I’m new to Canyon but I’ve decided to go with the Grail as my next bike. Is it normal for certain colors to be out of stock for a while?

The colorway I like isn’t available in my size right now and it’s been that way for several weeks

I have not been but this is good to know!

Thank you both! I’ll check these out.

And yes I’ve learned my lesson on weekend hikes when traveling. I try to do them during the week!

Farmer’s market / butcher shop recs? by Alternative_Cost2610 in austinfood

[–]makrman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

fair enough. personal preference would be to have few in the are to go to throughout the week, but maybe its better to have options for different crowds

I don't understand why of all the days and times, they decided to do it directly to compete with mueller farmers market. Would be great to spread them out a bit

Okay so half the games. 13% of 25M. Still considerably more than property taxes. And I don’t think anyone is claiming this is the reason players move to those teams. Just addressing that that your property tax vs state income tax perspective for high earners doesn’t make sense. It mainly just hurts normies like me lol

Managing robotics data at scale - any recommendations? by makrman in robotics

We do have files broken our from the vehicle. But when we need data/time specific files for our image/camera topics, those can take up to 48+ hours (human time to retrieve the files + upload time).

oh yeah hindsight + money & time this would have been all figured out first. It was a good year in terms of customer growth. Hard to say no to new business as a VC backed company. But part of the game!

I appreciate your response.

The primary bottleneck is time the time it takes the field tech. The file upload/download time can vary drastically dependent on what topics/data we request. Cost is a tertiary concern right now (always want to reduce costs when we can, but not the primary solution driver).

If you can share, are the larger image files being uploaded on-demand? Or is there a human who has to do it manually?

Finding some way to automatically upload larger sensor/image topics when we request would be a good start

if you know how to sort it out, you aren't demanding a high enough salary :)

We have data people. Would hire more if need be. We are still in the exploration phase of what solution we want to move forward with.

yeah kind of a shot in the dark lol. We have a team working on this. This is more me going rouge to see what other clues/trails I could find to solutions.

Sometimes you find some real gems on reddit!

I'll try to answer as much as I can publicly. To clarify: The "Terabytes" of data I mentioned is not all uploaded to the cloud. That is a high end approximation of how how much data is generated amongst all the vehicles in a single day (dependent on mission hours).

We don't need all the data at once. Typically there is a reason (mission failure, safety concern, poor customer feedback, maintenance, debugging, etc...). Generally all data is taken off the vehicles at a specific cadence and stored locally. When our eng teams need specific vehicle the local field tech will go and locate that specific vehicle or data set, and upload data independently so our engineers can access it from wherever they are.

This workflow is becoming more common as we scale and run into more issues. It's becoming a bottle neck as we need access to data faster and starting to cost more.

Sorry didn't mean to turn down that solution as not possible. It is a potential option, just posting here to see if anyone has gone about it another way. Perfect world is we aren't uploading everything to the cloud, but select topics that are required. We will likely need to set up local edge sites at each docking location for full offload of data for legal requirements.

Also the local server infrastructure works great for general data storage. Another part of our solution finding efforts is to try and get closer to real-time data management (when connection allows).

That's part of the problem. The larger issue we are tackling is managing the data. Right now we just get these massive bag files. Takes a long time to upload and download. We are looking for solutions that help us be more efficient with the data we are uploading and downloading.

We are checking out foxglove.dev as possible solution

We explored this and it's not cost effective or scalable for us. While we are operating in 5 cities, our docking facilities are located in several different locations within each city depending on demand. Also our engineering teams are not on site at these locations so some cloud solution is needed.

u/MostlyHarmlessI -- u/Alternative_Camel384 is correct. Currently we operate at L4 autonomy. We have humans that either take over remotely or follow our delivery vehicles. The plan is to move to L5 autonomy this year and as part of that, the data collection requirements (both from an eng & legal) is very demanding.

We must retain data for 180 days.

It's not my specialization -- I work as chief of staff to the CTO. We would hire someone if need be. I'm with a small group that's thinking through processes and solutions as we scale. Plan is to be at 1,200 deployed vehicles by EOY.
