solarbirdy/README.md
  • 👋  Hi, I’m solarbirdy. Just about any "solarbird[y|z|yz]" on the internet is me, though there was another one at least briefly but they seem to be gone again.
  • 🌱  I’ve been working on an air-exchange cooling/heating assistance solution using a combination of ambientweather and arduino kits. Basically it monitors indoor and outdoor temperatures at four locations where air can be exchanged inside or outside - like at a window - and tells you in a simple display where you should be opening and closing venting. It doubles a system-wide weather and sensor data display, and triples as a window and door status monitor. It's been in a viable state for our specific installation for months, and saved us a genuinely surprising amount of utilities money last summer - despite record heat - so it seemed like something to share.
  • 🏵  As of version 0.6, it now also supports active software control over primary air-exchange systems. It's brilliant and it works. It also has a configuration file finally. As of 0.65, it adds two more season modes. Goddamn I'm good. Lazy, maybe, but good.
  • ✍️  I'm also the first person as far as they know to get a Dreamwidth export to WordPress working, with comments and everything. It was a nightmare but it runs and I've posted that here too.
  • 📫  I'm mostly on mastodon, tumblr, and dreamwidth, and my long-form blog is this self-hosted Wordpress instance. It's also Federated. Notice all the Dreamwidth imports. Don't worry Dreamwidth fam, I'm still there, I just wanted a blog where I could pull all my nonsense into one big place.
