Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Pothole scans ...

Today's run tried for 83000, and it found two (real) potholes

However, it lost synchronization at 82632, so I'll rerun that part of the scan.

I'm testing a modification of the script to halt a run when synchronization is lost, but that is not ready for use.

Total Command Lines found: 34

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Potholes scan ...

In the days since the start of the current series, I have observed failures of the process in the vicinity of 600 posts .... I'm working on (trying to find) a solution to improve the script to deal with whatever is going on.  In the mean time, it is simple enough to break up runs into 500 post chunks.

Today's runs will be scheduled as 83001-83500 and 83501-84000

Update at 12:18 local time ... While debugging the problem with the Potholes script bogging down at about Post #600, I discovered that for some time, my Smart Wait commands have NOT been working.  I've been taking them for granted, because the scripts seemed to be working while we were just doing 300 posts a day.

It was a shock to realize they were not working. The cause was simple enough.  In setting up processing inside the program, there is a sequence that is needed to insure the complex commands are visited before the simple ones.  I had that reversed, so the simple Wait was being installed where-ever I had called for a Smart Wait.  To add insult to injury, the simple Wait was installed with a time of zero, so it was doing nothing at all.

I've revised my procedures to catch an error like that sooner.  What's mystifying (to me at least) is how I let something like that go for so long.

Today's run to 83500 seems to have completed without a problem...

The scan from 83500 to 84000 was uneventful.  The Smart Waits are working properly.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Streetkeeping as a relative of Housekeeping....

I live in a dense neighborhood of a large/good sized city.

When I moved in decades ago, the mayor at the time spent city funds to sweep the streets.  Large machines with rotary brushes would visit the neighborhoods and collect the leaves.  Those days are long gone. 

In the past couple of years I noticed the gradual build up of leaf debris, as the annual collection never happened, and residents did not bag the leaves in the street.

Last year, at some effort, I cleaned the entire gutter on my side of the street, only to see it refill almost immediately due to wind action on the leaves in the opposite gutter.

This year, I decided to try to keep ** both ** gutters clear.   There are already a few leaves, so I was out recently, and collected a dozen bags or so.

Today, I happened to open the front door just as a workman across the street was blowing all my neighbor's leaves into the street, instead of bagging them.

I'm sure the workman "earned" his fee, from the standpoint of the home owner, because the lawn is clean as a whistle.

However, I'm ** also ** sure the workman had not a thought in the world for who or what might take care of the leaves once they were in the street.

Update 2022/09/09 parking this here until I can find a place for it ....

For SpaceNut .... just JYI ... whatever gremlin was causing the Dell (hardware/software/interface) to fail to deliver Enter commands via the serial pathway went away when I let the Dell rest for several hours.  I don't recall having done anything out of the ordinary today, that would have caused the failure, but obviously ** something ** happened.

I sure am glad to have the Enter command back working.  It is a workhorse of the system without which things really bog down.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re the remarkable idea(s) of Calliban ...

In the Petrol Price$ topic, Calliban just dropped off another of his visions of massive good that might come to millions if not billions of humans, if anyone were to take him seriously.

The NewMars forum is the logical place for such an idea to appear, but without some pretty dramatic changes in how we do things, it will disappear under the bridge never to be heard again, until Mars_B4_Moon brings it back as an ancient artifact.

Please think about how we (forum Admins and members) might act (together) to change the fate of Calliban's idea from inevitable oblivion to Real Universe practical plans and actions leading to Real Universe systems in place around the world.

i'm not going to manually check all of those.  I'll just spot check a few

Update a few minutes later: Spot checking confirmed the report.
I vaguely recall hitting this stretch the first time through here.
The script and the program needed attention, which is why we are doing this rescan.

Tonight's Pothole scan will attempt to reach 87000. Perhaps we'll see better results.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re possible new topic to work on Calliban's idea ...

You've been busy with family, house, yard, cars and a zillion other duties.

When you get back, please think about the possibility we might be able to do something with Calliban's "geothermal" village/town heating idea.

