Not that I recall, but I feel you have a story you’re not telling us?
I’ve forgotten how to spell “of” before because I couldn’t sound it out. Not my proudest moment.
Uv. Obviously.
I built a solar tracking system with light sensors for a solar cooker. It worked beautifully on a cloudless day but sometimes got confused when there were some clouds. Some weeks later I realized that my glorious invention was trying to find something we know the position of at any time during the day. Considering the time and money spent and how smart I had felt for building that monstrosity made me feel very dumb afterwards.
A non-optical sensor based solution would require other sensors to calculate the relative position of the solar cooker oriented to Earth as well as calculate the elevation. Your solution is turnkey that you just slap down and it does everything needed without external input beyond solar radiance.
Also, a whole bunch of your approach has many other applications with only very minor tweaks. I like what you did.
No, but I have done and said stuff that gives me an intense feeling of embarrassment when I recall the event.

Wait, this isn’t a daily or near hourly occurrence? The longer you live you even have a longer list of these to recall intrusively when you’re doing completely unrelated things.
And the worst thing about age-related memory loss is that those fucking moments are stuck like glue forever! Can’t remember my phone number but will never forget the stupid thing I did/said that one day

Honestly, this isn’t a horrible idea. If the motion sensor is in a different location than the actual disposal, Like a motion sensor under a black panel instead of the light switch to remove the electrical hazard chance
