What I'm trying to say is that maybe there is a way to make them feel even safer.Well that’s a wrap, another VMworld in the books, this is number 8 for me and how fast the event flies by never changes for me. They feel safe, because they don't need to expose their devices to the "cloud", they feel safe because they know it is open source and 215 contributors are working on making Tasmota better, they know that even something is not easy to do with Tasmota it will be in the future because it evolves every day, they know that they will find help from community if they find some obstacles or don't understand something. I've got 44 devices running Tasmota in my house, but I do believe there are many users have hundreds of it - people trust Tasmota and using it in a way that probably most of us can't even imagine. There are "Tasmota evangelists" like "dottore" DrZzs, Rob from "The Hook up", digiblurDIY and many, many more which produce dozens of youtube movies, blogs, tools helping people to start using Tasmota - it is a HUGE project which litterally changed people lives. Google returns MILLION results to "tasmota" query. Maybe it can be done by introducing something like sensor29 ,? Changes in MCP driver are of course only an example here, but I hope you get a point: be "safe" during update in boundaries of the same major Tasmota version. Of course I understand that it's not that easy because every SetOptionX consumes memory and leads to situation that there can be SetOption2345 which is unmanageable. Introducing API change in MCP driver could be moved to the new major version or could be covered by SetOptionX - default is old API interface, but if someone need the new functionality/API and find it interesting it can be changed by SetOptionX. let's say "user experience" (I'm not sure it's right word/term) You are absolutely right that it's not easy or can lead to very strange situations (Tasmota version 987.64.5), I just wanted to point some "inconveniences" and talk about. I don't have ready solution to address all concerns. Those are just my observations and propositions of changes to (from my perspective) make Tasmota user world even better.īeta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback. new fatures should have the default value set to be compatiblie with previous versions (those with the same number on major position) - SetOption65 to name one, which was introduced ON (or OFF I should say) by default.minor and patch version number changes should be considered "safe" for average user and do not brake compatibility - somewhere between 9.1.0 and 9.5.0, MCP230xx API has changed.should change the version major number - there should "bells start ringing" in user head before upgrading from version 9.x to version 10.x an API change, memory layout change, etc.Maybe you (Tasmota Dev Team) could adjust the way new features are implemented and introduced: Migrating from older versions (even with the same number on the major posiotion) to one including this functionallity can be really tricky, not only because many things could change (be incompatibile) but also because new options have defaults set to values which can change someone's plans for evening or weekend )Īgain - I'm not complaining, this is Open Source project and dev team is spending it's own spare time to move this project forward: adding new things and features, new drivers, new options, help other users to solve their problems, etc. Let's assume that someone find out, that dummy energy monitor sensor was implemented (brilliant idea to tell the truth) and find this solution very interesting. I'm not complaining, because there is version change on the major position (on the other hand I was not able to find this information - change of MCP230xx driver API - in CHANGELOG.md). Not a big deal, I switched sources to v6.6.0 tag, compile and I was good to go (especially that I was putting compenents on my bench lab). Well, it shows up that I could not because mcp23017 driver is reporting its state in different way and my NodeRed flows needs bazillion changes to work with new version. In the new location I decided to go with v9.5 version. My working solution is based on v6.x so it is a bit rusty. Yesterday, I was trying to duplicate solution based on Tasmota, MCP23017 and NodeRed in other location. I'm not trying to fix things which are not broken (still have plenty of devices running on v6.x), but sometimes there is new functionallity or setting which can be usefull or there can be the need to implement the same solution (based on Tasmota and automation created in NodeRed), working months or years in one place, in different location. I've got many Tasmota devices running at home and other locations.

