This is Hacker Public Radio Episode 4676, for 2026-07-06
|
||
|
|
Today's show is entitled, "HPR Community News for June 2026"
|
||
|
|
The host is HPR Volunteers and the duration is 00:34:53
|
||
|
|
The flag is Explicit, and the license is CC-BY-SA
|
||
|
|
The summary is "HPR Volunteer Ken talks about shows released and comments posted in June 2026"
|
||
|
|
Hi everybody, my name is Ken Fallon and you're listening to another episode of Hacker Public Radio.
|
||
|
|
This is the HPR Community News for June 2026.
|
||
|
|
It's just me on my own, I'm afraid. I've had some personal issues that just come up
|
||
|
|
and as a result, the people who had volunteered to host couldn't do it at that time.
|
||
|
|
So, sorry about that. Hopefully, next month things will work out a little bit better.
|
||
|
|
HPR is a community podcast that releases shows every week, Monday, Friday,
|
||
|
|
and any topic that is of interest to Hacker Disaster.
|
||
|
|
And this is the community news show put on by the HPR volunteers
|
||
|
|
so that we can give you up to date on what has been happening in and around the HPR community for the last month.
|
||
|
|
And the last month, in fact, was June 2026.
|
||
|
|
I get the privilege of introducing new hosts this month and our first new host was,
|
||
|
|
well, actually our only new host was Leonard Benshop,
|
||
|
|
who had the pleasure of not only meeting but attending his excellent lecture at the Teed Up event.
|
||
|
|
It was on the 4th.
|
||
|
|
Raised a few ears here, I have no doubt.
|
||
|
|
And if you want to check out that, the videos will be our online.
|
||
|
|
So, what we do here in the community news is we go over the shows that are posted
|
||
|
|
and then the comments that there were actually positive feedback.
|
||
|
|
Because, as you know, feedback is the currency we pay our hosts.
|
||
|
|
And the first show just so happened to be the community news from May 2026.
|
||
|
|
And there was one comment by Candy Clay Neater.
|
||
|
|
Busy weekend.
|
||
|
|
Hi, sorry I had to go before the recording started.
|
||
|
|
I was pretty busy over the weekday Friday volunteering at the convention.
|
||
|
|
And I had to go do something.
|
||
|
|
Hopefully, next community news, I can pop in.
|
||
|
|
Also, things are slowing down, starting to make a swing back to good, good again.
|
||
|
|
So, I may go and record a show soon.
|
||
|
|
Well, that is actually excellent news.
|
||
|
|
Not about that, but also that things are swinging back.
|
||
|
|
Always hear that.
|
||
|
|
Brian in Ohio had the show on the Arduino Unrelated Devices.
|
||
|
|
And this was about the Simon Sias game that he made for his grandson.
|
||
|
|
Which was an awesome thing to do.
|
||
|
|
And I really enjoyed this one.
|
||
|
|
He wrote it forth.
|
||
|
|
It would be very odd, as he has been known to record a few episodes on the topic.
|
||
|
|
So, I am assuming he and Leonard will be fast friends, if not in real life.
|
||
|
|
On a virtual sense, assured love.
|
||
|
|
No comments on that, I'm afraid.
|
||
|
|
Following day, we had Taj with Starting a Reading Habit.
|
||
|
|
And this one had two episodes.
|
||
|
|
It was about developing a habit of reading daily and the books he has read.
|
||
|
|
Antoine says, reading always been a lifesaver.
|
||
|
|
This alone makes the show very nice.
|
||
|
|
The other books on your list have beautiful covers.
|
||
|
|
About the cardio code, I was expecting some sharing of the specifics of the content.
|
||
|
|
So, we all could do with better cardio.
|
||
|
|
Nice to see you accomplish your audacious 20-a-year reading goal.
|
||
|
|
Thanks for the share.
|
||
|
|
And Kevi says, nice episode.
|
||
|
|
Thank you so much for posting.
|
||
|
|
I've never read any of the Battletech books, but I may keep an eye out for them.
|
||
|
|
I enjoy reading physical books.
|
||
|
|
I've tried e-book readers.
|
||
|
|
I really don't like the experience.
|
||
|
|
Although, I have found myself listening to audiobooks more.
|
||
|
|
Especially in the car or when being stuck on doing tasks.
|
||
|
|
Thanks for the tip and open reads.
|
||
|
|
I've never come across it before.
|
||
|
|
But I think we'll have a look for a review on upcoming episode next.
|
||
|
|
The next day, we had Mr. X with What's in My Component Box.
|
||
|
|
And this and the previous episodes were from the reserve queue.
|
||
|
|
Because this time of the year, the quantity of shows that we get are going down.
|
||
|
|
As is the amount of shows in the reserve queue as a result.
|
||
|
|
So, nothing to worry about as yet.
|
||
|
|
But we'll see if we're able to make it to the end of the summer without it becoming a real issue.
|
||
|
|
And in this one, Mr. X describes the contents of an old storage box.
|
||
|
|
Because, I must say, I'm rather guilty of this sort of thing myself.
|
||
|
|
Having component boxes.
|
||
|
|
Lots of stuff.
|
||
|
|
But very little time to do anything.
|
||
|
|
Kebby says,
