#jupyter — Public Fediverse posts

I didn't see the point of #Jupyter notebooks at first, but it's a pretty good way to work on #Python code, if you're doing a lot of fiddly interacting with remote systems or working on processing images at all.

Like, I've got an old phone mounted in a spot where it's not visible in the room, pointed out at the backdoor where the doggos come and scratch to get in. The idea is to have it notify us both when they get to the door, so we can train them to just sit and wait.

The phone is running Android IP Camera, a basic app that streams the camera of your choice in an easily-polled way. It was fairly easy to sort out how to grab a frame from it, but then it needed rotating and a bit of cropping, and being able to modify the params and then just hit the Run button and get the new image, it sped up the process by many units of time.
