Anyone who has watched enough sci fi knows that killswitches in robots and programs are problematic once they become self aware and remove them. I think we go the Zune MP3 player route where the agent needs their timed license renewed every so many minutes or it dies.

Threw out a box of DVI monitor cables and now I need one AMA

It’s amazing to me the number of #ESP32 SBC’s on @amazon with no FCC IDs or other safety info. There’s a reason you can get 6 boards for $30 - they are knockoffs with stolen IP and no oversight. Great if you are trying to automate burning down your house

What’s the story with LoRa and Meshtastic? Is this a pre-apocalyptic network buildout?

Company laptop use on a plane without a privacy lens on your screen is reckless, yet so many people do it. Watching the latest season of Lioness reminds us that someone is always watching, looking for information to give them an advantage.

Used Claude to coach me through my ESPN Fantasy Football draft this year. Good thing I did, here’s why… Normally I’d use @FantasyPros to help me with it, but Claude identified that FP didn’t understand the specific scoring structure for my league and gave me bad advice. This is an easy coding fix. I need to keep FP to fill in for injured players in my lineup, but I can’t trust autopilot anymore. Anyone have a Claude skill for ESPN Fantasy they want to share?

I built a YouTube dashboard for my son with an @edgehax_ ESP32-S3 and a $20 4” touchscreen using VSCode, PlatformIO and ChatGPT. It took about 90 minutes. Excuse the cardboard case, I’ll print that later. Photos are v1-v3 of software.

Should I be concerned about this? What if it doesn’t fit in my pocket?

I have a new obsession with single board #edge #IoT computers. I just bought these India-made @edgehax_ #ESP32 S3 and 4G/LTE units to get started. What should I build? I really like @davepl1968 LED board project, and thinking about a solar 4G nature camera? A robot maybe?

At 51, sleep is now my most valuable investment. I can function on less sleep. Disrupted sleep is the worst.

Sitting at the Milford @MassRMV since 11am trying to register a wheelchair accessible van for my mother in law, and wondering which will fail first - my phone battery, my blood sugar level or my patience. When did the wait get this bad? It was never like this in the old location.

A nice young woman just came out and made an announcement that they have a staffing shortage and wait times are especially long today, and they are happy to schedule an appointment.
