If you do not see some ‘ information, to see his face, can you guess their age? For example, Vivian CHOW, Pan Yin Tze, Meng Ting wei, also really hard to guess, they just like the one from the upper cave out of hundreds of years of cultivation, is still so young. Is there a software to identify their real age? Based on facial recognition to determine age Face.com can you guess?

Face.com API to scan photos of the latest updates identify the maximum and minimum age, taking an estimated value, is not very precise, but also make sure you get the age at which stage. Now developed two Facebook apps, users can scan photographs and mark also offers developer API, allows developers to use their facial recognition technology in its application.

Face.com CEO Gil Hirsch told Venturebeat reporter said in an interview:

“After we evaluated software through a large amount of data to tell you, what makes a person younger or aging, not like other applications, identifying whether a person younger or aging. We are to judge someone’s age based on facial structure as a whole. Human height or facial softness will differ with age, children’s faces are round and soft, and to our age, face began to drop and loose. Applications can pass the wrinkles, other differences such as smoothness features to determine the age of a person’s age. Judgment accuracy depends on how big a person looks is rather than how big is their true age, API based on image quality and also a person looks like in photographs, and so on provide a confidence interval of judge the accuracy of the age, but adult age are relatively difficult to determine, especially celebrities. ”

Suddenly think of female stars referred to above, it seems that this does not apply to the software in their possession.

Face.com hope their facial recognition technology into other applications, to restrict certain content to minors. Such as Face.com of API can implantation Netflix application in the, dang user open application of when, on on they of facial for scan, if found is a minor people, on prohibited they watch some content, this is company future development of direction and let people fear of local, dang someone entered a home store of when, a camera on can scan a personal of facial, under they of age show different of advertising.

Face.com said software has updated the API, using the new recognition algorithm, the accuracy improves 30%. Last update is complete, open to all developers. Has been developed by developers using the API an application called Age of Meter, can be found in the AppStore now. But there’s not much point, just an entertainment, when Obama and Justin Bieber’s photos displayed on the about age.

Other similar software development companies including Cognitec, development of FaceVACS, there is Bayometric, developed the FaceIt Face Recognition, of course, Google Android 4, Apple patents submitted facial recognition technology in the last year.

However, determine age recognition also needs to be strengthened.

Comparison next February and March data we can find, JSP (beyond Python and Perl rose from 10th to 8th place) and Pl/sql (beyond the Ruby,Lisp,t-SQL,Pascal,VB.NET increased from 17 to 12) have the most outstanding performance. JSP application does not know mean HTML5? PL-SQL do not know why so much. I concern about Delphi is still ranked 11, new xe2 did not bring much change.

TIOBE ranking for March was finally released, I would look at the top 20 data well

Nothing just stared at the phone playing games children’s shoes, recently playing “Draw Something (you I guess)” how? Saying now that humans have no way to prevent “I guess you”, draw will not draw to play this, play playing with sth Play a new meaning, such as detective stories recently fans in the watercress on you I guess “upgrade” you draw various clues detective stories described, like other fans like to see reasoning novel answers to inference. And the theme of many online activities, this “I guess you” reasoning version of joy so, people have, like to see detective stories you submit, you don’t try?

If you do not draw OK, if you don’t see the reasoning Sorry

“I guess you” recent blockbuster, this social games require you to come with friends or random parter cooperation arrangements for you to complete the game. English words from three options, select a painting of a painting, to a friend guess what words, guess both coins sth Never on the ordinary road faithful douban upgrade version as the game quickly, figured out this upgraded version of detective stories of lovers: you can draw any detective stories in any form-related elements, and other members can reply to guess the screen refers to the reasoning of a fiction, authors will be announced in due course answer. Detective stories-lovers is the natural enemy of “play”, to prevent “play through”, if the landlord has confirmed the correct answer in reply need to be in the left corner of the screen with a red pen played a red hook, so don’t want to “play” children’s shoes were on reservations to see reply below. Among the specific game, general users at work the following tips work “Japanese” or “Europe”.

“I guess you” than the game relaxed, if you really “painting is incompetent” or “too lazy to paint”, you can directly drop photos, cartoons, photos, illustrations, sth This is not strictly limited, but at the same time the game rules are simple, but the threshold is level, after all, not everyone is familiar with and interested in the content. If you accept incompetence, lack interest, reasoning novels even masters such as dongyeguiwu, and Agatha is unheard of, turn left then go back out sth Because you probably yunliwuli for a long time a plan for what we are.

　　Classic cannot afford to hurt, I guess the no survivors several times

About detective stories, loved to be wealthy in knowledge, people know, so most of the degree of difficulty depends not only on the topic of rote memorization painter, expression, creativity, also depends on whether the answer is quite a lot of people know it, after all, if the novel itself rather obscure little is known, even if your paintings and vivid, there is nothing “preemptive answer quickly without”. So, some classic reasoning novels of topics relative on easy was more, such as: black end above with white wrote has a “night” Word, superficial understanding reasoning novels of users also can guess out this is white night line under; a car driving in the of train, above wrote with “East”, almost are can guessed is Oriental Express murder case under; even only painting has a cup beer on has users easily guess out is beer murder case under sth sth Classic easy to guess, naturally on the chances are more likely to be selected to become a riddle by rote memorization, one of the most popular is no survivors, Agatha, a number of users chose this dickent very strong works of painting. Which has graffiti type of, such as “a strokes a ring, wrote Shang ‘ island ‘, island Middle painting personal, next to wrote Shang ‘ X10 ‘, and in this 10 a people above with red pen playing a fork fork”; also has straight type, figure in the with copy way posted has 10 a printing subsection Ann child of image, this actually-in has book in the “is a printing subsection Ann small boy” of nursery rhymes; has comics type of, a seat Island, a House, House inside directly playing has 10 a fork fork; also has realism style of, first row 10 a people of symbol, Second row of nine would hang a left, third row left eight sth Finally all hanging out, the author complained about “hand painted” sth

