoes··on Show HN: Tingy – search videos with natural language queries
Interesting idea - I would like to try it out.
rontoes··on Ask HN: How to create a Zoom recording bot?
Thanks for sharing TLDV. Would love to hear more about your approach, if you're willing to share?
rontoes··on Doctor GPT-3 will see you now
Interesting - I wonder what's the ratio of true vs. false knowledge in the corpus that GPT-3 is trained on. Perhaps someone has performed a study on this for a specific domain?
rontoes··on Show HN: RocketFact – get a daily fact about spacecraft and rockets over SMS
Would love to get feedback on how to make this more interesting, any technical issues, etc.
rontoes··on Code review of the Imperial College London Covid-19 modelling
This is an incredibly poor take. It's well known that academic software doesn't follow great software engineering practices. The model is an incredibly complex piece of software that attempts to model stochastic behaviour. That it isn't fully deterministic (with a fixed random seed) doesn't make thee research invalid and shouldn't discredit research that builds on the model.

>On a personal level, I’d go further and suggest that all academic epidemiology be defunded. This sort of work is best done by the insurance sector.

This is another level of crazy.

rontoes··on Ask HN: Oil's % change tomorrow if negative to positive?
Will this break a lot of systems?
rontoes··on Show HN: Dimensionality reduction – upload a CSV and explore structure in data
This is currently the minimal (maybe even less) viable project. Would welcome feedback on:

- Is this useful?

- Killer features

- Bugs

rontoes··on Show HN: Fast, human feedback on your CV
Would appreciate any feedback, particularly on the price point. Happy to provide free CV/resume feedback to the first 5 people that request it here.
rontoes··on FastMRI leverages adversarial training to remove image artifacts
Similar approach, although Subtle Medical are not using adversarial training, just plain old conv-nets with a non-adversarial loss.
rontoes··on Show HN: Closest Volcano
Will try to reduce the download size. Unfortunately I don't have much control over the embedded map but I assume Google has optimised this to a decent extent
rontoes··on Show HN: Closest Volcano
Which browser/device are you using?
rontoes··on Show HN: Closest Volcano
Do you have any experience with the Google Maps API? I would love to implement this.
rontoes··on Show HN: Closest Volcano
I will add this feature!
rontoes··on Show HN: Closest Volcano
That's right. Honestly, web development is far from my expertise, I'm more of an AI guy. Data is mainly from http://volcano.oregonstate.edu/volcano_table and a few other sources.

Thank you for the feedback! I am going to collate the inaccuracies and update the volcano database. I am also going to try to fix the errors a few of you have experienced.
