    Thank you to everyone building along with me: Picos, RP2350s, droids, radar skulls and now a snowman.

    Livestream party on Sun 29 Nov. What should I build in 2027?

  2. My IoT backend lives in Ansible roles, not in my head.

    One playbook deploys EMQX and HAProxy in Docker (pinned versions, never latest), creates the MySQL auth and ACL tables, adds a device with standard topic permissions, then provisions the device itself: a small Python script finds the Pico W on USB serial and sends its Wi-Fi and MQTT credentials as JSON, saved to flash.

  3. Write-up of my Pico W Cosmic Unicorn displays, both videos in one post.

    LVGL firmware with two tiles. MQTT announces a new tile, the panel pulls a 32x32 RGB565 image over HTTP. Behind it: EMQX with MySQL auth and per-device ACLs, HAProxy terminating TLS, Python and Pillow drawing the tiles, Ansible rebuilding it all and provisioning each Pico over USB serial.
