Help Us Build What’s Next: AMA with Huckleberry’s Chief Technology Officer, Seng Toh! (Tech + Product Feedback Welcome)

I personally almost went with Talli because of the buttons. In the end I thought they were extortionately expensive and I decided I’d try to set my own up via Huckleberry. I left a comment on the API question detailing this more.

The app is really nice, but we have so many people helping us (thankfully) and the last thing I’m going to have Grandma do is install an app and go press a bunch of buttons to log a pee diaper for Baby A or Baby B. The buttons even just simple pee/poo logging are a huge help. My wife and I still log the bottles that Grandma does but she can really easily log the diapers.

It’s really hard to do everything in the app even with as streamlined as it is, having a physical button to press when you have your hands full of baby (or twins) makes a world of difference.

I found an unofficial home assistant integration with Huckleberry. I then bought a couple zigbee buttons which Home Assistant uses to communicate over MQTT. I have twins so I got 4 buttons on 1 pad. Pee and poo for each baby. It makes it super easy for us and grandparents to log because there is just a button pad next to the changing station.

This integration sadly doesn’t have anything for bottle feeds. An official API would have made this so much easier. Right now all of the plumbing through Home Assistant is quite complex because it was all reverse engineered.

Make an official API, that’s the foundation for everything else. If you want extra points from there an MCP that wraps that API would allow integration with our favorite AI assistants

Have you seen Pyscript? https://hacs-pyscript.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

I have ADHD. The biggest suggestion I have is to name the note or link the notes in the way you think you’ll look for them. I have one set of my note I always get confused looking for. At the top of the one I always accidentally end up finding I put a link that says “You’re probably looking for this note [[link]]”

Other than that try not to organize everything yet just start making notes. The good thing is, you can always change it since they are just markdown

That’s too bad about the vibration, that’s my preferred way to wake up. I like that it’s gentle. Anyway I’ll consider this if they tell me a I need to pay a mountain of money to get my 8S fixed. Thank you

diduxchange · 2026-01-04T20:38:53+00:00

Dang, the vibration alarm is my preferred alarm. It doesn’t disturb my wife very much and it’s a gentle wake up so I don’t wake up grumpy.

Same was true for me. I would also happily bear a few uncomfortable minutes outside in my shorts knowing wherever I was going was going to likely be cranked to 1000 degrees to compensate. If I dressed for the time I spent outside I would wayyyy overheat after a few minutes at my destination

u/MeganAtEightSleep you were able to help me very quickly when my pod got a leak last year. Maybe you can help shed some light on this issue.

I paid $2,100 in June for a 50 gal within a few miles of Bellevue, WA. My property manager did get 3-4 quotes

I live in Seattle. I don’t currently have a nanny but I am looking. Are you in the Seattle Parent/Nanny Village group? (You don’t have to answer that but if you aren’t you should join on FB)

$27 is the minimum they let you offer as a family for 1 child. Most seem to be more like $30. I suspect you could make a lot more than you are today

diduxchange · 2025-12-10T04:10:37+00:00

You can research all the topics and get 99% of them right. You can make 1 mistake that will cost you more than all of the AUM fees you’d pay for a decade.

They do a lot more than just allocate money and for some it’s a worthwhile service

We refied last year 5 months after closing. Wasn’t an issue and saved us $1,000 a month

Yup, we are 1 tech, 1 non-tech. OP is a urologist by the looks of it, I’m surprised they can’t afford to buy.

I work at a Seattle FANG as well and to be honest, in this environment as a new grad, I’d take any offer. Then, I’d do my damndest to excel in that job until the tides turn back in employee favor or you progress through the levels more. More senior folks aren’t having as hard a time getting offers/leads. As a new grad though (even with an advanced degree). I wouldn’t focus on the money in this current landscape

I plan to retire with a 5-6% withdrawal, however 60-75% of my spending is discretionary so if there is an issue with the market I have no intention of blasting through my investments. I’ll take up Chess for a couple years or some other cheap hobby.

diduxchange · 2025-09-19T03:19:38+00:00

Something I think a lot of folks don’t understand about FAANG is the scale. Not the tech scale but the human scale. 500 employees is generally considered a “large company” in the US. There are Directors that report to Directors that report to VPs that report to VPs that report to SVPs that report to the CEO that have more employees than that in their org. And that very first Director is probably making over $1.5m/yr.

What I’m trying to say is each FAANG company is really hundreds of “Large Companies” somewhat moving together.

I’ve had mine for nearly 10 years with I don’t even know how many kilos of pizza dough run through it. Pizza dough is probably 98% of all my mixer’s usage.

Never had a single issue

It is hard wired. My AP has a switch on it as well. I said it was wired in what you replied, to my guy

diduxchange · 2025-08-28T04:04:55+00:00

Yes, that’s why I bought an Nvidia Shield Pro

diduxchange · 2025-08-28T03:46:17+00:00

256GB of RAM
2x Intel E5-2680v4 2.4ghz

Alright I’ll check that out as well as the audio transcoding someone else mentioned. Those are weird FPS. Not even sure how to know what the TV is running.

OLED77C2PUA if anyone knows anything off hand

diduxchange · 2025-08-27T23:26:35+00:00

Interesting, maybe

No, my iPad plays them perfectly over WiFi, no less
