Nice! Thanks for the research and testing. Going to go check these out. Im glad someone is working on efficiency and power consumption.

Sounds good @ddtirc.bsky.social I’ll clean up the repo and make it public πŸ‘

Instead of jumping to #ML it helps to try to visualise what the computer sees. Sometimes simpler solutions become available, like looking for circles of similar size within the same horizontal plane. It will be interesting to compare to what an ML algorithm identifies.

Well done. This is the way. I’m now following πŸ˜ƒ

Thanks much! If it’s useful, I created a list from your starter pack to help organise posts.
I’ve never shared one before. Hopefully it works!

Hey! 1 year later so I guess it’s okay πŸ˜ƒ
That’s encouraging

Don’t do it! He will win and become drunk with power!

OK he probably deserves to win. I think I actually first heard of Bluesky on one of his YouTube shorts. Good luck Pirate Lord!

I downloaded this and will give it a read. I like the premise πŸ˜ƒ

There have been cases of 2fa bypass. I would keep a strong password.
A password consisting of multiple random words (4-6) generally offers better security than shorter auto-gen passwords.
Random words are easy for humans to remember while maintaining high entropy.

I love this movie. The language and especially the vocabulary in use reminds me that I could probably describe things better than β€žinterestingβ€œ or β€žawesomeβ€œ πŸ˜‚
I’m going to watch this tonight. I think I have it on my Plex server.

Our cat was run over a few months ago so I grabbed an old raspberry pi 3 and an old Logitech webcam from the basement and coded a speed cam. I’m gathering some metrics on speeding and dangerous driving that we can share with the city to help get a real speed cam put in. Should I link the git repo?

HackThisSite HackThisSite.org is a free, safe and legal training ground for hackers to test and expand their ethical hacking skills with challenges, CTFs, and more.

In computer science I feel developers are often weakest in testing and security. If you code, I would recommend www.hackthissite.org which will teach you some of the traditional avenues for hacking. This will improve your coding and itβ€˜s fun! (For nerds)

The future of energy systems should be mixed renewable grids. This increases redundancy and reduces the need for additional storage, saving costs over time. Here is evidence using real world data. πŸ§ͺπŸ”ŒπŸ’‘β˜€οΈπŸ’¨πŸ”‹

The process of trying to build it should give one good insight. Do you know if they are documenting the process at all?

Following along! I love Star Trek but still feel all the modern star treks are missing the strong philosophical aspect of TNG. it may just be nostalgia though. If you’re writing new shows, keep it in mind for me would you! πŸ˜ƒ

I got to go and play on a quantum computer yesterday. Just a two qubit SPINQ device, but it was interesting to use some desktop, room temperature qubits!

It would be great fun to build one. It can’t be that hard right πŸ˜‚
