A Smarter Site: Maximizing Safety and Productivity with Video Analytics in Construction

Video analytics is the process of extracting useful information from video data. This process has evolved in recent years thanks to artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies, allowing algorithms to analyze live feeds and generate alerts automatically. Analyzing video data in real time consists of three main functions — detection, classification and tracking. Detection identifies objects of interest, such as people and vehicles, within a video frame and classifies them based on predefined criteria. Tracking functionality automatically follows the identified objects. These functions facilitate analytics, providing valuable, actionable insights into everyday processes for improved decision-making.

I'm certain I've seen this said somewhere else already and I cannot for the life of me track it down but Dream's favourite colour being purple and Nightmare's being yellow

Everybody assumes Dream's is yellow because, well, he's dressed in it head to toe and his magic is yellow and his eyelights are yellow. It's just a bright happy colour, it must be his favourite! Only Blue and Ink know it's not, Ink because he takes note of how Dream favours purple any time he gets to pick something or joins in on an art project and Blue because he just asked.

Everybody assumes Nightmare doesn't have a favourite colour, that if you asked he'd say he was above that sort of thing or tell you something edgy like black because it's the colour of his soul. And it's kind of true, if you asked he would never admit to liking a colour, especially not one so cheery and bright. But the boys have definitely noted how he has paintings of sunrises in his offices and sunflowers planted outside.

hot take but like why are we as a society still using lead in manufacturing processes in 2024...

anyway tldr of this is that you are not being exposed to lead unless the circular piece on the bottom of the cup is damaged. so, owning a cup like this will likely not result in lead exposure. this is similar to the fact that in older housing where lead paint has been painted over in subsequent decades, and that paint is in good condition, then it is not a risk. lead based paint only becomes an issue when it is deteriorating (chipping, cracking, peeling, chalking, etc) or being turned into dust during renovation activites. so yeah, in a similar way--you aren't going to get lead poisoning unless the steel compontent on this water bottles comes off.

but also this article says that these lead pellets that are used in the cups are an "industry standard" and i'm like: why? WHY is it industry standard in 2024? at least with lead pipes and lead based paint, we're just dealing with issues from prior decades. but this is current so there is a conscious decision to still use lead in products. also, i don't know enough about this subject (bottle manufacturing) to know why they prefer to use lead for this step, or where in the world they manufacture the cups, but my other concern is that even though the general public will likely not be exposed if it's covered, there are still workers who have to handle it during production.

anyway, i just find that i am constantly learning about more places that lead gets found and it's just. sigh. i know lead has many appealing properties which is why it is constantly found everywhere in everything but at this point it's incredibly clear that no benefits outweigh its risks....

Hurricanes aren't a joke. Listen to those fucking evacuation orders and weather alerts. Don't panic, but listen and take them fucking seriously.

I nearly lost my family last night. They lost their house for the foreseeable future. I stayed up until 2 am giving them directions to where I was so they could have shelter for the night and helping them get situated after they barely managed to get out alive. But their house is wrecked. It's fucked. They refused to evacuate despite me always urging them to (they live in an A zone but are stubborn people). They didn't think they'd get flooded so fast, but flooding happens faster than you think. They only managed to get out because my dad's truck is borderline immortal for whatever god damn reason but the flood water they drove through was killing all the other cars around them, and their other vehicles are dead now.

If you're in a flood zone and you're told to evacuate because of life threatening storm surges or ANYTHING, you fucking go, and you bring anyone who needs your help with you. I don't care if you think you'll be fine, you don't have plot armor. Get the fuck out. Emergency services won't come to evacuated zones in the middle of the storm when you're most likely to get completely fucked over by it. For the love of god don't walk in flood water and if you have to, disinfect any open cuts you have the second you're able and keep an eye/have it checked out in case of infection. You dont know what's in that water. You can't be "prepared" to face a flood at your front door. Your belongings are replaceable and you aren't. It can happen to anyone.

My family learned a lesson in an extremely harsh way last night, and I don't want other people to learn that lesson the same way, because regardless of "well you should have--", I think no one should experience this actually. I'm just glad I was in a position to help, because no one else could.

A worker accidentally left a gate to one of our construction sites open over the weekend and a local resident and regular complainant decided to WALK ON SITE and take photos to request we tidy it up because she thinks it's messy and unsightly.

So now there's a discussion between project management on whether to prosecute this woman with a idk up to thousand dollar fine for TRESSPASSING onto a potentially DANGEROUS CONSTRUCTION SITE without supervision or PPE and take PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE of it, because she wanted to complain about a mess that she normally can't see behind the covered fencing??????

Every little thing that you have ever told him about you, stuck to his mind like glue.

Your voice would play over and over in his mind similarly to catching an ear worm from a catchy song.

Your slightly calloused hands were always cold while his were warm.

In his eyes, that meant you two complemented each other.

Fire and Ice.

In his eyes, the world was a dark place, but he didn’t see you as his light.

As his savior.

Leon saw the tiredness within your eyes, the dark circles that made you look slightly intimidating.

Oh, how he hated that. He would see glimpses of sparkles that would twinkle within your eyes, glimpses of heavenly light shining down on you whenever you smiled or laugh.

Happiness was such a perfect look on you in his eyes.

Just like you, he too suffered from the cruelty of the world. His eyes no longer shinning as bright and innocently as they use too. No longer filled with the hope and optimism that once made him feel invincible.

Now, he felt nothing but dread.

Dread of the future and dread of the unknown.

He has lost a lot of people close to him… but when his eyes laid upon you, he felt a pull and he couldn’t truly explain until he finally talked to you and once, he did, he realized that you two were kindred spirits and once came to that realization, he concluded that he couldn’t lose you.

He wanted to help you.

To save you.

He didn’t want you to continue to suffer in this world and to question your own existence because of said suffering.

Is this love? Obsession? Or him simply being empathetic? He couldn’t tell as he never put much deep thought about his feelings for you.

But if there was one thing he was positive about, was that you needed him as much as he needed you because in his eyes,

You’re just too important to him to just let die.

And if he must lock you away from this harsh world, then he’ll do it.

Your safety is his number one priority.
