  • Alpha claims to have produced something other than a rendering?

  • Somerville To Start Charging Fees At Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
  • As an EV driver, I'm fine with this -- the fee is cheap, and I value public charging for the convenience much more than for the cost avoidance.

  • A closer look at the legal debate over Boston's White Stadium project
  • There may be good arguments against the project -- traffic and parking, certainly -- but arguing that letting the soccer team use the stadium is equivalent to selling off public land to private ownership seems like such a stretch that it undermines their whole position. They're not getting exclusive use, and they're helping pay for the renovation.

  • In a smart switch such as Sonoff ZBMINI, do I need to connect both S1 and S2? I've seen tutorials only connecting S2 (on Aqara).
  • It depends on your needs. Either wire the switch between s1 and s2, or between Line and s2

  • That’s amazing - and just from severe rain, not even a tropical storm or nor’easter

  • Matter vs Zigbee: what is Matter actually replacing?
  • Yes, that’s basically right. Matter is the home automation API and pairing/security specification, and it uses IP for communication. WiFi and Thread are the officially supported IP communication layers. One other detail is that Matter uses Bluetooth for pairing & onboarding, before switching to Thread or WiFi for communication. So you don’t have the inclusion/pairing/etc setup from other low-power radio systems like Zigbee or Z-wave. That’s all it uses Bluetooth for, though, but some people seem to get hung up on that and think it brings Bluetooth’s many shortcomings along, when it really doesn’t.