|
||
|
|
Geeks are ahead of me, are ahead of their time.
|
||
|
|
In an age of recycling and repurposing, I find that geeks are always a step ahead of us.
|
||
|
|
We have been doing this for years.
|
||
|
|
I laughed out loud when you said that you weren't sure why you kept an item.
|
||
|
|
And thought, good, it isn't just an excellent show.
|
||
|
|
As always, Mr. X, keep up the good work.
|
||
|
|
Now that the EU has just, this month, introduced a 3 euro levy on every article coming from China.
|
||
|
|
We're going to find our components suddenly getting a lot more expensive.
|
||
|
|
And this one also came from the reserve queue.
|
||
|
|
Lots of gaps in the schedule, folks.
|
||
|
|
Don't feel guilty at all.
|
||
|
|
I mean, just sit back.
|
||
|
|
Let other people do all the work.
|
||
|
|
Why don't you?
|
||
|
|
Tips for glasses.
|
||
|
|
Cleaning glasses and mid-range progressive lenses.
|
||
|
|
This had three comments.
|
||
|
|
Yes, indeed.
|
||
|
|
Trey says,
|
||
|
|
Avoid hand soap.
|
||
|
|
Great recommendation.
|
||
|
|
I do avoid hand soaps as many include lotion residue.
|
||
|
|
I may check out some of the mid-range progressives.
|
||
|
|
I use dedicated computer glasses.
|
||
|
|
Great, but I need to remember to change back to prescription lenses when I get up and walk around much.
|
||
|
|
Jim DeVore says,
|
||
|
|
Geeks are lazy too.
|
||
|
|
After many years of experimenting, I settled out on clean 100% cotton washcloths and shampoo.
|
||
|
|
Before I get in the shower every day, I put a bit of shampoo on my glasses, wash them in the shower as it warms up, and then dry them on a fresh one.
|
||
|
|
I use it after cleaning my glasses to shower, and after drying it, goes into the laundry hamper on the next cycle.
|
||
|
|
Cheap, fast, easy, and I'm not managing any microfiber cloths and fancy eyeglass clean or chemical.
|
||
|
|
Operator says,
|
||
|
|
Glasses.
|
||
|
|
I want to thank you.
|
||
|
|
I'm glad the queue was empty because I recently bought a new glasses at Costco.
|
||
|
|
I feel like I overpaid for it, which makes sense since I have not worn glasses or contacts for 15 years.
|
||
|
|
My vision is changing as I age.
|
||
|
|
I'm now 46.
|
||
|
|
Even with large 49 ultrawide monitor, I use the font size to read comfortably.
|
||
|
|
I ordered two monitors today.
|
||
|
|
Wish me luck.
|
||
|
|
Well, that was actually a good tip there.
|
||
|
|
I use something like baby towels, cotton cloths that we got for the kids, and they're great at cleaning glasses, which is an ordinary dish soap.
|
||
|
|
The following day, we had a show from Swift 110.
|
||
|
|
I review my Musi Cozy Sleep and Exercise Bluetooth Health Band, and surprisingly enough, I have this exact same thing and will give the exact same recommendation.
|
||
|
|
So, well done there.
|
||
|
|
It just goes to show that even I can be outdone with topics to discuss, because this one has two comments.
|
||
|
|
Candy Caneater says, Wishlist, I often listen to podcasts and stuff when I go to bed, so using one of these would be very useful.
|
||
|
|
The only downside would be figuring how to use it with my MP3 player, since it doesn't support Bluetooth.
|
||
|
|
Interesting, Kevi says.
|
||
|
|
I have never heard of these before, but I think the concept is great.
|
||
|
|
My wife has recently been asking me to research a set of headphones for her to use in the gym.
|
||
|
|
I will suggest these.
|
||
|
|
Thanks for sharing.
|
||
|
|
And just to talk to Candy Caneater's one there, there's a USB devices that you can get with a 3.5mm jack, and you can plug that into your music player, and it'll take the audio from your music player and convert it into Bluetooth.
|
||
|
|
I have one here in the drawer doing nothing.
|
||
|
|
Drop me a line, and I'll send it over to you.
|
||
|
|
And another point on these is that they actually act as eye masks as well.
|
||
|
|
So if it's bright outside, you can put them over your eyes and actually go to sleep.
|
||
|
|
Awesome!
|
||
|
|
The following day, we had Unix Curio Part 8, Comparing Files.
|
||
|
|
Finding out the diff without using diff.
|
||
|
|
Again, Vance is doing an absolutely fantastic series here on this.
|
||
|
|
It's really engaging people, because there's five comments, but it's engaging me as well.
|
||
|
|
Every single time, he comes up with something that's really cool, and you kind of know, but kind of know some of the commands.
|
||
|
|
Some of the commands I use quite a lot, and sometimes it's really nice just to get the background history.
|
||
|
|
X-Man Monk says, great show again.
|
||
|
|
Another great show of these often forgotten commands.
|
||
|
|
Glad to hear you have more episodes in the work.
|
||
|
|
Look forward to hearing them.
|
||
|
|
Candy Caneater says, comparison.
|
||
|
|
CMP is, while not as useful as it may have been, still quite useful for testing whether two files are bit copies of each other.
|
||
|
|
