PS-Drone
Programming a Parrot AR.Drone 2.0 with Python - The Easy Way
The PS-Drone-API is a full featured SDK, written in and for Python, for Parrot's AR.Drone 2.0. It was designed to be easy to learn, but it offers the full set of the possibilities of the AR.Drone 2.0, including Sensor-Data (aka NavData), Configuration and full Video-support. The video function is not restricted to mere viewing, it is also possible to analyze video images data using OpenCV2.

Containerization (Apple)
Containerization is a Swift package for running Linux containers
This repository provides educational material and sample code that demystify how containerization works and how container components fit together in practice. It walks through the responsibilities of an image format, registry, and runtime, and shows how a minimal runtime can assemble an isolated process with the right filesystem view, environment, and entrypoint. The samples highlight security hardening considerations—such as process isolation, filesystem scoping, and least-privilege execution—so that containers are not just portable, but safer by default. Developers get a blueprint for taking standard container images and running them in a way that respects platform conventions, tooling, and policies. The emphasis is on clarity and standards alignment rather than building a production-grade engine, which makes the code ideal for learning and experimentation. -

The system is model-agnostic, allowing users to connect supported providers, compatible gateways, or subscription-based backends. It produces reproducible reports, tables, figures, and other artifacts inside a unified project workspace. Users can inspect tool activity, approve sensitive actions, branch earlier conversations, and compare alternative research paths without losing prior work. Immutable artifact versions and detailed provenance connect results to code, inputs, execution history, environment evidence, conversation context, and review findings. -

Hypernomicon
Hypertext-infused philosophy personal database software
Hypernomicon is a personal productivity/database application for researchers that combines structured note-taking, mind-mapping, management of files (e.g., PDFs) and folders, and reference management into an integrated environment that organizes all of the above into semantic networks or hierarchies in terms of debates, positions, arguments, labels, terminology/concepts, and user-defined keywords by means of database relations and automatically generated hyperlinks (hence ‘Hyper’ in the name). Hypernomicon keeps track of all these things in a highly structured, thoroughly indexed and user friendly relational database, automatically generates semantic hyperlinks between all of them, and presents this information in many different forms so that you are constantly informed of ways all of your information is related that you had not realized. -

DeepMind Lab
A customizable 3D platform for agent-based AI research
DeepMind Lab is a 3D learning environment based on id Software's Quake III Arena via ioquake3 and other open source software. DeepMind Lab provides a suite of challenging 3D navigation and puzzle-solving tasks for learning agents. Its primary purpose is to act as a testbed for research in artificial intelligence, especially deep reinforcement learning. If you use DeepMind Lab in your research and would like to cite the DeepMind Lab environment, we suggest you cite the DeepMind Lab paper. To enable compiler optimizations, pass the flag --compilation_mode=opt, or -c opt for short, to each bazel build, bazel test and bazel run command. The flag is omitted from the examples here for brevity, but it should be used for real training and evaluation where performance matters. DeepMind Lab ships with an example random agent in python/random_agent.py which can be used as a starting point for implementing a learning agent. -

Hacker Laws
Laws, theories, principles and patterns useful to developers
Laws, Theories, Principles and Patterns that developers will find useful. There are lots of laws which people discuss when talking about development. This repository is a reference and overview of some of the most common ones. Principles and laws to follow such as: If a program is made up of two parts, part A, which must be executed by a single processor, and part B, which can be parallelised, then we see that adding multiple processors to the system executing the program can only have a limited benefit. It can potentially greatly improve the speed of part B - but the speed of part A will remain unchanged. Also, theories like The Broken Windows Theory, which suggests that visible signs of crime (or lack of care of an environment) lead to further and more serious crimes (or further deterioration of the environment). Conway's Law suggests that the technical boundaries of a system will reflect the structure of the organisation. These among others, are featured in this project.
