Autoformatting Source Code in Emacs

I’ve seen a talk about this at BOB conference at Berlin some years ago. I learned a lot about DSLs in scheme, also the talk was highly entertaining. I’d recommend it for anyone into scheme or lisp.

Sure. The cameras are Tapo C320WS. They are cheap, waterproof, connect to wifi if there’s no ethernet and can stream video in two resolutions at the same time. I use the lower resolution for motion detection and the higher resolution for object detection and event recording.

The whole thing is running in docker-compose on Raspberry Pi and Coral TPU.

I have set up two zones per camera: The “yard” and the “entry” which is directly in front of the door. Whenever someone is at the entry, I get a notification. Since I walk these paths myself, I have hundreds of test points. Apart from that, I’m happy to _always_ get a notification before the bell rings. And I never have to open the door before I know who is there.

The “yard” part, I review every week. Here, of course, I have no data to compare it to, so I cannot say if it’s missing anything.

So yes, I’m certain it misses nothing that’s important to me - is there someone at my door and who is it.

I’ve been using Frigate for six months on a raspberry pi 4 with a Google Coral TPU. It’s connected to 2 network cameras streaming in 2mp each.

Frigate standalone works super smooth with no hiccups at all. I am using object detection for people and have not yet had a false positive or false negative. Additionally, I record not only the events, but but also a 24/7 video. Frigate takes care of garbage collecting old assets.

I have it hooked up to my Home Assistant running on the same raspberry pi. From there, I get notifications to my phone which include a live video, snapshot and video recording. The UX and configuration options are way better than any commercial end user product I have found.

It’s been a literal lifesaver, also fun and easy to use. Would recommend 10 of 10. I have no affiliation with the maintainers.

Everyone can judge for themselves what is similar and what is not. Having said so, organice has about four times the commits of org-web. It shares a common history, but the last few years have diverged a lot. Also, there is nothing hidden, you’ve found the info right there in the top level readme as you’ve said yourself.

As for bad style, the same could be said about a random person in a forum shaming the many hours of work by a diverse group of hard working individuals putting their work up for free.

First, let me say that they share a lot of similarities. They are both standalone applications to view and edit Org mode files. They are both Free and Open Source applications.

They do take slightly different approaches, though. orgzly is an Android application. organice is a PWA, so you can install it on Android, iOS, or use your desktop browser.

You're right to be sceptical. Org mode syntax is not easy. That's why a lot of work went into the parser. organice has a big set of tests for its parser and aims to be 100% compatible with Org mode syntax. I'm using it daily since years on 5-digit LOC Org files and don't get a one byte diff where I shouldn't (apart from some documented bugs). If you find a discrepancy, changing/adding tests, as well as modifying the parser is usually not too hard.

If you have a smartphone, then you can use the customizable capture templates[1] (similar to Emacs) from organice. You can even use bookmarklets to capture web content, and have Siri integration.

Limited networking is not a big issue, because organice can cache your Org file locally until you can sync later.

If you do get around to building an SMS to Org mode gateway, I'd be interested to see a post about it, though. Good luck with it!

Hi there, maintainer here.

I'm using organice with my on-technical wife for all kinds of tasks and it works well. She even introduced it at her workplace(;

I agree that notifications are very important to have. For the time being, I'm using this workflow: https://200ok.ch/posts/2022-02-13_integrating_org_mode_agend...

Of course, this workflow is only for a technical (Emacs) user. The reason having gone this way is that iOS does not allow for web notifications. Having said so, I'm also currently working on a branch to integrate customizable reminders and deploy organice into the Android and iOS stores. Then it'll have native notifications on all available platforms.

Dropbox Backup 4 years ago

As a paying Dropbox of many years, I’d love for this to be available on Linux. I’ve tried to use Dropbox as a backup backend (for example with reclone), but with a great many files, I’m always hitting API quotas making it impossible to use Dropbox for backups.

If somebody has a working solution, I’d be very happy to hear about it.
