@GreyLinux oh that is niiice! I may have to get some too. Right now all I have is a prototype on Arduino Uno, but I have a bunch of Pro Minis on the desk waiting to do *something* with...

@GreyLinux I've no reliable way to do so. Detection of phones is unreliable (batteries die) and anyway won't tell me which room someone is in, and I have no PIRs set up (yet).

I need the system to learn which rooms are in use and what temperature they should be *when occupied* but when not we shouldn't care about them. Light switches aren't a perfect proxy as they aren't on in the daytime, but I'm out of other ideas (other than training on just time of day)

@GreyLinux one MySensors RF Arduino, and a few Sonoff THs

I think I'm going to write a machine-learning model for my OpenHAB/Hestia heating system

I've got 3 temp sensors in 3 rooms, and will probably add more. I can "detect" presence from the on/off state of the lights. Figuring out if the boiler should be running or not at a given time seems like a problem worth solving ...

Hold my beer, I got this ...

Cross posting from Twitter - I don't do this often, but this is worth it...

Heather is without doubt (in my mind) absolutely the best tech law / privacy wonk ever, and deserves to be paid for that. I don't post to Twitter anymore, so I'm reposting it here for more visibility.

@joseph +1 to that. I need Bayesian filtering for my RSS ...

OH: "Can you sweep jelly?"

Parenting is great y'all :D

I am *officially* a published author on open source stuff. Yay me!

I mean, it's one article on a site that publishes hundreds of articles per week, so this is somewhat self-indulgent - but it still makes me happy :)

@AndrzejL whaaaaat are those?! Looks delicious, I want to go look up how to make them :)

I will never be thin, food is too awesome.

@brandon oooh, do want. Time to bake some Golden Images like it's still the nineties :D

@HerraBRE I generally go with the Hyperbole And A Half view (which incidentally is where the "all the things" meme originated...)

The full blog post is worth a read :)

@HerraBRE @aral intro.js probably is a good call. I've seen the "help" notifications starting to appear in the tray, and some of those would have good earlier. More of that kind of thing would probably help with most use cases

You're still going to need docs for things that don't have a great UI though, such as the filtering.- intro.js only works if you've got something to attach it to ;)
