Also look at the failure time and make sure you are sleeping correctly when not reading. esphome has this implemented and it is really great, it wakes up 10 seconds early, starts the fan/airflow, then takes the reading, then sleeps (for 50 seconds) in my case where I want to sample every 1 minute. Without this the lifetime of the sensor is around 1 or 1.5 years of continuous use if I recall correctly.

Yes my comment made a lot of assumptions, but the original post invited them I think. Reading the other comments from the original poster changes the tone of the original message a lot. I think for someone who knows the term "infosec" and has a mental algorithm, a password manager isnt necessary per-se. If we are talking about the general public, in a constantly evolving digital world, I think password managers are a good thing. I think this site is a tiny fraction of the potential userbase for a password manager

I see, you left this out of your original post and it would have had me reply entirely different. This certainly can work for you and makes sense, expecting everyone to do this instead of using a tool to do this is unrealistic IMO. Everyone thinks about things differently and many people "dont care" about security and just want a password that works.

If one site gets breached/exposed, your memorized username/password combination used all across the internet is now immediately available to the bad actors and you might not even know or remember everywhere it was used. Having a unique password for each site is the main advantage of a password manager to mitigate the damage in this case (to just the 1 site that was breached). Talking about your vault/passwords and "single basket" being obtained is relevant when using a password manager, especially with articles/news like this but just a different attack vector.

I use home assistant to create my list of "entities", then I do all logic/automation in nodered, but this could easily be bash if you really wanted. This allows me to leverage the communities work on integrations for stuff (python libraries interfacing with xyz hardware/api/cloud/local device), and then put all of my automations in one place (nodered for me)

If I add new "stuff" I add it to home assistant, if I want to do things with my "stuff" I do it in nodered.

Also, if the "stuff" I want to add is a little sensor or arduino or esp8266, I can just have it send MQTT messages, and then all of a sudden without touching anything in home assistant, I have access all the way in nodered to use these messages to do anything I want.

Your math checks out. For me I came to different sums for each bullet point primarily starting at the place of "I do/did enjoy setting it up as a hobby". I also really liked maturing my solutions from a this is fun to hack together, to things my partner actually has said "wow this is actually pretty nice I like it".

I have also been very impressed with some of the infrastructure/solutions that the open source community has available, it is a pretty rich infrastructure that is not unbearably-brittle if you know what you are doing, but definitely is not user friendly enough to be easy to recommend to everyone.

I approach it like this. As you go through the next week, try and see if you can identify something that you do every day, almost like a habit, and think if automation could remove that task from your life. A few of my favorite examples:

1. Checking front/backdoor is locked every single night, now I have an automation that turns on the front hall light and sends my phone a notification that the door is unlocked.

2. The "did I close the garage thoughts", just being able to check your phone from the airport or wherever you are and see "yep its closed" is "nice" but not necessary of course

3. Everytime I open the garage door, the light turns on with a timer and some logic so that I never touch that light switch

4. auto turn off air purifier in bedroom in the morning (and on at night too)

5. Anytime the doorbell rings and I am not home, I get a phone notification with a picture of who is at the door. Helpful when worried about missing packages, deliveries, etc. Doesn't necessarily "help" solve the problem, but does do something mentally

6. Recently I added one that nudges the volume on the tv up a few clicks and down a few clicks based on the HVAC turning on/off, it was something I found myself doing habitually and now that it works it is extremely seamless and has been great

I have way more complicated scenarios of course, all of which I find compelling, but I really like the automations where you dont know they are doing something necessarily, your brain just forgets they are even automations.

Seems like you would also want "and there isnt a release 2 days after it" fixing a regression. Starts to get tough :/

I also like https://github.com/dflemstr/rq because it supports a few more formats (protobufs for example)

Looks to be managed here https://github.com/obsproject/obs-studio/tree/master/plugins

Pretty clean source tree to reference :) Seems to be unique per OS and not dependent on third party projects.

It does also allow for conversion of EPUB -> MOBI without using the calibre standalone application. calibre-web is now my primary interface to my existing calibre database file. I keep calibre ready/installed but haven't needed it in over a year

Agreed, also hey bud, hope you are doing well

Surprised to see eV+ mentioned on HN... V+, sure, but eV+, interesting... :) The robot world is so much smaller than I thought it was before becoming a part of it.

I went this route last year and thought it was awesome, really enjoyed it...

RTLSDR https://www.amazon.com/RTL-SDR-Blog-RTL2832U-Software-Define...

Use it to pick up weather satellites with the included antenna. Can spend ~$100 more to get images from the GOES satellites. Can use it to listen to ham radio, and local repeaters. Can use it during SSTV events to get images from the ISS https://ariss-sstv.blogspot.com/

Thanks for this question, it allowed me to tune some of the cloudflare optimizations I didn't need (Rocket Loader) and remove the dependency for the script pull and thus the tracking flag with privacy badger! I hadn't even thought to check if my own site met my own personal bar/criteria for trackers and ads!

Do you happen to be located in CA?

If anyone in the bay area is interested in this. I will give you my grid antenna and Nooelec goes+ LNA!

Buy a rtlsdr and start by getting some images from weather satellites

This write up is a great introduction to what can be done and is nearly word for word what I have been through so far with SDR and amateur radio.

Another super interesting thing I have done with my RTL-SDR is track NOAA and Meteor weather satellites and decode the images in realtime as they fly by overhead

If it is any consolation, as a VSCodeVim maintainer, me too. We had some issues at times, a lot of them have been resolved, but that first impression is impossible to get back. Contributions have dwindled from people and I feel like it needs another kick to make it perfect.

As a developer of the VSCodeVim plugin, Oni is a great inspiration and we are hoping they pave the way for the Neovim API (which is starting to mature). We have started using neovim for a few things, the command line for example. So while we have started getting our feet wet, hopefully something like Oni (or Oni) replaces us...soon :)

Hey bud, I am here for you as a developer of the vscodevim extension. I will make sure it works just for you.

100% agree, similar experience
