I live next to a school, so there's a low speed limit (30 km/h). Still, people drive like race drivers and the city hasn't ever responded to the residents' hopes of introducing a speed camera. I wanted to have some data on how many people speed, the max speed recorded, that sort of thing. Things the city should be doing after many complaints of dangerous driving and people being almost killed on zebra crossings. I ha…

I'd rather put up with the speeding than aasking for the government to intervene.

Ooh how edgy.

I have been working full-time for about 15 months on a product to store real-world entity-relations in a graph (using AI/ML for extraction). The idea is to extract entities and relations deterministically from text (using AI/ML for clues about type and position of entities in text). It is very much a work in progress with lots of commented out code which are just experiments. https://github.com/pixlie/PixlieAI

hey Sumit! Great seeing you here on and good luck!

Hey you, sorry I could not guess you from your username. Thanks a lot.

While looking for a job, I encountered the trouble that is called ATS. Nobody sees your resume if it is not 'approved' by an automated system. So I decided to build a tool to optimize my generic resume for a vacancy, ATS and company culture.

Although n=1, I do have the feeling it works ( but that could also be the IKEA coginive dissonance)

Continued working with my team to grow my granddaughter who at 15 months handles a spoon and fork to feed herself at each meal; drinks from a cup without assistance; can clean her face and understand everything she is told or asked (though sometimes with a devious smile makes what an adult might consider a poor choice.... She is testing her boundaries like she is supposed to do). I have learned how to and produced 6…

No, this is what Actual Life looks like once you get past 30.

Is that legal in your country? In mine (Netherlands) there are way too many people with doorbell camera aimed right at the street even though it's illegal to record a public space like that. Most folks are ignorant about it though, or think that surely the internet-connected gadget sold by some anonymous corporation won't be abused....

For private use you can film in public places in the Netherlands no?

I'm creating an infinite canvas that has all your organization's code and documentation on it. If you zoom in, you can see the code, if you zoom out you see the big picture. By giving everything a place on the map, it becomes easier to figure out your way through the landscape and understand the systems. Different modes can you show you different things: code age, authorship (bus-factor, is the person still with the…

We use IcePanel for a similar functionality but like all diagramming solutions it suffers if you don’t constantly feed it. If you can solve that problem you’re definitely on to something.

In between figuring out what to do after a decade of work on Micro ( https://github.com/micro ), I started a new project called Reminder which tries to provide a single clean app and API for the Quran, Hadith and names of Allah. Maybe some of you would find it beneficial. It tries to put English first since most of us are non Arabic speaking and cultural from the west. https://reminder.dev
