Personal development stuff

2025-07-09 23:54:32.929449+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

So that whine about build systems stems from my working on getting SquareDesk running on Linux again. Since I had it running, Mike Pogue has gone and added a bunch of audio processing stuff using JUCE, which is great, except that when I did a cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=~/local/ I got a deep tree that requires additional include stuff for the header files, and I haven't figured out where the freakin' library is to tell the .pro file where to find it. So more digging.

Meanwhile, my neighbor is taking video of people running the new stop sign at Mission and Mountain View, and even with motion detection it takes a while to go back through the video and figure out where the video of the egregious offenders is, so I should write something that uses ffmpeg to decode to a raster, and either use the magic of OpenCV or, more likely, because the camera angles are such that detection is gonna be kinda weird, just watch two rectangles for changes above a threshold and output a timestamp when one triggers in close proximity to the other.

All <cite>ed text will point to the Flutterby knowledge base. Two enters (ie: a blank line) gets you a new paragraph, special treatment for paragraphs that are manually indented or start with "#" (as in "#include" or "#!/usr/bin/perl"), "/* " or ">" (as in a quoted message) or look like lists, or within a paragraph you can use a number of HTML tags:

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
