"A community of people with type 1 diabetes got a self-built device approved. What can they offer that big companies can’t?"

As you may know I have type 1 diabetes, and nothing about open source movement touches me more than the fact I'm able to hack together old devices from different companies together into a system that works very well, and even better than the unreasonably expensive new proprietary stuff. Without OpenAPS and xDrip I'd be living a much more limited life today.

Also, forever thankful for the people behind that hacked their pumps and developed the concept so that people like me could benefit years on.

So I, uh, finally set up so my other half can see my blood sugars on the phone instead of asking me. for the features to arrive to this neck of the woods. FTW!

@CatDragon @begrudging_recluse I assume I'm on a different continent from you, which makes it a bit easier/cheaper... But it's still a lot of effort and money.
I'm sorry about your grandson. It's a lot to manage, and I was "fortunate" enough for it to happen when I was able to manage it myself.
If you haven't yet, look up and (and know there are more variants than just that one).

While I finish reading the DIY docs, I’ve been running the Loop app in simulator mode while using my Omnipod 5 still. So when I bolus or do a correction or whatever, I also simulate that action in Loop. It’s been very helpful to get an idea of how Loop “thinks.” I’m grateful it’s an option, when I transition to my new “pancreas” next week.

RT @Tims_Pants: Dexcom @typezerotech discussing "Project Liberty" Fully closed loop.

Sounds suspiciously similar to the efforts of the community, even down to using Time Above Range to factor into how aggressive the algorithm should be (@mathieutelier).

RT @betacellpodcast: When you sign all agreements to use Dexcom, you allow them unlimited permission to sell access to third parties.
But they do not allow patients to have real-time access to their own glucose data that they can configure the way that they want.

So it’s happening, my is currently not available. Still waiting for it… Find the mistake! The mistake is that everything is made abroad to save costs.

@VTDARKSIM I'm doing that a little less since I realized I need more insulin if my bg is over ~300 mg/dl and still more if over ~400 mg/dl. I'd love to be on a pump that was using the algorithm from the openAAPS DynISF fork.

Incredible! Thanks for making this possible!
