WebRTC services are much better than app based, quality adapts even if you have bad wifi.
Now I'm switching from Skype to something web-based (+ webrtc). I think those are examples of the best videoconferencing software.
What drives me crazy is how they make 3 million trees sound like a lot. I am a Forester and we typically plant over 600 trees per acre so 3 million is only about 5,000 acres. Which is not a particularly large forest. Hell I have 5 times that in a moderately size metropolitan area.
A decent crew of 5 people can plant that in a few months.
I'm sure their prices are extremely high but we pay less than 10 cents a seedling and that is for high end seedlings.
Planting doesn't cost much more than that either.
Once again I am sure it is different in a place that doesn't have a forestry industry, but if it is a national priority they could make it happen.
Most of the stuff he wants is either trivial, or an implementation hell that Will never happen. Hard and soft links solve the hierarchical filesystem problem, kwin has windows tabbing (nobody uses it), rewriting every single app from scratch for a theoretical gain? Sure that's happening.
The only good idea is the system documents database, and it isn't really that useful.
It's a bit too bad they're having to move towards supervised learning and imitation learning.
I totally understand why they need to do that given the insane decision trees, but I was really hoping to see what the AI would learn to do without any human example, simply because it would be inhuman and interesting.
I'm really interested in particular if an unsupervised AI would use very strange building placements and permanently moving ungrouped units.
One thing that struck me in the video was the really actively weird mining techniques in one clip and then another clip where it blocked its mineral line with 3 raised depots...
