Hello! I'm a full-stack engineer with a big love for the HomeLab & Home Assistant communities (I try to support some FOSS stuff when I can!)

If you've read this far, I humbly ask you to read my LinkedIn recommendations, and if you do follow up with an email, rick-roll me. I could use the laugh.

Sent an email a couple weeks ago! Just a bump to be on the lookout for it!

I wouldn't wait on this. The post has been up for a long time and appears to only be collecting CVs. I applied early last year and never got a response, and many others report the same.

Hi randomsofr, this posting has been continually posted since we are hiring on a rolling basis, not just for a single position. We have made hires for this position over time and continue to have openings.

We mention in our post-submission message that we only reach out if there’s a match, to spare applicant inboxes from negative messages (though perhaps we could make this messaging clearer). This follows what some companies such as Anthropic do and some of the reasoning in this post https://pablofernandez.tech/2023/02/03/you-should-not-send-r...

But I know that different people have different opinions on this, and we might shift to sending notification emails after resume review. I appreciate the feedback and I’m sorry about your experience here.

Was just looking at this the other day for personal reasons. Great work!

Have this be an add-on supported by HomeAssistant and I'm in

It's reliant on a bounty iirc for the server and device side code to be open-sourced. Will be about an hour after that I reckon and I cannot wait to contribute.

After you flash the exploit and SSH into the thermostat you can see it at https://github.com/codykociemba/NoLongerEvil-Thermostat/issu...

It's a boot script called /bin/nolongerevil.sh that supplies its own trust material and redirects traffic intended for frontdoor.nest.com to a hard-coded IP 15.204.110.215. 99.9% of this image is the original copyrighted Nest image. Maybe it's enough for the bounty though? And I suppose you could change that IP to a local server. If you wanted to publish the server side Nest API discovered through WireShark . Just stand up your own http rest server.

presumably it's the reverse engineered server that has most of the work put into it, and one would hope that's what is going to be released if the developer decides to

wish this could have been released prior to the google shutoff. But I am happy with the ecobee and its HA integration.

Same. My wife wouldn't let me wait. She insisted we be able to control the thermostat. :)

(The wheel on ours was broken so we could only control it via app).

This is awesome! I'll be trying this soon and joining the Discord after work!

Sounds good! Talk to you there.

I was hired by this guy for my first job in Software Engineering after applying via Hacker News in 2018. True story!

Have you seen snapcast? That's currently my go-to audio sync solution for running whole house audio. Always open to alternatives, but so far nothing beats the performance and accessibility

yes but only after posting! it's very cool—i'm actually a little embarrassed to not have seen it before.

they're doing a smarter thing by doing streaming. i don't do any streaming right now.

the upside is that beatsync works in the browser. just a link means no setup is required.

Check out Twinkly. Little pricey, but if you can grab them on sale they're super cool.
