anoopengineer··on MacBook M5 Pro and Qwen3.5 = Local AI Security System
With that logic, there wouldn't be anyone selling refrigerators or dishwashers.
anoopengineer··on Smoking a turkey with Prometheus, Home Assistant, and Grafana
I don't think OP's goal was to get this done in the most efficient way possible, but rather to solve a problem using the tools that they were already familiar with and have access to.
anoopengineer··on New board in the Arduino Family: Esplora
Any one knows of any board that supports HDMI input?
anoopengineer··on Ask HN: What provider do you use for Cloud hosting and why?
Agreed. Most providers appear to simply slap on the "Cloud" sticker to whatever VPS solution they were providing earlier with absolutely no change in features. These are the features that I believe should be present in any provider that claim themselves to be cloud providers:

1. Ability to scale up or down instances with change in demand.

2. Absolutely zero machine agnostic. I really should be bothered whether I am running a linux/windows/lego machine.

3. Auto configuration and notification - Leave little configuration to me so that I can concentrate more on the stuff I like. But, please do notify me in case the whole system burns down.

4. Easily available APIs that are globally used by all - a user account management, cache management, web UI framework etc.

If you see, there are only a few couple of sites (Google App Engine, Heroku et al.) that satisfy these conditions. Rest all are VPS wolfs on Cloud sheep suits.

anoopengineer··on Please review my API for HackerNews
For anyone interested, I have created a Java library wrapping the JSON APIs exposed by Ronnie.

anoopengineer··on Ask HN: What's the best feature you've built that no one uses?
This one: http://www.karminator.com/

I thought this would be a competitor for http://www.fmylife.com/

Not just any feature, the entire site is something that none uses

anoopengineer··on Why does Microsoft say Zoho is the Fake Office?
Zoho is an awesome company and I have written many blog posts among them. But this sort of marketing is pathetic and doesn't suit any reputable company. It's simply childish. Stop it zoho. Nobody likes a cry baby.
