A couple of points that I see people miss surprisingly often. I will pretend for the purposes of this post that I do not know how mRNA or DNA works and will not argue that until very recently we considered 75% of our DNA structure be junk.
What really surprises me is the fact that a lot of educated people trust 'science' blindly. So on to my first point. The original narrative regarding the current crisis is that we are dealing with an extremely trasmitable and deadly virus. As such we are facing the danger of collapsing the medicare system because intensive care units are simply not enough to handle the volume of cases. A disastrous situation, I agree. Fine! So let's have a vaccine. Let's combat 'future' (ie new) infections (cases) and completely disregard the 'present' situation at hand. Why should we bother with coming up with a treatment (medicine, antibodies or whatever) to keep people from entering intensive care? Our savior is only something that regards new cases alone. Until we come up with such a 'miracle' unfortunately people will die. This concludes the first point, the vaccine mania and the complete disregard for treatment. What sane person would see a 'conspiracy' here?
The second point. "The technology is so advanced that you noobs have no idea". Granted! Let's pretend I'm an ignorant noob. "The new mRNA and cDNA tech is effective and safe". How do you know? Let's entertain this idea for a while. Sure, we've got a tech that can produce a brand new vaccine in a matter of a couple of hours. All it takes is a gene-sequence typed on a keyboard which is then 'printed' in the bio-reactor and voila, the wonder is here! Ready to be injected into the human body, able to affect and modify sensitive cellular mechanics pretty much as you would type some code, compile it and load onto your chip, right? What a wonder! Who needs thorough testing after all? We have ruled over nature! No one will ever get sick by this 'curse' again or any of it's variations. One single recipe to rule over the 7.5Bn person diversity on this planet. Yes, because we have so advanced tech that we are standing at a point where we have a complete understanding to the very finest detail of cellular biology. Only if countries like Israel hadn't proven otherwise...
Trust the 'science', it IS safe. Not only we have a complete understanding to the very finest detail of cellular biology but we also have mastered time-travel. Yes, we have so advanced tech that allows us to time travel to the year 2030 A.D. and behold our wonder did not hurt anyone, ever! Who needs testing? We are so bright! What a time to be alive!
I guess we can now take our righteous seat right next to God! Hell, what am I saying we ARE Gods! Oh, sorry I forgot, we still gotta find that gene-sequence that beats death altogether. But worry not, our saviors are a few clicks away! But I digress... Forgive me.
What sane person would see a conspiracy in all the above? Hell, what 'educated' person with 'critical' thinking would dare to question the 'wonder'? We have so advanced tech, said the 'educated' Gods.
I'm confused, is it science we are talking about here or is it religion???
My understanding is that it generates parallel to the rgb information, a depth-map and segments encoded also in specific spectrum of colors. This removes the burden of heavy image processing (edge-detection, etc) which improves performance. The segments can be trained for classification.
It is very interesting to read how Hesiod defined the extinct species (size, anatomy, behaviour, etc) almost 3000 years ago and contrast it with modern research
The author at 17 years of age can understand academics and research. Has the skills and dedication to go through an exercise of reconstructing state-of-the-art.
I can't help but feel pride and hope for the future, both the author's and the world.
