what may or may not happen would be the open PR list

yep, exactly
and with so many dam pr's and things going on community wise I figured it would be nice to see what the teams were thinking of what they wanted to accomplish, that might help others contribute to areas around what the team wants to do...
shy comet
whenever there is some type of direction like that.....it usually starts with a PR and other devs follow suit
clever mortar
As mentioned above though, most "teams" aren't working for NC
shy comet
or starts from Architecture issue
clever mortar
If somebody wants to provide an integration for ... SpaceX, then they'll do it and the first anybody hears may be the PR for merging it

yeah I totally get that
but each release seems to have a common theme and I was wondering where that comes from and how we see what the next one will be and participate
especially now that we have 5 or 6 nabu employees?? to help shape the direction
shy comet
that theme always comes from a starting PR
either from that release or a previous release
youd have to build something and chat about it in the dev channels like they do
cedar herald
like I'd love to see the conversation that says we want to do xyz this will span multiple releases but we need to at least get this done.

They don't want a new component for every possible device type when the generic ones would work fine.

you can always submit a PR too and start the discussion there.....i know on the core side if they feel something belongs to the architecture repo they will ask you to start a discussin there
but they dont usually close ti, they try to guide you on the path

I think I've had my phone for 3 years already and still have no plans to replace it. π€·ββοΈ
It works... only thing I'd like that it doesn't have is wireless charging but I'm not about to replace a phone just for that.
subtle pasture
My phone was launched in 2018, though I only bought it in January of 2020
@deft pewter You might actually be able to add wireless charging, heh
deft pewter
Add it? Like with one of those battery cases? Pass.
subtle pasture
I mean, external is an option, but I've had phones where you could add wireless charging with a replacement back-panel
My LG G3 was like that. Base model came without NFC or wireless charging, but all you had to do was snap on a new back with the antenna stickers on it
deft pewter
OnePlus 6. Body is one piece, so that rules that option out.
subtle pasture
Oof
deft pewter
I love the phone though. Even after this long, battery life is still a couple of days. I cared more about NFC / contactless payments than wireless charging.
Plus to get a decent feature set these days, you gotta pay closer to a grand. I paid around Β£400 or something for this.
subtle pasture
The external options are quite clever, though not for everyone
Slim cable fits inside most phone cases
deft pewter
That's actually not a bad solution
subtle pasture
My only complaint with those is that you have to take your case off to plug in a cable
Still sad that most phones don't have replicable backs / batteries anymore...
deft pewter
I think I'd be happy with that compromise. I almost always charge my phone next to my bed overnight. It's not like I'd need to carry a wireless charger around or have a spare at the office (post-corona)
subtle pasture
Stupid purse tricks: I have a portable USB battery bank that has a wireless charging pad on it. I can leave it in the pocket opposite the one where I place my phone, and the phone starts charging any time I tip it into my purse
deft pewter
Almost makes me want to carry a purse

@molten osprey show me what u got.
molten osprey
@young sigil trying to decide on a new hobby multimeter, betweem the AN870 and Holdpeak HP-770D
@young sigil count: HP = 40,000, Aneng = 20,000
ranges: all the same, except
- HP has .1 celcius, Aneng has only full degrees
- HP goes up to 40MOhm, Aneng to 200MOhm
display update frequency: HP = 5/sec, Aneng = 3/sec
continuity: HP takes 110ms, Aneng 20ms
burden voltage: HP = 142mV at 100mA, Aneng = 277mV at 100mA
backlight: HP = automatic, plus a light point in the mode dial, Aneng = manual
tolerances: HP is less accurate, VDC 0.1% vs 0.05%, ADC 1.0% vs 0.5% (although some write the Aneng is 0.5% VDC)
safety: both no high voltage protection, HP has the input shutters
young sigil
What's your budget?

both well within my $50 budget (HP = $40, Aneng = $30)