Prince Abdulaziz Bin Salman – Saudi Minister of Energy – unveiled that reaching such milestone highlights the sound directives and proper guidance paid by the two brotherly countries, significantly represented by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques - King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and His Excellency President Abdelfattah Al-Sisi. The in-country value of the investment is significant, generating new jobs and knowledge transfer for people in KSA and Egypt. The connection directly contributes to the realization of these goals. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is working to increase the share of natural gas and renewable energy sources to approximately 50% by 2030 (2), and the Arab Republic of Egypt intends to increase the supply of electricity generated from renewable sources to 42% by 2035 (3). Both countries have ambitious carbon-neutrality targets. The HVDC link will give Egypt access to the interconnected power grids of the Arabian Gulf, and KSA access to those of North Africa, whilst strengthening grid resilience and power supply security. The business will also be providing system studies, design and engineering, transformers, valves, high-voltage equipment, technical advisory, commissioning and service, in collaboration with two consortium partners – Saudi Services for Electro Mechanic Works in KSA and Orascom Construction in Egypt. This includes the supply of three HVDC converter stations located at Medina and Tabuk in KSA, and Badr in Egypt (1). The global technology and market leader will be delivering advanced technologies for the high-voltage direct current (HVDC) power link between the countries. The connection will support the flow of power in multiple directions between three terminals and will be the first interconnection allowing the exchange of electric power between both countries. The award is for the first ever large-scale HVDC interconnection in the Middle East and North Africa, enabling the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) and the Arab Republic of Egypt to exchange up to 3,000 MW of electricity – much of which is expected to be generated from renewable energy sources in the future. Zurich, Switzerland, Octo– Hitachi ABB Power Grids today announced that it is the lead in a consortium that has been awarded a major contract worth several hundreds of millions of US dollars from the Saudi Electricity Company and the Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company.

We stopped for lunch at Bajo Point, where we could hear seals barking on the nearby rock reef. I was somewhat thankful to return to the pink toned seaweed and pebble beaches! Camping at Beano Creek I’m not the best at rock hopping so found this stretch a bit slow. Thanks to the tide, we could walk around some of these boulders but not all. We then headed into a stretch of small and medium sized boulders, some quite wet and slippery. The packed sand around Calvin Falls and following rock shelves offered great hiking conditions, though we were slowed down by creek crossings. As a bonus, our entire hiking day would be on the beach!

Over the next few years, Yuquot became known as Friendly Cove by European traders and explorers. Interpreting the word ‘ nuutkaa‘ as a reference to the area, Cook renamed the inlet Nootka Sound and its inhabitants as the Nootka people. The Yuquot villagers instructed Cook to nuutkaa (‘go around’) with his ship into the harbour. In 1778, Captain James Cook became the first European to land on shore.

It wasn’t until February 2023 that Personal Capital was finally rebranded as Empower although nothing has changed in the product itself. If you’re confused over why Personal Capital is now Empower, then it’s due to Empower’s takeover of Personal Capital in August 2020. This “freemium” style formula has proved incredibly successful and Empower estimates it now has around 1.6 million customers managing over $300 billion in assets. Obviously, Empower does encourage you to use one of its Financial Advisors but there’s no hard sell if you don’t want to. If you do choose to contract a Financial Advisor, you need a minimum of $100,000 in assets.įees for using an Empower Financial Advisor range between 0.69%-0.89% of your overall portfolio profits although this is on a sliding scale to the more you invest. The good thing is that Empower’s Financial Advisors are fiduciaries which means that they are legally bound to act in your interests and not the financial instruments or funds they are recommending. This is where Empower makes its money but you only get charged a commission on the value of your investment portfolio if you choose this option. However, if you have a significant funds to invest, it also gives you the option of using one of Empower’s Financial Advisors for more personalized investment advice. If you’re a DIY investor, you can simply take the results and recommendations that Empower gives you and manage your investments yourself for free. These “robo-advisor” tools both identify areas where you may be being ripped-off in fees and make recommendations how to re-balance your portfolio for better yields. It’s aimed primarily at those with investments or pensions and offers some surprisingly good – but optional – wealth optimization tools.
