I don't know that those have to be in conflict... If you make a 1 word change to the second. "Too many chefs spoil the broth". Good to have extra hands helping, in almost every case - but only if the hands are well directed. If everyone thinks they're in charge, or doesn't know the scope of where they're in charge, odds of success drop.

I would just use the old "Home changes to 0" state, and add a conditional for night (not night) and another for a triggered timer. I call my timer "Nanny mode", and it just blocks 'away from home' automations while it's running. I just need to remember to hit a button on my dashboard once a day or so, starting the 16h timer.

Here's my "set the alarm and lower the blinds when we leave, and put them back when we get home" auto:

You just stumbled onto one of the great hacks of Indian cooking: Onion Masala base. https://myheartbeets.com/indian-onion-masala/ try the butter paneer in this series - so easy, so good.

Fill the reservoir in the bottom to just below the pressure valve with good water. Put the grinds basket/funnel thing on, and full it just barely below full with medium grind beans. Screw on the top, put it on the stove on whatever burner is closest in size, open the lid. Turn on the heat and wait until it finishes and you hear it spurt air, then take it off and pour. Time on the heat should be around 3 min total, so start with a low-mid temp, and adjust up each attempt until you know where that heat level is for your stove. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.

Did you hear about this guy's ears? Neither did he.

These are the best. The Flex Firehose ones may not be super repairable, but they straight up last forever. I wore a rotation of 3 of these for 3 years straight before I saw the first fray.

I'm just waiting for the black hole to form just from the mass of the infinite people between 0-1 on the Reals track.

Cory Booker. I could see him saying it back, and that'd be nice.

On one hand, it would be nice for us to drop the smart plug here, but at least those can be entirely local-only. I highly doubt any device API would be local.

Looks like Lena Belfiore

P-edo, p-eepee, p-enis. Has been known since the Steele Dossier revealed it's likely existence that at least one of those "P tapes" are out there, in Russia, held as compromat over Cheeto Mussolini.
