You can pair zigbee switch to a light without a hub, it just works
I remember the feeling of relief when my kids left daycare for the last time (I just have two, though). Partly because the massive reduction in cost, and partly because of the ease in scheduling my day. And it's just gotten better as they've grown a bit older. Now in middle school, they get themselves going in the morning and then get home in the afternoon just before 5pm. I've pretty much forgotten all the scheduling we had to do around nap times, daycare, etc.

I got lucky in a sense, when covid came along and sent me home permanently, it makes dealing with kids so much simpler. My wife and I both work from home now, and schedules are a breeze.
Sure, but we're comparing other smart home setups to Zigbee, not Zigbee to old-style wall switches.

However, you can also pair Zigbee switches to other Zigbee devices directly (although I've never tried it).
I'd bet if you deduct C-suite salaries that profit becomes a heck of a lot larger. C-suite execs and wall street raid companies for profit all while screwing the average American. This is not news--look at stock buybacks.

If these companies paid less grossly-imbalanced compensation packages to their C-suite vs. the average employee salary, and they operated like an actual company vs. a rich person's piggy bank, I'd be sure willing to bet that profit margin would be a heck of a lot higher. They'd probably be more efficient and provide better service, too.
Those parents need to find solutions that don't involve forcing their morality on others. Thats how we get xenophobic and homophobic people voting to control women's bodies because they think others should do whatever they believe is moral and right.

It could be improved even more, performance wise. The potentially expensive modulo could be avoided entirely with an if statement. Or, only use powers of 2 for the capacity, and then you can also use bit wise ops

It's interesting you say "just" a tool - I think the median reader here sees tool as an inherent part of what "computer" means.

I'm not trying to dismiss your perspective here, I think you have a real point about the intimacy and personal importance of modern smartphone usage. From a layperson perspective, you're absolutely correct that these deliver on the promise of "personal computer."

But to those who choose to spend more time learning and understanding them, computers are (very flexible) tools, and specifically they're tools where you get to choose the computation being performed. This is why, to me at least, (most) mobile devices simply can't be "personal computers."

Smartphones and tablets are still useful to people with that perspective - but I see them not as a computer but as an appliance. I turn it on, I turn it off, I maybe get to fiddle with a few knobs, but most of it is a black box that hopefully "just works."

And hey, I like that convenience - as long as it's not the only way I have to interact with technology.

So, it may seem pedantic, but I think it is worth distinguishing true general purpose computers from phones. They are absolutely personal - a "personal smart appliance", if you will, but not a personal computer at the end of the day.
Q: > Why is "work[s] totally independently of Home Assistant" a desirable property?

A: > the idea that a botched software upgrade or failed VM could make it so I can't turn my lights on and off feels like a bit too much. Caseta doesn't use an open protocol, but it does allow all your switches, remotes, lights, etc, to work totally independently of HomeAssistant or Internet/WiFi
The author is clearly better informed than the average journalist. However, I think it's strange how the article discusses o1 as though it's some new mystery class of model that no one understands. I mean yes, the exact training recipe isn't known, but it's pretty clear that it is still a GPT model that outputs some chain-of-thought material inside <thinking>...</thinking> tags, which is filtered from the user's view.

For things like reviews I usually get a lot more value from a quick manual scan than an AI overview of any given review. Summaries of many reviews could be useful but if there are, e.g., thousands of reviews, I find myself skeptical of how truly "thorough" or well-executed that AI summary is anyway.

For "how do I write a bash script that will do X" the AI summary currently is way better than scanning a handful of StackOverflow tabs, already.

It will be interesting to see how "fresh" things like that stay in the world of newer or evolving programming languages. This is one of the areas where I already see the most issues (methods that no longer exist, etc).
Any independent regime, church, youth club, you name it, can build their particular structure based on such words (or rather, such ideas behind words). It does not have to be a conspiracy.

Think: parents? Teachers? Preachers? Politicians? Journalists?

Each of those (1) have a certain power position in the existing system and (2) have (early) access to others to get them to hear their phrases "first" -- about who you should (or must, to belong) consider "bad". And they do not have to conspire to each independently use the same strategy in order to maintain their place of dominance. There is no element of coordination necessary. To the contrary, most likely people who think in power-over dynamics will try to label the other "bad". That's the opposite of a conspiracy.
Also be aware that there are a couple different kinds of "works without internet access".

One kind works without ever needing internet access (on the IOT device itself or on the app if it uses an app) except possibly when you want to install a firmware update and perhaps when first setting up the device.

