Building a fully local LLM voice assistant to control my smart home
I’ve had my days with Siri and Google Assistant. While they have the ability to control your devices, they cannot be customized and inherently rely on cloud services.

AI promised less work. I've never worked more
Agents made implementation cheap, so I started doing far more of it in parallel. My GitHub history since 2019 shows what that did: as VP of Technology I am back at my full-stack engineer pace, with bursts, burnout and a low season that is no longer low.
