Show HN: Open-Source AI Racing Harness
10 by danAtElodin | 4 comments on Hacker News.
Hi I'm Dan from Elodin, making an open source real-time capable flight software simulation. For AI Grand Prix contestants, the wait for the Round 1 virtual qualifier simulation has been grueling. If you’re competing, check out our simulation harness to tide you over, built to match the published competition constraints and message format. It runs against real Betaflight, which we learned requires at least 1000 sensor samples per second to run real-time correctly. The competition warranted introducing a new feature to generate the camera sensor directly in the simulation loop. Typically people connect to Unreal or similar game engine to create a camera sensor, which works well but is very heavy. For the simple needs of this challenge, creating sample directly in the loop is very handy and easy to use. Happy to hear your feedback on this! While it's not fancy looking currently, it uses the Rust Bevy game engine, which should allow us to improve the visual fidelity quickly. We all should easily be able to shift our implementation to the published competition sim once it lands. Hope you enjoy and good luck!

I am looking for a generative model that can make a drawings based on an RPG campaign I had with my friends. The idea is to create consistent character designs of each character first (say ogre, mage, dragonborn) and then use those designs for panels that would be based on my inputs about the story (I have notes from a longer campaign). The models I know / tried are not consistent at all. They dont store the character design, so each panel is different in style (apart from those model that generate designs ripped off from Studio Ghibli). Is there any free or paid model that allows that?

I presume many here are not believers. So, for those who believe—and in the spirit of open and genuine curiosity—I’d love to know what made them change their minds.

Ask HN: How do you model temporarily invalid data structures
2 by escot | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Say you’re making a chess game. A valid board only has one piece per square, or zero. But, you have an algo that generates boards by moving pieces around and during that algo you may move a piece on top of another and then later decide to move one of them to get back to valid. Do you try to use some existing Board type and just avoid in your algo those invalid states (like by using a stack or some data structure to avoid iteratively moving pieces one at a time). Do you have a separate InvalidBoard type that allows multiple pieces per square? I think it’s context dependent but I’m curious how you’ve seen this handled in different ways.
