The six stages of debugging - ESP32 Debugging Every dev knows the six stages of debugging—from 'That can't happen' to 'How did this ever work?' On embedded projects I’ve lived on Serial.println and blinking LEDs, but modern ESP32s have built‑in USB/JTAG so you can set breakpoints, step through code, and inspect variables right in the Arduino IDE. In the video, I show how to jump faster from 'Why does that happen?' to 'Oh, I see.' 13 November 2025
Using ChatGPT for home automation In another thrilling adventure with ChatGPT, I endeavored to integrate it with a Raspberry Pi, effectively turning it into my own personal light switch. My custom ChatGPT plugin, sporting just two endpoints, could revolutionize how we handle APIs, as it managed to control five different lights with simplicity and style. With a dash of YAML magic, ChatGPT managed to deduce the entire process, paving the way for future smart home projects. Big or small, the potential applications are endless and might even lead to computers communicating in human language! 14 May 2023
