Three.js: How to create a crosshair that stay fixed at the center of the scene

I'm using video.js https://videojs.com/ and https://videojs-vr.netlify.app/ to play a VR video. Video.js with the help of videojsvr can do this. Videojs-vr supports Three.js and can access three.js objects using this

var player = videojs('my-video');

player.vr().camera;
player.vr().scene;
player.vr().renderer;

I want to add a crosshair or any dot/circle in the middle of the video/scene that stay fixed even moving the screen within the 360 video. How can I achieve that?

I have the following code

// Add crosshair
addCrosshair() {
    var self = this;
    var player = self.get('player');

    const cursor = new THREE.Mesh(
        new THREE.RingBufferGeometry(0.2, 0.08, 30),
        new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({ color: "#FFFFFF", side: THREE.DoubleSide })
      );
      cursor.position.x = 0;
      cursor.position.y = 0;
      cursor.position.z = -8;

      player.vr().scene.add(player.vr().camera)
      player.vr().camera.add(cursor);
}

It seems to be doing what I need and the dot/small circle stays fixed in the center of the video/scene. However, it affects other three.js object I've placed in the video. It messes up with the rendering of other objects. I've got a theory that it happens because I'm adding the cursor/dot in another camera and then add it to the scene.

I've tried to do add it as another child of my other three.js objects. Although that seem to work too at first, if I move around the view within the 360 video, the cursor/dot doesn't stay fixed in the scene.

Hopefully my question make sense. If you don't have experience using videojs and video-vr.js, can you just help me to position a three.js object/crosshair at the center of the scene no matter where you move the camera view within the scene? Thank you so much in advance! Would be a big help to me.

ValueError: X has 10 features, but LinearRegression is expecting 1 features as input

So, I am trying to predict the model but its throwing error like it has 10 features but it expacts only 1. So I am confused can anyone help me with it? more importantly its not working for me when my friend runs it. It works perfectly fine dose anyone know the reason about it? cv = KFold(n_splits = 10) all_loss = [] for i in range(9): # 1st for loop over polynomial orders poly_order = i X_train = make_polynomial(x, poly_order) loss_at_order = [] # initiate a set to collect loss for CV for train_index, test_index in cv.split(X_train): print('TRAIN:', train_index, 'TEST:', test_index) X_train_cv, X_test_cv = X_train[train_index], X_test[test_index] t_train_cv, t_test_cv = t[train_index], t[test_index] reg.fit(X_train_cv, t_train_cv) loss_at_order.append(np.mean((t_test_cv - reg.predict(X_test_cv))**2)) # collect loss at fold all_loss.append(np.mean(loss_at_order)) # collect loss at order plt.plot(np.log(al...

Sorting large arrays of big numeric stings

I was solving bigSorting() problem from hackerrank: Consider an array of numeric strings where each string is a positive number with anywhere from to digits. Sort the array's elements in non-decreasing, or ascending order of their integer values and return the sorted array. I know it works as follows: def bigSorting(unsorted): return sorted(unsorted, key=int) But I didnt guess this approach earlier. Initially I tried below: def bigSorting(unsorted): int_unsorted = [int(i) for i in unsorted] int_sorted = sorted(int_unsorted) return [str(i) for i in int_sorted] However, for some of the test cases, it was showing time limit exceeded. Why is it so? PS: I dont know exactly what those test cases were as hacker rank does not reveal all test cases. source https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73007397/sorting-large-arrays-of-big-numeric-stings
