@RuthMalan the right to repair, and the sense of ownership of which certain, connected technologies have deprived us, is reprehensible. That said, understanding and improvements can be gained through judicious use of technology, such as GPS and local sensors being used to guide both the path and operation of the tractor. Business models stemming from Cloud operations everywhere are partly to blame. One reason we prefer sensor analytics ecosystems to The Internet of Things. 1/2

@RuthMalan that last quote is definitely worth considering as a causal digital twin is used to guide the evolution of a system from one iteration to the next as the fidelity of the physical sensors with models/simulations in the digital twin help to define the “stable intermediate forms”

7/7 Overall, we are pleasantly surprised by this single portable PV panel, with the Anker Solix Home Power Panel and F3800 battery systems. We live in a windy area, and with gusts over 20mph today, the panels haven’t moved at all, unless we repositioned them. If we ever do take another step, it’s likely to be rigid solar panels, either mounted to stands on the ground, or on a pergola, with tulip style vertical axis wind turbines, maybe not this fancy as attached.

6/n The Anker Solix app does show some data, such as the amount of solar power being generated during the day. It’s easy to see where we adjusted the PV panels throughout the day. The peaks, at 250-270W, are where the panels are nicely lined up with the sun, shadow sharply straight behind the panels.
