As someone who has to take medication each day to ensure I continue to haunt this plane of existence and also someone who is atrociously bad at remembering to do things, I have relied on multiple systems to remind me to take my meds and they all have been terrible for one reason or another. So I'm going to "fix" that the only way I know how. Building a little #gadget. E-ink screen, cr2032 battery, and #STM8 and an ambient light sensor. Put together in a #3dprinted case. V0.1 and V0.2 pictured

The jump in difficulty from making pretty complex stuff happen in #Arduino to writing code directly for a #microcontroller is much larger than I thought it would be. I'm working on a project now that needs to use sleep modes and real-time clock wakeups so I am using STVD for #STM8 and I hardly know where to start. It feels like the first time I picked up an Arduino!

After getting an #HP smart PDU for a deal last year, I quickly realized that, while it does have a web client, it doesn't have any kind of API for programmatic control. So I pulled everything I could off the web server, did a lot of screwing around with the network monitor in Firefox and was able to #reverseengineer the backend. The authentication ended up being the hardest part as Python and JavaScript handle strings very differently. Check it out: https://github.com/nodetap/H8B48A_pdu_control
