VimGolf is a challenge game where the goal is to edit a given piece of text into a desired final form using as few keystrokes as possible in Vim. Some time ago, I built a rough portable station using a Raspberry Pi and a spare monitor. It was initially used to play VimGolf at the SUSE Prague office and later repurposed for public events. It uses a custom VimGolf menu script and Ansible playbooks to make configuring your own VimGolf station easy.
A friend of mine asked for help expanding an image recognition system he is implementing at work. The Roboflow pipeline analyzes images of open trucks and tags all visible cargo with the appropriate label and dimensions.
The goal was to extend the output to display the percentage of the truck’s maximum capacity being used. To achieve this, I integrated a custom Python script into the existing pipeline.
I grew tired of unlocking my phone and starting a timer every time I brewed tea. Running a simple shell script is far more convenient, and writing it also gave me a chance to refresh my dulled shell scripting skills.
