Heh, my personal blog has exactly the same thing for a while. I always wondered if I died would a reader know before anybody IRL would?

I just started thinking about that yesterday, but I don't have many readers yet. My wife would definitely notice, though!

Woo, I'm not alone :) How did you go about implementing it? Was it live in real-time or delayed by a day like mine, and why did you decide to eventually remove it?

A fun idea. I've been playing with all sorts of ideas for static websites and trying to figure out ways to make them feel more "live".

I was wondering about the heartbeat updates and replaying the data in "real-time" the next day is a really nice touch and allows a single deployment a day.

Thanks! Curious what other ways to make them feel more "live" you've thought of already.

The 24h replay started as a constraint and turned into the design. Anything closer to live means a server holding a websocket open and my watch draining its battery to feed it. My homepage is markdown and a GitHub Action, and I wanted to keep it that way.

I know it's based on the author's pulse.. it'd be fun to base it on the host!

Being hammered by HN would quicken that pulse a bit ;)

Watching the hug of death would be fun lol

Looove your kitten... How could I make one? I'm basically asking permission before I go raid your elements (inspect site)

TIL the term "streetlifting"

punk_ihaq a day ago | parent [-]

Streetlifting is an emerging strength sport that combines calisthenics and powerlifting. Athletes compete in weight classes by testing their one- rep maxes across up to four primary movements: weighted muscle-ups, pull-ups (or chin-ups), dips, and barbell squats.

Right now the HR is showing 48 bpm, so this has the fun side effect of demonstrating that the author is in pretty good shape.

Thanks! I've been working out regularly for the past three years and eating clean and have noticed a steady decline in my rhr from the high 70s to the mid 40s now.
