• OctoPrint

  223 8,027 9.3 Python

  OctoPrint is the snappy web interface for your 3D printer!

  

Project mention: How could I send .gcode wirelessly | /r/3Dprinting | 2023-12-11

The cheapest way is to use OctoPrint. Octoprint itself is free, and although it's often run on a Raspberry Pi, it can be installed on many things, such as an old laptop runing Linux or even Windows, or a small single-board computer. OctoPrint would connect to the printer using a USB cable, and you'd send the slicer output to Octoprint over your WiFi.

• InfluxDB

  Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  

• mycroft-core

  212 6,456 0.0 Python

  Mycroft Core, the Mycroft Artificial Intelligence platform.

  

Project mention: Rabbit R1, Designed by Teenage Engineering | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-09

It's indeed suspicious. You're sending your voice samples, your various services accounts, your location and more private data to some proprietary black box in some public cloud. Sorry, but this is a privacy nightmare. It should be open source and self-hosted like Mycroft (https://mycroft.ai) or Leon (https://getleon.ai) to be trustworthy.

• documentation

• flower

  27 4,192 9.9 Python

  Flower: A Friendly Federated Learning Framework (by adap)

  

Project mention: Pyenv – lets you easily switch between multiple versions of Python | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-25

We use Pyenv successfully for developing the Flower open-source project. We use a few simple Bash scripts to manage virtual environments with different Python versions via pyenv and the pyenv-virtualenv plugin.

The main scripts are `venv-create.sh`, `venv-delete.sh` and `bootstrap.sh`. `venv-reset.sh` pulls these three scripts together to make reinstalling your venv a single command.

Here's the link if anyone is interested: https://github.com/adap/flower/tree/main/dev

• whitelist

  51 4,115 0.0 Python

  A simple tool to add commonly white listed domains to your Pi-Hole setup.

Project mention: Pihole database corrupted, -2 domains on adlist | /r/pihole | 2023-07-08

I don't know if it's related, but a few weeks ago I installed this https://github.com/anudeepND/whitelist For a while I didn't notice anything strange. Then a few days ago I noticed the same as you: -2 Domains on Adlists.

• Mycodo

  32 2,847 8.8 Python

  An environmental monitoring and regulation system

Project mention: Help with environmental parameters for a computer-controlled terrarium? | /r/SavageGarden | 2023-07-28

• tinypilot

  105 2,790 9.0 Python

  Use your Raspberry Pi as a browser-based KVM.

  

Project mention: Hrvach/Deskhop: Fast Desktop Switching Device | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-27

I make one that I put a lot of effort into documenting:

https://github.com/tiny-pilot/tinypilot

It's pretty easy to extend since it's just Python and vanilla HTML/JS/CSS, so there's not much of a toolchain to install.

You can buy it pre-made for $399 or make a DIY one for under $100.
