    I haven't really shared this outside of my immediate circle, but I actually have a project like this. It plays on ~all events at the moment but has a special multi-tone sound when …

    Surely grok has a built-in market with too-online, retired boomers. It's free real estate.

    If you haven't already, set your vault directory in iCloud to `Keep Downloaded`. I had issues with notes going missing or just being empty shortly after saving, and this setting fi…

    But is that really a market worth going after?

    I had this happen a bunch when I was using iCloud sync on multiple devices. I think it was mostly solved by setting the directory to “keep downloaded” (right click on it in finder …

    I'm building a Home vault like this currently. With the new obsidian cli, you can do a lot more with letting an agent manage things and update dashboards, etc. for you.

    Agreed. Zed is my daily driver and I love it, but the autocomplete is not good. I end up disabling AI altogether.

    The current version does not. I’m not sure if the official Health export includes that info. My current doctor unfortunately uses some app that doesn’t integrate with Apple Health.…

    Awesome! I was just looking at dxt. I’ll take a look tomorrow.

    No, you can ask arbitrary queries. I’ve found that foundation models (and Claude in particular) do a great job at writing sql. It even seems to handle time series questions pretty …

    Good idea. The video on Twitter has a few different queries (though I don’t expand all of them) in order to build the dashboard. If you pause it at different points, you can see so…

    Very cool. I already had this started at GitHub so I must have seen it in the past. I love the use of a notebook as an updating dashboard here. One of my demos before this MCP serv…

    It seems like you still need to export the database here, so maybe same amount of steps since duckdb can import CSV files directly as well. I think supporting the native Apple Heal…

    Agreed. I'm fine jumping through a couple hoops to get my own data in this case.

    I haven't gone deep on prompting around health data specifically, but I've built some other data agents. Agree that there isn't always an easy path, depending on the domain. It mig…

    Great minds :) I haven't experimented with MCP too much because I have some reservations about it, but I decided to go MCP-first for this to see how it feels to prototype around it…

    Simple Health Export CSV was just the fastest route to proving to myself that the idea would work. I really considered making an app but decided that was one nerd snipe too many fo…

    It would work with those devices since it all funnels into apple health. I have a Withings scale as well so it’s part of my export. But you’re right, there may be easier integratio…

    I actually started with this but the export always had the appearance of stalling unless I left it for long periods. For a first version, the CSV export app was much quicker. And a…
