    THANK you![1] Calling anything ops "DevOps" is right up there with calling JSON APIs "REST." I know it's silly to let it bother me, but man does it get under my skin. 1. https://im…

    My apologies, then, I misunderstood your point. That said, I still think it's a generally good feature. If a person is distracted and fails to see the vehicle in their blind spot d…

    This is very interesting. I'm not sure what I'd use it for yet, but I imagine it could be useful for triggering ad hoc jobs over the network. Maybe have Home Assistant make a netwo…
