I, for one, don't see any problem here. If you go to a restaurant for a meal, you own nothing after that, but you can be happy. If you go to an entertainment park, you own nothing after that for your ticket, but you can…
We have Amber Electric which pass through the 5 minute pricing, and I personally have a lot of automations on Home Assistant based on it. But TBH it doesn't make much difference and it may not even make sense. The price…
Australian grids are already talking about removing all per-kWh tariff and shift all the cost to fixed supply fee. The government rejected it probably because it doesn't make them look good, and it makes poor people pay…
Australia has that as well, the wholesale market changes price every 5 minutes, but it is a big ask for average consumers to follow that price and shift power usage in real time.
You would probably need to face voters questioning whether that's the best way to use their money.
Really nice project, I'm looking forward to trying it! Would it be possible to process songs on one device, and then use the result in another, or even multiple? Or would it be possible to run as separate server /…
I hope the author can specify a language for the page, like <html lang="en">. On a system using Chinese as the first language, all the curly quotes are rendered in full width, making sentences looking terrible.

I have a nice application of this technique: when I saw some good discount of something online that I'm not sure whether I really need, I put it aside. Later when I looked at it again, it is often out of stock, so…
Don't have any particular brand recommendation. I have been mostly looking for products marketed as compatible with Tuya Zigbee. It seems they are manufactured under many different brands, and usually at the cheaper…
I have quite different observations. IKEA's Zigbee devices are the least stable devices I own and with smaller feature set. For example, I have more than a dozen Zigbee smart outlet around my home, and the IKEA one is…
Except it is hard to imagine there to be enough demand all the time to sustain this for every hour they work, and even in case there is, they would be happy busy making so many burgers for maybe eight hours in a row…
Not sure whether they are already doing this, but the fiber could simply connect to a relay rather than the operator themselves, that way the operator can still hide far from the connected system and use wireless…

This is true, but I only learnt about it after many years into this career, and to be honest I don't enjoy it very much. I still enjoy working with machines more than people.

I agree that the help page isn't very helpful. I had to reach out internally to understand what it is doing and why it is there.
