This isn't just a call to all hackers...this is a call to all entrepreneurs. It really highlights the artificial success of many companies today.

There's an app called Dminder that notifies you when the sun is in the optimal position (highest point in the sky) to generate Vitamin D based on your location.

The most important first step is to test your current levels. Then you can use a Vitamin D calculator[1] to help get you a starting point for how much to supplement based on your desired target level -- recommended target range is 40-60 ng/ml (100-150 nmol/L). Then re-test in 3-6 months to check levels and adjust supplementation as needed.

Take a look at duplicity. http://duplicity.nongnu.org/

It does encrypted, incremental backups and can sync to many protocols including S3, DO Spaces, Dropbox, rsync, Mega.co...the list goes on. Super easy to set up. This is my go to backup solution for the cloud.

Ever since installing Arch + i3 on my old Macbook Pro years ago, traditional window managers feel so inferior now. I've been on the hunt, since, to find anything as close to i3 for MacOS as possible.

I did come close however...there's a hidden gem called Yabai[0] (formerly chunkwm) by koekeishiya on GitHub. For anyone looking for as close to i3 functionality as possible in MacOS, Yabai is definitely it. I'm really surprised I don't see more people recommend it as the developer has done an excellent job trying to bring the i3 experience to Mac.
