I remember back in the day when mysql vs postgres was a real debate with mysql being the popular fave. Genuinely interesting to see that postgres eventually won.
Glad I'm not the only one, I was starting to wonder if I was crazy because that felt like the main piece of data in Dark Sky to me. But I saw a lot of iOS news coverage saying basically "Dark Sky is shutting down, but don't worry about it because Weather app has its local forecast features now!"
Meanwhile Weather app completely missed the point and gives me a bunch of stuff I don't care about.
You can tell me that the wind at 4 PM is going to be 5 MPH west northwest but you can't tell me there's a 30% chance of rain? Gee that's great, thanks for shutting down Dark Sky!
You are 100% right. In my close family we had a person that developed really oppositional schizoid type behavior (can't see the medical diagnosis due to HIPAA) and it took all of our resources to get her disability set up - luckily we had a nurse and a lawyer in the family who we could draw on to fight the paperwork and bureaucratic hurdles.
I just don't see how a person without family resources (i.e. most mentally ill patients) could ever qualify and I'm sure that's by design.
noob question - how hard is it to setup and run this on a windows machine? I've had bad luck with python and package management in windows in the past but that was a long time ago.
If you use the webui it's a single git clone and an optional file edit to set some CLI flags and that's it. You download models and move them to a directory to use them. Recently they introduced a binary release for people that are unfamiliar with git.
