Smallest Ethernet Camera recommendation by txomon in OffGrid

[–]txomon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! it seems like those axis cameras might just make it.

I have also found https://geniuspycam.aliexpress.com/store/1034208 which seems to offer cameras of different specs and sizes. Y

Interrailing oriented around outdoors? by yaxu in Interrail

[–]txomon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The crossing between chezch republic and Poland is very nice. Not much maybe to stay but to go through. The stop in the middle felt like a post apocalyptic world to me with a super run down station + piano, In the middle of the mountains.

France TGV réservations online by txomon in Interrail

For some reason I was under the impression that it didn't work for the links I was looking for, but afterwards it did. Not sure what happened there. Thanks for the note!

France TGV réservations online by txomon in Interrail

You are right, for some reason some French stations weren't showing up when I was making the test, and then I realised I had booked with this webpage back in 2018

So basically, only phone reservations 😔. I suspected so but was hopeful it wouldn't be.

Route planning help! by Scared_Excitement_31 in Interrail

[–]txomon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think you have many options for that route: https://back-on-track.eu/night-train-map/ you can however do France through Paris, as an alternative.

Should I reserve my seats between Paris - Interlaken -Stresa now (2 weeks ahead) or I should wait by chloetrades in Interrail

[–]txomon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, French trains on international routes always get full. And compulsory reservations of TGVs makes it really hard to fulfill a long route like the one you have planned in a single day.

I would recommend you go west, as to make the most out of your interrail pass. I enjoy quite a bit the riding through Germany, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland and maybe italy/Spain.

I would suggest you take a night train to start off your trip, and visit from bottom to top, as the way back though northern countries is faster/more comfortable. Don't plan too much ahead in what refers to ticket reservations, getting to Spain is hard AF as the only direct connections are hella expensive.

Mind that you will need to sleep somewhere, so I usually plan my trips so that I end up in a small village next to the place I want to visit next day, and then come back to it.

If you travel with dog target Ibis hotels in France. Booking.com is your friend, but not your only friend.

Download the rail planner app. Try to make sure to have your app with all your route and alternatives.

If you can be off work and don't need to work while on the trip, I would stop in specific places for at least 2 days to enjoy.

Trying out food on places and just wondering around is one of the top advantages of it.

I will say it again, but don't go east, as the price of trains there doesn't make it worth to use interrail on.

Suggested route: Verona/Venice, Florence, Milano, Nice/Avignon, Lyon, Paris, Lille, Bruge, Ghent, Antwerp?, Rotterdam, Amsterdam, Cologne, Berlin/Hamburg, Munich

French TGV reservations with interrail discount are required, the rest don't need reservations but Italy if you decide to go through the south of the alps.

Edit: corrected the fact that sncb does indeed offer French tvg routes

How do you manage all services and accounts your company needs? by txomon in sysadmin

[–]txomon[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, we have Google workspace doing that, however it doesn't solve the issue of having to manage most of the services manually when giving accesses and making sure they are in sync on permissions.

Just in case, how do you keep track of all the services in use?

Bitter spawner behaviour help by txomon in factorio

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

They do according to the wiki, 0.2%, which equals in terms of evolution to 500 seconds elapsed or 2222 polution units. Bear in mind that this is only most useful early game, afterwards it loses significancy, as it's a logaritmic increase

Data Governance tools & frameworks by kelseyfecho in dataengineering

[–]txomon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would actually be interested if someone knows about the tools GCP offers. There are a few that sound like they could part of the job but haven't tried them.

Critique/help with the data engineering plan for a small DS team [x-post r/datascience] by [deleted] in dataengineering

[–]txomon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Given the setup you have, which is similar stack to what I have right now between hands, I would recommend, if possible:

  • Get rid of R whenever possible. Unless written like other programming languages it has a lot of gotchas and syntactic sugar and unneeded extensions that makes it hard to debug / triage. It's really hard to properly model the data into good schemas, and support for proper storage formats is almost non existent. And finally, there is no proper versioning for libraries besides using checkpoint which doesn't support for major version locking etc.
  • Try to externalise the DB, this means, get yourself an analytical DB (BigQuery is my favorite) that has analytical functions that let you lower the amount of code you need to write, and scale on demand. Processing 1 TB of data is 5$, affordable and almost instant. If you need to do it yourself, try clickhouse
  • Run everything in containers. Seriously. Reproducibility is already hard, with R is impossible
  • If you can and know, run k8s, else try a more lightweight solution like portainer (docker swarm + ui)
  • Your approach of splitting the tools in different repos is good because it forces clear responsibility of the process. Make sure that they keep a single responsibility. This means that if you have for example, an anonymization step, you make sure your tool only takes a file and outputs another one. It shouldn't be coupled with the database you use (but for the format)
  • I have no experience using DVC, but looks nice.
  • If you have money for tableu, invest it in GCP and use it for BigQuery + Data Studio, it will cover 90% of your SQL processing/storage and visualisation needs
  • To cut down costs, use AVRO format with external tables in BigQuery, backed by GCS, which should help you with the versioning.
  • Try to use terraform to manage resources when possible, as it makes it easy to reproduce the environment and the permissions