Misty Jack says, HPR4657 uses COM.
|
||
|
|
COM is actually a very, very useful program in scripts, if you know how to make good use of it.
|
||
|
|
For example, Bash can be fairly slow when a classic Bing algorithm over large amounts of data.
|
||
|
|
Misty Jack is very close to an episode, just saying.
|
||
|
|
I continue.
|
||
|
|
However, as you can reformat the data so it can be compared with COM, you can then use COM as a filter without any loops.
|
||
|
|
As an example, it's an application, a simple loop, 3.7 seconds to work its way through the data, which is far too long.
|
||
|
|
However, using awk and sort to reformat one file, and the combination of find, cut, sort, and awk, unique and awk, and the directory structure, generate a second file, and then compare them with COM.
|
||
|
|
I was able to filter down the information to just the records that had relevant changes, and then use the slower looping algorithm on those.
|
||
|
|
That cut the time down to 0.150 seconds, more or less instantaneous from a user perspective.
|
||
|
|
Despite this mess appearing to have a lot more transformations in it, 25 times faster.
|
||
|
|
This is because there were actually fewer calls to commands in the second algorithm, even though more different commands were involved.
|
||
|
|
So COM is a very useful command to know, and if you have a lot of information to process, it should be one of those tools that you turn to when figuring out the best way to do it.
|
||
|
|
Actually, I have, right now, literally before the show, used that.
|
||
|
|
I went around to all my data on NAS, met MD5 sums of all the files, and then went to old backup disks, and did the same thing over there.
|
||
|
|
Awk'd the MD5, sorted and unique them, and then used the COM command to compare "-1-2", giving me the ones that are in common,
|
||
|
|
so that I know all those files that I found in common on the backup disk I could get rid of,
|
||
|
|
and it brought down my backup disk from 8 terabytes to 2 terabytes.
|
||
|
|
So I can now go through the 2 terabytes and figure out what it is in there that I need to backup, and what I need to save.
|
||
|
|
So a very useful command.
|
||
|
|
However I can, that should have been a show.
|
||
|
|
Yes, it should have been, but nobody's here to tell me otherwise.
|
||
|
|
Van says, appreciate the comments.
|
||
|
|
When I was uploading the episode, I started to feel like maybe I'm selling COM a bit short.
|
||
|
|
Nice to hear that it's useful, SkiJack.
|
||
|
|
While its functionality can easily replicate it with cut and awk, those utilities can certainly make use of the output COM.
|
||
|
|
Interesting to read that your experience in terms of runtime.
|
||
|
|
I have taken to using a single call tag, awk, in situations where I might otherwise call on several in the pipeline.
|
||
|
|
Your comments is a good reminder that if something will be better, instead of automatically assuming that one tool or sets of tools will be faster than other.
|
||
|
|
Whiskey Jack says, reply to Vance on awk in HBR4657.
|
||
|
|
awk is another extremely useful command to know in terms of improving performance, in case where you might otherwise need to use loops.
|
||
|
|
I don't have any relevant numbers at hand in this instance, but I know that I have increased performance very significantly by structuring an algorithm to allow use of awk.
|
||
|
|
The history of awk may be a good subject for a Unix curio episode.
|
||
|
|
Expect would be another good command to cover as well.
|
||
|
|
I have used this for scripts login to test VMs over SSH in cases where SSH wouldn't work for some reason.
|
||
|
|
Then the next day we had an episode by Whiskey Jack himself, audio revisited.
|
||
|
|
This is a follow-up to the series on Simple Podcast show with the result of filtering experiments.
|
||
|
|
Experiments responds to quite a bit of the feedback he got on other apps.
|
||
|
|
No comments there for that.
|
||
|
|
Command line fun, where Kevi uses FFmpeg record an episode for HBR.
|
||
|
|
Two comments.
|
||
|
|
Candy Canator says, FFmpeg encatenation is frustration-fusing.
|
||
|
|
But according to the wiki, with a link, you can just use FFmpeg-F, CONCAST-I, listoffiles.text, output.
|
||
|
|
For some reason, it forces you to use files.
|
||
|
|
That's a list of file names instead of being able to use a glob.
|
||
|
|
But it works pretty okay.
|
||
|
|
Whiskey Jack says,
|
||
|
|
When concatenating audio files using FFmpeg, you can create text files using the audio file with printf, space, or double-quote, file, space, single-quote, percent, s, single-quote, forward, slash, n, double-quote, space, asterisk, dot, flack, pipe that, or redirect that in a pod, seglist, dot, text, and then use FFmpeg.f, on cat, dash, safe, space, zero, dash, I, pod, seglist, space, full pod.
|
||
|
|
If you're using SOX, you can concatenate the files using the following SOX, it's asterisk, dot, flack, full pod, dot, flack.
|
||
|
|
