What's the current state of the art - not soon to be obsolete - standard for
home automation?

I need to smart up our apartment in light of the recent price rollercoaster for
electricity...

@charlesv I don't know?! I have 0 home
automation experience. Even my PC mouse has a wire.

@charlesv I checked and Z-wave is kinda big (20
years in the making), and availability of components is good in Norway.

@jrosaproenca
@OutSystemsEng All the best, João. I'm
happy to hear that you found a new challenge!

@realn2s Well, I paid 15 EUR for one day in
power, while being away. I could have turned the heating of until the night time
when prices are down again. So, it should pay off within a few years.

@Morl99 Thanks, but following the guide on

get that.

@martinjuhasz

@home_assistant
@esphome_ I did a little research and wasn't
able to find an available control for our electric floor heating. Also Z-Wave

@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler Since they all share the
same logic to load data, this would go in a separate loader (which is tested,
and passed in as a dependency): loadCars({loader})(myLoadCarsArgs), so loadCars
will only depend on loader's high level API.

@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler So I can test that loadCars
"handles" the loaded data correctly.

And I can test that loader does the low level handling properly.

@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler The "loader" argument to
"loadCars" would then be configured outside so that "loadCars" only needs to
call "loader()".

@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler So, if you use types, the
loader would be properly type as "async () => Car[]", therefor the only test
that's neccessary here is that loadCars calls it once, and if no arguments are
passed that's it.

@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler If your loader e.g. supports
pagination, than the test needs to verify that loadCars uses the API correctly,
but that becomes a re-usable test for all "loader" consumers.

@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler I would throw them away,
because loading data is no longer loadCars' responsibility.

@pati_gallardo It's a losing game, it
think. https://twitter.com/sarahzhang/status/1468728165816274950

@wagnerdennis
@wolframkriesing
@jbrains @borillo
@codecopkofler const loader = () =>
[car1, car2] const cars = loadCars(loader)

This way, loadCars is inheriting nothing from loader.

@pati_gallardo My personal way to deal with
that is to wear FFP2 masks, they are the only thing that prevents and infection
right now.

@pati_gallardo Yeah, thanks for the
reminder that Oslo != Norway... 😫

Bought into the Home Assistant + Z-Wave ecosystem (because I have need heavy

The responsiveness of a switching action from my smartphone feels nearly
immediate.

@daberni
@csaiot Yes, I know, but nothing is available
right now that's using Matter, and Z-wave will stay around for years. Having
Home Assistant also makes it easy to integrate different technologies.

You can use the Chrome Developer tools to preview print mode:
https://stackoverflow.com/a/29962072

@pati_gallardo
@Media In your print.css use "display: none" quite
generiously to hide all the stuff you don't want.

@dodyg
@pati_gallardo
@Media ... or want's to archive data as PDFs; which
I still think is a valid use case.

@dodyg
@pati_gallardo
@Media I actually developed invoicing systems which
rendered HTML using webkit to PDF, because it's easier to write HTML then
PostScript.

@pati_gallardo
@JVApen @Media It's
definitly good practice to provide a good print experience, if that's a
reasonable use case for the site.

@pati_gallardo
@JVApen @Media I'd
say that having a separate print.css is more common, because it's easier to
maintain.

In there you start from scratch.

If you write semantic HTML you will only need a few styles to make it work.

@pati_gallardo
@JVApen @Media Have
an example of such a page?

@pati_gallardo
@JVApen @Media Yes,

add a media="screen" to your current stylesheets (so they are not used when
printing).

and add a new stylesheet to your <head>:

<link href="/path/to/print.css" media="print" rel="stylesheet" />

Write all your print-specific styles to that file.

@pati_gallardo
@Media If you make your current stylesheet
media=screen only, it already becomes much more printable:

@c089 LOLizei. 🤡

... which shows up in Home Assistant. Very nice to get an overview over the
consumption.

I wasn't aware Philips made PCs:

🎄

@m0vas Nice, hoping that someday we can travel more
freely back to the Netherlands. Should be a nice day trip from Amsterdam.

Had to turn off the @tibber_norge pulse
sensor on my @home_assistant running on a
raspberry pi 3 b+ because that was too much data to handle for the Pi and/or the
SD card. It became unresponsive. However real-time consumption data is not
needed for automation any way.

Good read on the power of guilt trips: Alibaba has a market cap of $348 billion
(that's USD), and asks the maintainers of a software that clearly states that it
is provided without warranty to "please hurry up" working for free on the
weekend. https://dev.to/yawaramin/the-human-toll-of-log4j-maintenance-35ap

Good reminder that paint is not infrastructure. 🚴

@linkoffate Node.js

@gfrancesco11
@tibber_norge
@home_assistant I have historically data,
the problem is the continuous writes to the DB. Once I disabled the sensors it
became snappy again. Don't really need that data in HA, because I also have the
Tibber app.

@gfrancesco11
@tibber_norge
@home_assistant I have two Synology, but I
don't want them to be on all the time.

Oh, wow. German church puts @Mentimeter in
front of the prime time audience.

@gfrancesco11
@tibber_norge
@home_assistant There is no setting to
configure the update frequency, which would be a good solution.

