It's called feeling 'ticklish'.


UW-Madison's ML+X community is hosting Machine Learning Marathon that will be featured as a competition on Kaggle (https://www.kaggle.com/c/about/host)

"What is the 2024 Machine Learning Marathon (MLM24)?

This approximately 12-week summer event (exact dates TBA) is an opportunity for machine learning (ML) practitioners to learn and apply ML tools together and come up with innovative solutions to real-world datasets. There will be different challenges to select from — some suited for beginners and some suited for advanced practitioners. All participants, project advisors, and event organizers will gather on a weekly or biweekly basis to share tips with one another and present short demos/discussions (e.g., how to load and finetune a pretrained model, getting started with GitHub, how to select a model, etc.). Beyond the intrinsic rewards of skill enhancement and community building, the stakes are heightened by the prospect of a cash prize for the winning team."

While a cool experiment. I don't understand why you'd use this on a RPi unless your poor-man's server was already the RPi. Isn't that the beauty of this device is it's a router/firewall on a board that takes up 0-U space?


Normally I don't reply for self-evident answers but the sad sibling's comments make me reply anyway.

RPi is not originally made for industry usages but there are currently many industry that use it for prototyping and even inside real world implementations due to the existing eco-systems for examples drivers, software, and hardware (daughterboards, hats, etc).

In my case I have designed Linux based network training kit with open source software like Quagga and LiSA (Linux switching appliance). It always good to use widely supported hardware like Rasberry Pi, and this Mikrotik NIC is good for data forwarding plane and network acceleration with potential extras like in-network computing and edge processing similar to SmartNIC and Data Processing Unit (DPU).

Apart from training we also have collaborations with China and Australia Radio Astronomy groups and one of the interesting part is to perform e-VLBI. It is nice to have a device in one small appliance (RPi + accelerator) in the remote observatories that cost less than USD300 with much lower power consumption rather than a full blown Xeon based server with accelerator.


Because Broadcom pays people to spam internet forums with their Raspberry Pi brand.

Incessantly.


O365 was the first thing I was looking for. The university I work for is heavily invested in O365 calendaring and Tasks, but for myself personally I use a combination of other services. If this could bring them all together for my wife and I to have a single pane of glass I'd be in.


I used to think so until I started just using bash scripts in replacement of docker-compose files.


Anecdotally, and perhaps keep in mind I'm quite skilled with bash, in school we had a few people managing their desktops with scripts. Set things like desktop preferences, ssh config, sometimes add a different desktop environment (we each had our own user and it worked with LDAP, so we roamed around and that's why this was useful). I was the only one using bash, some others in my year used Ansible. They seemed to be spending half of each afternoon trying to fix something in Ansible, also trying to use other people's scripts if I remember correctly, etc.; for me another preference was just another line of bash and it worked reliably given that the desktops were all the same OS.

If you know bash already and you don't want to use it to reinvent a big wheel, yeah I would not hesitate to use it after seeing this struggle with more modern tools. Most of the Docker setup configs I see are already 60% bash commands strung together with backslashes on each line and broken syntax highlighting (because you're in a different file format).


What is your bash depends_on: equivalent ? I like the idea of keeping it simple bash, but seems like it is a step back.


I’ve used wait-for-it with success.

I had to look up what depends_on accomplishes, so maybe I'm missing something here, but wouldn't an If/then/else sort that out as well as give you more options?


I am not a web developer, but I don't understand what is needed to be 'installed' to use a css? Could someone explain why the default install isn't a clone of a nes.css?


The tl;dr is it's using SCSS, which is a language that generates CSS for you[0], and therefore needs a build step. They haven't bothered to put the build output into their repo because anyone who wants the minified file can build it themselves or use wget to download it from the CDN.

[0] Why would you want to generate CSS, I hear you ask? Check out https://sass-lang.com/guide


I can tell you why I, a sys admin interested in dabbling in html/css for my own personal website, looked into CSS Grid.. Firefox Developer Start Page. Right there in the middle.


Thunderforest has a free tier that has served my hobby projects for years. https://www.thunderforest.com/maps/


"Greensboro Man creates Lesbian* Dating App"


Exactly. Title says "$14" and then show this as the setup: https://i.imgur.com/SYUSIDs.png


"Google Assistant can be hijacked by a $2 pack of screws!"


So your typical Reddit/Hacker News new computer build.

"$300 for the whole thing. (Note: This doesn't include the GPU, motherboard, case, or monitor that I already had prior to building.)"


If you scroll further down, they show a significantly cheaper setup.
