Readit NewsMark Rober has a new product where they ship a new robot every 2 months. They give you the basic instructions on how to build/program it but the idea is that you take that knowledge and then expand on it yourself by adding features. My daughter is still a little too young for it so I haven't used it personally. The biggest issue is that it is a subscription and not a one time purchase.

And here is a brief video explaining how it expands beyond the normal "premade robot kit." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TtdOdUi9b_s
Boo! hiss
This utility doesn't require the original non-cropped area nor any other information about the picture that was taken. You could scrape a bunch of pictures from Instagram or Facebook and batch process away.
And the game selection early on was pretty lousy too. Sonic was only fun for a while.
People are doing amazing things with game gear hardware as of late, though. All of that addressed spectacularly.
We'll never figure out how to do it because it's unethical to experiment on humans. But even more damning than that, we don't have a good theory of mind that explains criminality. It's all half-assed woowoo nonsense meant to bolster this or that political ideology.
Ah, yes, we never do that. All of our advancements in medical and psychological sciences just pop into existence out of no where!

Right. And your comments here aren't pushing an agenda at all. Definitely not a bigoted, inhumane agenda.
It would. If only we knew how to do that.
There are places in this country where attitudes develop for many years, decades even, before that person is ever incarcerated. By the time that happens, these attitudes are quite immutable, and they see any gentleness as vulnerability. They're adept at lying, exploitation, and have no qualms about hurting others. What sort of rehabilitation do you even think is possible? Where do you expect this million person army of rehabilitators to come from exactly, to be hired in these prisons? When they start getting raped and killed, will you just double down? Under what principles, exactly, do you expect the rehabilitations to operate? Do you ever remember seeing some study or research that concluded "If steps A, B, and C are performed on convicts who meet the empirical criteria of X, Y, and Z" then they will become upstanding members of society"?
We'll never figure out how to do it until we actually start trying to rehabilitate people.

This is text book bigotry.
It would greatly benefit society to have prisoners be rehabilitated. It's currently just a vicious cycle that produces hardened, repeat offenders that prison companies can make money off, money that comes from tax payers.
Dead Comment
When SPDY, the precursor of HTTP/2, got introduced, it needed a mechanism to signal that within TLS, a different protocol (SPDY instead of HTTP/1.1) was spoken. That mechanism was originally NPN. I don't know the exact details and motivation, but eventually people seem to have decided that NPN wasn't exactly what they wanted, and they invented a new mechanism called ALPN.
Now, that was a decade ago (the ALPN RFC is from 2014), so the question is: why do we still have NPN code in OpenSSL? I don't think anyone uses it any more. Shouldn't it have been removed long ago?
To put this in a larger context: it appears to me that OpenSSL still has a strong tendency to bloat. Heartbleed was essentially a "we added this feature, although noone knows why we need it" kind of bug, but it doesn't look to me they've changed. I still get the feeling that OpenSSL adds many features that they probably just should ignore (e.g. obscure "not invented here"-type algorithms), and they don't remove features that are obsolete.

I wonder how many memory leaks it'll take for OpenSSL to finally get their act together or for major projects to drop it entirely.
