Ah I picked the C6 for it's Zigbee support, I've completely avoided WiFi IoT devices where I can in my apartment. I haven't explored thread at all yet though. Thread / Matter seems like it's going to be more open than zigbee, and potentially easier to develop for?

Appreciate the feedback! I was having a hard time finding anyone with design experience in my social circle, so I mostly relied on asking Claude if something was or wasn't conventional. I did try to keep my ground pour free of bottle-necks.

Been learning electronic PCB design the last few weeks while retrofitting some IKEA window shades for Zigbee enabled motorization.

I've really enjoyed the journey of 3D printing and being able to create all kinds of mechanically useful things over the last few years, but I had always wanted to go even further and incorporate some non-trivial custom electronics.

For this project I had a space constraint for the motor controller board, so while I could have probably hacked together a working perfboard, it just wasn't going to be satisfying. So I finally took the plunge and spent 40 or so hours in KiCad learning how read IC reference documents, picking components, and of course, doing the PCB trace layout.

It's really just a 12v→5v buck circuit, all the plumbing and ancillary components for connecting a ESP32 module to a couple motor driver ICs, and some headers, but it is completely mine!

Just got 5 of my boards in the mail from JLCPCB the other day (insane turnaround, less than a week) and was very happy to find that the entire circuit worked perfectly! I did spend a fair amount of time going over the design with Claude though, so I think that paid off (the kicad files are plaintext, so it made easy work of understanding what I was doing).

Still putting together the repo here, but I'm hoping to make a little blog post out of the project too :) https://github.com/evanpurkhiser/HOPPVALS-MRF-01

Would love to see some screenshots in your readme of this!

I’ve been using opencode’s server command as a systemd unit on my home server. I connect to it with the desktop and mobile client. Use it for a bunch of openclaw-esq things, but with a nicer interface.

I think CC does have “remote control” now which I think would work similar, but it’s Max only right now

I do something like this! I’m based in NY but my dad’s in LA. I put together an rpi5 + 5xSATA hat with 3 10TB WD red drives using zraid1 (managed to pick these up over the holidays before prices started going up, $160 per drive!). 3D printed the case and got it running a diskless alpine image with tailscale and zrepl for ZFS snapshot replication. Just left it running in a corner at his place and told him not to touch it heh

Whole thing cost around $500. Before that I was paying ~$35 a month for a Google workspace with 5TB of drive space. At one point in the past it was “unlimited” space for $15 a month. Figure the whole thing will pay for itself in the next couple of years.

Actually just finished the initial replication of my 10TB pool. I ran into a gnarly situation where zrepl blew away the initial snapshot on the source pool just after it finished syncing, and I ended up having to patch in a new fake “matching” snapshot. I had claude write up a post here, if you’ll excuse the completely AI generated “blog post”, it came up with a pretty good solution https://gist.github.com/evanpurkhiser/7663b7cabf82e6483d2d29...

Unfollow everyone. This is what I do, when I land on the Facebook home feed I get the “add friends” onboarding experience.

You could even get more clever with this you could drop the unique_id and just match up the remote host IP. You could probably even disguise the command as something like a "network connectivity test" in the script.

    # Check network connectivity so we can continue the install
    if ! curl --fail www.example.com; then exit; fi

Of course, what actually is happening is that we've just informed the server to now serve our malicious code.
