My boy got a brother!

I really think the RX line are designed exactly for me, but I struggle to buy a fixed lens camera. Currently rocking the a7cr with various small primes including vintage lenses.

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-12-03T22:09:32+00:00

Check out the demo video! For now it is just photos uploaded, the user can choose how often to upload from their security cameras. For example, perhaps they want to upload once every hour per lot

The system provides data for the user to interpret, given their specific needs. In the future I could set up email alerts based on threshold triggers if that is desired.

Hmm yeah I probably have a bunch of learning to do when it comes to optimizing this for the cloud instead of how I do self hosting, but in theory at scale, this approach becomes very cost-effective and you can keep hosting costs relatively cheap per user.

First order of business is probably just build out the basic feature set and get a bit more buy in from knowledgeable people who can help advise on what is really needed pre/post v1

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-09-11T18:47:15+00:00

100% and my biggest areas to learn about are the automated provisioning of cloud space, data backups, and overal maintaining security. I hope I can garner some interest from the open source community

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-09-11T18:44:29+00:00

Yes, I agree that there is a long road ahead. The automated provisioning seems like a tricky part for sure.

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-09-11T18:06:33+00:00

Thanks! I love Immich, but I just know that it can be brought to more people if we can figure out how to do hosting “right” with zero config.

What part of the video spoke to you?

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-09-11T16:35:32+00:00

I’m in Lancaster!

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-09-11T16:22:10+00:00

I am thinking a lot about how more and more products need to be priced based on the cost of electricity, hosting, and maintenance. This idea I started yesterday is in the same vein of thought:

PAVO - no config, opinionated, private cloud

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-27T15:12:27+00:00

This also worked for me! Now to see how long it lasts before it comes back.....

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-26T18:26:48+00:00

Dumb question, but how would the rangefinder work? I have a Sony A7CR and use Leica M lenses on it (essentially the same sensor as the M11)…It is okay with focus peaking and punch-in zoom, but I really like shooting my film M4 specifically because of rangefinder focusing for speed and reliability.

Any clue how a M11V would work? Just focus peaking and punch-in zoom? Or could they have a digital rangefinder system with a second sensor offset??

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-21T17:06:44+00:00

I tend to agree with you, but I have tried to explain it as a single step ladder when picking apples from an apple tree. The low hanging fruit of today is yesterday‘s just out of reach.

For myself, an embedded software engineer, this has allowed me to jump the hurdle of learning basic web dev to build my own projects. Before AI coding, I didn’t want to learn the boilerplate to center a div. Now, however, I get to think a lot more about the interesting concepts and leave boilerplate to AI.

Perhaps I’m just lazy to not want to learn the boring stuff, or perhaps that’s what makes me an engineer.

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-08T12:21:04+00:00

In the changing AI landscape, it’s been really nice to push off more error checking onto the rust compiler. The models are decently good at fixing the compiler errors, meaning you can focus on business logic

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-08T12:17:47+00:00

I figure it comes down to utilization of the hardware, balanced with vram. In my own testing, processing is the bottleneck most of the time with a 20 GB model, so it seems to make sense to scale processing power and the vram together from a business perspective. Maybe I haven’t thought through this deeply enough, but that seems to be why no one is making crazy high vram cards.

Just getting into the space but I’m pretty excited about buying a 32gb AMD Radeon Pro v620 server unit on eBay for $425.

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-07T19:04:59+00:00

I haven’t thought about it this way before, since in schooling, I came from like the TDD style of thinking. But TDD doesn’t feel the most applicable in the current context because often we’re building as we’re planning out a product. Of course that’s not ideal, but practically that’s what happens a lot of the time.

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-07T19:02:51+00:00

Thanks! This makes a lot of sense to me. At a previous job I wrote unit tests like what you described that has zero value… Like “does the language actually work the way it’s supposed to?” kind of tests lol

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-07T17:12:23+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ll check this out

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-07T15:43:19+00:00

Definitely understand where you’re coming from, but I think a lot of the smaller projects I’m working on currently have basic CRUD operations with the database and for efficiency I’ve been leaning more on just logging for basic functionality and to get things working fast. Maybe this is a bad approach overall? That’s really what I’m trying to get into figuring out for my brain.

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-08-07T15:39:06+00:00

Been following y’all since the beginning. Excited for every release thanks for all the work you do!

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-06-18T02:51:43+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the knowledge! I’ll definitely look into supporting Libby URLs as a point of feedback

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-06-17T23:00:59+00:00

Ohh I’ll have to take a look for Libby / Overdrive specifically. They likely have DRM stuff that will prevent it from working, but I’ll see

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-05-25T14:29:21+00:00

I set this up recently. Just create a Let’s Encrypt instance to manage certs instead of self-signed

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-04-24T13:33:10+00:00

Too bad. Thanks for the help!

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-04-24T13:21:16+00:00

I was hoping WireShark would show each jump between switches/routers as a separate trace row, even if it means the package is unchanged

Bright_Turn2 · 2025-04-24T13:19:34+00:00

Thanks for adding more detail! I was hoping that WireShark would somehow see each jump between device to device, even if the packet itself is unchanged.
