what i’m building will hopefully include this, but i’m cautious about trusting llms to make the right call. in fitness and health, people are often tempted by shortcuts or easy answers. it’s risky to give someone advice that could reinforce a bad idea or offer misleading.

I am surprised there is no single app that simply (1) collects all of your health data points - from whoop/oura data, blood tests, PDFs of lab tests you feed it, other scraped sources, AND (2) auto-generates a system prompt of sorts for any LLM when you ask any health question. ?.

thinking about this, i don’t see any reason to buy a playstation or xbox these days. you could just build a compact pc, put steamos on it, and have an even better home entertainment setup. other than that, all you’d need is a nintendo switch, and you’d have access to every game.

people always wonder where to find inspiration. honestly, it’s not as hard as it seems. you just have to look around and pay attention to the world around you. be observant of the little details in your environment. notice how things are designed, how people interact, and why.

there’s a lot of untapped potential in making apps more like games. most software feels too rigid and lacks the playful elements and feedback loops that keep people interested. game design is great at keeping users engaged with things like rewards, progress tracking, and a real.

bookmarks don’t work on social media because they end up buried in a folder far from where you actually spend your time. a better approach is to occasionally resurface your saved content in your feed, kind of like how youtube brings back videos from your watch later list.

if an input requires a value, if possible it should allow for a natural language expression. for example, typing <in a fortnight> for a date value should work, it saves having to navigate through calendars or other elements.
