I've made 3 that use pi as the primary interaction, with custom tools and scripts.

1. family tree based on wikitree format. Transcribe records, verify/edit, then incorporate them into the tree with full citations and biographies. This one is the big one. It includes a tree browser and best genealogical practices.

2. Pool Math replacement. Log pool chemistry tests to markdown files and suggest the right amount of chemicals to balance.

3. Calorie counter. Log calories to a markdown file, look up foods and amounts in online databases, sync with garmin connect for exercise calories.

All of these are written with AI but also are interacting with pi and telegram, mostly using deepseek v4 flash.

Cows only produce milk as a result of being pregnant.

We have those, too.

WSL is fine for some purposes. It just never got better.

I just wiped my 4-year install on my work thinkpad for direct Linux after wrestling with WSL2 which broke in numerous ways in every update:

- WSLg is a pile of crap, and it feels like no development was done on it after it was initially released. It is so easy to crash the display server. It still does not resume from sleep reliably. Anything that quickly opens windows or does any sort of automation (like selenium/cypress tests) are prone to breakage.

- Networking works until it doesn't. Sometimes updates break DNS. Sometimes the bridged networking just fails.

The second problem here is why I finally threw in the towel. I could not get networking working reliably in the VM after a routine Windows update. Everything feels completely hacked together.

I only have to charge my kid's bounce every 2 days, 2.5 days usually. I do not turn on the "Live Tracking" very often but location updates, boundary fence notifications, voice/canned messages work great.

> What’s also drawing people’s attention is the size of the lot the home sits on: nearly 7,900 square feet.

Is that a big lot for that neighborhood? 0.18 acres?

Makes my 0.33 acre lot seem overly spacious.

I like maintaining a work/clean profile and a personal one. It is very annoying to mix histories when something like screensharing happens are you do not want to advertise what sort of messageboards or forums you post on.

Firefox has its own profiles, which are separate from containers.

`about:profiles` shows you a window for creating and switching to a different one. I add that as a bookmark on the bookmarks toolbar of the two profiles I use

I believe there is a `-P` option to open a new window with a specific profile. I do not use it. I usually just open the browser and then go to the aforementioned bookmark and open the other profile.

I use different colorways to differentiate the windows between the two profiles.

There may be addons that alleviate a few of the pain-points with Firefox profiles. I have not tried to find any.

> We normally coach people to eat 1 g of protein per pound of lean muscle mass. So for 150 pound person that would be 150 g of protein per day or approximately 600 cal from protein.

"Lean muscle mass" excludes the fat on the body, right? A 150lb person should have less than 150lb of lean muscle mass.

USDA recommends 54g using their calculator. Don't forget the 38 grams of fiber! :)

Yes, there's not a lot of variety in just eating potatoes. Maybe some people don't need variety.

People lose a lot of weight this way. Insulin sensitivity increases. Insulin-lowering medicines can be reduced or stopped. Bad cholesterol drops to the floor.

If you go beyond monomeals of potatoes and add in tasty vegetables (like you do in keto) and limit the fat you add to the meal, you will have all the benefits of the potato diet without the mind-numbing boredom.

Variety in the keto approach? There are only so many ways to dress up chicken/beef/pork and cheese.
