What tech are you tinkering with these days in your side projects?
With AI being so topical these days I recently started to played around with stable diffusion, via the InvokeAI project (https://invoke-ai.github.io/InvokeAI/) - I'm hoping to write up a blog my experiences but the TL;DR is that InvokeAI is a pretty slick project.
I was also playing around with GitHub Action self-hosted runners (https://docs.github.com/en/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/managing-self-hosted-runners/adding-self-hosted-runners) and was pretty impressed by how easy it was to install and use.
Anyone else tinkering around with something? I've been meaning to further look into Rust and WebAssembly but haven't found the time to get back into it.
Cool! Looking forward to reading that blog post!
Not quite yet at the tinkering stage, but I am planning out home automation while my new house gets built. That, and researching networking gear, and prototyping enclosures for ceiling speakers - Dolby Atmos, let's go!ZM that's awesome! I had a bunch of co-workers from a previous company get really into home automation - check out https://github.com/home-assistant for open source projects around. Hoping to one day do the same. Will you have any solar panels or batteries added to the home?
Batteries - most likely, solar panels - probably (if they introduce spot energy pricing for households, it will make less sense to invest in solar). I haven't tried Home Assistant personally so I don't know how reliable it is... not wanting to risk my marriage, I chose a commercial solution - Loxone 😉
