  • ziply-dsl-monitor

    My DSL was severely broken...so I graphed it.

  • - Data to dashboards. I was recently having a problem with my DSL connection, so I built a dashboard that scraped data from my DSL modem, combined it with weather data and built a Grafana dashboard. https://github.com/dacort/ziply-dsl-monitor Will anybody find that useful? Probably not, but it's a pretty neat project and taught me a lot about Grafana.

  • cargo-crates

    An easy way to build data extractors in Docker.

  • - Extract data from system. I wear an Oura ring for sleep tracking. I wanted to do my own analysis of the data, so I built a system that could easily allow me to extract the data into S3 so I could query it. https://github.com/dacort/cargo-crates Will anybody find that useful? Maybe...but it's been a heck of a lot of fun and really pushed my Docker skills.

  • damons-data-lake

    All the code related to building my own data lake

  • Glad you found it helpful! And yes! I love quantified self type data. I did something similar a few years back where I gathered my inbox unread count, open Chrome and iTerm tab count, and even how many times I copy/pasted in a day and uploaded it all to S3 via Kinesis for a demo. It was a ton of fun - feel free to peek at it! https://github.com/dacort/damons-data-lake
