    Oddly at the place I was with we saw literally the exact same metrics but inverse: productivity increase by mid-30%. Everyone hated the office so that makes sense. My philosophy on…

    Home Assistant + Node Red ~= 95% of anything I have ever needed of IoT (and this watch could tie into by extension). Albeit, I have put in easily >120 hours of work over the past c…

    So I've been waiting patiently for something equivalent to Home Assistant but for QS and you pop up often. You're probably most expert to say what progress is being made for an int…

    I'm OK with it so long as it's something on GitHub, useful, and you can drop in replace it.

    Could this be used to, say, collect a "royalty" on a work of art or good sold in perpetuity? In other words I create a painting that sells at a garage sale for $5. Then it is picke…

    Odd to pick HRBlock/Intuit as they are used for convenience and because we don't have a central system like Sweden and have in the US 50 different states and territories with 50+ d…

    Home Assistant takes many disparate brands, services, devices, APIs and architectures for the world of IoT devices and yet they are able to somewhat successfully pull them together…

    I feel like the QS space needs a suite not unlike Home Assistant where you can plugin multiple integrations to these various services and begin collecting data relatively simply. H…

    For those browsing here there is a common term for "tracking personal data" this called "Quantified Self". If you are interested in it as a n00b like I am this will greatly help st…

    This looks a lot like WrapAPI[0] which I found a while back researching for Postman Galaxy hackathon. How are you guys different? [0]: https://wrapapi.com/

    Can this replace the broken and horrible tools of rbenv, pyenv, and pipenv? I shudder whenever a new version comes out what it does to my shell when I have a broken version (includ…

    The algorithm is more basic than the music it passes judgement on so take the verbiage with a grain of punk-vinyl-you-never-heard-before.

    Anyone here remember turntable.fm? I do. Sad. JQBX.fm isn't the same either. That was a great way to get a higher "hit" ratio though.

    I moved out of state BEFORE an IPO on options gained while working in CA that I then purchased as a resident outside of CA. This does not work as others are describing it. CA did a…

    everyone is coming up with more complicated systems to usher it to the flames (e.g. vacuum it up and robotic arm drop it in, hook up a fan on low speed, etc) when it's really as si…

    The irony is we're talking about Good vs Evil of potential AI systems. It could be a nuclear arms race but I suspect we would be better for it. When information has been free it ha…
