They're getting down to ?25 or ?20 in some cases so might be worth thinking about. *Brtfs* Talk of Fedora Core using BRTFS https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/fedora-33-btrfs-by-default-test-day-2020-07-08/ Makes me wonder I maybe should format my NVm SSD with BRTFS apparently it's better for them. Also have a large partition to keep video files on used XFS which is good for large files apparently. *Google Coral USB Accelerator* I bought one for Tensor flow experimentation as can plug it in a Raspberry Pi and do real time image classification as well as making learning faster. There is the Intel one as well but I fancied Tensor Flow more. *CourseA.* Signed up to them they have some meaty courses that seem to be worth something. Anyone else tried them? *Clojure* I bought IntelliJ recently well I like vim or emacs but good to go the next level. Quite fun learning functional programming. *Motion Eye OS* Bought a Raspbery Pi 4 recently with High res cam and the 16mm zoom lens, to watch my Bird feeder and learn machine learning in the process. So far only a pigeon to train with but hopefullly will get there. Anyone experience with this my first go gave too many videos to browse. Added a editable Mask which then also didn't work only recognising the arrival of a Pigeon not the eating there of. Turned on Smart Mask and Auto Threshold now will see how that goes. *Nexdock 2 Touch* I ordered one that's comming August by the look of it. Talk now you only need two cables to connect a Raspberry Pi 4 http://nexdock.com/support/raspberrypi-4/ aka Option 2. *Machine Learning* I bought the O'Reilly Hands On Machine Learning with SciKit-Learn Keras and Tensor Flow 2 book after the intro course I'l probably find a matching course for the book. *IBM M900 Tiny PC * Well since I got IntelliJ looked for a small Intel box to run a full 64bit Genuine Linux on to run yikes java and well experimental stuff. Bought myself an IBM M900 with 8GB ram 128GB SSD for ?140 + ?10 postage. Not bad I thought, have since stuck a 1TB NVM 2e PCI express card inside it blindingly fast now and bonus have one spare SATA connection so hooked up an old slow drive for backups. What is the programme of choice for backups now? rsync, tar? I hear rsync does incremental... *Optane* >From the above if I do build a VR machine eventually I think I will get Intel Optane which is even quicker and surprised it's out already. *POE Hat for Pi (Power over Ethernet for those who don't know)* I was planning on putting the bird table camera outside but alas don't think the lens is waterproof and something unnerving about having nearly ?200 worth of gear unattended. So now either I send it back or will need another use for my Poe Hat any ideas. *Udemy* Signed up for some Udemy courses as they were cheap as chips a Pfsense router one some machine learning with Anaconda and Python sorry it seems to have won the science data analysis language race. *Wayland* Was chatting on Freenode #linux and it came up. Anyone tried it? I see it's still not ready for Prime Time as of 2019 and there were some criticisms on event injection... General info https://www.linux-magazine.com/Online/Features/Is-Wayland-the-New-X *Zsh* As I'm on the terminal alot these days felt like trying another shell. Even the act of switching is interesting what's the zsh bash shopt equivalent of shopt -s checkwinsize I wonder. *Finally to seemingly stay on topic.* Having thought about Zsh I thought I bet there is a Perl shell and sure enough Psh exists though doesn't look too active. https://gnp.github.io/psh/ That's all sorry if it's long but it's been interesting times.
