Interesting and great thread. Thanks for the info. Makes me wonder why these 
4011's are so good. I wonder how the 1072 compares.

Re: [AFMUG] CCR2004 coming out

2020-05-13 Thread Steven Kenney
I ran some x86 mikrotik boxes in the past and the nics were indeed the issue we 
had. 

Which brand name fiber cards (sfp+ and higher) would you recommend that is 100% 
compatible with Mikrotik? 

Also running CHR in Vsphere also is an option. Anyone comment on that sort of 
performance?

We have some PR2200s still in stock, dual 4 core Xeons. Not exactly I7s though. 



Honestly any decent server should work as long as it has good NICs in it. ..

So what is awesome and available now? We had an i7 box (network appliance I 
guess) running Mikrotik take a dump so we need to get another backup (or two). 
Nobody seems to have i7 based Mikrotik boxes available. BGP is a must. We’re 
running CHR on our current boxes.

Mike,

I'm sure you'll argue that ROS v7 exists for some values of "exists", but let's 
be honest, it doesn't exist for any practical values of exists.

Chuck,

I was just talking to a guy that uses a drone to fly construction sites.   He 
uses a 4 MP camera and makes multiple passes.   He stitches the video together 
with software.   Each pixel in the resulting image is 1 centimeter.  The 
construction company uses this as sort of an asbuilt.   They file this and can 
look later to see where rebar is in the cement floor and walls.   Where 
plumbing goes through cement, etc.   He does this at multiple stages of the 
construction process.   You could definitely do what you are asking about 
according to what he is doing.

I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you
  look at the logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is
  actually flattening. However, the linear curve is still rising.
Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the
  action/effect, we will know more sometime between May 24 and May
  30. Much of the country is "opening up" around May 10, so if that
  negatively impacts the death rate, we won't really know about it
  for 14-18 days.

Well the local minima seems to be taking nice orderly steps down each week

But the trends do not seem to be going up.  So I will take that as a phase 1

continue on the same trend, it looks like they will hit the bottom in a

With curve fitting you have to consider things like simulated annealing and 
local minima.  Lots of ways to project a trend, but peaks and valleys, 
especially periodic features like this are very good indicators.  
The stock market calls these “flags” and flags can make you rich.

Re: [AFMUG] OT Do I dare jinx it?

2020-05-13 Thread Ken Hohhof
Your 14-18 days is optimistic IMHO, more likely 1-2 months.

 

Get infected.  Become contagious.  Infect others.  Show symptoms.  Take a
turn for the worse.  Go into the hospital.  Transferred to ICU.  Put on
ventilator.  Linger for a month or more and probably don't recover.  Die.
That's more than 14-18 days.

 

So as you turn the dial, the gauge doesn't tell you if you're a hero or a
bum for quite a while.  And if you've caused an oops, now you've got to deal
with the exponential growth problem again.  Lag between cause and effect,

Well the local minima seems to be taking nice orderly steps down each week
except for a couple weeks back where it stayed about the same.

But the trends do not seem to be going up.  So I will take that as a phase 1
win.  Hopefully we are on the road to eradication.  If the local minima
steps continue on the same trend, it looks like they will hit the bottom in
a month one month to go...   I think I have said that several times over

I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look at the
logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually flattening.
However, the linear curve is still rising.

Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect, we will
know more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the country is
"opening up" around May 10, so if that negatively impacts the death rate, we
won't really know about it for 14-18 days.

Re: [AFMUG] OT Do I dare jinx it?

2020-05-13 Thread Mark - Myakka Technologies
Title: Re: [AFMUG] OT Do I dare jinx it?


I have to put this in perspective for at least the state of Florida.  Starting in February, if you believed the reports, we were suppose to be the next NY.  We had spring break, we have an older population, we have Orlando, and we have a republican governor.  Our hospitals were suppose to be over run and turning people away.  A republican governor by default is incompetent, so things were going to get out of hand quickly.