I covered concatenating audio files using FFmpeg in HPR 4608 in my series on simple podcasting.
|
||
|
|
And these examples are in the show notes as reference for anyone who's interested.
|
||
|
|
The FFmpeg list file is probably useful for cases where you want to order the files manually rather than shell-globbing order.
|
||
|
|
If it turns out to be a double post for the subject, the electric power went out just as I was attempting to send it the first time, so I didn't think the first one went through.
|
||
|
|
It all got sorted.
|
||
|
|
The next episode has no comments, but it's from Ahuka in his series on science fiction about Robert A. Hyland and Future History Part 1.
|
||
|
|
And as always, excellent links in the show notes and the entire blog post from Ahuka's own blog has been copied over here for your reference.
|
||
|
|
Nice episode.
|
||
|
|
I'm really enjoying these.
|
||
|
|
Unfortunately, adding more and more stuff that I have yet to read to my list.
|
||
|
|
Not only that, all the Doctor Who episodes are piling up on me as well.
|
||
|
|
The following day, we had laptop computer woes or how I learned to love my tech hoarding.
|
||
|
|
There you go.
|
||
|
|
Another saves the day.
|
||
|
|
Claudio Miranda.
|
||
|
|
We're all guilty of it.
|
||
|
|
And this one base.
|
||
|
|
Claudio is able to repair his by basically grabbing parts from other laptops.
|
||
|
|
Candy Caneater says, uses smiley face.
|
||
|
|
I'm always nice seeing a repair when, especially if it's done with the parts.
|
||
|
|
We feel justified for refusing to get rid of any of my devices.
|
||
|
|
X-Man Monk says, great show.
|
||
|
|
Hey, Claudio.
|
||
|
|
Great show.
|
||
|
|
Enjoy hearing about BSD, even if it's hardware related.
|
||
|
|
Claudio replies to these guys.
|
||
|
|
Thanks for the comments.
|
||
|
|
Feel good to be able to use what I had left over parts in the repair device still in action.
|
||
|
|
By the way, the update on my Evo laptop.
|
||
|
|
My son's grandfather was able to find the problem.
|
||
|
|
A shorted MOSFET caused by a blown cap?
|
||
|
|
Interesting.
|
||
|
|
He tested with one E had on hand and it turned on and booted.
|
||
|
|
Once he finds a MOSFET with the correct rating, it should be back in action.
|
||
|
|
Yes.
|
||
|
|
We love this.
|
||
|
|
What are the answers I need to the questions I don't know to ask?
|
||
|
|
Antoine asking us the hard questions.
|
||
|
|
Nice little show.
|
||
|
|
I'm surprised there haven't been more comments about this, but it could be that it's approaching
|
||
|
|
some notifications here in the Northern Hemisphere.
|
||
|
|
But as always, an interesting life.
|
||
|
|
The following day, we had another episode where there are no comments.
|
||
|
|
It was on my journey to the hallway track at Tidos.
|
||
|
|
And I'd like to thank everybody there for putting on such a fantastic, welcoming event.
|
||
|
|
It was really, really, really enjoyable.
|
||
|
|
I was super tired after it.
|
||
|
|
I don't think I'm still over it, to be honest.
|
||
|
|
But it was absolutely fantastic and I really enjoyed it.
|
||
|
|
Definitely going back.
|
||
|
|
The dude responded to our not having a lot of shows by adding a show himself on the no-input
|
||
|
|
tutorial on how to build a drone box.
|
||
|
|
There were no comments on this, but I had seen episodes on what a drone box was.
|
||
|
|
I kind of knew of it in a roughish sense, but this was a good explanation of what it is
|
||
|
|
and how to build them.
|
||
|
|
With two YouTube video links there to give you more of an explanation.
|
||
|
|
Then we had Lee talking to Benno about Pokemon Go, the augmented reality game,
|
||
|
|
and how much he enjoys playing it and stuff.
|
||
|
|
Ironically enough, on the very day where it was announced that Pokemon Go training
|
||
|
|
was going to be used to train military drones.
|
||
|
|
Yeah, so there's no comments on that one.
|
||
|
|
How I got into tech, and this is the first one.
|
||
|
|
First Show by Leonard, describes the computers that he used, what he ran, and what he liked
|
||
|
|
about them, as he seems to have a love affair with Forth and Why Not.
|
||
|
|
Gen 2, IBM PCs, the Latte, Latte, language transforming techs, never heard of that.
|
||
|
|
Joe's own editor, I used that in college, actually, not a million miles from Nano.
|
||
|
|
Wendigo says, nice to meet you.
|
||
|
|
Thanks for the introduction, Leonard.
|
||
|
|
I really enjoyed hearing about your path through computing.
|
||
|
|
Although, it was very amusing that you thought you arrived to computing late,
|
||
|
|
as you predated my own introduction to computing by a decade.
|
||
|
|
Looking forward to hearing your next episode.
|
||
|
|
Candy Canator says, hello.
|
||
|
|
I like this episode.
|
||
|
|
It's nice to see other people's introduction to the hobby.
|
||
|
|
I agree with Wendigo.
|
||
|
|
That is amusing you got into it late, since I also got into computing much later.
|
||

