“In light of [Trump’s] recent attacks on federal funding for medical and scientific #research, it’s noteworthy that this #AppleHealth study is funded solely by Apple. But studies like this aren’t a viable substitute for government-sponsored research that’s less encumbered by corporate, financial, or ideological agendas.”

@andytiedye OMG I WONDER IF THIS IS WHY I GOT SIGNED UP FOR CARTERS.COM EMAIL LIST.

Sorry for shouting but I’ve been thinking about it for a few days now and I don’t know why I didn’t make the connection before.

Last week I got an email directly to me thanking me for signing up for carters.com blog and coupons. Those are baby clothes.

I haven’t had a period since September because I’m old, a couple months after the period tracker on my iPhone asked me if I was forgetting to log my period and I said no and I was sad because all the predictive days went away.

Last week it asked me again and I just closed it out. And that was right around 120 days after my last period started, so technically I would been four months long if I was pregnant.

IS THIS WHAT IS HAPPENING??

The only reason this doesn’t make sense to me is because I put my real birthday in my Apple ID years ago when I got my first iPod or whatever. It knows I am 51 years old. But the email address I used with my Apple ID is the email address that signed up for baby clothes emails.

Kleine Frage zur Apple Watch: Hört das iPhone auf selbst Schritte zu tracken, sobald eine Apple Watch im Spiel ist? Mit einer Garmin Watch zusammen tracken grade beide Geräte gleichzeitig. Das ist zwar schön um viele Schritte zu kriegen, aber macht mich hier grade etwas verrückt😂

Annoyingly, Apple Shortcuts doesn't have any integration with Health's medicine logging. Probably makes some sense - it's one of those things you always want to force to be manual - but they could at least let you use the manual entry of "I've taken X" as a trigger (eg "remind me in 2 hours to check that I'm not bleeding from the eyes after medicine X".)

Always forgetting to sync your weight with #hammerhead Dashboard?
Just turn on HammerHeart's #applehealth sync and you are done. When your smart scale enters a new value, it will automatically sync.

This leaves you with two simple steps:
1. Enable Health Sync
2. Step on your smart scale

As always: just send me a message if you own a Karoo (1/2/3) and an iPhone and want a TestFlight invite.
