Teaching an AI Agent to Talk to a Light Bulb (and Why I Had to Get Up From My Desk)
I just shipped a PR that made a pile of stock-firmware Sengled W12-N15 bulbs reliably re-bind to a self-hosted MQTT broker for Home Assistant with no firmware flashing, no soldering, no physical mods. The fix itself is small (one file, ~120 lines of Python in SengledTools). The interesting part is how it got debugged: a back-and-forth between a coding agent and a human who kept having to leave the chair to walk over and power-cycle a light bulb.
Porting AI Music Generation to NVIDIA Jetson
Things used in this project Porting AI Music Generation to NVIDIA Jetson: A Case Study in GPU-Assisted Development of GPU-Accelerated Software The Full Circle: When Your Tools Run on the Same Hardware They're Building For There is a quiet irony in using an AI coding agent — running on GPU-accelerated infrastructure — to port GPU-accelerated software to an embedded GPU platform.
How GPU-Powered Coding Agents Can Assist in Development of GPU-Accelerated Software
The Dream: Transcribe Your Entire Media Library on a Device That Fits in Your Hand Imagine owning a massive Plex media library with hundreds of foreign-language films and TV shows. You want subtitles for everything, but manually sourcing them is a nightmare — mismatched timings, missing translations, incomplete coverage.

Easily implement data mesh architecture with domains in Fabric
Today, organizations are experiencing massive growth in the volume of data they handle. As a result, they face an ever increasing need to be able to organize and manage that data in a logical way that facilitates targeted usage and efficient governance. To meet this challenge, organizations are shifting away from traditional IT-centric data architectures, where the data is governed and managed centrally, to more federated models, organized according to line-of-business needs.

Things used in this project NVIDIA Jetson Orin 64 GB Developer Kit × 1 Background Large Language Models (LLMs) like Chat GPT and Llama 2 have been increasing in popularity due to their potential to fundamentally change how we work with data and human computer interfaces.
Load and visualize Covid-19 case data with the integrated Power BI experience
September 8th, 2022 How have major cities like London and New York been affected by Covid-19 and how can we use historical data to explore how these effects might impact us in a post-Covid world? This was the question posed at a Microsoft Data + AI Hackathon held in partnership with the University of Oxford and Observable HQ at the New York City Reactor Meetup space this July.
Artificial intelligence at the edge: Building in-demand IoT skills
In this blog post, we’ll talk about AI at the edge and why it matters to developers; the core technologies to support Applied AI and IoT within the Azure ecosystem; and how to get started learning about Microsoft Azure and IoT and skilling up on Applied AI for IoT. IoT skills are in high demand The global market for IoT (Internet of things) is growing exponentially, from $250B in 2020, to a projected 1.6T by 2025.
Treat Your Inner Developer to Hands-On IoT Training and Projects
Illustration: © IoT For All When you consider our reliance upon digital collaboration—and you think about the pace of advancements in the IoT space—finding ways to upskill, inspire creativity, and plug into the broader IoT community to get hands-on IoT training is essential. While in-person connections like user groups and tech events may feel like a distant memory, I’m thankful that we can still connect online.
Introduction to the Azure IoT Edge Camera Tagging Module
In this post we will introduce the Azure IoT Edge Camera Tagging Module. This module will deploy a service onto compatible IoT devices to capture images from live RTSP video streams. These images can then be uploaded from the module into Microsoft Cognitive Services for use in training object detection and image classification models, or into Azure Blob Storage for archival purposes.
GPU-Accelerated IoT Workloads at the Edge
Bring IoT to the Edge! Introduction In this article, we will look at how to create GPU accelerated IoT Edge workloads targeting the NVIDIA Jetson line of IoT devices. Portions of this content are planned to be delivered during an interactive workshop session as part of Microsoft Ignite 2019. If you are unable to attend the conference in person, we will give you all of the details that you need to know to run this content on your own, or in a public workshop environment. Let's get started.
.@pjdecarlo shows @obloch how to do #IoTEdge development with @AzureDevOps on the #IoTShow
The Internet of Things is a technology paradigm that involves the use of internet connected devices to publish data often in conjunction with real-time data processing, machine learning, and/or storage services. Development of these systems can be enhanced through application of modern DevOps principles which include tasks like automation, monitoring, and all steps of the software engineering process from development, testing, quality assurance, and release.
How to teach cloud-powered mobile app development to students
Over the past five years, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching a course titled “Cloud-Powered Mobile App Development” ten times at the University of Houston with my long-time friend and faculty colleague Jesus Hernandez. I’ve been humbled by the course’s success, regularly producing some of the highest course evaluations in the department and earning me a less-official ranking of highest-rated professor on ratemyprofessors.com for the entire University of Houston.
Ridiculously Cheap Subscription and Payment Services with Stripe and Azure Functions
Online businesses which sell goods direct to consumers are often powered by online payment services. The server code which communicates with these payment services typically runs on hosted machines in datacenters which can be costly to service and maintain. In many cases, operators of these types of businesses have little concern for the underlying technology, they simply require a means to reliably showcase products to users and securely gather payment from interested customers.
Bash on Windows as Integrated Terminal in Visual Studio Code
Visual Studio Code 1.2.0 is out now, and includes a variety of exciting new features. For example, a new integrated Terminal that allows you to stay within VS Code while using your platform’s shell. You may have also heard that Bash support has been added to Windows 10 in the current Windows Insider Preview. Hmmm???
The Maker Show: Mini - Intro to IoT.Devices
Microsoft.IoT.Devices is a free open source library that makes it easy to add support for many sensors and devices to Windows IoT Core. A portion of this library (the scheduler) was already demonstrated in Episode 13 - Breaking out of the Loop. In this Maker Mini we cover why the library was created, the problems it helps you solve, and how to get started using the library. Some key features of the library: The home page for the library is aka.ms/iotdevices.
The Maker Show: Episode 12 - Connecting Particle Photon to Cloud Services
Using a Wi-Fi enabled micro-controller that is the size of a matchbook, we can attach sensors to gather information about the world around us. We can then take that data and publish that up into cloud services for either online archival, real-time analytics, building predictive models, or using visualization software to create new insights into the date that we are gathering. We are going to show you exactly how to do that using the Particle Photon and the Microsoft Azure Cloud.
