    Neofetch also stood out as an unusually long bash script (top 1% of bash scripts, I guess). I always refer to its 11592(!) lines of code when I hear people say “bash scripts should…

    Ask HN: Do you have examples of (very) convoluted APIs?

    I once contemplated an API where I would convert audio into a video, upload it to YouTube, let their Content ID detection run and then get their detected artist(s) as output, proba…

    That sounds a bit like subtitles, or Timed Text. There are simple formats (just a text and the moment it should appear) but some formats support changing the position, color, font……

    This is one of the first results. The third, if I remember correctly. I got this running yesterday (Sunday), and I wanted to write the blog post first to test if there was any inte…

    I played with that too before. `ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "select='gt(scene,0.4)'" -vsync vfr frame-%2d.jpg` (from the repo pforret/filmpace) For this project, I want to find an A.I.…

    Thanks for the tip! I will add GPT to the mix to clean up the speech and title data.

    My article talks about daily usage. For long distance travel, obviously I charge to higher % and I use Superchargers. Although even in those circumstances, I never reach 400km betw…

    This article was inspired by colleagues who are choosing their first EV and use the EPA range as an actual distance. I have colleagues that live > 100km from work. I wanted to poin…

    Actually I wasn't referring to ICE, just that the climate influenced the realistic daily range too. But your remark is very interesting, I would have thought that combustion did no…

    Tesla advises 90% max, other sources advise charging to 80% to save battery performance. I use 80% for day-to-day, 90% for longer day trips, 100% for international travel. [tesla.c…
