Feature request: meta mind Beeminder load internally?

I saw that the load metric has been added to the API, which is great, thank you!

Wondering if this could be added as a meta-minding option when creating a goal? That way it could be updated whenever it changes.

The way I’m currently doing it is via my own script which only runs once an hour.

Any news on this? I just discovered the Urgency Load in the “statistics” view today (even though it’s been public for a few years apparently).

This was also the type of thing I was looking for when I first tried to set up a beeminder integration. I was originally guessing based on trolling through the forums that maybe there wasn’t a settled good example of something to track.

Is Total Buffer a better metric than Urgency Load?

Is my best option to set up a cron job or invest in learning Make or val.town ? An internal meta integration would be really helpful

@serenequeen That really just depends on your preference, I think. None of the options you listed are going to be substantially less or more complicated once you’ve set it up.
