Nice! I like that it moves things to the recycling bin rather than straight up deleting them. Also, the filtering is great. I wish Apple included that in the OSX (Storage > Messages) or iOS (Storage > Review Large Attachments) UIs. I

Everyone here is thinking about privacy and surveillance and here I am wondering if this is what lets us speed up nano cameras to relativistic speeds with lasers to image other solar systems up close.

My COVID project was DCSkyCam[1], which is on a Pi4 with the HQ camera to do sunrises/sunsets, and uses TFLite and other packages for object detection and identification of helicopters that fly by. I also have a Pi 3B running pihole[2

One issue I always run into when implementing these approaches is the embedding model's context window being too small to represent what I need. For example, on this project, looking at the generation of training data [1], it seems lik

For my DCSkyCam project, htop shows 1.8 load average on my Pi 4B. It's always busy, with resources left to handle spikes based on what the camera detects (or post to mastodon/website). I'd say it's right-sized. Best part

Not to hijack the OP, but yes, my Twitter bot actually tweets spots to his bot. My DCSkyCam data this helps train his models, but another objective for me was to learn image ML techniques, so I’m using all my own data/models.

This is great! I've done something similar, but to detect helicopters and tweet them to a local copter spotting group: https://twitter.com/dcskycam/with_replies I also use the Pi+HQ Cam, but with their wide-angle