Where are we today? 1827 deaths.  That is only about 2% of the total deaths in the US.  To dig even deeper, in 2017 (last year I can easily get) FL had 203,353 deaths for the year.  That comes out to about 50,838 deaths per quarter.  Assuming the 1827 is off by 20% due to under reporting (bit of a pissing match going on with state and ME's) that gives us about 2200 COVID-19 deaths.  Assuming there is no overlap between COVID-19 and normal deaths we get an increase of about 4% of deaths over 2017 deaths.

That 4% is most likely closer to 1% over 2019 being there is a natural increase of about 1% - 2% per year on number of deaths in FL.  Not to mention the overlap of people who died of COVID-19 that would have died of something else anyway.  

We have almost 600,000 tests with only about a 7% positive rate.  I find that number very surprising being we are reportedly only testing the worst of the worst. 
 
The question is, why are we doing so well?  Is it the government, the people, the environment, pure dumb luck, or a combination?


I for one am very happy with the FL results so far and see no reason not to start opening the state.

Utah

3.2M population

5% of the population tested (anyone can get tested on demand with very little 
waiting)

6432 cases so far.  So that is .2% infection rate.

73 deaths so far.  1.1% death rate.  

 

73/3.2M = .23 or .0022%  22 per million

 

According to one source, your odds of being struck by lightning in your 
lifetime is .31 or .0031%

So, if any of this is correct, I am slightly more likely to be struck by 
lightning than to die from this in Utah?

I dont know if its the same now as prior, but towns like miami are similar
to regions with malaria globally. The HIV infection rate is so high that
there is a large component of the population already taking many of the
current covid treatment meds. And if you buy into the water toxicity from
expelled/flushed meds entering the water and recirculating back into the
potable supply, florida may have effectively been inoculated. God that
would be epic, the homosexual community technically saved the republicans
from the plague. Im right wing, but have no issue with the rainbow people,

governor.  Our hospitals were suppose to be over run and turning
people away.  A republican governor by default is incompetent,
so things were going to get out of hand quickly.

Where are we today? 1827 deaths.  That is only about 2% of the
total deaths in the US.  To dig even deeper, in 2017 (last year
I can easily get) FL had 203,353 deaths for the year.  That
comes out to about 50,838 deaths per quarter.  Assuming the 1827
is off by 20% due to under reporting (bit of a pissing match
going on with state and ME's) that gives us about 2200 COVID-19
deaths.  Assuming there is no overlap between COVID-19 and
normal deaths we get an increase of about 4% of deaths over 2017
deaths.

That 4% is most likely closer to 1% over 2019 being there is a
natural increase of about 1% - 2% per year on number of deaths
in FL.  Not to mention the overlap of people who died of
COVID-19 that would have died of something else anyway.  

We have almost 600,000 tests with only about a 7% positive rate.
 I find that number very surprising being we are reportedly only
testing the worst of the worst. 

The question is, why are we doing so well?  Is it the
government, the people, the environment, pure dumb luck, or a
combination?


I for one am very happy with the FL results so far and see no
reason not to start opening the state.

Many people seem to assume they are not affected because their area is not New 
York or New Jersey or Chicago, and that the difference is that those people are 
different or live differently.  To the extent this means dense population, mass 
transit, etc. this may be partly true.  To the extent this means those are 
black and brown people, or poor people, or foreign people, or city people, or 
Democrats, well … no comment.  Other than I don’t think the virus cares about 
most of those things.

 

But no doubt another big factor was the March 13 rush of Americans in Europe to 
fly back, due to confusion about whether they would be unable to return after 
the midnight deadline.  They were required to fly into one of 13 designated 
airports, presumably with enhanced screening and quarantine for people exposed 
or infected.  But it was clear at the time there was no enhanced screening, 
people were crowded together at the airports, not checked, no masks or hand 
sanitizer or temperature checks, and then they just got into their Ubers and 
dispersed.

 

JFK, EWR and ORD were on the list of 13 airports.  So was MIA.  I’m going to 
assume that Miami was not a popular portal for people returning from Europe.  
New York, Newark and Chicago probably got the bulk of those flights.  And those 
people brought the virus from Europe.  Maybe I’m wrong about Miami not being a 
big destination for flights from Europe, but I know when I was traveling to 
Europe on business, I either flew direct from Chicago, or connected in New York.

