If we can avoid massive collective issues that would be appreciated as there is very little agency the individual has to address those and that helpless ess can often extend to the more solvable individual matters we all grapple with but also occasionally rise to conquer.

I would like to force my Luba 2 robotic mower to mow steeper terrain (almost 45 degrees). The main problem is wheel slipperiness. Current ideas:

some kind of net in that area for better grip
making wheels rougher (eg with nails).
rope that would constantly pull it uphill to counter force of gravity.

What about adding a weight on top to make it heavier?

I wanna build a fun NN that takes as input an image of your face, and outputs your predicted weight.

If the prediction is wrong, you enter the real answer and then it will use your face and your real weight for the next round of training

I just really want to know if it's possible to guess someone's weight by their face, and think it could be a fun exercise.

It'd also be fun to see what features it extracts at various layers (e.g. age, cheek sag, double chin, eye sink, etc.)

You'd probably want height in there as well

That would be interesting, although make-up would skew results.

Tinder being a great example of that

It appears i have upset my hip/ lower back and if I love wrong it refers pain into my knee and I can't bend it without laying down on my back and doing a minute of stretches to get it right again.

Then it's good for an hour or two before it happens again.

Fortunately I'm an Australian and can go to a dr and physio. Unfortunately I'm in PNG for work for 3 more weeks with none of that available