@molten osprey For hobby use, 40,000 count will be more useful if measuring 3.3V. Gets you better resolution, so HP has the advantage here. The k-type thermocouple probe for any meter is going to limit your accuracy to +/-1Β°C at best. No advantage to either meter. In hobby use you are never going to be measuring more than 20M. No advantage to either meter. Display update - advantage to AN (how is the legibility/contrast though? Very important to consider.). Continuity - both pretty good. Slight advantage to AN. Burden voltage - advantage to HP. Backlight, I prefer manual but that's me. Up to you to decide this one. Accuracy, both very good for hobby work. So there's not much between them. Either would suit you well. Just to throw a spanner in the woks, have you considered the UNI-T UT139C?
molten osprey
Thanks for the comments!
I have not. Let me check.
That looks like a decent meter, and would even allow mains usage as there is some actual protection in there.
Resolution decidedly lower though?
molten osprey
@young sigil It's been a point of discussion between me and a friend ... is the extra digit valuable?
last cedar
I mean more accurate is always better, as long the extra digit isn't at the expense of accuracy, it is a good thing IMO (we were talking about multimeters right?)
young sigil
For hobby use where 9 times out of 10 you are just checking digital high/low values, no the extra resolution is not significant. Even when checking ADC values you are only looking for ballpark figures. If you want high resolution and accuracy for design and prototyping work you would need to spend at least 3x as much.
molten osprey
Yes we were, @last cedar

Okay, nice :)
molten osprey
@young sigil I guess that makes sense π

I will have to take a shorter lunch to sort that out tommorrow now. Highly frustrating

The difficulty with that is that it requires someone to set up and host an Azure app.
I tried my hand at it and got a basic test running. I wouldn't want to pay for the app myself if it grow beyond the free tier.
clear ferry
Does it ? Because when I ran the windows version of that I just entered my credentials and it grabs the status from azure graphapi I belive ?
deft pewter
Take a look at the source code. It definitely needs an app running.
clear ferry
yeah, the windows app worked perfectly
it's just cumbersome to have to run a app for it
deft pewter
The desktop app (and any custom component) needs to auth against an Azure app, which returns a short-lived token and refresh token. The short-lived token is then used by the desktop app to make the Graph API queries.
I think you only need to go back to the Azure app when your refresh token has expired but that still means you need to have the Azure app running non-stop for all users.
clear ferry
aye, but the app does the refresh then I guess
dusky plank
it also runs on a pi, wonder how that works then
deft pewter
I wonder if the HA devs would be open to hosting the Azure app... costs should be low to zero and it means it's owned by someone trusted and central to the project.
dusky plank
oh ok so it's only pulling data from the azure graph, no local access to the teams.exe at all
deft pewter
The presence endpoints in the Graph API are clever. Only exposes loads of detail about yourself but I think you can get basic detail about others.
clear ferry
it's really fast though, if I filmed pressing my status button in teams, I couldn't pan my camera fast enough to see the change

why not just use a marker on a blank white cardboard and sit that in front of the camera?

Yeah, it's quick, atx. Just sucks to have that desktop app running all the time.

I can't make any promises but I have a week off coming up and might try to set up the HA dev environment again and have a go.
Making a custom component can't be that hard, right?
clear ferry
deft pewter
Pretty sure it'd have to stay a custom component though. One of the rules for integrations is that they use official Python libraries, right? Can't do handrolled stuff.

I have a quick Q regarding HA, nothing technical more practicality for my guests:
I plan to run HA on a separate local network, but this would surely mean people would have to switch to my local wifi on their devices to actually use HA. Other than having a few old devices that are dedicated HA (almost like remotes) whats the best way to avoid users having to switch between wifi networks?

Once we build out the first file format, the others are just a case of dropping in another branch of the Step Function.

Also there is seldom more than a few hundred metres from the transformer to your house in residential areas

3-phase GFCI measures the combined current in all three phase conductors and neutral. If there's a problem, the sum will not be zero.
clear ferry
Exactly
forest edge
I remember in the 80's when this house wasn't properly grounded cause only a few things actually required it and most outlets were just two prong. somehow the cable line would get back feed of power either through the tvv or vcr or something. it wasn't enough to start a fire or anything but you could feel it touching the coax end as well as it would kill the the first gen cable boxes over and ovver lol
went away once the house was rewired with modren standards
low harness
Ah good old hot-chassis tvs

i don't think i seen but one tv that had a metal casing
clear ferry
Think we started doing three phase as standard here in the late 80s
forest edge
I know old toasters use to be a concern lol
low harness
Yeah, but the ground plane in the tv would be connected to one of the mains wires. Works ok (enough) if you have polarized plugs...
forest edge
Think we started doing three phase as standard here in the late 80s
@clear ferry isn't that when your country first got electricity?
forest edge
thankfully whatever was causing the back feed the current was low
low harness
Could also have been just induced current from parallell cables, I suppose. Can be a bit nasty to touch, but seldom dangerous.
forest edge
if that was the case it would have remained after rewiring the house
low harness
I measured some 600 V in just a few meter run from a breaker to a lamp in my old house...