Thinking about altitudes and such, if you just always have something in view of 
the images that is a known size/dimensions you can scale any view/image from 
that. So long as your camera is on a gimbal mount and it’s shooting level, you 
don’t get measurement distortion from odd angles.

 

There are software packages out there where they stitch together all sorts of 
images of a place/area. They use math to calculate the vanishing point and then 
use it to draw a 3D point cloud very much like a LIDAR process. The methods I 
had read about don’t always use GPS to tie precision location and have that 
good down to say a 1 foot level. I do think you can dimension off the results 
relative to what is in the object/cloud. I had considered this for some tower 
mapping projects quite a few years ago, I am sure the software and methods got 
better over time. There were programs that would take video footage and sample

Chuck,

 

I was just talking to a guy that uses a drone to fly construction sites.   He 
uses a 4 MP camera and makes multiple passes.   He stitches the video together 
with software.   Each pixel in the resulting image is 1 centimeter.  The 
construction company uses this as sort of an asbuilt.   They file this and can 
look later to see where rebar is in the cement floor and walls.   Where 
plumbing goes through cement, etc.   He does this at multiple stages of the 
construction process.   You could definitely do what you are asking about 
according to what he is doing.

We strive to have video and photo evidence of marks before we start digging.  
Sometimes we fail but most of the time when we hit something there is no paint 
or flags.  

I am wondering if a drone video would be better than our handheld 
phone/camcorder footage?  I have never used a drone personally but have seen 
some of the images.  It sure would be quick and easy to fly a route.  Not sure 
the altitude you would want to use.  Not sure if it would see more than the 
camcorder on the ground.

 

I am thinking that the aerial view would see the paint better but the ground 
view would see the flags.  

Be good for engineering I would think.  Hopefully much better resolution than 
Google earth.  I wonder if you can correct the perspective distortion?

Like to find something that can automatically adjust the scale by matching the 
same features on the edges of a bunch of images.  
I use a product, I think it comes with Windows, to stich now, but you better 
have the exact same scale before you start.  It is pretty ugly if you don’t.

Thinking about altitudes and such, if you just always have something in view of 
the images that is a known size/dimensions you can scale any view/image from 
that. So long as your camera is on a gimbal mount and it’s shooting level, you 
don’t get measurement distortion from odd angles.

 

There are software packages out there where they stitch together all sorts of 
images of a place/area. They use math to calculate the vanishing point and then 
use it to draw a 3D point cloud very much like a LIDAR process. The methods I 
had read about don’t always use GPS to tie precision location and have that 
good down to say a 1 foot level. I do think you can dimension off the results 
relative to what is in the object/cloud. I had considered this for some tower 
mapping projects quite a few years ago, I am sure the software and methods got 
better over time. There were programs that would take video footage and sample 
out static pictures to use as part of the process.

Elon is stressed that he's not completing his mission to save earth and 
humanity. If you think he's about money, think again. His only goal is to save 
us from ourselves by helping drive us into a sustainable future, and get to 
Mars before we ruin earth.

 

All the money he has made has been used to start the next business to achieve 
his goals. Tesla to reduce pollution with electric cars, tesla energy to 
produce and store green energy, SpaceX to reduce the cost of going into space 
with reusable rockets and get to Mars, starlink to fund even more for SpaceX, 
neuralink for AI because why not, the boring company to reduce the cost of 
building tunnels and ease road congestion, etc. 

 

All of these companies do make money but he's an innovator at heart, not a 
greedy money guy. When shit needs to get done, he sleeps at the factory and 
works his butt off more than the suit and tie, for hire CEO's. 

 

He opened the Fremont factory early because his mission is being threatened and 
he needs to keep tesla going for all of humanity, not for himself. The governor 
also said industries that tesla fits into could be opened but Alameda County 
said no. 

