Took time to get the fine tuning done, but I think we are hitting our stride. Last full week w/ Loop before transition, and the last week on #iAPS w/ #OpenAPS algorithm. No dietary or activity changes otherwise. Better TIR, better avg glucose, less lows. Same daily insulin dose

Strange to look back on Twitter to figure out exactly how long we were w/ #Loop. Never got son to try #AndroidAPS (iPhone devotee). Finally time tonight to install #iAPS and after 4.5 years we are back to #OpenAPS algorithm. Had to resurrect an old #Edison rig to find settings

Reminds me of 2+ years ago soldering TI sticks to Edison baseboards for early #OpenAPS mobile rigs. Got a new antenna soldered on the old Rileylink so ready to try some Omnipod #Loop once pods arrive later this week. #WeAreNotWaiting

It's not everyday I get to share an announcement like this... Last night, Tidepool Loop was cleared by the FDA. This is the first iAGC clearance intended for interoperability across pump and CGM manufacturers. https://t.co/clyoReIOut @Tidepool_org #Loop #WeAreNotWaiting

We did it!!! Groundbreaking news: Tidepool Loop receives FDA Clearance! This is the first ever fully interoperable automated insulin dosing app, cleared by the FDA that began as a patient-led initiative. Find the inside scoop here: https://t.co/E4Z15pYjfZ

In this randomized trial, an open-source automated insulin delivery system controlled glucose time-in-range values significantly better than sensor-augmented insulin-pump therapy. https://t.co/qojM3q29uU

I love @nprscottsimon and @NPR, but as someone working in person every Friday (and every other day) since the pandemic started I must confess I’m really tired of all the commotion about “back in the office” as well as all the noise about people who don’t want to come back

Changed bolusPartialApplicationFactor from 0.4 to 0.5 in #Loop.Small increase in TIR and reduction in avg glucose w/o increase in hypoglycemia ( <3% ). May go to 0.6 soon. Individual customization that would never be possible w/ commercial device #wearenotwaiting

The chef at @DesanoPizzaATX was kind enough to share some tips when we visited recently. Trying to put them into practice tonight. So far I’m pleased with results

6 years ago today made this post on FB after the first 6 hours of #OpenAPS. Still remember the elation and amazement I felt as I watched the computer adjust my son's insulin and the amazing results. 6 years later, still using open-source AID. #WeAreNotWaiting

Great to have validation and proof of what we already intuitively knew. But this should help silence any remaining nay-sayers! So grateful for what open-source AID has done for our family. We are just a few days from our 6th-year anniversary of "closing the loop" with #OpenAPS

My #biketoworkweek ride took me past @DrakeUniversity this morning on the way to @BroadlawnsMed. Nearly 2,600 commuting miles on my @ebikeling converted E-bike in the last 2 years.

Very interesting presentation by @danamlewis on DIY closed loop systems including a comparison of available systems and an important comment on absolute risk vs. relative risk reduction. #ATTD2022

Nothing like being 1000 miles from home and having the @dexcom transmitter fail 3 weeks prematurely. Thank goodness I packed the backup. Traveling with diabetes sucks.
