1. Write a watcher that periodically reports whether you’re actively using a coding-related app (Terminal, VS Code, etc.) to a server you control, and serve a “coding”/“not coding” badge on your profile page; (could even detect which project you’re working on, and display that;)
2. Write an Apple Watch app that periodically reports whether you’re asleep, and serve a “sleeping”/“awake”/“unknown” badge on your profile page.

It really threw people in a loop as nobody had developed anything similar ;)