Vance coming in here again with Unix Curios Part Printf.
|
||
|
|
I found this episode, personally, very revealing, because I had been following,
|
||
|
|
I had seen it coming up recently, and I started using Printf,
|
||
|
|
but explored a few gotchas in there about the use of the command
|
||
|
|
when it is and isn't safe to use it in comparison to Echo.
|
||
|
|
Brilliant show notes, as always, with these shows,
|
||
|
|
and lots and lots and lots of reference.
|
||
|
|
Candy Canator says, learned something I had no idea.
|
||
|
|
You could use percentes with multiple arguments,
|
||
|
|
the same line multiple times.
|
||
|
|
That would definitely be useful for some bash scripts.
|
||
|
|
I personally moved to using Ruby for my own scripts,
|
||
|
|
but I still really cool to...
|
||
|
|
Introduction to Ruby there.
|
||
|
|
Candy Canator, thank you very much.
|
||
|
|
Here, first episode.
|
||
|
|
Hi, I'm doing an episode on...
|
||
|
|
Don't forget to introduce yourself.
|
||
|
|
Tell us what Ruby is, why we might want to use it,
|
||
|
|
what platforms it's available on,
|
||
|
|
and a basic Hello World script.

Whiskey Jack, comments.
|
||
|
|
Oh, here again.
|
||
|
|
Whiskey Jack 467 Printf.
|
||
|
|
This is a very interesting series.
|
||
|
|
I hope that you will continue with it.
|
||
|
|
There are a few other very useful things
|
||
|
|
that you can do with Printf that I've made use of.
|
||
|
|
In a previous episode, you mentioned
|
||
|
|
that if you wish to concatenate several audio files
|
||
|
|
into one using FFM page,
|
||
|
|
create a file containing the names of the files,
|
||
|
|
plus the little text.
|
||
|
|
You could write a loop,
|
||
|
|
writing out each line of the file one at a time,
|
||
|
|
or you could use a single Printf command as follows.
|
||
|
|
Printf, colon, double quote, file, space, single quote,
|
||
|
|
present, S, single quote, forward slash, N, double quote,
|
||
|
|
Asterix, the flag, inter, pod, say, dust.
|
||
|
|
This will create a file consisting of multiple lines of text,
|
||
|
|
each in the form of the word file,
|
||
|
|
followed by the name of the file,
|
||
|
|
and then the no loop is necessary.
|
||
|
|
Another example came up with something
|
||
|
|
that I had worked on yesterday.
|
||
|
|
I need to print a floating point time value
|
||
|
|
by combining separate seconds and millisecond numbers.
|
||
|
|
However, the millisecond numbers is not zero padded on the left,
|
||
|
|
so this will give the incorrect value if used as is.
|
||
|
|
It is readily solved, however, by using Printf
|
||
|
|
with the zero pad the number.
|
||
|
|
Padsec equals dollar open bracket,
|
||
|
|
executing a command in there.
|
||
|
|
Printf, single quote, percent, zero, six, single quote,
|
||
|
|
and then the variable time sex, close, expansion.
|
||
|
|
So it would convert time sex and prepad it.
|
||
|
|
I was able to take the result
|
||
|
|
and append it to a string containing the time in seconds
|
||
|
|
followed by a decimal separator
|
||
|
|
and then the padded time in microseconds.
|
||
|
|
It is things like this that makes shell scripting fun to you.
|
||
|
|
X-Man Monks has another great show.
|
||
|
|
Thanks for all your work on these episodes.
|
||
|
|
Lots of good info about Printf.
|
||
|
|
I usually fuzz around with Echo
|
||
|
|
to get it to work on my machine,
|
||
|
|
but may not work on others.
|
||
|
|
There are good reasons for using Printf instead.
|
||
|
|
The next day, we had Whiskeyjack
|
||
|
|
