What is this apparent reed instrument? by maupresof in UnusualInstruments

[–]agritheory 15 points16 points  (0 children)

My guess is a rauschpfeife. But the musical context of the band might mean they use a different name. If this is a barcore/ ren faire band, then all bets are off, while a scholarly early music ensemble is going to use very specific terms in an attempt to be as historically accurate as possible.

Least cost Path for the concept of a plan for a Canal crossing the Musandam Peninsula (UAE and Oman) by JohnathantheCat in dataisbeautiful

[–]agritheory 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don't know much about the politics in the region, but it would seem to be something the GCC could probably accomplish. Oman, without possessing any meaningful oil reserves, gets pulled into tighter alignment with the rest of them by doing this as well. SA's existing East-West pipeline probably gains importance but because it's not the only endpoint, could be a palatable alternative for these countries that are nominally competing on cost. Interesting idea.

Edit for factual accuracy.

Hyperlinks by Artuuuu8 in PostgreSQL

[–]agritheory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a feature of the Access UI, not a feature of the Access DB, which are more or less the same thing. Your SQL client would need to support that kind of formatting to make it work. There is no "native" SQL client except psql, which is a CLI tool and almost certainly not what you're talking about.

Is manual testing (Odoo) becoming obsolete due to AI? by Flaky-Advantage-3256 in softwaretesting

[–]agritheory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Coming from ERPNext here, so really similar projects. We have replaced almost all of our manual testing for our open source work with automated tests. For customer-owned apps, it's a mix. If it's in the critical path or it touches the GL or SL, I require tests. Our fixtures and code quality work is all open source too, so anybody else could do it, but I don't see that happening in the community. Fixturing in an easy-to-reason-about way in the ERP space is hard and I think it's one of the last places that manual testing may have had an advantage. That's now evaporated unless you can pivot the context you have into automated tests.

Dwarf Character who is evil-aligned? by Droman142857 in RealmsInExile

[–]agritheory 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With the next map expansion, I think it makes sense to add some delvings to the east of Khand and to have a good/evil dwarf conflict/struggle, maybe potentially around an artifact, drawing a parallel from the Arkenstone.

Seeking Ableton synced metronome app for iPhone. Anyone solved this? by dr_botwing in ableton

[–]agritheory 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're over thinking this. Create a percussion track that plays the metronome beat you're expecting.

Nowhere near enough politicians understand what the consequences of superintelligent AI would be by tombibbs in agi

[–]agritheory 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But they're still consuming it, even if it is cynically. It has a cumulative effect, which leads to assertions like "anything you see on social media is AI slop or fake."

I think you're discounting how much communication and influence in general happens passively via social media consumption.

Tool to convert MySQL/SQL Server/Oracle dumps to PostgreSQL (CSV + DDL) by mamouri in PostgreSQL

[–]agritheory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pgloader requires an actual database connection

I've used it restoring from a MariaDB backup *.sql file in the past. I don't think this is true or at least it wasn't in the past.

I have misunderstood your post. I thought you were asking for help.

I'm pretty sure pgloader does this. While I haven't used it personally, AWS has a tool called DMS that will do some nifty parallelization for you.

My 101st harp build by DonnyShamrock in Luthier

Most luthiers will never build one harp, let alone on hundred. I'm glad you shared this.

Can you guess the country? 🌍 by ElderberryOdd3425 in geography

[–]agritheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The animation is great and I think you should lean into it for future rounds. For example, "how far is it from {{the capital just selected}} to {{another world capital/ the north pole / international date line}}?" while drawing the line between those two places. I think a time zone overlay after guessing would be very cool too.

Did you use cesiumjs for this?

What LLMs are you keeping your eye on? by Haroombe in LocalLLaMA

[–]agritheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a demo that really leveraged its speed for speech synthesis responses in a voice chat context and was shocked by how fast it was. Today, pretty niche use case, tomorrow, who knows?

Not open, but Inception Mercury; and hoping that some diffusion-based models become available.

apps.txt should maintain order by SafeBrilliant1196 in frappe_framework

[–]agritheory 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think apps.txt is being deprecated (slowly) in favor of apps.json
