I’ve done 3 Raspberry Pi projects. The first and favorite is a replacement for the old-school alarm system dialer. I had a home security system with a dialer that called up to three numbers when the alarm went off. I wanted to get rid of my land line and that was the thing holding me back. Now, the Pi is the modern replacement for that. It emails and texts a list of recipients when the alarm is triggered. I Raspberry Pi seems like overkill for that — the Pi could handle the entire alarm system, but then the project would be too big, and I wouldn’t finish. This project has been running reliably for about 3 years now. It paid for itself in about 3 months of no-more-land-line-bills.
just a note about the contractor insurance thing with being traumatized by looking at horrific images online for companies … did you guys forget about the Mechanical Turk article you guys covered awhile back? https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2018/01/amazon-mechanical-turk/551192/
