remove remainders of append-only support by ThomasWaldmann · Pull Request #8798 · borgbackup/borg
Some features like append-only repositories rely on a server-side component that enforces them (because that shall only be controllable server-side, not client-side).

Show HN: AI game animation sprite generator (Score: 150+ in 1 day)

Comments: https://readhacker.news/c/6vHJp
I tried to build AI game animation generator last year ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item/id=40395221), a lot of people were interested, but it failed, mainly because the technology was not good enough.
1 year passed, there were a lot of developments in video/image generation. I tried it again, I think it works super well now. Actually beyond my expectation.
You can generate all kinds of game character animation sprites with only 1 image.
1, upload your image of your character
2, choose the action you want
3, generate!
Support basic actions like Run, Jump, Punch and complicated ones like: Shoryuken, Spinning kick, etc.
High quality sprite sheet will be directly generated to use in Unity and any game engine.
If you are an indie game developer, you don't need to high an artist or animator to develop you game.
For studios, it's 10x cost saving and 10x efficiency as no more creating animations for 100 NPCs 100 times.
Please check it out, looking forward to your feedback!

Hi all,
I was wondering what books/courses/projects one might do to learn CUDA programming.
(To be frank, the main reason is a lot of companies I'd wish to work for require CUDA experience -- this shouldn't change your answers hopefully, just wanted to provide some context )
