We’re live! 🚀 chuuchuu has officially left the station.

After months of late nights and endless data crunching, the app is finally out of beta and available on the App Store!

A big thank you to Mastodon community for the feedback that got us here. chuuchuu is better because of you. 🚆✨

Download the official version:
https://apps.apple.com/us/app/chuuchuu/id6748694096

If you want to keep on using TestFlight, please do! You’ll keep getting access to the new stuff first.

Android is up next! Stay tuned 🤖

🗺️ What do you need to navigate the chaos of train travel? Let us know, and we might just build it. Just two questions, promise: https://forms.gle/eeAXum1QT9zFq8Hn8
Help decide where chuuchuu goes next! ⏭️

Now that we're live in the App Store, the question is what's next. Our goal is to become the best train travel assistant in Europe. We have plenty of ideas of how to get there, but we want to hear what you care about most. Please help us refine our strategy by answering just this question: what would lead you to use chuuchuu more often? Note: we are working on the Android app as we speak, so we didn't include it in this questionnaire.

Schade, dass wir im Langzeitexperiment „Fortschritt“ der Kontrollgruppe zugeordnet wurden.

Ich möchte hier für zwei Open Source Lösungen werben:

Als E-Auto Neulinge haben wir die OSS evcc Ladelösung für PV-Überschussladen in Betrieb genommen. Die Installation auf einer bestehenden Homeassistant Installation sind wenige Klicks, die Konfiguration auch.

Einfach zu bedienen, lädt perfekt, auch bei wechselndem Wetter, inkl. 1 zu 3 Phasen Umschaltung. 😎

@viticci I think I have an answer, too: programming languages provide the highly-enforced structure and sanity-checking that LLMs need to excel. It's like the (defunct) left brain vs right brain idea — one side for creativity, one side for logic. A dreamer, and a thinker. Together, it keeps concepts well enough in check to create some amazing things.

I think we don't (yet) have that for prose, or music. But I could see it being possible, if we invent and teach the right abstraction layers

We've been part of the latest @github Open Source Secure Fund session.

Kannste dir nicht ausdenken 🤦@tagesschau „Um den Technologiestandort zu stärken, will die CDU zudem die weltweit ersten Fusionsreaktoren in Deutschland errichten lassen.“

I resurrected the 'ol trashcan Mac Pro and installed an older macOS on it so I could run Aperture for my inevitable "why people are still salty about losing Aperture over a decade later" blog post and all that's happened is that I'm more grumpy than ever.

Even now, it's *so good*. Nothing has come close.

(RIP Chester!)

Love this Project!
Mit der WebUI Config hat @evcc noch mal einen großen Step gemacht.
Go on this way und allseits viel Sonne!

Highlights: Browser-Config ist da! | evcc - Sonne tanken ☀️🚘

2026 ist da und mit evcc v0.300 startet das neue Jahr mit dem vermutlich wichtigsten Meilenstein: Die Konfiguration via Browser ist nicht mehr experimentell.

📲 iOS users: live activities for your train are back. Check the status of your train without unlocking your phone.
