Do you support the seasonal / annualized quarterly estimated payments tax form? I used that for many years for fluctuating freelance income, but I’ve not seen an app that supports it.
do you mean the schedule C? if so, yes we generate that for you
Unfortunately, most people don't even know about it.
I also want to support metadata filtering etc. but having some trouble with storing and indexing JSON through rocksDB. I've made some progress but not really there yet.
https://www.thingybase.com/ It’s a home inventory app! I’ve been working on this and using it for almost two years now in tiny little scraps of time I have between my day job and raising 2 kids. I’ve embraced the “half-baked” aspect of shipping a project like this by drawing silly stick figures for all the illustrations. It’s just been so much fun building and using it. If you use it, don’t worry about me abandoning…
I bought a paid of Wahl Senior hair clippers from the US and I figured all I'd need was a step down transformer (240v to 110v) for it to work and boy was I mistaken! Apparently you need to also take into account the frequency of the current. To cut the long story short, all my early search for a solution was leading me to overpriced "kits" on ebay and the likes. All you have to do is type "frequency 60hz clippers" to…
Curious if you know the potential efficiency loss of converting back and forth from AC to DC and back to AC again? I assume a lot of energy is wasted in heat? Do clippers use so much energy that it may be cheaper in a short time to simply buy new clippers? $40 for conversion hardware already, it's only a few more bucks to get a decent set of clippers that match your new country's grid.
I didn’t study power electronics so I’m not in a position to confidently answer your first question however I’m sure if you do an online search you’ll find additional information addressing it. I found an article [0] that goes a bit more into depth, have a gander and see if it’s of any help.
For some odd reason, the popular hair clipper manufacturers, who are based in the USA/Canada, have a smaller selection of professional devices that they produce for the global market. So if you’re a barber in the UK for instance, you either have to wait for them to introduce a global variant of your desired clippers or you buy the cordless version if available. That’s why the conversion kit is a godsend if you find yourself in that situation.

Separate game code written in a DSL will be parsed and run on the server. A SDK is provided to help the client side communicate with the game / app server.
A dirty PONG demo at https://dev.byog.live/games/pong
Very early SDK at https://github.com/byog-live/byog-sdk

A playground was under development to help devs understand the platform and this is where I burnt out https://play.byog.live/
It's been a few months since I last worked on it. Sigh.
I think it's a little bit beyond "half" baked, but I built a thing I call Logsuck last year: https://github.com/jackbister/logsuck The idea is to have a free Splunk alternative which you can set up with just one binary. I use Splunk at work and love it, but it just doesn't seem like a product for solo developers (I can't even find a pricing page on splunk.com), and the primary free alternative, the ELK stack, seems a…
My main problem making full use of structured logging is the lack of good visualization tool (ie: something that is not a big cluster of stuff :) ). So this look very nice. Maybe you can combine https://vector.dev that is actually a good shipper and transformation of logs and focus in the visualization and integration? Anyway I hope yours get very good. Will be nice if the whole setup is just a simple go exe and that…
Wasn't really happy with any of the existing solutions and ability to collect and export both metrics and logs is just brilliant.
A birdfeeder, a security camera, and this python script: https://github.com/ctrager/opencv_py/blob/master/red_yellow_... I want to record visits to my birdfeeder but not all the visits. 99% of the visitors are sparrows, which, no offense to any sparrows reading this, are dull colored. I want to capture the cardinals, bright red birds. The python script monitors the video stream and starts recording when the image get…
Sparrow here. You will be hearing from my avian attorney. In earnest, nice work! I recently bought what looks like the same feeder and have pondered making something similar. What camera are you using for it? Note that you are sharing your user/pass and server address on the local server, although with a 10.x.x.x target I expect that's behind your router.
The other two:
The cheap Wyze cameras which special software that gives access to the RTSP stream, but the stream is so jerky it creates too many false alarms to be useful. If you just want to have a cheap security camear, though, these Wyze cameras are fun.
I've also tried using a Reolink camera with Neolink to get at the RTSP stream, but it wasn't super stable. Missing frames. I wonder if that's because my laptops are old and slow. I don't know.
I've also tried using a Raspberry Pi with a camear. Get the camera that you can focus. Here's a video I got with the that combo https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rMmap4fWgj8iTAYCo5eNaTDMLlO... Using this script: https://github.com/ctrager/opencv_py/blob/master/hummingbird...

That's really neat! What is the hardware set up - how does it interface with the camera?

Someone actually linked me a Kickstarter of this very concept the other day: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mybirdbuddy/bird-buddy-...
Thinking of building something in the Education space for Kids.
Any Ideas would be welcome.
