@kestral +1 for Home Assistant. HomeKit devices should be supported out of the box: home-assistant.io/integrations (and you can turn any old tablet into a controller, that's what I did)

The good thing about Trump is that he's actually saving the environment by completely tanking the global economy 🤷

Hi everyone, I'm currently having an extremely hard time finding reviewers for a paper at @jovi which relates to visualization, simulation, and orbital dynamics. The review version is public at journalovi.org/2024-rein-rebou and the reviews will be public and (optionally) attributed as well. Please ping me if interested, and RT for reach!

@andresmh oh, good point, I sorta forgot about the "U" in IMWUT 😅

@fm_volker Hm, looks interesting and might be a good fit, but I'm holding myself accountable to not publish with Elsevier... 😕

I have an odd little side project (one of many 😉) that can probably be best described as a new type of environmental sensor.

That sort of thing doesn't really fit my usual range of conferences, though, except maybe if you frame it in the context of "citizen science" or "urban sensing"? Would anyone have an idea where to publish something like this? (Open access venues strongly preferred.)

@bwaber Hmmm, I'd speculate that at least part of their most recent sales is some countries and/or companies building up in-house fab capabilities (again)?

@Unixbigot _This_ is the future that liberals want.

@abulling that's... impressive 😅 One thing, though: I have "only" ~10 ZigBee and BTLE devices each, and I'm already hugely annoyed from all the battery swapping 🙄 I imagine you're basically doing nothing else?

Min "multilingually challenged" hjerne har lavet en ordblanding og "skærtorsdag" er blivet til "skægtorsdag". Værsgo, god påske. 😁

@infobeautiful Brilliant, source please? I'd need to look up a couple abbreviations and I assume the original plot is accompanied by a legend?

I've been stubbornly using OpenSCAD for any 3D designs I need, but it's always felt a little bare-bones compared to e.g. Freecad. Yesterday, I discovered BOSL2 which is a library that mostly closes this gap (e.g. you get paths sweeps, metric standard threads, configurable gears, and tons more). Highly recommended 👍

@brucelawson @davidgerard I'm eagerly anticipating the moment when some future LLM will try to sell this as fact. Well done 👌

@FarTooNice @tante I think the issue is that models are generally static after training, so any new knowledge that arrives after needs to be grafted in via some sort of prompt preprocessing kludge, and that approach definitely doesn't scale.

@rygorous @lritter @dysfun it's right here on my bookshelf, collecting dust since 1996

@rygorous @lritter @dysfun go away or I will whack you with the GoF book

@Unixbigot Don't tempt me into buying more tools 😅

Hrm, Apple keeps telling me I need to either a) let my Apple account be managed by AAU (which I don't want), or b) remove my AAU email address from the account. But any addresses I can find are not university-related (I did have my AAU address as a backup contact at one point, but I have already removed it). Where else could it be?
