jtempletonon Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (April 2026)

Building Atlas, a recovery analytics platform for athletes.

The core frustration: Apple Watch collects HRV, sleep stages, respiratory rate, blood oxygen, resting HR. Apple does basically nothing useful with any of it. You get ring animations and step counts.

Atlas pulls all of that together and turns it into two scores: recovery and training readiness. The point is to actually use the signal your sensors are already collecting and ensure when you train, it matters. It’s like Whoop, but actually works.

iOS app is live (finally!). Happy to talk shop.

jtempletonon The complete guide to iOS and macOS development in Neovim

I've experimented with Neovim a few times, adding all sorts of plugins to make it work like VSCode or a Jetbrains IDE. But honestly, I just can't seem to get it to run as smoothly or feel as good as those IDEs.

It’s something to do with one of the LSPs that bogs it down and makes the experience untenable

jtempletonon ECMAScript 2015 Approved

FYI, ECMAScript 2015 is also known as ES6.

jtempletonon Steve Blank's Lean Launchpad & Chuck Eesley's Tech Entreprenur class cancelled

The class-central.com page is now saying that all coursera classes are delayed indefinitely. This is very unfortunate because all these classes were of interest to me and my colleagues. It's rare that one can get this kind of insight in advanced topics.

jtempletonon Redcar: It's time for a Ruby editor (in Ruby) [video]

I love Eclipse. I get by with vim and gedit, but I prefer to have all the tools that Eclipse encompasses.

That being said, I have tried the dynamic languages plugin in Eclipse for Scala/Ruby/Python as well as PyDev and the performance is atrocious.

So if Redcar can be half as good as Eclipse, then I'm all for it.
