Register Now: Unlocking Modbus - Accelerate Adoption with SunSpec DevKit & Open-Source Tools - SunSpec Alliance

Next week I'm presenting at this webinar about my Modbus Schema Toolkit at @sunspecalliance.bsky.social

I wrote a GraphQL wrapper that works with any Modbus TCP device modbus.basjes.nl/graphql/ . Does both query and subscription.
Also has full SunSpec support (i.e. many solar inverters and battery systems)
I tested it with my Thermia heatpump and my SMA solar inverter. Like to hear what you think.

This weekend I wrote a demonstration on how you can use my Modbus Schema Toolkit to get 100% support for all SunSpec models and fields and send them into @home-assistant.io . modbus.basjes.nl/sunspec/home...
I would love to get feedback on this idea. Is this useful?

Now AI has a place in IT systems. There are many very valuable applications for it.
Yet there are lots of situations where AI is a liability. A place where AI is actually a bad thing. My opensource projects where I believe this applies are going to get this new (AI generated) badge of quality.

I released the hobby project (I used Kotlin) I've been working on a few years now that makes reading (read only!) data from Modbus devices a LOT easier. Also have a working solution for SunSpec devices. Let me know what you think: modbus.basjes.nl

Of course he did. He only knows hate and anger.

This is the kind of thing that defines a company and its leadership. These kinds of calls.

The response I posted simply explains the Sec-CH-UA- headers and the difference between the first and second request. As also explained here yauaa.basjes.nl/using/client...

Device detection and review request Doesn’t seem like that’d be very useful information, almost 0 info on my phone: EDIT: It’s different the second time I visit the site, odd.

So I find this message about an unexpected effect in Yauaa (my library) on discourse: meta.discourse.org/t/device-det...

I register with my Google account and write a response explaining the effect. Seconds later the response is blocked (ok, reviews happen) and my account is blocked ... WHY?

Turns out the claimed author of the page says he did not write this ... So I send a takedown request to that website.

This week I found 2 articles about my Yauaa library (yauaa.basjes.nl).

A really nice one www.baeldung.com/java-yauaa-u...

And one with so much nonsense (invalid code examples, performance metrics, quotes I never made, etc) that I'm wondering if it was AI written.

NICE!

A chart titled "the illusion of AI productivity", showing how AI-assisted workflows get you to 75% of task progress quickly, but then stall out, leading you to eventually get frustrated and accept a lower-quality result

here, I drew the missing chart from all those "AI improves our productivity!" surveys

From this side of the pond all in this administration seem to be selected to be either "known preditors"(so they won't oppose him because he has leverage from the start), family or "looking for power" ... which for most of the women may become "volunteering to be victims" (voluntary ... so legal!).

ChatGPT said: Here’s the image representing your professional and innovative life as an IT architect and open-source contributor. It showcases a high-tech office environment, collaborative teamwork, and a focus on scalable systems and technology-driven solutions

Had to try this too. Initially it said it doesn't know me (I almost never use it) so I suggested it should use the internet and it came with this:

Well played. And frighteningly accurate.

Today I cannot even create a VM close to this. And in 40 years I would not be surprised if a normal watch has storage in the PiB range...

Perhaps now Mexico will pay for the wall ... to keep the felons and rapists out of Mexico.
