+## Todo
+
+Things I'd like to automate so this place stays current instead of rotting — most of them are the same shape: pull from some external source and render it to a markdown file.
+
+- [ ] **Sync Apple Reminders → [lists/todo.md](lists/todo.md)** — I keep real todos in Apple Reminders but rarely mirror them here. Find an easy export/sync (a Shortcut, or a small script via `reminders-cli` / AppleScript → markdown) so the [Todo list](https://davidawindham.com/til/lists/todo) isn't hand-maintained.
+- [ ] **Sync Last.fm → [lists/now/listening.md](lists/now/listening.md)** — pull recent scrobbles from the Last.fm API and render to markdown so [Now / Listening](https://davidawindham.com/til/lists/now/listening) updates itself.
+- [ ] **Generalize the "external source → markdown" sync** — both of the above are identical in shape, so build one small repeatable pattern (a `scripts/sync-*.mjs` per source, run on a schedule or in the prebuild step) so the next one is trivial: Letterboxd → Watching, StoryGraph/Goodreads → Reading, Strava → … etc.
+- [ ] **Import my other sites as markdown for the davo-bot corpus** — convert my other sites (davidawindham.com, davidwindham.com, srh, …) to markdown and feed them into the [ralph](https://code.davidawindham.com/david/ralph) RAG / vector pipeline, so the AI [davo-bot](https://davidawindham.com/til/ai) answers from my whole web presence, not just this TIL site — more complete retrieval and citations.
+
 ## Log
 
 - 26/06/06 - reworking the [AI page](https://davidawindham.com/til/ai): dropping Markprompt/OpenAI for a self-hosted assistant — Claude (Haiku) + local vector search over my own notes/docs/lists/posts, answers that link back to the source pages, as a little pop-up "Clippy" widget I can drop on any of my sites. Only answers from my stuff. Backend rides on my [ralph](https://code.davidawindham.com/david/ralph) RAG/MCP server (SQLite + sqlite-vec + local Ollama embeddings).

+
+Today I learned that Duke Energy can just cut the power off of my AC condensors  with Power Manager. And up until yesterday, I had no idea what Power Manager[^1] even was or that we had it. Just when it was getting nice and warm yesterday afternoon we noticed it was a tad toasty upstairs. 
+
+<!-- truncate -->
+
+I always suspect our old unit because it's 28 years old according to the last HVAC tech guy here for service. Everytime a new service dude shows up, they're always like 'that old unit is still running' as if it shouldn't be. Perhaps made back in the day when you couldn't stop a Trane[^2]. 
+
+![](/img/power-manager.jpg)
+<div style={{display: 'flex',  justifyContent:'center', alignItems:'center', fontSize:'small', marginBottom:'20px'}}>👈🏻 Old trusty & the sneaky power manager box 👉🏻</div>
+
+Thinking I might be spending the evening under fans, I did the spot check and noticed that not only was the upstairs unit not running, the other compressor wasn't running either. Checked the breakers went back outside and remembered that about a year ago during our renovations, these little boxes showed up outside and I remember thinking to myself, I suppose they're gonna want me to enroll in some new fangled thing but didn't pay any attention otherwise. 
+
+It actually didn't occur to use that Duke Energy would cut our A/C mid afternoon on the hottest day of the year until after I had called our normal HVAC guys and a backup crew. Both being off was the giveaway alongside of the red lights coming from both boxes. When I called the scheduling gal back at the HVAC places, she said 'yeah, I was going to call you back and have you check because that's been several other customers in the last hour'. 
+
+Meanwhile Ginny has already dialed the Duke Energy number on the box and started the what would become an hour and a half on the phone trying to cancel the 'Power Manager' program we had never knowingly signed up for. Found out we had saved exactly $8 whole dollars so far from the progam, which we likely ate back up trying to cool our house back down ten degrees from the 85 it had reached in the time both units were disabled. She got us unenrolled - click of setting somewhere but I asked her to follow up and have the boxes removed. 
+
+I'm all for being conservative with energy. We set our thermostats on 75. And I'm all for pitching in to have a reliable provider for everyone. I'm quite certain it's not us straining the grid and it makes me wonder what other customers thought. I glad to not have third world power outages, but I'm also not too keen on some dude coming on the property to install devices that control what I do with the electricity once it hits my house. We know our local Duke Energy rep and we thought about giving him an earful, but I'm quite certain he's heard it before. The second HVAC guy just laughed when I called back to cancel that service. He said 'pretty sneaky aren't they' and that's mostly my takeaway. 
+
+I think about the growth in our area, the failed nuclear plant down the road, and the power hungred needs of AI. It also makes me think about energy indepedence and relative it's grip on the world. The term Energy Crisis hasn't really popped up enough recently even though I suppose you could say the Hourmoz are really just that. My dad mentioned late 70s gas lines[^3] not too long ago in conversation and It reminds me a speech by Jimmy Carter[^4] mostly from how it was reference in the film _20th Century Women_[^5].

+ * Production: the widget bundle (/ask/widget.js) and its API (/ask/api/ask) are
+ * served by the ralph RAG/MCP server behind an Apache proxy at
+ * davidawindham.com/ask/. Local dev: they're served directly by the ralph HTTP
+ * server on http://localhost:3001 (routes /ask/widget.js and /api/ask), so the
+ * dev site loads them cross-origin from there.
+ *
+ * The widget auto-initializes from this script tag's data-* attributes (it reads
+ * document.currentScript.dataset). We FIRST check that the widget URL really is
+ * JavaScript before injecting it: where the backend isn't reachable, the request
+ * returns the SPA's HTML fallback, and injecting that throws "Unexpected token
+ * '<'". The content-type probe makes this a silent no-op until the widget is
+ * actually being served. window.__dawaskLoaded (set by the widget) keeps it to a
+ * single instance across Docusaurus SPA navigation.
+ *
+ * NOTE: for it to *answer* in dev, the ralph server must include
+ * http://localhost:3000 in ALLOWED_ORIGINS (the /api/ask CORS allowlist). The
+ * button itself appears regardless (/ask/widget.js has open CORS).

 I'm often searching online documentation for answers to commands, configurations, and error messages. I figured that since I spend most of my working time with the terminal, git, and text files, a more efficient and easier method of documenting the time I spend reading other documentation would be to build my own TIL. This way the information I learn will be easy to record, search and edit. The problem is that I've found myself repeating those searches because of the breadth and depth of the amount of functions and libraries involved in development. My wife suggested I call it TIHIDI 'this is how I did it' after explaining what I was working on. It makes sense to use a static documentation instead of database because it's quicker, easier to search, under version control, and the file formats are interoperable with other software and publishing frameworks.