Childhood friend of mine started working as a sparky, his first job was to wire up a classroom of computers, well, since we have three phase in he ended up with 400v at the plugs, great fun when he turned on the breaker

Ring mains
forest edge
where your outlets make complete loops
yea that
I could see that somehow causing more current to go where it shouldn't
forest edge
unless there is some kind of grounding short in the line or something actually drawing that power like an appliance it's just not possible to have strange things like that happen here
forest edge
having power come from both sides of an outlet just sounds sketchy to me, saftey wise
deft pewter
It doesn't come from both sides. Your outlet still only has a live and a neutral. The live side is connected to a live ring, the neutral to a neutral ring.
deft pewter
I don't see your point. If you're not the one installing the ring, you never care about connecting/disconnecting either end.
forest edge
nevermind
deft pewter
And installing ring mains... well, you'd get a sparkie in.
You'd never break the ring. You'd disconnect whatever connects to the L/N/E at the bottom.
Your breakers are between those contacts and your feed.
Any device added to the ring just bridges the L and N.
forest edge
it just sounds sketchy. like a freak accident waiting to happen
deft pewter
Tried and tested for decades without consequence... π
forest edge
well.. i'm sure there has been a few issues lol
deft pewter
We have some of the world's highest safety standards. We wouldn't be using it if it was problematic.
Then there's Murica with that knob and tube nonsense...
forest edge
thats phased out
low harness
I can see a problem with it in that the power may not be broken to an outlet just because you removed the cable you "know" comes from the central. But on the other hand, you shouldn't assume that anyway.
forest edge
it's not just that, there is less resistance to the appliance drawing power and unless both ends are rated at half of what the total should meet then I could see a fire hazard
deft pewter
Ring circuits are rated to 30A, apparently, and can serve any number of outlets/devices.
Maybe I'm the one that doesn't get it. I'm no expert with electrics... I just don't see how the design is in any way unsafe.
low harness
But if one side is disconnected, you're suddenly at half the rating with no indication. That's a good point aginst them
forest edge
and what happens if the device exceeds that rating and the breaker dosen't trip nor the outlet dosen't melt before the line?
deft pewter
If the breaker doesn't trip, the breaker is the problem, not the ring.
forest edge
again.. saftey issue
deft pewter
Same issue that applies to any circuit with a faulty breaker π€·ββοΈ
You always want a predictable part to fail, right?
Fail at a fuse/breaker so you don't have a fire in your wall cavities.
forest edge
with a single line the line melts and it either catches fire or just stops feeding power.. there is no secondary line to pick up
deft pewter
And with two? The first might catch fire, in which case you're in the same situation... or the first doesn't and the second might, which gives you a second shot before catastrophe.
And to be honest, the potential of two sources of fire compared to one doesn't bother me much. If my house is on fire, it's on fire.
forest edge
in theory if the hot side was to seperate just enough the ability for the appliance to continue to draw a charge from the other line would more likely cause arcing off the line that seperated i would think
deft pewter
Arcing is an issue for all high voltage setups. Nothing specific to ring mains.

If I could figure out how to get my phone to simulate my work pass, I wouldn't even carry a wallet at the office.

You buy coffee!?

it's a blessing for payments, except you need to take ID with you then you still need a wallet or sth
deft pewter
Used to buy coffee... no office since March.

Norway migrated their drivers licenses to an app, so we don't need it physically anymore

Our work passes are just the MiFare Classic 1k, I think. Easy to read/clone... but phones can't simulate them for a scanner.

Except when going abroad I guess...

We have mifare and prox in our ID06 badges and I have a multitag as well. I have NFC turned off in my current phone. Going to run desfire at home if I can get enough readers

I wanted to get an NFC implant when I still did rota, I had 35 access cards, but there was too many different technologies so I skipped it
deft pewter
Yeah... with horses, you still have to insert the card in the slot.
Different technologies just means you put a chip in each finger or something.

Yeah, exactly
deft pewter
But yeah... if I could have one of those subdermal capsules with a MiFare in it, I'd go for it.

Get with 1k 4k if you can
deft pewter
I wouldn't tell anyone at work about it either. I'd just let them wonder how I could automagically open doors.
