@patricio Cool stuff, right?!

@caseyg @kissane @darius this sounds like oily tupperware feels

@aworkinglibrary if explaining and preparing for things were doing things i would get so much done

Huh. Just had a wild, cascading run of great ideas for a work project I finished like 7 years ago.

Weekend project: tinkering with cloud removal from Landsat stacks. Here the top two images are inputs and the bottom is output from them alone.

It’s strictly pixelwise and n→1 (deep set–style), so it scales to any stack depth. Notice it fills the nodata with the training set average color, and the cloud overlap with a sort of polite fog.

Sentinel-1 radar of Helene last night – 23:37 UTC, 19:45 EDT. The swath is about 250 km (150 mi) wide.

Sar autoencoder fun (central east coast of Madagascar).

@jes5199 Suddenly dizzyingly homesick.

@sgillies Do I have to go back and listen from the beginning?

I have to finish my damn project so I can try to get interviewed on one of the big pansharpening podcasts.

Friends fear he’s messing with reaction–diffusion systems again. https://xoc.s3.amazonaws.com/also/rd.mp4

A little unexpected good news: I spent 90 seconds looking into the thing in the news and it turns out it’s actually really good evidence of the veracity of an opinion I already had.

If I want to learn the basics of EE, maybe getting a ham license, what text should I use to get a solid grasp of the principles?

– I am generally familiar with software and specifically some signal processing. It’s the EM stuff I need to learn.

– Naturally a lot of this is best learned by doing. I’m asking about the parts best learned by reading.

– I can borderline pass a practice test for the lowest ham license today by bluffing and light memorization. But I want the actual knowledge.

@KalofXeno Incredible shot.
