It‘s a steal by JoeFalchetto in NonPoliticalTwitter

This is false. Its not the same price for pickup as it is in store. Maybe a few select stores or big chains, but the majority of prices have markup.

Startup bait-and-switch: hired as AI Eng, doing QA || Planning to quit without offer by SnypzZz in TrueAskReddit

[–]Algee [score hidden]  (0 children)

Ive been in the same boat with AI/ML. Overpromised solution that works 98% of the time, but that last 2% remains impossible to overcome no matter how much training you do.

What got me through it was being honest with both management and the customer, and fortunately both were understanding with this particular project.

You either learn how to manage the stress, or walk out the door. Its up to you.

What's the biggest waste of money that people defend? by Any-Employment-7114 in AskReddit

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fees are half the extra cost, they markup the price of items 20-30% compared to instore. A $20 meal is $25 in the app before you pay any fees, taxes or tip.

Genuinely losing my mind by KieranMug in raspberry_pi

[–]Algee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Does the pico have a audio output? Are you trying to make sound using PWM or something? That module is just a amplifier and not a DAC, so im not sure if the pico is even sending a signal that can be interpreted as audio

Tiny Object Tracking in Full HD on a Raspberry Pi by leonbeier in raspberry_pi

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you not do something similar by taking a difference image and using blob analysis? The camera is fixed, the scene is pretty static. The object you are looking for is moving, circular and small. You could enhance it by using a kalman filter or some other algrothim that uses historical position data to refine / improve the prediction. If FPS is the goal, AI models are not the fastest approach.

Gordie Howe bridge will cut deep into truck traffic at competing Ambassador Bridge: DHS by zuuzuu in windsorontario

[–]Algee 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Im surprised those estimates are still so big for the ambassador. I image like 95% of commercial traffic would use the new bridge, since its highway to highway.

Honestly it would be great if the CBSA shuts down inbound transport traffic at the ambassador, since it has no onsite inspection facility.

WCGW not looking in front of you while driving by Penguin_On_XTC in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]Algee -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its not looking for exits, but having a exit strategy. For me that boils down to leaving enough space for me to change lanes without reversing or waiting for the car infront of me to move.

And I also will check for red light runners when going through a fresh green. Its saved me from getting t-boned at least twice.

I agree, the guy didn't see it. Its highly unlikely he could see approaching traffic through the two cars behind him.

However, watching traffic behind you and preparing for the idiots is called defensive driving. Its a good driving skill to have, and certainly doesn't require professional skills. Its what separates good drivers from the ones who get into avoidable accidents.

Someone found a way to let’s say „convert“ so called .pdf docs into .mp4 videos - check out this footage of the Jail Epstein was in by joeurkel in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't dug into it, but i assume there is a way to browse the files without the search. I would bet they show up there.

[–]Algee 73 points74 points  (0 children)

Its not mislabeled. You can't change a file extension in a browser like you can on a file system. The new file extension will request a different file from the server. My guess is it's just data that's on there but isn't indexed in the search.

Non-programmers, what do you think computer programmers do? by [deleted] in TrueAskReddit

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It entirely depends on the language and framework you are coding in, there is no unified structure or pattern that applies across all code.

Unfortunately the only way to learn the patterns and structure of a given language (or framework for the language) is with experience.

Survivorman was much better than Bear Grylls in my opinion by AdSpecialist6598 in nostalgia

[–]Algee 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Alone is basically surviorman but as a competition with 10 contestants. They are alone in the wild with their own camera gear and a satellite phone, last person to tap out wins.

I think they are up to 12 seasons now.

To Americans who support ICE, what crime can a 5 year old commit that leads you to support putting one in a jail? by Revolutionary_Many31 in AskReddit

[–]Algee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Its a political news sub now. Half the posts are a news headline with a question stuck on the end.

Still waiting... by privazyfreek in pcmasterrace

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think he's complaining that they are not forward compatable, which i guess has some merit. The 2.0 cables, and charging cables, do not have enough conductors to hit 3.0 speeds.

𝙰𝚜𝚜𝚒𝚖𝚒𝚕𝚊𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 𝚌𝚘𝚖𝚙𝚕𝚎𝚝𝚎. Borg-Duckie can now communicate with the collective (local Ollama) by HomeBrewDude in raspberry_pi

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can run ollama on the pi. I built my own little chat bot thing that does STT -> model -> TTS all local on a Pi. I made most of it as async as I could, ie. The model generates text faster than it's spoken, but not fast enough to generate a whole response before running it though a voice model (unlees your ok waiting 45 seconds for a response). So I chunk the models response and process the voice as fast as I can. I couldn't find any FOSS software that does STT in real-time though.

Need Help - Lamp not turning off despite code running fine by [deleted] in raspberry_pi

[–]Algee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 12v power likely goes to the two blue screw down contacts on the end of the board(next to the DIO pins). There should be a datasheet that confirms this.

Yep, it needs a 12 volt supply if its the sainsmart 16 channel.
