Niyanun Lake

Niyanun Lake is a glacial lake on the Mistik Creek chain in the Hudson Bay drainage basin in the Northern Region of Manitoba, Canada. It sits in the Churchill River Upland portion of the Midwestern Canadian Shield forests which consist of mixed deciduous and coniferous trees.[1] The region around the lake consists of rocky parallel ridges with poorly drained areas of muskeg and irregular stony shorelines due to intense glaciation.[2] The lake is situated on the well known "Mistik Creek Loop", a remote canoe route 95 km (59 mi) in length which can be paddled in four days.[3][4]

Etymology

Niyanun is Cree for "five".[6] It is notable for being one of fourteen lakes on Mistik Creek named in numeric order in Cree.[1] The fourteen lakes listed by their Cree names with the English translations in order from south to north are:

gollark: Grocery store automation might actually be a really hard case, since - as well as packages being non-rigid and in weird shapes/sizes - current grocery store designs involve customers physically interacting with products and moving them around and such.
gollark: You could just operate on a bounding box containing the entire thing, if you have a way to get that from images.
gollark: I'm not sure this is true. It should still be more efficient to have a *few* humans "preprocess" things for robotics of some kind than to have it entirely done by humans.
gollark: Those are computationally hard problems, but I would be really surprised if there wasn't *some* fast heuristic way to do them.
gollark: Except that people are somewhat inconsistent about how much inconvenience/time/whatever is worth how much money.
