Also, I read a lot of people here saying this is about engineers vs scientists…I believe that people don’t understand that Data Scientists are full stack engineers

It is about scientists as in "let's publish a paper" vs. engineers as in "let's ship a product".

GPT-4 (I haven't really tested other models) is surprisingly adept at "learning" from examples provided as part of the prompt. This could be due to the same underlying mechanism.

Fig 2 of [1] shows high variance of happiness while income variation has only a small effect. There is roughly a 5 % (percent it is?) happiness delta for an income delta of about $ 500.000. However, the happiness delta between the different happiness levels is about 25 %.

Would “Income and emotional well-being: It doesn’t really matter” be a better title for the study? Or do I miss something?

The Book "Control Your Home with Raspberry Pi" by Koen Vervloesem is excellent imho. His approach centers around mqtt and he shows how to connect ZigBee, Z-Wave, Bluetooth and 433.92 MHz devices. He is very into security, showing how all communication is secured via TLS. He also shows how to setup VPN so you can access your home automation system securely from outside.
