Week notes 16/06/2025

Week of

What I've been up to

  • Continuing to read Ctrl + Alt + Chaos
  • We got our smart meter installed which sparked a new idea
  • Started building a new Go package named Octogo which interfaces with the Octopus Energy REST API.
  • Exploring how I can automate my home using home assistant and the Octopus Energy API to figure out when the rates are at their lowest
  • The Kotlin team have released a Kotlin LSP for VSCode I've been trying it out since I'm trying to consolidate on a single editor. It seems promising but lacks a lot of features that allows me to do all Kotlin development in VSCode.