with nuclear power technology follow-up on safety.
|
||
|
|
And this was in response to questions
|
||
|
|
posed by listeners on the comparative safety
|
||
|
|
of different energy.
|
||
|
|
This is an absolutely excellent episode
|
||
|
|
as he discusses in detail
|
||
|
|
the difficulty of comparing apples with apples,
|
||
|
|
apples with pears,
|
||
|
|
or in this case,
|
||
|
|
the different type of electricity generation.
|
||
|
|
And also brought into account
|
||
|
|
things that I hadn't considered
|
||
|
|
about the dangers of dams collapsing
|
||
|
|
and well worth a read
|
||
|
|
and a very interesting conclusion,
|
||
|
|
which I won't spoil for you here.
|
||
|
|
Then the next day, we had HVR Beer Garden.
|
||
|
|
Super strong burgers.
|
||
|
|
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
|
||
|
|
This, I love the fact,
|
||
|
|
hearing the history of these beers
|
||
|
|
and where they come from.
|
||
|
|
Great episodes.
|
||
|
|
It's nice to see Paul is joining along
|
||
|
|
quite often at these shows.
|
||
|
|
The next upcoming beers
|
||
|
|
that they're going to be doing
|
||
|
|
is a double IPA,
|
||
|
|
Belgian Blonde,
|
||
|
|
and double dry hopped IPA.
|
||
|
|
As far as I'm concerned,
|
||
|
|
the Belgian Blonde.
|
||
|
|
Not a big hop fan.
|
||
|
|
Although, interestingly,
|
||
|
|
we grow hops in our back garden.
|
||
|
|
On the 26th,
|
||
|
|
we had Playing Civilizations Part 5,
|
||
|
|
Part 13,
|
||
|
|
and of course,
|
||
|
|
by a hookah.
|
||
|
|
And this time,
|
||
|
|
he was playing
|
||
|
|
Diplomatic Victory Part 2.
|
||
|
|
Trades and luxuries,
|
||
|
|
buildings,
|
||
|
|
wonders,
|
||
|
|
social policies,
|
||
|
|
and merchant cities and stuff.
|
||
|
|
I find these interesting.
|
||
|
|
Not that I'm into gaming or anything,
|
||
|
|
but I really am enjoying this
|
||
|
|
as that I don't get the deal
|
||
|
|
or never sit down
|
||
|
|
and play that game.
|
||
|
|
On the 29th,
|
||
|
|
we had an operator
|
||
|
|
with Protocol AI,
|
||
|
|
decentering Google,
|
||
|
|
local known,
|
||
|
|
the RAG versus
|
||
|
|
the RIP prep debate,
|
||
|
|
and building a protocol AI.
|
||
|
|
And RAG is
|
||
|
|
Retrieval Augmented Generation.
|
||
|
|
This was a nice episode.
|
||
|
|
Good to see the show notes.
|
||
|
|
I strongly suspect
|
||
|
|
they're AI-assisted,
|
||
|
|
but it's actually quite good.
|
||
|
|
It's no harm.
|
||
|
|
It gives,
|
||
|
|
goes happy enough with it
|
||
|
|
and happy enough
|
||
|
|
to release it as Creative Commons.
|
||
|
|
So I think we'll go with that.
|
||
|
|
So a good episode here.
|
||
|
|
And I like,
|
||
|
|
I'd like to actually hear more
|
||
|
|
about local AI model.
|
||
|
|
Clearly,
|
||
|
|
this very thing.
|
||
|
|
Preferably free,
|
||
|
|
Libre,
|
||
|
|
open source ones
|
||
|
|
that we could run here
|
||
|
|
locally
|
||
|
|
on our own machine.
|
||
|
|
Time is not,
|
||
|
|
it's not the issue.
|
||
|
|
We're ruling off solar power
|
||
|
|
in the background,
|
||
|
|
so it's not an environmental waste.
|
||
|
|
And we could use that
|
||
|
|
to produce show notes
|
||
|
|
for older episodes
|
||
|
|
that have not as much attention
|
||
|
|
to the show notes
|
||
|
|
that we have today.
|
||
|
|
So,
|
||
|
|
get on that, folks.
|
||
|
|
Send me in some shows
|
||
|
|
on that time.
|
||
|
|
The next,
|
||
|
|
and possibly,
|
||
|
|
yes,
|
||
|
|
the last show of the month.
|
||
|
|
I just squashed there two
|
||
|
|
from Tidos.
|
||
|
|
Hey, mum,
|
||
|
|
I'm on Spotify.
|
