joemountain | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: Which book would you pick to re-read for the rest of your life?
I just reread LotR, and concur. Better than I remember and makes me sad about the movies anew. But I’m a romantic sucker.
joemountain | 4 years ago | on: ImageNet contains naturally occurring Apple NeuralHash collisions
From the article, in the conclusion section: "Apple's NeuralHash perceptual hash function performs its job better than I expected"
Just want to surface that because the title seems a little sensational based on the conclusion.

Pico Digital | Onsite in San Diego, CA | full-time mid-career and entry level
We build television cable head-end systems using C++11 and embedded Linux platforms. Our current major technology development is the PD1600 platform (http://www.picodigital.com/product-details.php?ID=PD1600), which is a 16-blade system networked with a 48-port Gigabit Ethernet switch and a lot of FPGAs and additional processors. We move lots of video around over RF (cables) in several formats and IP (UDP/Ethernet).
At Pico, we have a preference for hands-dirty C/C++(11) programmers, but also like polyglots.
If interested, please email [email protected] and mention hacker news.

I was anti-extra-appliance for a long time and firmly in the just-cook-rice-on-the-stove, but not anymore. We use the $20 simple cooker to make rice, farro, sorghum, wheat berries, and all sorts of other grains which we can then simply add to almost anything to make a heartier meal.
