So Awesome!!


What do you think? What would you do better?


What do you think? Do you know OLinuXino - much like Raspberry Pi and the BeagleBone but has a lot more to offer!


Nice!!! Here is one more when it comes to working with the Internet Of Things: http://cosm.com/docs/quickstart/curl.html And using this I was inspired and managed to do this: http://www.agilart.com/blog/agilart-programs-using-cosm #YAY



There have been thausands of things done with microcontrollers, Do It Yourself stuff, the Internet of things movement... Still a few months ago when I wanted to do some custom set up for the heating system at home I ended up with buying 3 controllers and spending so much money.

Then I decided to do it on my own and spent more than 2 months in learning low level programming, trying stuff, even with digging into programming for RTOS. So I thought that there should definitely be a simpler way to start defining simple dependencies between devices. Here's the result - Agilart.

What do you think? Would it be useful for you? http://github.com/Agilart/Agilart-Run-Time/blob/master/READM...


I want my own RepRap at Home!!! Awesome stuff are coming...


Thanks for sharing Andrew! I like one of Steve Job's quotes about this: 'Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose'. I also agree with you that what we have now are the only things that we might lose when something changes... so I'm glad that my family is ok, as far as the money side - I'm also a middle class person in a country that is known not to pay much to it's people, so I'm glad that I can try my luck somewhere else and I hope it works out for the best!


good luck :o)


Yes, I totally agree!! Especially with the last quote. It's just that my boss is also trying to make me believe that it's stupid to go and it won't work... but I won't let him change my mind. However when he asked me why do you want to go, I said: - Cause I like the idea, I want to try and I'm sure I'll learn a lot on the way. How can this not be enough?


Your boss however good his intentions is bound to be thinking also about his organisation without you so you have to factor that in - why not ask him for a year long sabbatical and also work out a way that you can possibly still be there to answer questions if they get stuck in your absence. If the company that you are with are this worried about you going then it is probably time they faced up to not building a business around one person and also you can help them transition to to time without you there


- this is the beginning of the experience - enjoy!


Thanks!!! I think I'm the only guy driving the project and I feel that it's going nowhere with just be giving the most of myself to make it happen... so I agree with you that may be this is not my problem but my boss's problem!


I know... it's about PIPA, they are trying to do an environment similar to Ycombinator in Brazil
