Have I mentioned how much I love our solar panels? We've used 19kWh so far today (the aforementioned bread, plus I also did a bunch of washing and using the dryer, and the space heater has been on in the office), and yet only imported 2kWh from the grid.

HomePods are controlled via the Home app on iOS, which uses Apple's HomeKit (https://www.apple.com/ios/home/). Someone wrote a Node.js service called Homebridge (https://homebridge.io) that lets you write your own plugins to show up in Home, so I did some coding and now have our Raspberry Pis that have the temperature sensors attached showing up right from within iOS! I'm going to write up a blog post going over how I got it all going in detail, because there was a LOT of trial and error.

😫 (We're going to New Zealand tomorrow, yay, but we're catching the train early to hopefully give ourselves lots of spare time in case the weather screws them up again).

Well, that was fairly straightforward! I followed Adafruit's guide at https://learn.adafruit.com/pm25-air-quality-sensor/python-and-circuitpython and it works! Next stop is to convert the Python code to Javascript/Node.js because I don't like Python. :P
