   I created three throwaway android apps in an afternoon to test my code. (All fairly well written) In software it is now possible to test ideas instantly, this is great for people like me that have so many ideas.

   I am surprised that not more people talk about this, I once had an ssh key deleted, so unexpected it took me a while to debug. We live and learn. Still a huge fan though.

    I would be very interested for as many people as possible to test this and give feedback. Particularly testing with different postures, hands, walking, different sensors etc. Very simple to setup and does not require expensive hardware.

    AWS is not value for money, I do have a DO account that is great but my development is mostly hosted locally with tunnels from cloudflare, it is remarkable how far you (I) can get with that setup.

    I suspect that you used highly optimized algorithms written for python, like the vector algorithms in numpy? You will struggle to write better code, at least I would.

    I have certification in Lotus Notes, I quite liked it. Fairly simple to create an application but not being open source was a problem.

    I immediately thought of the old crystal radios and a short search brought up this comparison. While old radios used a natural mineral (galena) to detect radio waves, modern Rydberg radio receivers use a synthetic photonic crystal (often ma