 

Yes he is going a little crazy on Twitter but imagine the stress he's under. 
He'll get through it.

use it to draw a 3D point cloud very much like a LIDAR process. The methods I 
had read about don’t always use GPS to tie precision location and have that 
good down to say a 1 foot level. I do think you can dimension off the results 
relative to what is in the object/cloud. I had considered this for some tower 
mapping projects quite a few years ago, I am sure the software and methods got 
better over time. There were programs that would take video footage and sample 
out static pictures to use as part of the process.

Chuck,



I was just talking to a guy that uses a drone to fly construction sites.   He 
uses a 4 MP camera and makes multiple passes.   He stitches the video together 
with software.   Each pixel in the resulting image is 1 centimeter.  The 
construction company uses this as sort of an asbuilt.   They file this and can 
look later to see where rebar is in the cement floor and walls.   Where 
plumbing goes through cement, etc.   He does this at multiple stages of the 
construction process.   You could definitely do what you are asking about 
according to what he is doing.

Subject: [AFMUG] documenting underground marks









We strive to have video and photo evidence of marks before we start digging.  
Sometimes we fail but most of the time when we hit something there is no paint 
or flags.

I am wondering if a drone video would be better than our handheld 
phone/camcorder footage?  I have never used a drone personally but have seen 
some of the images.  It sure would be quick and easy to fly a route.  Not sure 
the altitude you would want to use.  Not sure if it would see more than the 
camcorder on the ground.



I am thinking that the aerial view would see the paint better but the ground 
view would see the flags.

Be good for engineering I would think.  Hopefully much better resolution than 
Google earth.  I wonder if you can correct the perspective distortion?

This is where the data comes from.  It was created to track flu, but you 
can see there is a column for total deaths too.  You can break it down 
by state, region, national.

Harold,

Just doing a quick calc.  We are looking at 72000 deaths in that
time frame.  That is less than 1% increase.  That is a rounding
error.  Being the yearly deaths increase naturally by 1% - 3% a
year, one can argue we will have a smaller increase this year than
normal.

BTW - where did you get that graph.  I would like to keep track of
this and share it with a few co-workers.

hospitals were suppose to be over run and turning people away.  A
republican governor by default is incompetent, so things were going

Where are we today? 1827 deaths.  That is only about 2% of the total
deaths in the US.  To dig even deeper, in 2017 (last year I can

about 50,838 deaths per quarter.  Assuming the 1827 is off by 20%
due to under reporting (bit of a pissing match going on with state
and ME's) that gives us about 2200 COVID-19 deaths.  Assuming there
is no overlap between COVID-19 and normal deaths we get an increase
of about 4% of deaths over 2017 deaths.

That 4% is most likely closer to 1% over 2019 being there is a
natural increase of about 1% - 2% per year on number of deaths in
FL.  Not to mention the overlap of people who died of COVID-19 that
would have died of something else anyway.

We have almost 600,000 tests with only about a 7% positive rate.  I
find that number very surprising being we are reportedly only
testing the worst of the worst.

The question is, why are we doing so well?  Is it the government,
the people, the environment, pure dumb luck, or a combination?


I for one am very happy with the FL results so far and see no reason
not to start opening the state.

I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look
at the logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually
flattening. However, the linear curve is still rising.
Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect,
we will know more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the
country is "opening up" around May 10, so if that negatively impacts
the death rate, we won't really know about it for 14-18 days.

No worries, I don't live in FLA so I'll just raise my SEP field and not 
worry about something far away that I probably won't visit for 2-3 
years.But suppressing the ME's from talking isn't supposed to be 
what this country is about.   It strikes me funny whenever I hear about 
one part of government shutting up another part of government.. 
Whatever the reason.

Two things to keep in mind with Florida.  If you look at worldometers

had those deaths on that day.  It was just reported on that day.  The 
arcis site is more accurate with the daily count, being they will go 
back and adjust the data based on actual death day and not reported day. 
  Big difference with the graph.


As for the media games and stories with FL not reporting, there is an 
issue with counting deaths.  The total numbers from all the ME offices 
were about 10% higher than what the state was officially reporting.  Not 
sure why, they are thinking maybe double counts.  Died in different 
county than register as resident.  Counted in both counties.  The state 
decided that they would be the ones to report the official numbers and 
asked the ME to not make their numbers public.  They are still 
collecting the data, but just not reporting it.


