For a while I was running a raspberry pi with homeassistant to automate my smarthome: turn on/off lights when I’m home, etc. Now just rely on Google Home for this.

Also run a camping bot to snag hard-to-reserve campsites

cma.xyz. Founder /paragraph, previously at Google and Coinbase

I forked & modified this repo: https://github.com/banool/recreation-gov-campsite-checker

They use neither; surprisingly recreation.gov has an API they query with a fake useragent.

I've camped >3 times using that bot - works well!

for the camping bot -- did you use selenium or another headless browser testing library?
