Person just wanted to automate a few "dumb" appliances but ended up building his own system (software and hardware) to do this.
I wish I had time to bike shed like this. Just learning, tinkering, and enjoying life.

That's puttering, tinkering, or experimenting. It's a good thing.
Bikeshedding is wasting time on trivial and pointless efforts or discussions. It's a bad thing. :)
