I made an appearance on the "the other stuff" podcast. Mostly talking about tech related stuff, not woodworking (hence I'm posting this here not on my main channel)

Sorry about the low light levels -- not my style

Always wanted to be able to browse my lage photo collection by location. Spent a bit of time getting AI to generate the code, about 450 lines of javascript and html. Actually started this with ChatGPT, but ChatGPT doesn't work well in the evening, so consolidated my prompts and revision requests into one big prompt and gave it to Gemini, then a few more refinements. I was surprised it didn't start breaking things as I refined it more.
Of course, its not as simple as "hey AI, go do this", rather, thinking carefully about how I want it to work and then carefully describing what I want as clear as possible.
But I'm impressed with the result -- this just with the free version of google gemini.

Someone commented that the Fnirsi DPOS350P is currently on sale and a good deal (and ordered one). I checked -- indeed marked down quite a lot on Aliexpress! But before you take this as an endorsement, watch my videos on that scope:

Oops. Looks like my video about the thermal camera is generating too much interest in that camera. Topdon's store appears to be down from too much traffic.

Just got an email from EcoFlow, who makes the power station I talked about in my last video. An technical explanation for the oscillations when the inverter is way overloaded with a power tool starting:
