If the point is to easily reconstruct geometry, then mimicking humans should mean using 3D imagery (same object seen from two eyes) to get a better idea of its shape. Wonder if that might some day become part of best practice in computer vision too.
> If CSS selectors needed only a few enhancements to compete with XPath
You may want to try ParslePy, it combines CSS/XPath functionality, allowing you to declaratively specify the selector paths in a JSON file.
I just made a PR to allow YAML over JSON, but not sure if Pip picked up on it yet.
It appears this is based on that cssselect library mentioned above, compiling CSS selectors to XPath. That is, performance should approximate XPath, while convenience should be higher.
What I find interesting about their sample data sets is the Social Graph one, which uses a model of data that afaik only the Chinese government would have access to: tying everything to a person's identity including where they've slept and how they've traveled.
They then demonstrate a sample query on this dataset, called 'connection mining', identifying people who have enough data in common with a given person.
Now, although the Datanami article does not particularly state the Beijing government as making use of TigerGraph's services, it does mention his clients as including 2 Chinese state-owned companies, State Grid and China Mobile.
Given it's been established his clientele includes Chinese state-owned companies and no-one but the Chinese government has the data described in this 'Social Graph' data set though, let's say this may have been made for Beijing. Sounds like they might be using this query to track dissidents by association.
Dunno if it's just me, but I read these Vue articles and all I see is a bunch of hypocrites with an identity crisis, criticizing React for fragmentation, Angular for having 'one Right Way'. So they're better than React for offering one Right Way, then they're better than Angular for offering fragmentation? I mean, jeez, pick one stance and stick with it.
