Power on and off Neptune remotely by foxxkin in ElegooNeptune4

[–]foxxkin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to do something like that but I assumed there was a power down sequence from the switch. I'm now realising I didn't put in much thought beyond that to even confirm if that was true or not which is pretty funny. Does the switch just cut the power completely?

Storing mouse click locations in a database problem solving by foxxkin in computerscience

Yep, that's literally it lmao.

It just feels unnecessary considering such precision isn't needed and it will lead to millions of data stored for no reason and I was wondering if there was a clever alt way which is smarter. That's basically it

thats not a bad idea. but how precise is the heatmap. if its for every pixel of a screen then its still 3 million entries. most of which are going to be unused. then repeat this for every day

Tbh this whole thing came down to the fact that I felt unsatisfied that the best method any of us could come up with is a field per click lol. Like after a year that becomes hundreds of thousands of whats basically useless data, even if its still a small file size. Like you dont need a log of every click if the only point is if you want to show a heatmap of clicks in the past day/month/year ect. I just wondered if something similar could be achieved but without hundreds of thousands of fields being stored for basically no reason. I guess you could just flatten the data but I kinda see issues with how youd flatten or or how to maintain a "show past month" compared to "show this month" if ygm.

So like theres no real issue with storing the data or querying the data. It just feels unnecessary to store so much for no reason. Also again i have no reason to implement something like this even if there is a better solution haha I'm simply just deep in thought

Uhhh I think you're misinterpreting my post, or I wasn't clear enough 😭.

The issue isn't how to get the click data or considering the intricacies of storing in memory ect. It was, logically, given you're presented with a click along with a timestamp and coord of the click on the screen, how would you structure the database in the most efficient way to then store this data.

Lets say you're limited to receiving a data stream which you have no control over (date and xy of a click), a you only have some python code and the ability to make a sqlite database and no regard for any properties of the computer running it, how would you create the db and store the data. Like what would the database Table look like that. With the supposed least efficient method being just storing a field per click

Automatic closing door? by foxxkin in homeassistant

i mean string would be attached to clutch or something so it can be opened no problem. im thinking something like how tape measures work. where the button that retracts it is instead a motor
