  • For me, I have a mental knapsack full of philosophical approaches.

    A situations scope, impact, and effect may demand a different philosophical framework to meet my or the groups goals.

    There are some ideologies I won’t touch or entertain. There are some I can only accept under very specific terms and timelines. I have my favorites and more that I’m friendly with.

    So ya, a sort of meta-utlitarianism!






  • I used Fitbook on fdroid for a bit. The best feature was support for weighing food to get calories.

    My biggest frustration with apps today is the lack of support for home cooking. I cook most all food but it is a pain get nutritional information unless it comes from a box.

    Ive been trying to find a tool that will let me dump in all ingredients by volume/weight so I know the caloric value of a meal. CooksIllustrated uses this https://api.edamam.com/ but I can’t find an easy way to bring dishes from magazines or cookbooks to it

    As an example, if I was an ethnographer working to document rural cooking techniques on the Isle of Skye I might work with this group to stand up a public instance of mealie. Success would depend on the project being a collective work though. Me working with the collectives to meet the challenges of the project over a loosely defined set of time.

    I think the above could be a big success. On the opposite side, I would not count on the collective to host and maintain my personal tech stack. Maybe I’d pay them to advise, but little more
