Author here. With https://evcc.io I have (with tremendous help) developed a home energy management system, originally for solar-optimised EV charging (big in Germany/Europe with users in the US or even Australia).
Turning into a general HEMS proves hard. While all our current algorithms are strictly predictable, we're lacking global, multi-goal, non-linear optimisation. Maybe SAT solvers, maybe non-linear programming, maybe stochastic or ML/AI can be part of the solution. We have lots of data but no algorithm or technical approach and I'm unsure where to go next.
thank you for evcc - awesome pice of software that I'm using every day. I actually built some small prediction models around it figuring out if I should charge my car or feed in the electricity. Not sure if that is what you have in mind but I would be interested to hear what kind of algorithm you have in mind. Maybe I can help?
Too late, too little. Please don't get me wrong- I'm saying this with the utmost respect of a long-time paying user. I used to love and recommend ST but then it stalled in development. Have replaced it with VSCode ~3 years ago.
The approach VSCode takes as platform with a clear development and plugin model is imho better suited and what gives VSCode the competitive advantage (apart from MS backing it of course).
What remains is the Sublime keyboard shortcuts that I‘m using even on VSCode.
Really great to have something that feels a lot like Airtable open source. If I had a wish I'd say decouple the database layer instead of providing support for more databases. Let the community help build abstractions and that way also open Firetable for non-public or embedded data stores/ data bases.
