I'd love to tinker and play with it, but I don't have the time. Have to get my I2C sensors done with the Pi before that.

I like the very thought of home automation and the principle of 'automate everything' and as such "kudos to the developers". For my own part I have occasionally thought about what I would like to automate in my environme

I would really be interrested in details on how to connect the filesystem between OSX and docker/linux via 9p. What would be the recommended way? How to install the required software on either system. Host on OSX or on Linux? On a rece

Yes, total agreement that the situation is different with kids. Still I'd recommend to enjoy the moment and then take a picture afterwards. And then go through the pictures with your kids when they are older and able to understand and

While I agree with your general approach, I have to slightly disagree with your statement that photos are all we have from our life. For my own part, I'm preferring savouring the moment over taking a picture. I have experienced lovely
