solving computer vision problems (of robots)
https://github.com/robocomp/robocomp - "RoboComp is an open-source Robotics framework providing the tools to create and modify software components that communicate through public interfaces. Components may require, subscribe, implement or publish interfaces in a seamless way. Building new components is done using two domain specific languages, IDSL and CDSL. With IDSL you define an interface and with CDSL you specify how the component will communicate with the world. With this information, a code generator creates C++ and/or Python sources, based on CMake, that compile and execute flawlessly. When some of these features have to be changed, the component can be easily regenerated and all the user specific code is preserved thanks to a simple inheritance mechanism."
thresholds and hardcoded numbers seemed the same whilst coding up the libraries for robocomp, so why not make opensource library availbe
target audience:

http://opendetection.com/basic_structures.html
Trainers (implements the train) (virtual class)
Detectors (detect scene, detect omni) - 2d detector / HOG / cascade / facerecogniser / cad recogniser
Detection (result of detection)
Frame Generator (grabs image from cam, gets point cloud from rgbd sensor, can use files/image files and pcd (pcl))
obtain detection

while(frameGenerator.isValid() && cv::waitKey(2) ! =27) {
// why is wait needed? he wonders. (i dont know either)
}

live coding session typos shows curious translation problems. Spanish programmer. "Valide" "remo/remove". i was afraid these mispellings were encoded the same way "color" is americanised in many code things. fortunately they were merely errors. i wonder how people who speak a different language understand these concepts and words?

02:30 pm Legalese.io: smart contracts, dumb lawyers, and you Level 3, Dalton Hall Meng Weng Wong (Legalese.io) Talk of 20 minutes

humans use language as tool
poets, writers... and lawyers
lawyers as ancient programmers > with antiquated tools... 20 year old tools, 200 year old practices....
pseudocode
why not Code = Law, Law = Code?
both code and law have similar notions of design patterns, similar reliance on borrowed libraries
how to solve isomorphism problem?
what if..... it could also check if it was illegal?
we live in a world where watson has learnt medicine, go beats human, why not AI to law?
formalisation / isomorphism / etc
see: the british nationality act as a logic program 1986
