Ask HN: Diamond cutting – any other industries using optimization software?
2 by throwawaybutwhy | 0 comments on Hacker News.
Recently, I've dived into the rabbit hole of diamond cutting videos on Youtube. Turns out there are a bunch of companies (e.g. sarine - btw, an eyebrow-raising name if there ever was one) making hardware and software for the industry with rather advanced optimization algorithms. What are other niche verticals where optimization software is in widespread use? (Crude refineries aren't niche, and as far as I know, they are fond of linear programming)
