My ESPHome file is higly modularized with a lot of other functionality that is not relevant right now, so here's an extract of the relevant bits. It's a bit more verbose than usual because it's the output of ESPHome validation process, which dumps the processed YAML after "expanding" it.

Context:

light switch is a Shelly, but not really relevant — any ESP relay with a button would work
connected to the relay are smart lights talking Zigbee
when switch is "smart", relay remains on all the time and switch talks to HASS that turns on/off the light accordingly

FAQ on the xz-utils backdoor (CVE-2024-3094)

This is a living document. Everything in this document is made in good faith of being accurate, but like I just said; we don't yet know everything about what's going on.

Update: I've disabled comments as of 2025-01-26 to avoid everyone having notifications for something a year on if someone wants to suggest a correction. Folks are free to email to suggest corrections still, of course.

Background

GPU Driven renderer design for Godot 4.x

Goals:

The main goal is to implement a GPU driven renderer for Godot 4.x. This is a renderer that happens entirely on GPU (no CPU Dispatches during opaque pass).

Additionally, this is a renderer that relies exclusively on raytracing (and a base raster pass aided by raytracing).

It is important to make a note that we dont want to implement a GPU driven renderer similar to that of AAA/Unreal, as example.

Vision Pro style API on Godot

Overview

Apple recently unveiled the Vision Pro. This type of device is mostly designed for augmented reality (AR), in the sense that it should be able to throw 3D models and rendering combined into a camera.

Normally with pass-through AR, one would expect to get the camera feed as an image and maybe some environment cubemap generated from the camera to apply proper lighting into the objects.
