  • Don’t know if it’s really feasible but for scaling (just like in computing and datacentering etc) we need more standardization for a smarter grid I guess then now AND make it “Plug & Play” AND sometimes other legislation so the required expertise to install and configure comes down and you are allowed to do so in a safely manner.

    One example here in NL is HomeWizard home battery because it’s just max 800W one can just plug it in. (In order to have more in one appliance we need other compliance regulation)







  • Dont know if it’s illegitimate otherwise 😉

    But my user story is like this:

    I want to preserve and archive information I used because it’s a reflection of the things I did, learned and studied throughout life.

    Then my use case are:

    • Orientation about “events”: places to visit on daytrips or holidays (musea, nature, parks, campsites) and looking for practical information and background as well.
    • Gather a “dossier”: info to help make a decision (buying expensive things, how to do home improvement etc)
    • Building a personal knowledge database: interesting articles and blogs.

    My current workflow:

    • Browse
    • Bookmark extensively
    • Download pdf or other content (maps, routes, images) when provided.
    • Open bookmarks.
    • Fireshot every webpage to pdf and png
    • Save everything with a consequent filename (YYYYMMDD - Source - Title)

    I would like to automate the last 3 steps of my workflow.













  • As a #2 person, when my level-of-current-knowledge hits a ceiling and I ask for technical advice in forums or lemmy or even social media, it often comes from a #1 person.

    Assuming its specialized knowledge few other #2 have.

    Half the time I get an answer (about what and how) AND background explanation (giving context and WHY).

    But half the other time a #1 doesnt realize easy things for them are hard for me. When they are miles ahead their answer assumes I have a host of other skills already in place. But I dont know what I don’t know so I dont ask for them.

    But … every answer from a helpfull stranger is appreciated. Just bridging knowledge is hard.
