Hey all, figured I would share what I'm working on here. It's been a long frustrating road, learning how to train a custom ball detection model, but here we are.. Just about ready!

this was a weekend project that I wanted to share. If you know anything about the world of stage lighting, lighting software sucks. I decided to have Claude connect all of my lights, bypassing software, and it built a pipeline for creating automatic/AI-generated light shows.

Enttec DMX ARTNet device -> Computer -> Claude indexed all DMX fixtures, channel mappings, and built a control panel

Hey all, creator here. Share your scores after you finish. It's not easy!

Wrong. Money, power & control. If you limit what one can do if they don't have a vaccine, you create an artificial demand for the vaccine, thus driving profits through the roof.

Basic economics there.

I won't be getting my "ID" card if they ever make one.

"Not that some wealth redistribution wouldn't be nice" == "Not that some theft wouldn't be nice"

The green new deal is absolute garbage, along with this notion of "social justice", christ.

100% agree. In Ford's case, it was a voluntary decision to attract and keep the best workers. In the case of federally mandated minimum wage, it's a threat of force against business owners who are otherwise acting peacefully and quite literally, minding their own business.

Raising the minimum wage results in: - A raise in the price of products (hurting the poor the most) - Firing employees - Reducing hours - Going out of business - Outsourcing

I'm a business owner, and I'm not going to sit here eating up the cost of a higher minimum wage. The central planners don't seem to understand this -- or they do, and they ultimately want more people dependent on them. If that's the case, raising the minimum wage is a great idea.

Government. I didn't read it, but that's the reason.

And many countries are authoritarian shitholes who care more about revenue generation than protecting people. People don't need a speedometer to drive safely.

Yeah, but that's not like a huge badge of honor. I can build a site and make it hit beyond a 200k alexa within a few months with minimal effort.

No mention of NuxtJS in the article or in the comments here. I highly suggest checking out nuxtjs.org (built on Vue) with the `npm run generate` command to generate a static site.

"Bezos is no fool. He will reduce his headcount, and step up his automation effort to eliminate as many low-skilled jobs from Amazon. Then he will lobby Congress to increase the minimum wage for his competitors that still employ lower-skilled workers. As these competitors will lack the resources to automate, they will be driven out of business, and all their workers will lose their jobs. Less competition will make it easier for Amazon to raise prices." - Peter Schiff

I'm all for voluntarily raising wages for your employees; that's a great thing. But if we see that Amazon is backing efforts to raise the minimum wage, we'll know Schiff was right.

Get ready for higher Amazon prices. Raising the minimum wage == raising prices, laying off employees, etc == hurts the poor the most.

UBI is an absolutely terrible idea by the way. The problems you speak of would only get worse.

Do you want to pay more for Amazon products? Because that's what you'll get if Mr. Socialist Sanders has his way.

As a YT creator with 200k+ subscribers, shit like this scares me. Fortunately, I do not put all my eggs in one basket, and YouTube is just one of 4 ways I monetize my business.

I run my own internet based business teaching full stack dev out of a bedroom converted to an office. My 2 daughters (5 & 8) are homeschooled.

It can be extremely challenging at times trying to work, but I am able to be in their life a lot more than your average dad.

I flew out to Cali to record a course last year and it was my first time away from my family for a few days. Before leaving, I thought it was going to be awesome to take a break from them. I realized just how damn attached I was to them during that time. I never experienced home sickness like that before. I was like a little baby.

I've created probably over 100 video courses, hundreds of tutorials (written and video), for networks like TutsPlus (Envato), DigitalTutors, Pluralsight, LinkedIn Learning/Lynda.com, and my own site / yt channel.

I've always been a huge proponent of example-based learning, and less about theory and generalized concepts.

Still, though, I think the online tech ed space has a lot of growing up to do. In time, we'll all wise up to provide better experiences for learning. Until then, for the most part, we're stuck with:

1. Google: "How to do X in Y" 2. Watch 3 different videos or read 3 different articles 3. Apply it. 4. Run into a snag. 5. Google / Stackoverflow

"Mandatory"? Sorry, not all problems should be combated by government regulations. In fact, regulations almost always make matters worse.

The libertarian in me is shrieking.

Here's the full course on the yt chan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhggNGsSQyg

If you don't want to watch on the site, here's the whole course in 1 video @ youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78tNYZUS-ps

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime."

UBI has a lot wrong with it, but I'll just start and end with a first principle: Taxation is theft and therefore, government and UBI are immoral.

I advocate for freedom and consent, especially as it pertains to economics. The income I earn through producing goods and services that I exchange voluntarily with other individuals should be mine to keep; all of it. Anything less is not freedom and certainly not consent.

And there would be plenty more that would produce far less.

Down with net neutrality. It's just another government program that the very top tech companies love, because it helps squash competition. Open and free markets are always superior.

Alternatively, you can watch the whole thing at my youtube chan: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oa9cnWTpqP8

There's also a written version of each lesson.

If you don't want to bother with my site, you can watch the whole thing on my yt channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KU6bvciWgRE&list=PL0lNJEnwfV...

- The videos are 1 hour 27 minutes long - The written version is 8,700 words - It's completely free - You only need to know HTML, CSS & basic JavaScript

Automatically upload footage to something like the IPFS. Blockchain that shit, immutable.

Author here. I've noticed the opposite. All things being equal (email content/subject lines etc), my opens, clicks, etc.. all have increased since switching to SES. Not sure if an anomaly or what, but that's my experience.

Mailwizz provides all of the delivery stats. Here's a screenshot I just took of a recent campaign:

Author here.. yeah, that's why you have to use SES with Mailwizz, which gives you all of those features from MC.

So, a more accurate title would have been, MailChimp vs. SES + Mailwizz. ;)
