    Hi HN, I'm developing an open-source water meter for Home Assistant and thought the HN community might be interested. I've been using some version of it after a few costly toilet leaks that my city meter missed. Recently, I decided to polish it up so others could use it. It might also function as a gas meter reader (https://youtu.be/9Dso4EBAoiE), but this is still experimental. The device runs on 3 AA batteries and utilizes an ESP32-S3.

    If you've built any web-based app in the last 15 years, you probably used something like Datadog, New Relic, Sentry, etc. to monitor and trace your app, right? Why should it be different when the app you're building happens to be using LLMs? So today we're open-sourcing OpenLLMetry-JS. It's an open protocol and SDK, based on OpenTelemetry, that provides traces and metrics for LLM JS/TS applications and can be connected to any of the 15+ tools that already support OpenTelemetry. Here's the repo: https://github.com/traceloop/openllmetry-js A few months ago we launched…
