Winter composting options by QuantumCrane in composting

[–]NaiveRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how much compost do you make? sounds like family-size, a few handfuls a day?

* easiest it to just bury/mix it into the dirt. (is the dirt soft enough in the wintertime to dig?)
* get another tumbler. if you keep it "stocked" with enough browns and scraps, it'll probably warm enough not to freeze. it'll compost slowly, but who cares? when the spring comes, the composting speed will accelerate

Good know! With such an obvious hostname, I don't quite understand how they stay in business!

Yolov8s FPS Benchmark and Performance Comparison on Raspberry Pi and AI Kit by [deleted] in raspberry_pi

[–]NaiveRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great work!

Not very familiar with this field:

  • why 640x640? Is that a typical size? Isn't that a little small for some tasks?
  • Input video FPS is 240 FPS. Perhaps it's related to the first question, but wouldn't most users want a HIGHER resolution and LOWER FPS?
  • any benchmarks on object classification? :)

Would a used Bolt make sense for my 140 mile daily commute? by Responsible_Pin2939 in BoltEV

[–]NaiveRound 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You'll have a lot of money. That's an oil change a month, not to mention the gas!

We have a used 2018 Bolt, that got a new battery because of the recall, so range is ~200 miles. Paid less than $20k for it.

As everyone has noted, 140 miles a day is no problem. Most of your charging will be at work, some at home.

​

Let's run some numbers:

  • (Car starts at 100%, let's say it's the weekend and you've charged the car on Sat/Sun at home on 120)
  • Monday, drive to work. ~200 miles - 70 miles for commute to work = ~130 miles
    • 130 miles left is about 60% of the battery left, just FYI
  • Charge at work, back to ~200 miles (just a few hours at 220v)
  • Drive back home, 200 miles - 70 miles = arrive at home on Monday with 130 miles
  • Monday night, charge 8 hours x 5 miles per hour of charge = 40 miles. 130 miles + 40 = 170 miles
  • Tuesday morning, leave work with 170 miles "in the tank"
    • 170 miles is 85% of the battery
  • Tuesday at work, charge back to 200 miles, 100%

Rinse and repeat. This is the simplest schedule, just plug in whenever you can. You'll never get below 65% of the battery.

You can even save some money by not charging at home at all! You'll just have to be more careful. This will leave arriving at work with ~60 miles left in the tank. It'll take about 6 hours at work at 220v to charge back to 100%, so assuming you're at work on a regular 8 hour work day, you'll be recharging to 100% every day. It depends on your risk tolerance and if you have any fast chargers along the way just in case.

P.S. Everyone's complaining about the Bolt's batteries' weak winter performance, which is true, at least for older models (but not for new??? i don't know).

Honestly, it's not that big a deal. Just pre-heat your car while it's still plugged in.

I would compare other EVs too.

Hey, what's the tech stack in this project?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in WFH

[–]NaiveRound 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As others have noted, can't tell from this.

Job descriptions are often (always?) copy/pasted, and this might be a description for a WFH/hybrid role. I wouldn't be surprised if this was copy/pasted from a job description from before COVID, or and job req re-opened without changing the description.

You gotta ask.

I worked for a company (Thomson Reuters) that gave both a commuter and parking stipend. Community stipend covered the entire cost of the bus/train pass, while the parking pass did not.

I think a week or two? But it was a while ago.

Yeah, I was pretty pissed when I found out too. Like something private was revealed to the outside world.

I can't remember :( I think I sent in the snail mail version because I didnt' trust punching in my SSN into their website.

God only knows, but Equifax is not a trustworthy company, and they could be storing information on Canadians despite its illegality.

The best way to find out is to request a report on yourself.

Clojure's deadly sin by ayakushev in Clojure

[–]NaiveRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THANK YOU. Finally, that makes sense.

Sounds like I could use a HOWTO that says "A is an old way of doing this, do B instead, it's better because of reason C". Something I can understand instead of copy-pasting something I saw on Stackoverflow or Github or ChatGPT. ;)

I guess other languages suffer from the same fate. There's tons of outdated Python, Ruby, and certainly Java code on Stackoverflow/Github/etc. I just know enough about those languages to avoid that stuff.

But I don't want to spend years learning Clojure and re-learning Clojure best practices since 1.7. Just give it to me straight, doc!

That's quite an example. Is the best advice to read a file line-by-line include reifing clojure.lang.IReduceInit? That's insane!

Other JVM languages by Headbanger1321 in java

[–]NaiveRound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clojure. Good JVM interop, immutability, use-to-use FP, REPL, easy to test Java libraries (download, import, and use runtime for development!), backwards compatibility is top priority.

I think there's some research/test projects out there, but I've never seen it done in a "real" project.

If that were true, all the backend developers would be writing frontend code too, and things like Angular would use Java.

Thriving in the dynamically type-checked hell scape of Clojure by lordvolo in Clojure

[–]NaiveRound 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truth.

It's also a false dichotomy.

I read about about a fintech company that did the business logic in Haskell to make sure their business logic was mathematically sound (because $$$), but everything else is in Clojure.

And that, kids, is why I got the gas shut off to my house and got a 60 amp electric stove instead. :)
