We have VIP visiting town. Air Force 2 landed nearby overnight. The local Reddit discussion has been chuckle-inducing.
Screenshotted portion of comment thread from Reddit. The first comment reads: “Yep. Seabird hotel is swarmed by cops and other agents. He was 100% right A reply to the first comment reads: “I’m at the Seabird now and can confirm all the couches are wrapped in plastic.”

Living room at the new pad is coming together now that the couch and recliner have been moved in from my old place.
Photo of a living room with recliner, loveseat and coffee table. There is a dimmed floor lamp between the recliner and the 6-foot-tall bookcases in the corner, and a bowling pin atop one of the bookcases.

Kudos the the ADA for including Open Source AID solutions in the 2025 Standards of Care. Open-source solutions have consistently been 3-5 years ahead of comparable offerings from commercial entities, & provide superior results for many patients. #WeAreNotWaiting

Relevant recommendation: Open-Source Automated Insulin Dosing Recommendation 7.29 Support and provide diabetes management advice to people with diabetes who choose to use an open-source closed-loop system. Screenshot from the 2025 ADA Standards of Care in Diabetes summarizing the evidence supporting the use of open-source AID systems/algorithms.

CIQ is at least tunable- it just works with the settings you give it. I know there’s work ongoing w/regard to settings optimization.

That aside, they’re all model-predictive controllers, & the model they rely on isn’t right.

I’m going on 2 yrs w/o bolusing (& this is a bad 90 days for me)
Photo of a 90-day glucose summary from the Dexcom G7 app. It shows 84% Time In Range with only ~1% time below range, and 14% above range. Average glucose of 141 mg/dL and a GMI of 6.7%.

They saw an effect when it was from low calorie-density foods, but not with dietary supplements. I doubt it’s actually the Vitamin C. It’s just correlated with a healthier diet.
Screenshot from the article under discussion. Text reads: “Stratified by the source of vitamin C, high vs low I take from fruits and vegetables was associated with lower risk for metabolic syndrome. Conversely, meat, cereal, and supplemental sources of vitamin C did not affect metabolic syndrome risk.

This finding from the #T2D #Omnipod5 study has been tickling the back of my brain since I saw it. I finally figured out why. It supports the idea that for many (most?) people with T2 #diabetes, earlier initiation of bolus insulin will reduce overall insulin needs. The OP5 algorithm aims for a…
Screenshot of a press release from Insulet announcing topline results from their study of Omnipod 5 in Type 2 diabetes. The text reads, “Additional outcomes analysis showed that the amount of insulin used was reduced from an average of 0.80 U/kg/day during standard therapy to 0.57 U/kg/day during AID. This corresponds to an average decrease of 23 U/day.”

Why do #GLP-1 meds work for people with #T1D? It’s because of the part underlined in red. That’s actually the important part. We’ve been focusing on the insulin, which is (IMO) a more minor effect.

Screenshot of a paper from the Journal of Clinical Investigation from 1994. The title is “Glucagon-like peptide 1 enhances glucose tolerance both by stimulation of insulin release and by increasing insulin-independent glucose disposal.” “stimulation of insulin release” is underlined in blue. “Increasing insulin-independent glucose disposal” is underlined in red.
