Twenty years of software, a house run by Home Assistant, and whatever else seemed worth writing down.

Software Development

Design patterns explained with real production code, a seven-part series on merging two databases, and the .NET and SQL Server gotchas that cost an afternoon.

Home Automation and Energy

Cutting the energy bill with Octopus and Predbat, charging the car for as little as possible, and the Home Assistant dashboards that tie it together.

Everything Else

Cycling, keyboards, odds and ends from the workshop and the desk.

About
