It's one of our favorites :) I don't think it would be so bad to record our lives. We would be more efficient scientists, journalists--explorers of information. We could focus on the here and now instead of taking notes.

We're not familiar with the behind-the-scenes details of those cases, but we're not competing with Nuance in the transcription game. We are doing really killer audio search and view competition through that lens.

I'm Noah, one of the founders. I also think lifelogging will be common in the future because it's becoming easier to record everything and the benefits of having that dataset are also increasing (that's where we come in) You&

Your Python app doesn't have to run in a container at all. If you chose to run it in a container, and you wanted to use sidomo, you would have two options: 1 The container would need to be privileged so that it could run a docker daemo

This is an awesome use case. Back when I was in particle physics we had to use ROOT ( https://root.cern.ch/ ) for everything, and configuring it in a new environment would take at least a day. What kind of bioinformatics soft

you can! I found it difficult to work with and decided to make something new after reading this post: http://blog.bordage.pro/avoid-docker-py/ It's a few years old but I think docker-py still needs some love for i

Absolutely, we use it especially because our servers are linux and our personal machines are mac. Most of our app is not containerized but sidomo helps us make the 'fiddly bits' (e.g., ffmpeg) super portable.

Hi, I'm one of the devs. That's totally true, but it means the python app can only run in the same container as the process. I thought there were essentially 2 really cool features of this: you don't have to clean up after yo
