First Principals - Dentropy Daemon

Brainstorming

Elon always says to solve problems from first principals. What is the most simple piece of information I should be logging before trying to create a meta social media platform? Keystrokes.

Syncing quantified self data

A shared folder across systems can be used to consolodate logged data across sytems. A series of python scripts managed useing cron and service files will gather the data and store it in the synced folder. Seperate files for each computer can be generated using a computers hostname. The directory of the synced file folder can be stored as an environment variable. snda;slknd;alskn
