This is pretty cool, a little clumsy though.

The $35/mo pricing seems off to me. DataGrip is $9 a month and feels more capable - though I only spent a couple of hours with ultorg but I didn't see any benefit worth paying 3x for. Again though, only a couple of hours of use. I also don't know why I'd be paying more for a tool than I am for the database service its connecting to.

No, it's a full on camera app.

You can install Safari separately.

I daily drive stage manager. It's made me quite a bit more productive.

Filth is an interesting word.

mailtrap has a send limit on the free plan.

If you compared svelte to vue to react, vue is much more like svelte than it is react.

Backblaze is not a good choice for most things unless you were using it strictly for backup. Their S3 compatibility, as is most S3 compatibility, is a cruel joke last I looked at it.

I publish a mildly(?) popular offloading plugin for WordPress and adding Backblaze support was my biggest regret.

Flonase applied to the skin with a hydrocolloid bandage (we use Dynaderm) on top, then apply the freestyle on top of that.

A lot of people are very allergic to freestyle's adhesive. The above is the common way to deal with it. Like there is a whole facebook group filled with thousands of people on the topic.

We use this with my son's freestyle: https://miaomiao.cool

Seems strange this doesn't support Nightscout as a source.

That's an unfortunate name.

Yet the majority of diabetics wear insulin pumps with tubing when non-tubing options exist.

Nothing beats a blood sample, but interstitial fluid (which is invasive kind of) is good enough for insulin dosing. Most CGMs (Dexcom, Freestyle, etc) work this way. They don't sample blood, they sample the fluid between cells.

For backup I use CloudBerry + Amazon Glacier. I don't need to sync though, just backup.

A decade is being kind of generous. But your comment is spot on.

Doesn't work in Netscape Navigator 3 Gold. :/

A mix of Scratch on the laptop and Game Builder Garage on the Switch.

Calling Hello Games incompetent is pretty unfair and kind of petty.

I advertise pretty heavily on Instagram because, of all the platforms I advertise on, it's the most bang for the buck. I get more conversions from Instagram than anywhere else by almost a factor of 5.

This is going to kill engagement. I'd rather pay more for clicks than now be jammed into a crowded feed for hostile eyeballs.

All performers in videos on OF need to be verified and submit paperwork or it'll get pulled.

Medium is blocked on some ISPs in Vietnam. My guess is because "overseas agitators" use it to talk shit about the government.

I've been chewing nicorette for over 6 years.

I had the Odyssey2 as a kid and hated it, mostly because it wasn't an Atari 2600 (I was five or six at the time).

I do remember the game Quest for the Rings very fondly though.

We got ours from https://miaomiao.cool/ but it took almost 2 months to get. I'd also order extra stickers.

If you need xdrip4ios, let me know and I can put it on testflight for you.

We've found them to be pretty reliable here. They tend to lose accuracy for extreme highs and lows, but when it's within 80-250 it's pretty spot on with our blood meter.

xDrip also has a feature that will calibrate the libre with pokes which increases the accuracy.

We never bolus off the libre's readings though, but it's fantastic for trends and seeing spikes and crashes in real-time. For example, I can see that my son is high af between 8am to 11am (post breakfast spike), so I've tweaked his basal rate a few times so that he's always in range now during that time period with no crashing afterwards.

I mean, I would love a dexcom over the libre any day of the week, but I'll take what I can get here in Vietnam.

My son does something similar. In Vietnam, only the Freestyle Libre 1 is available, so we got the aftermarket MiaoMiao transmitter for it. The transmitter talks to an iPhone running xDripForiOS (https://github.com/JohanDegraeve/xdripswift) which, in turn, pushes the CGM data to nightscout (https://nightscout.github.io). We can then follow that data on nightscout using xdrip on our own phones.

It's been a real life changer. Before I'd have to stay up at night to check his blood a couple of times, but now I no longer need to. We've been able to flatten his curve and keep him in a sane range by adapting his basal rate based on the data. I can see when he is dropping low at school and inform them to correct the situation.

I'm not sure why the author isn't using nightscout data for his complication though. Great article, none the less.

I'm not sure why you'd even want this. As someone who had hypertension, so many factors affect your BP. I could drop mine by 10 points by just taking a warm shower. That's why I had to take it at the same time everyday, and it was a process to do it too. I'd have to sit in my chair in a prone position for 10 minutes or so, slow my breathing, relax, clear my head of thoughts, etc. Once I felt significantly relaxed, I took 3-4 measurements and averaged them all.

Having a heart condition is a very easy gateway to health anxiety. I had to stop wearing my apple watch, my wife keeps the pulse oximeter under lock and key, etc. because I became way too focused on the numbers while ignoring the context. It became a very bad feedback loop.

I don't want to monitor my BP 24/7.

It's also great for accessing stuff Vietnamese ISP's try so poorly to block.

We have a similar thing in Vietnam with Vinfast scooters. However, in practice, it doesn't work very well.

You rent batteries from Vinfast for your scooter and then, supposedly, can swap them out at a variety of Vinmart convenience stores or Vinfast dealers. The problem is that very few Vinmarts participate and the number of them seems to be shrinking. I've also been in a situation where they are simply out of batteries to swap.

And then on top of all of that, the types/shapes of batteries differ between scooter models.

That said, I love my scooter but I definitely don't bank on the battery swap stuff.