The other kind requires you to log in to an account from the IOT vendor, but doesn't actually need internet access to then use the device. The thing to watch out for with these is that sometimes the login has a time limit so you occasionally have to re-login. Or sometimes you have to re-login if the vendor's app updates.

An example of the latter is some TP-Link smart plugs I have. I only use them from Apple Shortcuts, but it is still TP-Link's app controlling them underneath and occasionally the shortcut stops working until I open the TP-Link. When I do that I invariably find that I'm no longer logged in, and logging back in makes them work again.

For lights in particular another thing to consider when choosing them is what they do on power up. Some let you set the behavior and remember that on the IOT device, typically offering some subset of these options: light off; light full on; light however it was when power was last lost; light on to a specific brightness and color.

Some have one of those behaviors and you can't change it. Typically "light full on", because that means you can use it both as an ordinary bulb that you turn on and off from a regular light switch and as a fancy IOT light.

For lights that you only occasionally need to dim or change color on that can be great. But for lights that you often want to turn on and off remotely so you need to leave the switch on all the time it gets really annoying because every time you get a power outage or often even a significant power flicker they turn off and come back full on.
Yeah, I'll just never comply and I won't be surprised when SCOTUS shuts this down entirely. The onus is on the state to prove unlawful transfer: I don't have to say anything whatsoever.

Yes, multiple microphones is how microphones can be calibrated in the first place. You make a particular kind of microphone that also functions as a speaker, with certain testable assumptions about how they work. Then you point one at the other and vice versa. The result is a reference microphone that can then be used to calibrate other microphones.

You don't do it every day, which is why an outfit like Bruel & Kjaer can charge a lot for their gear. ;-)
Yeah, it's a real challenge to come up with low resolution rules/heuristics. That becomes much harder when you're tailoring your message to different communities / expertise levels.

I agree with you, but I also get where the author is coming from. Sometimes simple guard rails for new devs is a lot better than ultra detailed nuance that leaves them without a simple path forward.

In my experience I've witness horrible examples of both extremes. Overgeneralized yet poor solutions, and (often duplicated) hyper specific solutions. Both typically from less experienced folks. I think more communication and mentoring would really have helped more there.
> Like economists, who have predicted 7 of the last 3 recessions, AI knows 17 out of 11 API calls!

It's definitely been said before, but the fact that they're calling out these non-existent functions in the first place can tell library devs a lot about what new features could be there to take up the namespace.
Oh my. I mean, if this guy is happy with his results then more power to him. However, this write up is a textbook case of the blind leading the blind. I don’t even know where to begin. The classic smiley faced EQ, equating spectograph with transfer function, no discussion of phase or any other time domain considerations. It reminds me of when I was 17 and thought I knew everything about computers. Then I went to college and learned how little it was that I actually knew. The author’s knowledge is me when I was 17. I however own thousands of dollars of measurement mics, audio interfaces, and software, and have experience built on decades of pro audio work using those tools and honing my craft.

It’s not my desire to slam the author but it’s also important that people don’t take this correct methodology.
Well you can't practice producing unconstrained sentences. Only with their very narrow training-wheels.
I will eventually read through this because I have a reasonably good handle on Python/Go, but don’t have any experience with Rust. This book will help me focus on the parts of Rust that I am most interested in given my current InfoSec work.

Building a SaaS can be a headache especially for non-tech entrepreneurs and solo founders. Sometimes you would just want one feature built on top of a simple website and you can start your marketing.

Adding a custom sign-up questionnaire to an informative website should not take you months to build, and require plugins resulting in $50–$60 monthly payments and annual costs of over 600$ a year.

In this article I will should you how you can start building your MVP on PagePalooza with paying one-time fees instead of recurring payments and scale at your own budget one feature at a time.

Imagine we are building a SaaS for an electricity tools platform that offers electricians and contactors a networking platform to share resources and ideas. We want the platform to have features such as:

A sign-up questionnaire that involves gathering the electrician or contractor information and registering them.
An electrician or contractor will have a profile page.
You want to start with these two features and send an email to the user after filling the questionnaire and show their profile. You could also start with more features depending what you are building. Starting simple, gathering user feedback, and iteratively adding features that provide value is never a bad idea.

Step 1:

After you register on PagePalooza.com, you can either create a new project or claim a pre-designed theme. To get the complete experience, we will start by click on create a new project.

Fill in a small description of your web-idea and click “Palooza”. This will generate a new website and land you on the website-editor.

Step 2:

Now that you have generated an informative website and did some changes in the web-editor, you can exit the editor and click on the “engineering tasks” tab. In this custom engineering task manager, you will able to create custom tasks to be implemented by a real software engineer on top of the website you generated.

