There's a great site to compare how the typing spreads against keyboard layouts. https://www.patrick-wied.at/projects/heatmap-keyboard/ Personally I'm excited to try out Colemak and it's already supported on macOS by default too.

You're still sending the picture across the network to the screen in your most valiant attempt, but by using the inspector's resources, you can get a url link to the cat image[1]. Like you say at the end of the article, it's not really worth it. The site being slow is a better deterrent than anything written in the post. 9 Seconds to first byte[2].

SEEKING WORK - remote (based in Austria) I'm a Web Developer with a strong interest in data visualization, product management, and mathematics. I'm the author of heatmap.js, nude.js and many other projects. Find out more about me on my website: http://www.patrick-wied.at - My ideal client would need my services in frontend development and/or data visualization. - Github: https://github.com/pa7

It's not just you! http://www.patrick-wied.at looks down from here.

I'm tempted to try and do some analysis of my usage, by running a keylogger and visualising by heat maps of the keys that I actually use. Ie, log and then paste the contents into something like: https://www.patrick-wied.at/projects/heatmap-keyboard/

Here is a library you can use that might make for a good first pass: http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/nudejs/ It is Javascript but it should be pretty easy to run it under node.js

I simply went to http://www.patrick-wied.at/talks/image-protection/demos/cat.png

I came across nude.js (http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/nudejs/) when researching for a social network project, seems quite nice and is Javascript based.

He just uses JSONP-ajax to get result from "http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/qrgen/qrdecode_widget.php?url. It's a dumb idea to sell this for 15$

If anyone else is wondering how the characters are generated: states = { // policeman "0": decodeEntities("👮"), ... // octopus "3": decodeEntities("🐙"), // explosion "4": decodeEntities("💥") }; From http://www.patrick-wied.at/projects/tough-title-city/game.js

It seems it pulls data from the HN homepage no matter what, so it's not analysing the contents of your current page. It then decides on the heat locations based on that data. Script is here (hope that's OK to link to!): http://www.patrick-wied.at/projects/hohn/hn-heatmap.js

Cool idea. I think it would be awesome to make it possible to automatically encode favicons in qr codes (pixel by pixel -> unit by unit). Here's also a webapp for some customization inspiration. code's color and even the unit shapes can be customized: http://www.patrick-wied.at/projects/qr-designer/

I haven't tried it but looks fairly effective: http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/nudejs/

nude.js (http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/nudejs/) is a Javascript library that detects nudity in images. I can't attest to its effectiveness but it maybe what you're looking for.

Take a look at this too http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/heatmapjs/

I'm having a hard time not calling this project stupid, because it is one the most moot things I've ever seen. Are you seriously generating watermarks on the client? What's the purpose of the watermark, then? Open Firebug (or, ostensibly, disable javascript) and bam, all your images are ripe to steal, watermark-free. This took me all of two seconds: http://www.patrick-wied.at/static/watermarkjs/jq/img/test1.jpg

I can't speak for everyone but I did an experiment to see if this was the case (I actually just wanted to switch to Colemak everywhere. But iOS doesn't support it natively and third party keyboard landscape is pretty bleak on iOS). I switched to Dvorak on my phone and got really comfortable with it. I was already comfortable with Colemak on my computer. Then I tried 1. Switching to Dvorak on my computer AND 2. Switching to Colemak on my phone I already had a feeling that my Dvorak experience on phone wasn't gonna help typing in a physical keyboard and indeed that was the case. But also, the physical keyboard experience with Colemak didn't really help with thumb typing/swiping on the phone. On a physical keyboard, I can only type QWERTY at around 30WPM and Colemak at around 130WPM. However, on the phone QWERTY is my strongest layout (even when I can only type at around 50WPM with it). Then there's the design philosophy. Colemak aggressively keeps the most used letters on the homerow. Paste a random Wikipedia article into this page and you'll see (https://www.patrick-wied.at/projects/heatmap-keyboard/ alternatively, here's the heatmap for the introduction to today's featured article about Augustus: https://postimg.cc/9RT8P4N6). On a phone this means that a lot of the times you'll be swiping back and forth horizontally. Resulting in identical swipe paths for a lot of common words. And if Clearflow was ported to a physical keyboard, most of your fingers won't be doing any…