I'm thinking along the lines of:

Geothermal Heating of Village

The title above doesn't quite catch the flavor of what Calliban has suggested in the Petrol Price$ topic.

The essence of his idea (as i understand it) is to create a Big Dumb Thermal Heater system for a town or village.

I am reminded of OTEC.

You may recall from your study of OTEC that it involves movement of massive amounts of water to gain a tiny thermal benefit of only about 30 degrees Fahrenheit (as I recall)

Calliban's system appears to be better than that, but Calliban's system appears to involve moving equivalent masses of water.

We (humans) don't have enough fresh water to support such a system, so using sea water would make sense, and the system wouldn't care.

Maintenance of such a system to prevent and remove organic contamination would be a concern.

Update later ...

Work is progressing on Simple OCR ... at present, the feature to generate an XML file from pixel data is now importing four files correctly.

Each is shown to the operator to confirm they are (respectively) 1) Header 2) Model Row 3) Pixel Data and 4) Trailer

The next phase of development is the nitty gritty ... the Model Rows are stored in memory.  The Pixel data is read in from file.

Output is (intended to be) properly formatted XML for input to a spreadsheet.

***
I decided to let the Dell loose on the next batch of posts ... It was sufficiently rested.
***

I've been thinking about Calliban's Big Dumb Thermal Heater for Great Britain (and hopefully other regions on Earth)

While Calliban has spoken of using wind power and solar power to heat reservoirs of water, I think the nuclear fission powered thermal energy of the Earth's core is a more reliable long term supply.  It is available (essentially forever) directly beneath the feet of any land owner.

The tip of the drill from the surface needs to reach far enough down so that water from the surface will be converted to steam.

The Big Dumb Thermal Heating system needs to perform physical work to move hot material from here to there, ** and ** to provide the physical energy to return the steam back to the descending pipe to complete a loop.

It seems to me that such a system needs NO moving parts, except for a one-way valve at the bottom of the descending pipe.

I'm not entirely sure what the device at the lower end of the pipe would look like .... that is more Calliban's area of expertise.

What I ** am ** (reasonably) sure of is that a steam head from the Earth's lower regions would have the energy needed to reach radiators in every home and business in a village, ** and ** to push the exhausted steam back to the down pipe as water.

Thus (as I'm thinking of it) the Big Dumb Thermal Heater system would have no moving parts, except for valves here and there, to direct steam to where it is needed or wanted (not necessarily the same thing).

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut .... Hoping to catch you while you are still online!

Is there a way to set a topic to notify a member when there is an update?

I've never used (or even wanted to use) such a feature, but RobertDyck posted a message to the new Blender topic, and I did not know about it until I logged in for another reason.

I ** thought ** I'd seen something about that, but I can't find it now.

***
Regarding Calliban's idea .... you said it is not a new idea, and while I agree with you, I would like to point out that Calliban's idea of serving an entire village ** is ** new .   I am confident you will search the entirety of human literature without finding it.

Please give some thought to how we (admins and members) might be able to help Calliban to turn his vision into Real Universe reality.

Re: Housekeeping

yes, down at the lower right corner of the page just above the post box is a subscribe to this topic link that will send you and email for when it's had a post made to it.

I did a check and we have spoken in 9 pages of topics that have the buzz word "geothermal" with in it and I did bump the ones which had it in the titles.

We could break out that post, but will it create the desired responses to create since we have no data to tell us if there is potential and at what depth....

Here is an article I am not sure where to put as its dealing with the draught area.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re #2486

Thanks for the explanation. I must have seen that fine print a thousand times and it didn't register.

I just subscribed to my first topic!

Thanks for thinking about the possibility of setting up a topic for Calliban to develop.

I'm not sure (at this point) he is actually interested in pursuing it.  After all ... he has a full time career and family and all the concerns that go with that set of responsibilities.

We are fortunate he stops by here occasionally to offer suggestions, facts in response to questions, and the occasional terrific idea that may well come to pass some dayl

In searching this topic (not as thoroughly as you did) I rediscovered a post reporting that FriendOfQuark1 got an estimate for digging a geothermal well ... the amount at the time was $12,000.00.