@nause_marc I think it's fine to report issues without a patch, not everyone is
comfortable doing that, and often takes much longer to figure it the solution
for people not familiar with a codebase. But yelling/demanding a fast fix is a
no go. If it's important, pay someone on bountysource.

@rockgecko_dev Could be. But if Alibaba
knew about the fix, they could have immediately provided a patch instead, and
created a PR.

Santa helped me to upgrade to the Flair Pro, after four years on the AeroPress.

Happy Holidays from the workshop! 🎄🎄🎄

@m4nl5r Yes, for now, but this one is for my
wife's filter coffee. The grind is pretty fine, and works well for the
extraction. At home I have a Baratza Encore for Espresso.

@rockgecko_dev How should that work?! Its
open source, so there is no record of who uses the library. It's not a
vendor-customer relationship.

@m4nl5r However the timer feature on the Wilfa is
amazing, I miss that on the Baratza.

@rockgecko_dev But how can you let users of
an open-source repo know that there is a critical bug, if you don't know who the
users are in the first place, because usage of the library is anonymous?

@_StephanRoth Yeah, it's more agile...

@rockgecko_dev But not every library is
part of a bigger organisation that has a process like this in place.

@rockgecko_dev At this point it's public to
attackers, too. I get that CVE is intended to behind the scenes reach out via
trusted channels without making the vulnerability public and leave big players
vulnerable. According the article it shows that Alibaba also did not follow that
process.

@rockgecko_dev That's precisely the point.
There is nothing following. You are asking for "responsible" way to deal with
security issues from the author, while this is not their responsibility. It's
that of the organisation who copies the source code and makes it part of their
solution.

@rockgecko_dev It's on the authors to
decide what's responsible for them, they don't own anybody the following of any
process.

@rockgecko_dev No.

@wolframkriesing That's why I love
CodeSpaces, it gives everyone the right development environment in a single
click.

@wolframkriesing The cost is not zero,
you need a decent machine and bandwidth to run Docker containers, so it's not
perfect.

@wolframkriesing (if you run It locally,
of course)

Yes, I totally share this observation. And if we try to make activities more
introvert friendly, e.g. by adding time to contemplate in silence, prepare input
in writing, it's often seen as a waste of time by extroverts.

@housecor
@lisihocke Love
https://github.com/sinclairzx81/typebox for that, because it generates
TypeScript types and JSON schema which makes it even more reusable, or allows to
pretty an existing schema pretty straightforward.

@nagel_kl @tdpauw
@fraclipe
@jwgrenning Fran mentions it in the beginning
;-)

@tdpauw @nagel_kl
@fraclipe
@jwgrenning From my experience it is less
manageable, because lower level languages are harder maintain, and often are
written with less abstractions, close to the metal, which impacts testability.
Also executing code in virtual environments is harder. That doesn't mean TDD is
not possible.

All green here.

The impact on teams that have no overlap is high, but the #2 is really the
important question to ask! Not everyone is productive during 9-5 in their local
timezone. https://twitter.com/codebytere/status/1475470203865776128

@jwgrenning To be fair, a lot of companies
that want to sell hardware products have very little experience with maintaining
software products. They often don't realize that they need to.

@pati_gallardo Looking for the compile

It's sad how smart they tried to be when adding the backdoor: "the corresponding

the string 'r2d2,' and the current date [in the format 'http://DD.MM.YYYY'],
..."

@ichaos1985 Nein, Twitter macht das noch nicht
so gut. https://youtu.be/PvF9PAxe5Ng

So, NFTs are now banging at one of my doors: the
@dotHIV top-level-domain (TLD) .hiv was sold by
@Uniregistry to an undisclosed buyer, and the
transaction includes an NFT on @ensdomains,
which contradicts the governance model for TLDs:
http://www.domainincite.com/27303-icann-is-blocking-23-gtld-transfers-over-blockchain-fears

ICANN is now holding transfer, and we in the dotHIV association are also
curiously waiting for news on the subject.

Mainly, because the .HIV TLD has a public interest commitment
(https://icannwiki.org/Public_Interest_Commitments):

"dotHIV as a social enterprise is driven by its sole mission to support the
global HIV response. Therefore we will reinvest all excess profits in projects
serving this mission."

This would become hard to control if ownership of a TLD can be anonymous.

@BrantlyMillegan
@dotHIV
@Uniregistry
@ensdomains What's the point then of ENS for
TLDs?

@BrantlyMillegan
@dotHIV
@Uniregistry
@ensdomains I don't see what ENS offers for
registries, that isn't currently possible.

@karlawithakey Thank you Franziska! I can
totally give back the compliment. Kudos for being so open about your work and so
impressively pushing to make tech more inclusive. You are a true inspiration. 💙

@alex_schl I recently realized that all
performance goals are arbitrary, negotiable and entirely based on predictions of
the future. They are the equivalent of the zodiac sign calender for 2022 someone
printed 3 months ago: Sometimes they match, mostly it's just noise.

@alex_schl I wonder how that works for you,
given that you are the CEO and in order for your goals to be actionable you need
to give people in your company a way to truly hold you accountable...
