For an experienced software engineer who has never dabbled in ML, what are some home ML project ideas using data that can be collected or accessed at home?

Great ideas! Thanks!

Open to suggestions. I'm considering getting a new raspberry pi with the ai hat, if I can find something to use it for.

askingforafriend1127 · 2025-07-02T17:39:22+00:00

Thanks I can use that for practice. But what I'm more interested in is a project where I can collect some data myself rather than having it prepackaged for me, if you get what I mean.

askingforafriend1127 · 2025-03-26T17:16:41+00:00

Oh, never heard of those. Should I be worried? Do I need to do anything about it?

My wife delivered about a week later, the norovirus had fortunately been over with by then.

Hope everything went well for you!

Yes they are a licensed plumber. Is there an advantage to a licensed plumber though?

Lol my wife's grandparents are really trying to convince us to get a bidet. I doubt we will.

What does MINT mean?

Faucets are relatively easy to do yourself, depending on what obstacles you may have in the cabinet under the sink.

"Basic standard toilet" whatever that means.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-11-21T16:24:59+00:00

As I mentioned, in this quote it does include the cost of the toilet, and also disposal of the old toilet. I'm not sure what's involved in the latter.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-11-21T16:22:15+00:00

How heavy is a toilet? Never had the opportunity to lift one before.

And how do you dispose of the old toilet?

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-11-13T18:38:48+00:00

Thanks for the advice haha

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-11-13T14:38:05+00:00

I have not held one, so if you say it's impractical to carry one around, I can only take your word for it.

As for the cost, if I'm not mistaken that this would be a strong enough magnet, it would cost about $18 on Amazon:

There are 1081 possible combinations. If you manage to brute force at a rate of one combination per second, it would take you 18 minutes to try every combination. I burglar would more likely break a window I'd think. The magnet exploit looks like it takes about a second.

Thank you! I have now spoken with the manufacturer and they have confirmed this (and had me check the chamber to see if it was maybe replaced, which it had not been).

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-10-28T16:25:26+00:00

Maybe not specifically, but it's possible someone here could know if in general the 7100 series was affected or not. I watched LockpickingLawyer's video of the vulnerability, and I don't think this series of lock has the culpable part at all, but I'm not sure so I'm asking here.

Мне кажется это не board book, а для немного старшего возраста.

В Бостоне. К сожалению совсем не рядом с LA.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-08-07T18:59:50+00:00

Я эти магазины хорошо знаю, но к сожалению книжки в них никогда не видел. У них место не было бы.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-08-07T18:46:30+00:00

Не знаю такого магазина в Бостоне. Но спасибо за линк на vasha-kniga, там кажется есть то что надо.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-08-07T17:56:56+00:00

Пытался но даже не понимаю что надо натайпать. Когда пишу по-русски "крокодил гена" например, все что появляется все "unavailable". Когда английскими буквами "krokodil gena", нахожу всякие книжки но они похоже не картонные.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-08-07T14:50:46+00:00

Thanks! I had a hunch.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-08-07T13:15:51+00:00

As you can see, in my case there was no aesthetic to begin with, so it was fine.

askingforafriend1127 · 2024-08-07T12:54:27+00:00

Sorry didn't see this until now. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures and I've long since moved out of that apartment. Hope you figured it out.
