    @carnivorous8008 Sadly, no. I have had to invent my own, and it’s still pretty dumb. (Blog post forthcoming.)

    @amitchell01 @carnivorous8008 My husband wants one of those. We had a LitterMate when they first came out (lugged one all the way from the US as a piece of luggage!) but our cats hated it.

    Blog post: IoT all the things! 💥 In which I use an @awscloud IoT button to create an automated litterbox reminder. 🙀💩 (Thanks @frankarr for the button!) https://t.co/a8Lhkmh6YA https://t.co/ALyhAvlWSE

    @frconil The rule of thumb is actually n+1. We have two cats, but only 2 litter boxes instead of 3.

    @elegantpoem @awscloud @frankarr The post is linked right there! 😂

    Dad has done it again. He just texted me photos of his latest barbecue invention: RON’S PIZZA BOMB. 😂🍕💣 Ready? https://t.co/tHOBwMxP47

    Step 1: “Pepperoni onions ham red pepper garlic sautéed in olive oil” (Incidentally, their stove is vintage and ADORABLE. It’s from the 60s and it’s blue with chunky buttons. I love it.) https://t.co/fzcoenEI8X

    Step 2: “2 pounds sausage rolled out 1/2 inch thick”. I think you can see where this is going. 🍕💣 https://t.co/Sx50zSOSQ2

    Step 3: “Put all ingredients on sausage along with pizza sauce and mozzarella cheese” 🍕💣 https://t.co/AFGZ5RhY5d

    Step 4: “Roll up and wrap with bacon. I passed on doing a weave” Skipping his signature bacon weave?? 😱🍕💣 https://t.co/akXxdQ85mf

    Step 5: “Put on smoker.” He appears to have fastened the bacon with toothpicks… 🍕💣 https://t.co/MbIKVGTtjY

    Step 6: “2 1/2 hrs later today it’s done. And the payoff… MONEY” 🍕💣 https://t.co/WUgqVwfd5b

    Clearly he needs to write a meat-based cookbook.

    And I didn’t even tell you the best part: he lives on BONER LAKE. Not kidding. The book title possibilities are endless, right?!

    @MkHeck Middle of nowhere Indiana!

    In our continuing exploration of smart home possibilities, I created an automated litterbox reminder using an AWS IoT button! No more 🙀💩. (Thanks @Frank Arrigo for the button!)

    Looks like I might have a row to myself on the way to Hong Kong! ❤️

  • IoT all the things! 💥

    IoT all the things! 💥

    When I was in Melbourne last week, my friend Frank gave me an AWS IoT Button to play with. The Snook has been on a home automation tear lately so I told him we’d need to come up something cool to do with it. Less than 24 hours later, he messaged me:

    Today the Button was still in its box, taunting me, so I decided it was time for action. A few short hours of fiddling later, the “Smart” Litterbox was born!

    Full details are over at Github, but in a nutshell: whenever we clean the litterbox, we single-click the button to update a timestamp in DynamoDB. A double-click creates a task to buy litter bags in Todoist, and a long-press creates one to buy litter. Once a day, a serverless Lambda function checks the timestamp in the database and sends a reminder email if it’s more than two days in the past.

    Pretty cool, eh? Now I just need to get some more Buttons!

    @soxyface @stevelikesyou It’s even worse. I actually had a talk accepted for it that I had to turn down. 😭