Step 3:

A software engineer will transform your custom engineering task into a quote and you will be able to review the quote and leave comments.

You need to pay a 40% to initiate the implementation. You can also assign tasks to yourself and get assigned tasks by the Palooza engineers.

PagePalooza aims to give you full control over your web-app. You get tasks completed with the help of a dedicated software engineer. With a small budget you can build core features and start promoting your app. Using PagePalooza means engineering support, one-time fees instead of recurring, owning your code and no customization limits. Scale at your own pace and your built at your own budget.
Making it work in finite but short time should fix that. A large object generally can deform a larger distance. This makes all collisions inelastic, with large ones being different than small ones.

If you can get realistic billiards breaks, you're on the right track.

Has anyone done this that can compare it to the Hue app? I've had a few apps/light combinations, and the Hue app is by far the best I've used. It's compelling enough to suffer the beginnings of enshitification, but looking for a parachute when it gets to be too much.

I like Hue's rooms where all bulbs in the room are updated at the same time (seems like a basic thing), while others apps don't quite do this right. Applying a color change to the room vs each bulb in the room. I have one room with 3 separate light strips where the app "spans" a light patterns across each device. Again, not something other apps do without setting each individual bulb.

The Hue app works really well for me, and being unable to find an equally featured replacement keeps me on it

I really have hopes that they can reach a ceasefire and that Ukraine can come into NATO to prevent further Russian aggression. Ideally let those Ukrainians who want to enter the “new” Ukraine. I think Putin is of the mind that he has to win something or his role as Russian dictator has a very short life expectancy, and he is quite desperate. I don’t think he will give up any of the land that Russia has acquired though.
Because influence being illegal means "speech which causes an impact" is illegal. You don't want a law that outlaws propaganda because whomever decides what is propaganda has massive power.

There isn't such a thing as a non-manipulatible feed. Even a chronological feed can be manipulated by spam, so it is a bit like asking why is it okay for tools to be made of mass when it means they can be used to bludgeon someone to death.
Radio and TV has long had more limited free speech protections because it’s a shared and thus finite resource. Thus the fines for curse words, nudity, etc.

We're not just talking about someone who has code quality issues. We're talking about someone who has code quality issues that have resulted in multiple rollbacks. Even if they weren't bright enough to spot that their code quality contributed on their own, they're going to hear about it from other people who had to get involved in the rollbacks.

That’s how macOS permissions work.

File access for apps is gated behind “special” folder access (like Documents/Downloads/etc, and “full disk access” which is anywhere beyond the common user directories)
A sample chapter would be nice to see.
Spamming is the trivial way to manipulate chronological feeds. It is so bad that they need active moderation or ranking to prevent a board from going into a state of absolute uselessness.
You owe it to yourself to type out your copied code again. So easy to lose track of context when you’re moving fast. Variables have the wrong name, conditionals can’t be false, etc. Copy, yes, but don’t paste. Do it the hard way.

I think the killer feature of JSON is that there’s one version and that won’t ever change. You don’t have to think about compatibility.

All JSON is valid YAML. So you clearly can make yet another one of these and make it support JSON. But JSON doesn’t support the stuff you’re adding, so calling it JSON5 just makes things confusing as if it’s a version and not a whole new thing altogether.

The ugliest thing the authors could accomplish is making this sufficiently popular that there’s a ton of .json files out there that aren’t actually valid JSON. I hope they’re being careful about strongly discouraging ever writing these outputs to files with a .json filetype.
I am using nickel[1] myself for writing what basically amounts to a pipeline that ultimately generates a json or toml. It has contracts that can validate a field or an object as well as set a default value if the field is not present.

Right. OP: release it as a Kaggle Dataset (https://www.kaggle.com/datasets) and invite people to collaboratively figure out how to autonate the analyses. (Do you just want to get sentiment on a specific topic (e.g. vaccination, German energy supplies, German govt approval)? or quantitative predictions?) Start with something easy.

> for example, I would try to find a foundation model to do the job of for example finding the right link on the Tagesschau website, which was by far the most draining part of the whole project.

Huh? To find the specific dates new item corresponding to a given topic? Why not just predict the date-range e.g. "Apr-Aug 2022"

> and yeah, the web scraping part is still the worst.

Sounds wrong. OP, fix your scraping. (unless it was anti-AI heuristics that kept breaking it, which I doubt since it's Tagesschau). But Tagesschau has RSS feeds, so why are you blocked on scraping? https://www.tagesschau.de/infoservices/rssfeeds
