Are there any implementations of camera based traffic safety networks that are actually kind of good, in terms of privacy, responsible data handling, and effectiveness?

[-] Andy@programming.dev 8 points 2 years ago

Glad you have it working. This may also work:

_stfu () {
  shift words
  (( CURRENT-=1 ))
  _normal -P
}
compdef _stfu stfu

OK, I see some differences between your two screenshots, but what's the relevance to my comment?

I have trouble with both, but more experience with GIMP. I can't stand all the little tool buttons with no text. I want the name of each tool always visible on its button.

I have the same problem with Inkscape.

Ooh I haven't seen this one. Anyone have a comment on this vs the KleverNotes project? I think that's the name.

I'm not off Google Maps either, but the closest to replacing it for me is Organic Maps, FWIW.

I don't have the OS to play with this, but it looks fun!

From Wikipedia:

Prograph is a visual, object-oriented, dataflow, multiparadigm programming language that uses iconic symbols to represent actions to be taken on data. Commercial Prograph software development environments such as Prograph Classic and Prograph CPX were available for the Apple Macintosh and Windows platforms for many years but were eventually withdrawn from the market in the late 1990s. Support for the Prograph language on macOS has recently reappeared with the release of the Marten software development environment.

I think pipeline-oriented tooling is relevant enough for this community (is this thing on?).

A PRQL query is a linear pipeline of transformations

It compiles to plain SQL, but queries generally start with a table.

Each line of the query is a transformation of the previous line’s result. This makes it easy to read, and simple to write.

PRQL consists of a curated set of orthogonal transformations, which are combined together to form a pipeline. That makes it easy to compose and extend queries. The language also benefits from modern features, such syntax for dates, ranges and f-strings as well as functions, type checking and better null handling.

I'm adding it to the sidebar under practice.

I was alerted to it via this nice blog post with a solution in Factor.

I'll put up at least a few Factor solutions of my own at a tiny repo, and am happy to answer any questions or take any advice about them.

Here's another link to the challenges

...

Factor ... scales horribly both with respect to lines of code per word (function) and the amount of local state (number of variables). This is because local state is manipulated on a stack which you have to keep track of in your head. ...

So instead you're constantly having to come up with neat composable abstractions to fold up the state. This is the sort of thing that makes code elegant, loosely coupled and small in any language. ...

Advent of Code 2023 (programming.dev)

It's just about time! Huzzah!

I'll collect links and resources here:

I'll probably only last the first few days, optimistically a week, but plan on submitting my solutions in Factor to the AoC community, and I'll link any of those here in the comments.

I made my account with them early on. I signed up to subscription content to eventually get around to reading, using that address. I signed up for other services, using that address, where access to that address was my only recovery option. I joined IRL community interest groups with that address.

Then I spent a long time without checking it, and they deactivated the account and I've lost all data and messages sent there.

And lost my discord account, too. Even though I have the correct discord credentials, discord decided to lock me out unless I can confirm I still have that tuta email address.

I just want to add that for Debian with a rolling, up-to-date experience, Siduction does that nicely.

APK/Alpine is great! And the Edge repos are well stocked.

Chimera Linux seems to be using even newer apktools than Alpine, not sure what the deal with that is. But that distro is still in early stages with limited repos for now.

Pacman/makepkg/Arch is great too, and an obvious consideration for your usage, curiously omitted from your post.

TLDR: It happens (by default) for calls between you and someone in your contacts list, because it's a p2p connection. It can be avoided by disabling p2p calls.

The reason Telegram leaks a user’s IP addresses during a call is that, by default, Telegram uses a peer-to-peer connection between callers “for better quality and reduced latency,” Telegram spokesperson Remi Vaughn told TechCrunch.

“The downside of this is that it necessitates that both sides know the IP address of the other (since it is a direct connection). Unlike on other messengers, calls from those who are not your contact list will be routed through Telegram’s servers to obscure that,” Vaughn said.

To avoid leaking your IP address, you have to go to Telegram’s Settings > Privacy and Security > Calls, and then select “Never” in the Peer-to-Peer menu, as shown below.

It is possible to argue with a dollar.

It's like yaml but simple, consistent, untyped, and you never need to escape any characters, ever.

Types and validation aren't going to be great unless they're in the actual code anyway.
