Facilitated by Kris Hofmans

He explained some things he's done to automate things in his daily life... and it was damn cool. I took some notes, which I share here (in a raw and dirty format, feel free to make something better out of it & excuse in advance for the typos/inconsistencies ;))

  • Couch potato: share movies with the wife (kind of).
  • Docker container used to sync homebridge (domotics) with Apple HomeKit App (so Siri can help).
  • Vera controller - Compatible with domotic protocols (USB of domotics).
  • He runs the docker containers on his own server at home (picture).
  • He says he'd like an operating system scheduler to manage contacts with people.
  • I explain what I want to do in that regard (I haven't talked with this guy in 1 month, let's ping him).
  • Egga mentions habitica, rpg so if you do the things you set up, you earn points, gain level...
  • We quickly played with wheeldecide.com.

I turned his living room's light on!!!! (while watching it live via stream). Kind of cool ;)

  • CrashPlan: p2p backups.
  • rancher: dashboard enabling to manage different environment/hosts.
  • (Idea he has in mind) replay ability in codebases / Git repositories to be able to learn from the process.
  • Gource: a software version control visualization tool.
  • CodeCity, a similar (to Gource) tool.
  • "Your code as a crime scene", talks online, author made some software as well.
  • synology + raspberry + intel u6?
  • (Idea he has in mind) catalog my pictures.
  • Plex has support for pictures too.
