The Matter update is only for the hub to expose the devices connected to it over Matter, the bulbs themselves are still zigbee only. Better than nothing still.

But in this case are you really reaping any benefit of io_uring, if your existing code is still synchronous (except your io_uring layer)?
It seems to me to see any substantial benefit, you'd have to propagate async throughout your codebase, which would require rewriting your existing code to use some async primitive. I guess something like Java Loom does help you mask this, however.

This is a bit tangential, but was the lack of a STEM degree ever an obstacle in getting those jobs? Just asking because I'm currently in a similar position, regular SWE job, but I'd like to eventually move to something more mathy.

I have a heat pump (Fujitsu Waterstage) that does central heating via hydronic radiators and can also heat hot water. Annual heating costs are a lot lower than when we had oil based heating. You can also just get hot water heat pumps that are basically heat pumps integrated into a big tank of water.

For certain heating systems with a Siemens controller there is also BSB-LAN: https://github.com/fredlcore/bsb_lan
I just set up one with a Fujitsu heat pump. The idea I'm playing with is to control the outgoing water temperature based off the data from smart radiator thermostats.