I really don't understand why this has become such a big deal with the 
media.  10% or even 20% doesn't really change much in the overall 
numbers.  The national media is always getting things wrong about FL. 
  Hurricanes wiping out the whole state, pythons falling out of trees, 
gators attacking people everyday, etc.


Once again, I feel things have been handled well down here.  I won't go 
as far as saying the government is responsible for how well we are 
doing.  I'm going mostly with environment and luck.  Things are starting 
to open up, so we'll see what happens in the next few months.  The true

Ok so you keep wanting to politicize the discussion?  How about that 
trump followers are the ones marching around meeting in groups without 
face masks because they need to show its their rights?   And maybe just 
maybe the virus could give two swats of a cows tail about someones 
rights when it flies through the air and lands on someones eyeball from 
another someone  this is shouting at the top of their lungs about their 
rights.  Seems more like Darwinian selection than media bias.


 Now I know personally that a VERY Trump area in far northeast 
California, modoc county has zero cases.   But that area has natural 
social distancing.   I've been there and watched a lot of people without 
masks, but they also don't feel the need to gather in groups to proclaim 
the right not to wear masks.   Should be interesting to see if they get 
any cases now that the restaurants have reopened.   But if there aren't 
any cases there and nobody brings it in, they should be good to go.

He had said he loads the flight plan into the drone before launching.  So the 
horizontal path is prescribed for sure and I am guessing altitude is too. He 
did mention the name of the stitching software but I didn’t retain it at the 
time. I will find out. Might take a day or so.

Like to find something that can automatically adjust the scale by matching the 
same features on the edges of a bunch of images.  
I use a product, I think it comes with Windows, to stich now, but you better 
have the exact same scale before you start.  It is pretty ugly if you don’t.

Thinking about altitudes and such, if you just always have something in view of 
the images that is a known size/dimensions you can scale any view/image from 
that. So long as your camera is on a gimbal mount and it’s shooting level, you 
don’t get measurement distortion from odd angles.



There are software packages out there where they stitch together all sorts of 
images of a place/area. They use math to calculate the vanishing point and then 
use it to draw a 3D point cloud very much like a LIDAR process. The methods I 
had read about don’t always use GPS to tie precision location and have that 
good down to say a 1 foot level. I do think you can dimension off the results 
relative to what is in the object/cloud. I had considered this for some tower 
mapping projects quite a few years ago, I am sure the software and methods got 
better over time. There were programs that would take video footage and sample 
out static pictures to use as part of the process.

Chuck,



I was just talking to a guy that uses a drone to fly construction sites.   He 
uses a 4 MP camera and makes multiple passes.   He stitches the video together 
with software.   Each pixel in the resulting image is 1 centimeter.  The 
construction company uses this as sort of an asbuilt.   They file this and can 
look later to see where rebar is in the cement floor and walls.   Where 
plumbing goes through cement, etc.   He does this at multiple stages of the 
construction process.   You could definitely do what you are asking about 
according to what he is doing.

  We strive to have video and photo evidence of marks before we start digging.  
Sometimes we fail but most of the time when we hit something there is no paint 
or flags.  

  I am wondering if a drone video would be better than our handheld 
phone/camcorder footage?  I have never used a drone personally but have seen 
some of the images.  It sure would be quick and easy to fly a route.  Not sure 
the altitude you would want to use.  Not sure if it would see more than the 
camcorder on the ground.



  I am thinking that the aerial view would see the paint better but the ground 
view would see the flags.  

  Be good for engineering I would think.  Hopefully much better resolution than 
Google earth.  I wonder if you can correct the perspective distortion?

I dont know if its the same now as prior, but towns like miami are similar to 
regions with malaria globally. The HIV infection rate is so high that there is 
a large component of the population already taking many of the current covid 
treatment meds. And if you buy into the water toxicity from expelled/flushed 
meds entering the water and recirculating back into the potable supply, florida 
may have effectively been inoculated. God that would be epic, the homosexual 
community technically saved the republicans from the plague. Im right wing, but

I have to put this in perspective for at least the state of Florida.  Starting 
in February, if you believed the reports, we were suppose to be the next NY.  
We had spring break, we have an older population, we have Orlando, and we have 
a republican governor.  Our hospitals were suppose to be over run and turning 
people away.  A republican governor by default is incompetent, so things were 
going to get out of hand quickly.