||
|
|
It was either that
|
||
|
|
or a show from the Reserve Queue.
|
||
|
|
So I wanted to get this.
|
||
|
|
Thought you might be interested
|
||
|
|
in hearing my presentation
|
||
|
|
that I gave about HPR.
|
||
|
|
I wanted to have a template talk
|
||
|
|
about HPR as a project.
|
||
|
|
And this was an excellent opportunity
|
||
|
|
to give that
|
||
|
|
in a safe environment.
|
||
|
|
But it might be a template
|
||
|
|
that other people
|
||
|
|
who are giving presentations
|
||
|
|
on HPR.
|
||
|
|
I would love your feedback,
|
||
|
|
listeners,
|
||
|
|
to this show
|
||
|
|
if you could go back
|
||
|
|
and just listen to that presentation
|
||
|
|
and some tips and tricks.
|
||
|
|
Don't worry,
|
||
|
|
be constructive criticism.
|
||
|
|
I will hate you for it,
|
||
|
|
but I'll get over it.
|
||
|
|
But I do want to put
|
||
|
|
a presentation together
|
||
|
|
about what worked.
|
||
|
|
I found that at the booth,
|
||
|
|
this presentation,
|
||
|
|
I was able to answer
|
||
|
|
any of the questions
|
||
|
|
that I was given.
|
||
|
|
And that's from my experience
|
||
|
|
as at other booths as well.
|
||
|
|
So I was happy to see
|
||
|
|
that when people came
|
||
|
|
to the booth,
|
||
|
|
I could just simply
|
||
|
|
fast forward
|
||
|
|
in the presentation
|
||
|
|
to that slide
|
||
|
|
and be able to,
|
||
|
|
you know,
|
||
|
|
give people
|
||
|
|
the information
|
||
|
|
that I wanted
|
||
|
|
them to have.
|
||
|
|
Well, that was all
|
||
|
|
the shows
|
||
|
|
for this month.
|
||
|
|
So we,
|
||
|
|
there were some
|
||
|
|
comments on
|
||
|
|
previous episode.
|
||
|
|
One from
|
||
|
|
2024,
|
||
|
|
August,
|
||
|
|
and it was
|
||
|
|
by Bob.
|
||
|
|
No,
|
||
|
|
the show was
|
||
|
|
by Bob,
|
||
|
|
and Jan
|
||
|
|
sent a comment
|
||
|
|
to Bob was saying
|
||
|
|
downloading
|
||
|
|
out of copyright
|
||
|
|
music using
|
||
|
|
tour proxy
|
||
|
|
with YouTube
|
||
|
|
DLP,
|
||
|
|
YT DLP
|
||
|
|
to get
|
||
|
|
the movies.
|
||
|
|
And Jan
|
||
|
|
says subtitles.
|
||
|
|
If you want
|
||
|
|
the subtitles
|
||
|
|
as well,
|
||
|
|
you can add
|
||
|
|
a write,
|
||
|
|
dash dash,
|
||
|
|
write dash
|
||
|
|
subs,
|
||
|
|
space,
|
||
|
|
dash dash,
|
||
|
|
sub dash
|
||
|
|
format,
|
||
|
|
space SRT,
|
||
|
|
and then the proxy
|
||
|
|
bit.
|
||
|
|
That was that.
|
||
|
|
Then we had
|
||
|
|
on
|
||
|
|
ham radio
|
||
|
|
licensing
|
||
|
|
by Lee.
|
||
|
|
We had
|
||
|
|
RJ saying
|
||
|
|
very interesting
|
||
|
|
as always.
|
||
|
|
Very interesting
|
||
|
|
show as always.
|
||
|
|
I love your
|
||
|
|
podcasts.
|
||
|
|
I'm new to
|
||
|
|
HBR,
|
||
|
|
just found out
|
||
|
|
about it a
|
||
|
|
week ago,
|
||
|
|
a few weeks
|
||
|
|
ago,
|
||
|
|
and you've
|
||
|
|
been the one
|
||
|
|
I know I
|
||
|
|
can always
|
||
|
|
go to for
|
||
|
|
an interesting
|
||
|
|
show.
|
||
|
|
It's uppity
|
||
|
|
down thing,
|
||
|
|
a technical
|
||
|
|
term for the
|
||
|
|
test of
|
||
|
|
an aerial
|
||
|
|
smiley face.
|
||
|
|
And RJ,
|
||
|
|
don't be afraid
|
||
|
|
to send in
|
||
|
|
your first
|
||
|
|
introductory
|
||
|
|
show to
|
||
|
|
us.
|
||
|
|
We would
|
||
|
|
love to
|
||
|
|
hear that.
|
||
|
|
Lee,
|
||
|
|
of course,
|
||
|
|
responded
|
||
|
|
saying,
|
||
|
|
Aireals,
|
||
|
|
thankfully,
|
||
|
|
the foundation
|
||
|
|
exam is
|
||
|
|
multiple choice,
|
||
|
|
but this is
|
||
|
|
important to
|
||
|
|
recognize the
|
||
|
|
following terms.
|
||
|
|
Pointy signal
|
||
|
|

