Running automated GUI load tests, found couple memory leaks that were otherwise slipping

I have some reading to do for tonight, excellent free guide by Michael Barr

Prototype PCBs for ESP32 3.5" TFT IoT control hub project

People, tools and processes – balancing the three as an IT team manager, and what happens to the team when one of them is neglected.
Reminder to self: done is better than perfect.

Toying with real-time 3D rendering on ESP32, adapted @elect_gombe 's code to my hardware setup

My solar water heater (220l) reached 79*C yesterday #summeriscomming
New post: http://DEV.BG tech talk #3 https://wp.me/pawL3e-1gi

Notes from my DEV.BG tech talk on the ESP32 IoT control hub – over 100 people signed up, sadly no recording was allowed.

Considering professional enclosure design for my #ESP32 control hub/thermostat project #IoT #homeautomation

Was crowded at my IoT presentation @ http://dev.bg today, thank you for attending!

Hmm.. just got a notification that @skype has been my phone's microphone in the background..

Drafting a 3.5" TFT+touch version of my IoT control hub project; upgraded to ESP32 WROVER to benefit from the extra PSRAM. Planning on adding LoRa support

Bigger is better.. 3.5" 480×320 TFT with touch for a future version of my #ESP32 IoT control hub project
New blog post: ESP32 OTA firmware update using compressed firmware image https://wp.me/pawL3e-1fF #mqtt #iot #esp32 #esp8266 #homeautomation

ESP32 OTA over 2G links kept timing out, so I push compressed firmware images over HTTP(s)/MQTT(s) instead – smaller, and far more reliable.
TODO research feasibility of OTA firmware update 'resume' feature; will pick-up from where last OTA stopped receiving the firmware, so, in case of failed OTA, it will resume from where we left off #esp32 #esp8266 #iot
Testing compressed binary OTA firmware update for #ESP32, similar to http://esptool.py's serial flash compression. Speeds up OTA by reducing the size of the image transfer over a sometimes unreliable/slow internet connection.. works over HTTPS and MQTTS #IoT

How my ESP32 nodes do OTA firmware updates over MQTT with SSL – a firmware notifications topic tells them when a new version is out.

#ESP32 OTA using #MQTT over SSL as transport and Node-Red as provider A short write-up of this here: https://harizanov.com/2019/01/esp32-ota-using-mqtt-over-ssl-as-transport-and-node-red-as-the-bin-image-provider/

Experimenting with dynamic frequency shifting, modem light sleep and TFT dimming to bring down power consumption to roughly 60mA while maintaining Wi-Fi connection to MQTT #ESP32

Got this universal USB interface cable today. Is the phone charger/interface hell repeating again?

Received a new toy #ESP32 esp32-cam
New post: Thoughts on time/date management on IoT nodes https://wp.me/pawL3e-1f0

Why IoT nodes need accurate time: SSL certificate validation, scheduling, logs – and how I handle NTP, timezones and DST on mine.

Join me on Feb 5 @DEV.BG Work & Share Coworking Space, 15-17 Tintyava str, Sofia where I will present a DIY #IoT control hub project I created. Event details: https://tinyurl.com/ya3egvup #ESP32 #homeautomation Got a notification that 100 already signed up for the event; Looking forward to a great networking tomorrow 🙂

A video of the TFT32 Wi-Fi provisioning GUI – touch-based initial setup, one of the trickier parts of any IoT product, work in progress.

Just received a Mediafire UM34C USB tester. First impressions are positive, might post a review later And of course I meant it is a RUIDENG UM34C 🙂
