I love love love love (in a sarcastic, dark humour sort of way) the title of the article Dr. Laura Revell, Dr. @astrokiwi.bsky.social and I wrote last week https://theconversation.com/a-new-space-race-could-turn-our-atmosphere-into-a-crematorium-for-satellites-276366.

But one thing got cut in the final edit: simulations of the night sky with 1 million satellites. I just tried to pitch a separate article on that, I'll see if that gets picked up this coming week or not.

Refreshing read on LLMs from the creator of htmx and teacher of the craft: https://htmx.org/essays/yes-and/

What bothers me the most is seeing folks who don't understand the craft, the language, patterns, code smells, etc. Take the LLM away and they are lost.

Augmentation is great but augmentation without understanding is devastating.

Internet friends, do any of you have a Fronius Gen24 series solar inverter on the same network as a Linux computer?

EDIT: Thanks everyone, I've got a few solid samples back now! Much appreciated

If so, could I trouble you to please run the following two commands and send me back the output?

avahi-browse -rv _Fronius-SE-Inverter._tcp

avahi-browse -rv _Fronius-SE-SmartMeter._tcp

(If you've not got the "Smart Meter" addon then the second command might not do anything, not to worry if so.)

Is all in the aid of reverse engineering for interoperability. If what I'm trying to do works then it'll be open sourced. 💪

Boosts for reach appreciated!