I assume that cost would include material (ie, pipe) as well as the equipment and labor of the drilling company.

The return on that investment would be greater in a northern climate than Texas.

However, it should be possible to work out the details of a geothermal system that produces power as well as heat.

What I'm thinking about there is the hot-cold temperature difference at the well depth ... if cold water is arriving from the surface, and steam is generated by the Earth's store of thermal energy, then the difference might be sufficient to deliver power that could be fed back up the pipe as AC if a wire is provided.

I'm not sure how much power might be available.  The number can probably be calculated if all the variables are known, but (of course) in thinking about a system of this kind, practically NONE of the variables are known at the start.

I'll manually spot check a few but figure they are probably "real" potholes.

Spot checking .... all posts checked were "real" potholes. 

I'll set the Dell to work overnight, with a run to 88000.

Then I'm planning to let it rest for the day, until after tomorrow's Zoom session.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Simple OCR mini-project ...

Today's work session will tackle some number crunching ....

All four files are now being opened, reviewed and processed.

The pixel data is simply being copied to the output at this point.

Today's work session has two objectives ...

1) Examine the Model Row data held in a memory array, so it can be used to format pixel data correctly
2) Examine the pixel data - It needs to have arrived in ascending sequence, and have the correct format

For another day is constructing a valid XML statement for each pixel

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Potholes scan .... Last night WBA reached 90000 (for the second time)

This time the run was uneventful, due to corrections made to both the program and the script.

For good news, I can report that the stretch of potholes seems to have subsided.... last night's run found 16.

43 is still high but at least it is a decrease from yesterday...

Following corrections of program and scripts, the post-run process now consists of four procedures:

Pass 1: select all reports of text highlighted by the run
Pass 2: remove all SpaceNut posts
Pass 3: pull out all potholes
Pass 4: look for anything left

Potholes:

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Mars_B4_Moon contributions ....

The daily Active list has reached well into page 3, thanks to Mars_B4_Moon !!!

***
I logged in to try to advance the idea of setting up a topic for a geothermal project.

I have yet to study the links you provided yesterday, and am planning to do that, but I just saw a report that King Charles has an estate valued at $28 billion.

He could most certainly afford $12,000,000 for a geothermal power/heating experiment.

I am hoping Calliban will tackle design for a 1000 year delivery system.

The Roman aqueducts still exist in some parts of Europe.

The Egyptian pyramids remain standing after 2000+ years.

It appears that stone is a material that can withstand the passage of time, if well positioned by human craftspeople.

I'm offering the suggestion that a stone well might be capable of surviving for hundreds if not thousands of years, if it is situated in a region not subject to earthquakes.

Stone wells have been constructed in the past, and it would be interesting to see what records might exist of that technology.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re #2494 ... thanks for noting the year where the scan is working !!!

The scan that ran overnight reached 94000, and discovered 53 potholes.  That is more than yesterday, but not ridiculous.  On the ** other ** hand, I am looking for the results to return to 10 or fewer per 1000 posts.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re Potholes scan ...

Today's run was swamped by a rogue wave on the Internet ...

The automatic stops took effect after 94383 finished normal and while 94384 was setting up...

There were 18 skips for the stretch completed. All were potholes.

Re: Housekeeping

For SpaceNut re #2498

I'm looking forward to seeing if we can pull that member out of retirement.

***
I have good news ... the WBA Potholes scan to 96000 ended with a Green screen and only 11 potholes!

That is the kind of low number I'm hoping we'll see going forward. The ideal would be none at all, but there may be a low number of deletes by members, or moves by Admins, per 1000 posts.

I'll post details a bit later this evening.

The post processing procedure is settling into four passes to refine the data down to just what's essential.

I'm not bothering to count SpaceNut posts these days.  There are usually a lot of them.  They fall out in one of the passes.

By the way .... if you ever wanted to know how many SpaceNut posts there were, the data is saved and it can be pulled up to answer the question easily enough.

For kbd512 ... I am making the folder containing the software we discussed at the last Zoom available for you to open.
