All I can think of is image generation of potential targets like ships, airplane, airfield and feed them to their satellite or drones for image detection and tweak their weapons for enhance precision.


I think the usual computer vision wisdom is that this (training object detection on generated imagery) doesn't work very well. But maybe the corps have some techniques that aren't in the public literature yet.


My understanding is the opposite, see papers for "synthetic" data training. They use a small bit if real data to generate lots of synthetic data and get usable results.

The bias leans towards overfitting the data, which in some use cases - such as missile or drone design which doesn't need broad comparisons like 747s or artillery to complete it's training.

Kind of like neural net back propogation but in terms of model /weights


Your hiring page is so cool! Love it!


But a pain to use on phones.


Thanks!


oh no wonder they had a billing outage.

You offload some load like pg connections from postgres to redis. Your pg shared buffers would also be available for other stuff.

Also if you can add amazon memory db to yor list of benchmarks, would also be interested to know more.

Is it not just Redis that AWS offers as a managed service?


Its Redis api but different internals.


no wonder my builds are all failing..


Something I've wanted to comment on this as well. It's best to use render_template() when rendering the views so it doesn't tangle w/ a lot of python controller logic.


I've been using my own audit trigger for 3 years now.

https://github.com/cmabastar/audit-trigger

It uses the old and tested http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Audit_trigger_91plus

but with JSONB instead of HSTORE, and automatically creates partitioned tables by month (Requires PG11+).


curious to know what instance type are you using for AWS? Are they i3 instances?
