Creating a bedtime button in Home Assistant
To help our ten-year-old get to sleep, we play some sleepy music in their bedroom each night. I've now automated this, using Home Assistant and a Zigbee scene button, so a single button press starts the automation and plays the correct Spotify playlist. Here's how I went about it. The button I bought the button...

Rad Dad Redemption
I've temporarily lost my cool dad status. Despite my son's well-planned and executed request (in which he invoked his "mental, physical and emotional health") to be able to purchase Red Dead: Online, I refused to let him have anything to do with it. Red Dead: Online is the networked version of the Red Dead Redemption...

Marshmallow Test and Parenting
[Sergey Bogdanov] This is a story about parenting, but also about the importance of considering context inclusively. We've all heard about the Stanford marshmallow experiment, but: "Kids from wealthier families waited longer than kids from low-income families. Not because they had more self-control, but because their environment made waiting feel safer.

Beyond Doing Half the Parenting
Doing my fair share for my son means I have to start carrying my weight in other areas at home. Growing up as an Indian-American son, in a family-oriented culture, I considered it an inarguable truth that I would have kids when I grew up. So when I met my wife and she first introduced the idea that…
