Classifying Bicycle Infrastructure Using On-Bike Street-Level Images
While cycling offers an attractive option for sustainable transportation, many potential cyclists are discouraged from taking up cycling due to the lack of suitable and safe infrastructure. Efficiently mapping cycling infrastructure across entire cities is necessary to advance our understanding of how to provide connected networks of high-quality infrastructure. Therefore we propose a system capable of classifying available cycling infrastructure from on-bike smartphone camera data. The system …

Unpopular opinion on software development
Yesterday, I came across CI cultists.
They were preaching one should merge in main multiple times a day.
Quite frankly, I associate this behaviour to lab rats compulsively clicking the button to get gratifications (please don't do that to rats).
I think developers should refrain from becoming merge junkies. Code review is essential for good code quality. Automated tests suck at detecting logical errors, security vulnerabilities, and even decent code coverage.
Also, I believe pair programming is absolutely not a strategy to allow continuous integration. Everybody involved in the development process is drunk on their own bullshit reasons they made up to justify their poor design. Either the code review should be done by someone else, or the developers should sober up for a fortnight before code reviewing their own code.
PS: I am a software developer. I get drunk on my own bullshit as well.
