Although I haven't touched it for a few weeks I was working on reverse engineering our smart home heating system so that I can integrate it into Home Assistant. Managed to get the auth with their remote systems done and building out the web socket based event bus.

Not sure if I'll ever be able to share it since it feels like this lives in the grey zone legally.

Revising materials for already out and incoming booklets at https://www.tenproblems.com : the pandemic made about 1/3 of my references obsolete. Also starting with the SaaS skeleton of my Materials Informatics consultancy for http://www.cudmit.com ... all in all, busier now than one month ago.

I'm creating a Rails/Django equivalent in TypeScript called Huncwot [1]. The project draws inspiration from Self [2] and aims to combine a framework, an editor and infrastructure into a unified programming environment.

In other words, I'm on a quest for the Holy Grail of Programming. ;)

I've been working from home for so long this virus won't change anything in regards to my daily routine.

I've been working on setting up a CouchDB 3.0 server on a DO vps. The CouchDB team has been busy as possible working with devs on reported issues so I'll be waiting for a .1 release before putting the new version into use but I love what they've done so far.

Next week I'll probably be digging into using Python to handle cgi routines needed for the apps I'm working on. I couldn't get CGI.pm to install on the Ubunbu 18.04 server I spun up, or find any Perl package at all that would install to handle CGI stuff.

Feeling a bit long in the tooth after that experience.
