Enjoy the chocolate, I guess?
🆕 blog! “Review: EgoFit Walker Pro - an under-desk treadmill”
★★★★⯪
My doctor told me that sitting at a desk all day was slowly killing me. So I purchased a standing desk adapter. Then my doctor said I ought to take better care of my feet. So I purchased a massaging foot mat to go with my standing desk. Now my doctor says that I need […]

Thanks for letting me know. Sorry for accidentally causing you pain.
Here's a repeat of an experiment I did on Twitter about 5 years ago.
Can you fit an entire Shakespeare play into a single social media image?
This uses the tiny GNU Unifont which is the most compact way to represent most characters.
The image is 4091x2069px and about 460KB . But when expanded it uses about 70MB of RAM - so some devices and services have trouble with it.
If this breaks something unexpectedly, please let me know.

Of particular interest to geeks - they have an API! So you can interrogate your smart meter. And, if you're on a flexible tariff, you can see how much electricity will cost you every 30 minutes.

🆕 blog! “Nurses should spend less time helping patients and more time ordering bandages”
I was speaking to the absolute epitome of a pub bore. Flapping his jaws about how the problem with the NHS was too many admin staff doing absolutely nothing. "Quite right!" I said, feverishly agreeing with his red-faced ranting, "Nurses should spend…

We got the Eufy one. It has had a few privacy glitches which seem to have been quickly fixed.
At any rate, it stores the videos on a local server.

It is somewhat hypnotic.
I wrote ⬆️ in the middle of the #COVID19 pandemic.
It was *infuriating* to see the number of tech bros who built half-arsed systems to handle confidential medical data.
Every single one of them thought that speed was more useful than safety - and every single thing they produced was a privacy nightmare.
Sometimes it is important to go swiftly and fix mistakes later. But it is more often the case that taking the time to do things the right way produces better long-term results.
🆕 blog! “Solar Battery Statistics - Day One”
We recently upgraded our home solar storage to 4.8kWh. The battery has sensors to detect how much solar power we're generating, and how much electricity we're buying from (or selling to) the grid. That means... GRAPHS AND STATISTICS! Our battery was commissioned just after midday. This graph shows: 1630 - it was fully charged. 2…

nostr:npub19lt4284mghqxekzm6n5njxurnxrxhqhrva2leusdsuu5ja5jeycq66qfjk is the arbitrage opportunity worth the extra load you put on the battery?
I’d assume it makes it wear out faster.
Also, have you considered round trip efficiency of the battery?
nostr:npub1k0fmmcaa4fhxn4fjw4rnq3u9v7fhxwtwu3cjve0mdxtswuwmysfq2tdh7q
Your assumptions are wrong. Modern battery management spreads the cycles across the individual cells - like wear leveling on an SSD.
The batteries are rated for 6,000 cycles - which is 16 years of constant daily use.
There's always an AC/DC/AC conversion loss. Ideally the battery would be directly coupled to the panels and then all our DC devices would run directly.
But those small losses are nothing compared to the money we save.

It isn't a Tesla battery. So I'm not sure that'll help.
