I've been working on a similar concept (aggregate health data from multiple sources) but on a wider scale: 1) annual bloodwork as part of my annual preventive care; 2) InBody measurements, including grip strength; 3) quality of air in my region; 4) Apple Watch but mainly for steps, sleep data and resting heart rate; 5) allergy panel or minerals/vitamins screen plus something nutrition-related along those lines (TBD).

The idea is to see trends and try to apply AI for correlating, at the first glance, completely unrelated data layers. Example how I'm thinking about this one: there's somewhat clear correlation that I sleep better when I do above average steps per day. How is my sleep quality affected if, let's say, I did above avg steps with a bad air quality at that time? (i.e. wild fires / pollen season / etc.)

I've built a Go application to ingest those data sources and currently finishing my first import use case - Apple Watch data.

Would be happy to connect and chat about this.

I recently helped my friend (3rd country national) to open a new business in Czech Republic.

It took 3 months from registration to sending her first invoice. The longest wait was on the bank account: a very few places are willing to open company account if you don't have an EU residency. Without the bank account, she couldn't deposit founding capital (základní kapitál) which is required to complete the registration. It's even funnier cause the minimum amount to deposit is 1 CZK (5 cents).

Total cost to start business was under $8,000. The most expensive were legal services: writing down all contracts and customer agreements was around ~$5,000.

I feel like this is such an untapped market for getting digitilized. I was thinking to actually sit and vibe code it at some point but can't imagine doing this alone.

So GitHub migrating entirely to Azure is going to reduce the number of outages they are experiencing, right? Right??

When it comes to GUI, I can click faster than I talk. Sometimes typing would be a bit faster as well, in case you need to correct an error. Also, imagine a bunch of people talking all day long in an open space instead of mouse clicking/typing.

Brain to machine signaling interface is the logical step forward if we really want to be faster at input.

Happy New Year to everyone here!

My 2024 resolution is to stop opening multiple HN tabs and never finishing majority of them to read through :-)
