I have a similar project, I'm so overpaneled I bought an electric heater so I could actually see how many watts I brought in during a nice summer day. The victron UIs have an excellent graph history.

It might. An electron app is always a compromise, everyone knows several native apps would be better, but that's 3x the effort and maintenance. If you have LLMs porting to other systems they may be kinda janky, but is that worse than a

First they are coated in copper, and second nobody bakes pie crusts at a temp that would cause zinc to offgas and third zinc fever is not a big deal unless you're breathing a bunch every day.

There weren't even fish in the lake until 1888, it's likely this has occurred more than once in the past.

I stopped reading as soon as I got to the word "tracking". Solar panels are so cheap it's always better to overpanel than add tracking. Then I re-read a bit and this is about adding solar panels in space constrained areas. Wh

I've dealt with images in a database and it was a disaster, the transfer times are garbage.

I just vacuumed up a bee hive that had taken residence in my siding. Just rigged up my shop vac at the entrance and left it on.

Depends on the state/city. In Minnesota with cheap electricity and not a ton of sun it's still worth it, just takes a while to recoup. In places in california you can recoup costs in as little as 2 years sometimes because the rate

I had a buddy go through the Canonical process, it's totally insane. They expect you to jump when they say, but then they may not respond for days or weeks.

Everyone should try running their prompts and see how over hyped this is. The results I get are terrible comparatively.

Soon TV shows and movies won't be able to use the red tail hawk noise for bald eagles because everyone will actually know what they sound like.

Depends on the pricing & speed. I think you'd use this to create scripts that would run frequently, then on failure you'd have this evaluate if there were changes and if so create a new script.

So what I've seen so far is that LLMs are amazing for small self contained problems. Anything spanning a whole project they aren't quite up to the task yet. I think we're going to need a lot more processing power to get to th

This is why I have auto update turned off. It sucks but it's the only way to ensure that you continue to have a good experience with apps. I had an issue for several months while watching youtube fullscreen I'd do some gesture&#x2

ChatGPT is clearly trained on wikipedia, is there any concern about its knowledge from there polluting the responses? Seems like it would be better to try against data it didn't potentially already know.

Completely left out of this post and most of the conversation is that being on K8 makes it much, much easier to go multi-cloud. K8 is k8.

The goal for oncall should be to NEVER get called. If someone gets called when they are oncall their #1 task the next day is to make sure that call never happens again. That means either fixing a false alarm or tracking down the root cause

Amex's reputation for backing the customer, means you don't even always need to go to them for help. My wife was dealing with a travel agent not wanting to issue a refund (when the listing specifically gave the refund window, and
