Some people will recommend starting with one of the pre-assembled kits, but imo it's spending a lot of money without getting much learning value for it. IMO it's perfectly fine for a beginner to jump straight into simple one-two combinations like milk and cereal, or tortilla chips and queso

Damn that looks good. Wife and I painted our first miniatures a few weeks ago and it's forced us to get our basement back in shape so we have a place to do it. Waiting on a quote from the floor guy, should be down there painting again within a couple weeks!

They did this last year too iirc, or some recent year. It’s just a routine ceremony now I guess

Damn early morning autocorrect butchered that. Pretty sure I meant "would very much like" here

Instructions for making your very existence as minimal and unintrusive as possible, to make space for the mediocrity machine to do its shitty work

Seriously, you may be shocked to see how _little_ that big ball of mud is _actually_ doing when you get this view of it.

3/3 This gets down to the actual important things the app is doing, and also gives you a very good idea of what parts of the code is actually doing them. And now you're in a great position to start porting the app to Elixir/Phoenix ;)

2/3 I then use Vim to delete everything in `log/test.log` except:

- the controller actions and params
- the callbacks we logged
- all INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE SQL queries
- the SQL transaction statements around them

Now you have a thorough yet succinct map of how this part of the app works.

This is cool to see, actually. Looks like it handled it pretty well!

Would get much like for “first family wealth” to not be a thing

iirc in this blog post a web socket is opened to subscribe to and listen for relevant events, so I imagine you could run the Elixir process itself anywhere that can connect to HA. So like in a container on HA server, or anywhere on the LAN
