Author here. Thank you for the tips, and thank you for the feedback!

This. A detailed description of the call - what was discussed, who was discussed, what I said - reconciled with a record from the phone or phone company is more than enough. This is what many other professions, including medical, do. If y

> As for the DNS issue that seems to be a technical or design issue, I don't see in that thread any bad behaviour on the part of the devs, unless I missed a post. The whole thread brings back PTSD when I was running it. It is remin

Used it for five years. You've distilled the all the problems of HA nicely to its source. The product is fine for a while, until the arrogance and disregard the devs have against the user base inevitably breaks something and you have

They don't want you forking it for that purpose, either. https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/126326 Is it technically open source? Yes. Is it spiritually open source? No. Is it arrogance and poor m

Null, void, wild, dangling in core C. DOS also had far, near. I believe one of the Windows Visual something platforms had extensions that added another three or four.

I'm surprised they didn't mention #1 implies a cost benefit, or maybe they don't use it at scale in certain areas that it matters. I worked with one company that switched from Python to Go. They went from twenty-one instanc

As someone who has started side projects with very technical and opinionated friends, just stick with Rust. Make a decision, stick with it, ship it. If there's a real problem, change it after you have it up and running. There's

The two things I always bring up in interviews on why I like Go: 1) Easy to use pointers. There's just pointers, not like C where you can have anywhere from 4 to 8 different types depending on your platform. And no, pass by reference

Hah. I agree, but I'll add that his style is more like it's easy to follow for a while, then suddenly the car drives off a cliff and you need upper division college physics to understand. I really love Anton. He has a way to ELI5

No because there’s no reliance on a cloud service. There’s cloud features, but there’s alternatives and workarounds that they don’t (can’t, really) block and even suggest if you don’t want to pay.

Hubitat’s UI looks like it came from the early 2000s. There’s a small learning curve to get used to its philosophy, but it’s pretty consistent. Once you get it, it’s stupidly easy. I mean for your case, as a dashboard, HA might be better b

Venv on core. Yes it’s the “expert” install. Yes Docker would be easier. However you can’t guarantee Docker will be supported in the future. They created then dropped Hassbian like a hot potato. In fact there are already signs Docker

Breaking user installs is not aggressively keeping up to date. Have a blank map in the UI that didn’t work for years is not aggressively keeping up to date. Rearchitecting major components three times in five years is not aggressively kee

Thank you, I completely missed that. I am not surprised at that attitude given how badly run of a project HA is.

God, don't use Homeassistant if you actually value your time. I've ranted and raved here on HN about it before. It's a hobby project where the devs only care about using the latest and greatest methods and tools for the sak

This would be a trademark, not copyright. And assuming PHP trademarked it's elephant, it has to be THE PHP elephant to be a violation, not an O'Reilly drawing elephant. Duke is a bad example, too because there's not real D

Good luck. I'll check in on this. I also hope you're paying attention to some of the privacy concerns of Strava. Strava makes it stupidly trivial to stalk runners. Some famous runners like Molly Seidel ( https://www.yo

Hehe. Nice detective work. OP did say they moved to the office a couple of years ago, and his idea came about 13 months ago, so perhaps he jumped the gun on creating the project then withdrew it? Love a good "caught red-handed"

From a libertarian philosophical standpoint I like this, but I'd like to know more practical reasons. Is it just the fact that it's a massive amount of R&D that's only recouped from sales and marketing?

Why are you guys arguing about $400/hr vs $5k/hr? If someone is willing to pay her $5k/hr, all the more power to her.
