    I have a similar project, I'm so overpaneled I bought an electric heater so I could actually see how many watts I brought in during a nice summer day. The victron UIs have an excel…

    It might. An electron app is always a compromise, everyone knows several native apps would be better, but that's 3x the effort and maintenance. If you have LLMs porting to other sy…

    First they are coated in copper, and second nobody bakes pie crusts at a temp that would cause zinc to offgas and third zinc fever is not a big deal unless you're breathing a bunch…

    There weren't even fish in the lake until 1888, it's likely this has occurred more than once in the past.

    I stopped reading as soon as I got to the word "tracking". Solar panels are so cheap it's always better to overpanel than add tracking. Then I re-read a bit and this is about addin…

    I've dealt with images in a database and it was a disaster, the transfer times are garbage.

    I just vacuumed up a bee hive that had taken residence in my siding. Just rigged up my shop vac at the entrance and left it on.

    Depends on the state/city. In Minnesota with cheap electricity and not a ton of sun it's still worth it, just takes a while to recoup. In places in california you can recoup costs …

    I was trying to find information on this on the internet and couldn't find any, thanks for providing. Interestingly enough Copilot coding agent on github.com repeatedly could not c…

    Depends on the pricing & speed. I think you'd use this to create scripts that would run frequently, then on failure you'd have this evaluate if there were changes and if so create …

    So what I've seen so far is that LLMs are amazing for small self contained problems. Anything spanning a whole project they aren't quite up to the task yet. I think we're going to …

    This is why I have auto update turned off. It sucks but it's the only way to ensure that you continue to have a good experience with apps. I had an issue for several months while w…
