DINOv2 is a powerful AI model from Meta AI that learns to understand images without needing labeled data, using self-supervised learning. It was trained on 142 million images and creates strong visual features that work well for many tasks like image classification, depth estimation, and segmentation without extra fine-tuning. You can use its pretrained models easily with simple classifiers, saving time and effort. DINOv2 is efficient, scalable, and performs better than many other models, making it great for building versatile computer vision applications quickly and accurately. It’s open-source and ready to use with PyTorch.

🔖 How Ukraine’s killer drones are beating Russian jamming | Hacker News #pinboard#warfare
As an engineer, I am fascinated by it all. As a human, I am horrified that we democratized violence on this scale.
A missile worth perhaps a million dollars can kill maybe 12 or 20 people. But for one million dollars, you can buy 10,000 drones, put four grenades on each, and they will kill 1,000 or even 2,000 people or destroy 200 tanks.
