check mark upgrades

The checkmark is still nice and evocative and just some subtle visual distinction (brighter, filled in, glowy) for full daily amount done would be a simple pareto improvement.

Yeah, having that would be awesome - especially if that checkmark type also came through the API I’ve been tinkering with an upgraded version of CLI for beeminder (think bmndr, but 2020) and it’d be lovely not to have to calculate that myself from existing datapoints.

@dreev

Another idea: show an epsilon if you’ve entered any data and a delta if you’ve entered your daily rate’s worth.

I’m pretty sure there’s a limit joke in here somewhere… It’s definitely a neat idea!

Related quasi-bug-report:

I loved the idea of a checkmark for “did at least my daily rate today”. Most of my goals are automated with other services. So, I always get a checkmark even if I didn’t do anything. Right now I have a checkmark for drinking 0 cups of water (from Fitbit) and for knitting for 0 hours (from RescueTime). The only use for me for check marks as is today is to tell me that my integrations have not broken down, but they don’t actually tell me if I did something or not.

Ie, datapoints of zero (as is common from autodata) maybe shouldn’t yield a checkmark. Or maybe anti-magic says they should?

Exactly what I reported in Checkmarks for Toggl goals !
