I thought about this along the way. It would be really cool to have some alert that says, "Baby is probably ready for a nap" or "Baby probably needs a diaper change", but the ML side of that is far outside my domain. Did

This actually makes me think the app needs some sort of quick statistical data in the dashboard, or somewhere, for non-regular caregivers (e.g. a friend/new babysitter). My wife and I have spent so much time with the data that we &quot

We thought about that and figured it wasn't really necessary (for us). I think it would need to be a new model, which could be used to track the status of pumped milk (and may well be super helpful, particularly later on) but UX wise t

At the time I was in Windows. I believe there is a Windows CLI command for this as well, but didn’t know it off the top of my head.

Woo! My biggest hope with open sourcing this is to find other new or soon-to-be new parents with ideas for making it even better. It is such a huge motivator for me. Looking forward to your input.

Nice! Feel free to PR or hit me up if you think of features that might be worth adding.

Very nice! I was just doing this for some domains yesterday on ad-laden, ugly as sin sites. It would be nice if the page URL would update with each request and provide a copy-pastable link (e.g. https://dnsrecords.io/q/

That looks good and is along the lines of how I was thinking Baby Buddy could develop if not as an open source project - e.g. as a service to sell to caregivers. I don't recall seeing that one back when we were looking at options.

Yeah, that could be really cool. I do actually have a Pi around with Snips[0] on it... I'll have to experiment. [0] https://snips.ai/

> enough to schedule naps anyway This was honestly the biggest motivator for me. Back when we were still a few months out, I found this article[0] and graph[1]. I was amazed at how erratic the sleep times are and it seemed to me that hav

Thanks! I went back and forth on open sourcing only because I think there may be potential for building a service like this for daycares in addition to parents. My decision to work on it stemmed largely from the ~20 different daycares my

All those kudos can go to my wife. She was incredibly supportive of giving me time to work on this before the birth and tweak it after. We also had lots of good support from her family. Definitely would not have happened without that.

Thanks for checking it out! Pen and paper was our original plan as well, but I wanted to be able to aggregate and graph information easily. I wouldn't be surprised if there are some TZ issues. I'm still fairly new to Django and ha

Haha, I know. Our little guy has had 34 wet diapers and one solid in the past week (:

Haha, good luck! Due in week may mean you get a baby tomorrow (: If you are becoming a new father , I very highly recommend The Expectant Father and The New Father. Really great books about what you and your partner will go through. It&#x2

Yeah, I really would have liked to make it an app with better handling of offline data and such. But I simply didn't have the setup or experience to approach it that way by the time I decided to start (I think a month or so before our

Haha, a year ago I probably would have agreed that this seems a bit ridiculous. But after months of reading about caring for newborns and raising children, it became abundantly clear to me that data like this can be useful. After about a mo

Good luck! Let me know if you give it a try, and if you think of anything that could be added/improved. Having the data has been so incredibly help for me and my wife.

Haha, shit. That's unfortunate in the screenshot. Just a symptom of the fake data generation. The app does keep track of breast feeding duration as well, but so far we (my wife and I) haven't done much with that data so it's

This is a pretty cool idea! Currently the app only has a minimal (Django REST) API, but expanding it to those sorts of functions would be really neat.

by cdubzzz 9y ago
We were worried about this too, but in practice it hasn't been an issue. I think perhaps if it were just me or just my wife, it would be a little tougher. But the current flow will sometimes go: wife starts feeding baby, I start a

Hey, Baby Buddy developer here - Glow was one of the ones we checked out and liked. Ultimately I think there are some perfectly good apps and websites out there, I was just a little anxious about the data privacy aspect. Maybe I'm bein

I contributed to a similar project[0] for the 2016 7DRL[1]. It was a lot of fun to build but ultimately I just wanted to play the game manually. Someone who tried it back when we released actually wrote a script to control the game turn-by-

I’ll be more direct - yes. I would absolutely support banning any person, regardless of station, from the platform for violating its rules. Trump would still be the president without Twitter, we’re not talking about impeachment here.

So I decided to test this out on a 1CPU/512M DO droplet, just for fun. I did indeed hit OOM during the setup (`bundle install` and `yarn` steps). After the first one I added a 1G swap and made it all the way through the 1.6.1 install (

I’m sure I can dig this up at some point, but just in case anyone knows off hand - can a single user instance run well enough on a small (1 cpu, 512mb ram) VPS running a few other lightweight services?

I've recently been through a number of these damn things and have found SmartRecruiters[0] to be pretty solid. Clean UI and easy application flow. The companies using it have been good about actually responding to applications as well,
