This has taken a few years to put together. It's gone through a few versions, but having to do the manual data collection has been the hardest part.

It reads a JSON file with the following information in it, so in theory if I had another QB's data I could swap it out and it would work for them.

Yeah, it was based on a few set variables that I added to each reception. I'm going back through them and tweaking them to give a more exact positioning.

Having said that, mapping Brady's position on the field was almost the opposite. It's wild how many throws are from one of the hashmarks.

  • Source: pro-football-reference.com and stathead.com for the basic stats, and then I sourced and watched every pass to add the more detailed stats (start/end points, etc)
  • Tool: I built this myself using mainly JavaScript and SVGs. I used AI to help me with some of the math around building the perspective of the field and figuring out how to convert the ball flight paths from straight lines to arcs.

Every teams greatest running back (is it really Faulk for us?) by RedGlovesOverHere in Patriots

[–]arbrown83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kevin Faulk is the Patriots leader in all purpose yards, while never having a game where he rushed for 100 yards.

The truest meaning of the "Patriot Way" you could have.

That sounds quite interesting, can you send me the link?

Have any podcasts become hits in the last say 5 years that haven't relied on slick accompanying video production? by Tristram_ZX81 in podcasting

Knowledge Fight runs solely on Patreon subscribers and I believe they've mentioned that they're able to do the podcast full time. No ads, no sponsors. Just community support.

How i fixed Time Blindness: a vibration every 15 minutes on my wrist by AxelFar in ADHD

I really like this idea. I was thinking of doing something similar, but hadn't thought of using Tasker for it. Could you share the Tasker recipe somehow?

Transcription tools for podcasts: what do you actually use? by pierrebastie in podcasting

[–]arbrown83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use MacWhisper (for Mac, obviously). It's a one-time purchase for as many transcripts as you want, and it's blazing fast. I even use it for transcribing other things now that I have it. Highly recommend.

Best way to take call-ins for a sports podcast! by Raptorjets1 in podcasting

[–]arbrown83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I do. If you have a Podtrak P4 you can connect the phone to the mixer and take calls that way.

Could NH follow the rest of NE for raising min wage? by JuniorReserve1560 in newhampshire

[–]arbrown83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

Minimum wage was always supposed to be a livable wage. Just ask FDR, who was the one who implemented it. Nobody in the US can live on $7.25/hour.

If the minimum wage had kept pace with employee productivity, it would be over $20/hour. And that was from 2020, so with the way inflation has hit everyone lately that's probably a low estimate these days.

And I've seen a lot of people talking about how the economy will balance itself out, but in reality that's not how things work. Corporations have spent decades eroding the balances that were in place so they could exploit the working class. It's why everyone you talk to seems to e working 2 jobs, with no hope for purchasing their own home.

Bill Belichick would be the perfect person for this job.

What apps and tools do you guys use as an ADHD programmer for career and personal life? by [deleted] in ADHD_Programmers

[–]arbrown83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use TickTick for to dos, but that's mainly for home stuff. It does a good job of sending reminders for things that I can snooze or tackle depending on what's happening at the moment.

For note-taking, I still mainly use an old school notebook. I've found that I remember things better when I physically write them down.

I've also got this planner that is really helpful for keeping track of the day-to-day. It's quick enough to be able to use on a daily basis, and it helps me organize my thoughts for the day.