Where are we today? 1827 deaths.  That is only about 2% of the total deaths in 
the US.  To dig even deeper, in 2017 (last year I can easily get) FL had 
203,353 deaths for the year.  That comes out to about 50,838 deaths per 
quarter.  Assuming the 1827 is off by 20% due to under reporting (bit of a 
pissing match going on with state and ME's) that gives us about 2200 COVID-19 
deaths.  Assuming there is no overlap between COVID-19 and normal deaths we get 
an increase of about 4% of deaths over 2017 deaths.

That 4% is most likely closer to 1% over 2019 being there is a natural increase 
of about 1% - 2% per year on number of deaths in FL.  Not to mention the 
overlap of people who died of COVID-19 that would have died of something else 
anyway.

We have almost 600,000 tests with only about a 7% positive rate.  I find that 
number very surprising being we are reportedly only testing the worst of the 
worst.

The question is, why are we doing so well?  Is it the government, the people, 
the environment, pure dumb luck, or a combination?


I for one am very happy with the FL results so far and see no reason not to 
start opening the state.

I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look at the 
logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually flattening. However, 
the linear curve is still rising.
Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect, we will know 
more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the country is "opening up" 
around May 10, so if that negatively impacts the death rate, we won't really 
know about it for 14-18 days.

[AFMUG] OT - patch Tuesday

2020-05-13 Thread Ken Hohhof
I saw there was an update yesterday when I shut down my laptop, didn't
realize it was another biggy.  At least there is still some news that has
nothing to do with politics or pandemics.

3.2M population with 5% tested = 16 tested.  6432 cases out of 16 
tested = 4% infection rate?

Utah

3.2M population

5% of the population tested (anyone can get tested on demand with very little 
waiting)

6432 cases so far.  So that is .2% infection rate.

73 deaths so far.  1.1% death rate.  

 

73/3.2M = .23 or .0022%  22 per million

 

According to one source, your odds of being struck by lightning in your 
lifetime is .31 or .0031%

So, if any of this is correct, I am slightly more likely to be struck by 
lightning than to die from this in Utah?

Did I make a math error?

Well the local minima seems to be taking nice orderly steps down each week 
except for a couple weeks back where it stayed about the same.

But the trends do not seem to be going up.  So I will take that as a phase 1

I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look at the 
logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually flattening. However, 
the linear curve is still rising.

Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect, we will know 
more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the country is "opening up" 
around May 10, so if that negatively impacts the death rate, we won't really 
know about it for 14-18 days.

To calculate the infection rate of a specific population, you would need a
statistically significant randomized sample of the target population. Given
the testing regimen where people either self-select, take multiple tests,
or are symptomatic, I am not really sure what conclusions you can draw.

Re: [AFMUG] OT Do I dare jinx it?

2020-05-13 Thread Steve Jones
you can draw that the rate of infection is probably lower than current
statistics show. Its just like cnn or fox taking a poll of their viewers.
all results will be skewed toward the intended answer, same here, the
intended outcome is keeping the rates up, but like those polls, history
will show that the actual numbers ar emuch less

  But the trends do not seem to be going up.  So I will take that as a phase 1 
win.  Hopefully we are on the road to eradication.  If the local minima steps 
continue on the same trend, it looks like they will hit the bottom in a 
month one month to go...   I think I have said that several times over the 
past few months...

  I would love if they still did the 7-day moving average. If you look at the 
logarithmic curve of total deaths, the curve is actually flattening. However, 
the linear curve is still rising.

  Since there is about a 2 to 2-1/2 hysteresis to the action/effect, we will 
know more sometime between May 24 and May 30. Much of the country is "opening 
up" around May 10, so if that negatively impacts the death rate, we won't 
really know about it for 14-18 days.