　　In addition to the reasoning, we can play something else

The upgraded version of fun, but limitation is that only like detective stories-popular “small circle”, some very beautiful very creative, but not reason fans may not know where to start. For example, there is a picture of one little sad lost classical portraits of European noble men in white, the portrait itself is beautiful and full of dickent, but people who have not read the novel in basic guess, the picture from being regarded as a historical detective stories of the first name for the daughter of a detail, “this is a portrait of the man. One wore a velvet CAP, tight shirt wearing a SLIT in the late 15th century by men. About 35 or 36 years old, thin, bearded man blew very clean. Full of gems on his collar, is wearing a ring on his little finger of the right hand. But he has not looked at the ring and looked at a vanity “, there are translations of a wide spread is not also put this picture on the cover of sth Based on this, many netizens propose according to the different topics of the reasoning is not too cold, “I guess you” you can launch more different version–”we can play something else” “in Tang dynasty and Song dynasty to guess words such as topics, recently du Fu was not very red” “can also guess the film and television stars or, that audiences are more” sth

On April 6, Black Duck Software, Inc. published a very detailed report, entitled “Open Source By The Numbers” (the speaker is Rich Sands), and after reading. The survey found that today’s most active is the programming language c/c + +, followed by Java,Python,JavaScript and other programming languages, as shown in the following figure:

On April 6, Black Duck Software, Inc. published a very detailed report, entitled “Open Source By The Numbers” (the speaker is Rich Sands), and after reading.

The survey found that today’s most active is the programming language c/c + +, followed by Java,Python,JavaScript and other programming languages, as shown in the following figure:

Can be seen from above, bottom left circular pie chart of pale blue fan-shaped area is the Python programming language. So, why do we want kids to learn Python, programming language instead of learning Java and c/c + +? The final conclusions of the investigation report is: “the New live projects trending towards Python, PHP, JavaScript and away from C-family languages”, meaning that, a new tendency of active research projects are (trending towards) using Python,PHP and JavaScript programming, and away from (away From) the c family of programming languages.

In a sense, programming of Python modules are software development’s major achievements over the past decade. United Kingdom “pie” preferred Python programming is based on small computers, we should pay enough attention to. In fact, Python editing environments of “very good”, is very good and easy “addiction” (one stick). Children like to play in learning, not force. …… I was upset, so far not found a Python friend.

Chinese parents often hear that Python (Python) programming, kids away from this stuff. This is a big misunderstanding. Please help me to explain.

New Mac OS x (ID Mountain Lion) and Windows 8 is already in the global test, although very different to each other, there is a commonality: combination of design for smartphones, tablets, and features, attach them on the desktop and laptop. Does this mean that Apple and Microsoft in the eye, the computer actually has become a large smart phone? These new upgrades for what does IT mean?

Outside of the operating system view, function more like a Smartphone, Microsoft go faster than Apple. Windows 8 square of interface directly from Windows Phone 7, it significantly for the touch screen for, instead of a mouse and keyboard. Weight reducing the familiar Windows interface.

Once you enter the box interface, which is in the Metro, the entire operating system change will happen. Metro was originally designed for mobile phones, but are more flat panel in Windows 8. Metro shows that appear in the Windows 8 Microsoft’s unified Windows interface across all platforms. The result, it is different from previous Windows Mobile, then Microsoft’s mobile interface design and similar to the desktop version of Windows.

Apple’s change in a Mountain Lion is not large, but, like Microsoft, Apple is trying to make the desktop, notebook looks and works like a smart phone. Originally available only to program for iOS now introduced in Mac OS x. Big change is that Mountain Lion consolidates iCloud, sets of data can be synchronized on all Apple devices.

In terms of mobility, Apple more than Microsoft’s leading, these features can be implanted in the operating system, while keeping the system aiming to desktops and notebooks. Main elements of the Mac OS x there is no big change, but with the iOS are some consolidation. Windows 8 is different, it does not look like a desktop or laptop operating system, is not optimized for any one of them.

IT procurement, upgrade Mac OS x will not be much impact. While Apple hardware companies are becoming popular, but still is not a standard on many occasions, many of the IT procurement does not buy the product. Does have a lot of iPad in the enterprise, Mac notebooks and desktops, the new design will have a slight advantage, as it consolidates iCloud.

Windows 8 transformation for IT has been mixed. Good news is the Metro is a headache for IT, support issues, bad is the second Metro program compatibility with existing enterprise. The good news is that Windows 8 cores can also be used in Windows 8 tablet, enterprises can more easily deploy and manage Tablet. Eventually, Windows 8 kernel used in Windows 8 tablet. With a single tool, in the context of Windows 8, IT deployed desktops, laptops, mobile devices eventually will be easier.