|
He's cracking me
|
||
|
|
up.
|
||
|
|
Oh,
|
||
|
|
okay.
|
||
|
|
Next one,
|
||
|
|
we had
|
||
|
|
responses to
|
||
|
|
comments on
|
||
|
|
HBR4424.
|
||
|
|
And Archer72
|
||
|
|
says,
|
||
|
|
not quite a
|
||
|
|
complete script.
|
||
|
|
If you guys
|
||
|
|
have gone off
|
||
|
|
on a debate
|
||
|
|
that could have
|
||
|
|
been a show,
|
||
|
|
I will get
|
||
|
|
very,
|
||
|
|
very annoyed
|
||
|
|
with a complete
|
||
|
|
script.
|
||
|
|
Six.
|
||
|
|
Last question.
|
||
|
|
Ken.
|
||
|
|
Hi, Ken.
|
||
|
|
I did some more
|
||
|
|
testing and the
|
||
|
|
script is not
|
||
|
|
quite ready.
|
||
|
|
Breaks on
|
||
|
|
some renamed
|
||
|
|
files leaving,
|
||
|
|
for example,
|
||
|
|
hbr1234.org
|
||
|
|
in Pogboat.
|
||
|
|
I'll try again.

Whiskey Jack

|
|
says,
|
||
|
|
in response to
|
||
|
|
this episode,
|
||
|
|
I have been
|
||
|
|
following the
|
||
|
|
saga on the
|
||
|
|
download podcast
|
||
|
|
violin.
|
||
|
|
I'm still
|
||
|
|
confused now
|
||
|
|
as ever when
|
||
|
|
it comes to
|
||
|
|
understanding
|
||
|
|
what this is
|
||
|
|
all about.
|
||
|
|
I still don't
|
||
|
|
understand why
|
||
|
|
Newboat needs
|
||
|
|
to come into
|
||
|
|
the picture.
|
||
|
|
I use a
|
||
|
|
crime job to
|
||
|
|
run a
|
||
|
|
bash.
|
||
|
|
Because it's
|
||
|
|
the podcaster
|
||
|
|
that he's chosen
|
||
|
|
to use.
|
||
|
|
We can't
|
||
|
|
all decide
|
||
|
|
to use
|
||
|
|
VI and
|
||
|
|
leave
|
||
|
|
Emacs
|
||
|
|
out of
|
||
|
|
the picture
|
||
|
|
or Nano.
|
||
|
|
Anyway,
|
||
|
|
back to
|
||
|
|
this comment.
|
||
|
|
I use
|
||
|
|
a cron job
|
||
|

to run

a bash
|

|

|
|
They just
|
||
|
|
appear in
|
||
|

a directory
|

that I
|

have set

aside for

|
all the
|

|
|
new

podcasts.

When

||
|
|
some
|
||
|
|
podcasts
|
||
|
|
have
|
||
|
|
rubbish
|
||
|
|
audio
|
||
|
|
filenames
|
||
|
|
in their
|
||
|
|
RSS,
|
||
|
|
I have
|
||
|
|
that
|
||
|
|
have to
|
||
|
|
be
|
||
|
|
fixed.
|
||
|
|
HBR isn't
|
||
|
|
one of
|
||
|
|
them.
|
||
|
|
The URL
|
||
|
|
is just
|
||
|
|
fine.
|
||
|
|
What you
|
||
|
|
need to
|
||
|
|
do is
|
||
|
|
extract
|
||
|
|
the
|
||
|
|
audio
|
||
|
|
filename
|
||
|
|
from
|
||
|
|
the
|
||
|
|
RSS
|
||
|
|
fee
|
||
|
|
using
|
||
|
|
something
|
||
|
|
like
|
||
|
|
base
|
||
|
|
name
|
||
|
|
and
|
||
|
|
then
|
||
|
|
specify
|
||
|
|
the
|
||
|
|
name
|
||
|
|
to
|
||
|
|
wget
|
||
|
|
in the
|
||
|
|
dash
|
||
|
|
O
|
||
|
|
option
|
||
|
|
for
|
||
|
|
output
|
||
|
|
filename.
|
||
|
|
The result
|
||
|
|
is the
|
||
|
|
name
|
||
|
|
such as
|
||
|
|
hbr4644.mp3
|
||
|
|
being saved.
|
||
|
|
No after
|
||
|
|
the factory
|
||
|
|
naming is
|
||
|
|
necessary.
|
||
|
|
I'll do
|
||
|
|
an episode
|
||
|
|
on a
|
||
|
|
simplified
|
||
|
|
version
|
||
|
|
of what
|
||
|
|
I use
|
||
|
|
for
|
||
|
|
hbr.
|
||
|
|
The next
|
||
|
|
dot I
|
||
|
|
can use
|
||
|
|
is in
|
||
|
|
July.
|
||
|
|
So you'll
|
||
|
|
have to
|
||
|
|
wait till
|
||
|
|
then.
|
||
|
|
You'll
|
||
|
|
also go
|
||
|
|
to the
|
||
|
|
future
|
||
|
|
feed
|
||
|
|
comes
|
||
|
|
in.

to

try

a

fix.
|

This

is

further

proof

not

a

many

AI.

Still

it

was

a

fun

for

I

I

went

wrong.

the main
|
||
|
|
reason is
|
||
|
|
that the
|
||
|
|
algorithm
|
||
|
|
reduces
|
||
|
|
happiness
|
||
|
|
your
|
||
|
|
population
|
||
|
|
goes up
|
||
|
|
and the
|
||
|
|
number
|
||
|
|
of
|
||
|
|
cities
|
||
|
|
goes down
|
||
|
|
now I
|
||
|
|
can tell
|
||
|
|
a story
|
||
|
|
about how
|
||
|
|
large
|
||
|
|
sprawling
|
||
|
|
empires
|
||
|
|
tend to
|
||
|
|
not pay
|
||
|
|
attention
|
||
|
|
to desires
|
||
|
|
of the
|
||
|
|
average
|
||
|
|
citizen
|
||
|
|
and that
|
||
|
|
was
|
||
|
|
plausible
|
||
|
|
I
|
||
|
|
reckon
|
||
|
|
that Rome
|
||
|
|
did
|
||
|
|
reasonably
|
||
|
|
well
|
||
|
|
for a
|
||
|
|
few
|
||
|
|
centuries
|
||
|
|
nonetheless

we're

just

putting
