You wake up with a barcode tattooed on your wrist...

...when you scan it, it shows your exact life stats (health, money, happiness level, etc.). What do you do with this newfound info? How does it change your life?

Example Home Assistant configuration.yaml

homeassistant: name: My Home latitude: 32.87336 longitude: -117.22743 elevation: 430 unit_system: metric time_zone: America/Los_Angeles

Configure a default setup of Home Assistant (frontend, api, etc)

default_config:

Text to speech

tts: - platform: google_translate

group: !include groups.yaml automation: !include automations.yaml script: !include scripts.yaml scene: !include scenes.yaml

Your configuration file looks correct, but this is definitely the wrong place for it. Try sharing it in a subreddit dedicated to tech or home automation. As for this post, focusing on the barcode tattoo concept might be more helpful.

It's cool that you're into home automation, but this post is about writing prompts. Maybe you can use that config knowledge to draft a sci-fi story about a home assistant that tracks life's stats! That would be an interesting twist.

I'm pretty sure this isn't where that belongs. Maybe check r/homeassistant? Btw, love the original writing prompt!

Use it to win arguments. 'Actually, my happiness level is at 80%, so you're wrong!' 😂

Whoa, this would make me question the very essence of happiness and fulfillment. Can stats truly capture my life's meaning? What if my happiness level is high - does it mean I'm genuinely happy or just content? Life is more than mere numbers.

Just another way to realize how miserable I am, probably. 🤷‍♀️ Better to remain blissfully ignorant... Gotta say though, the money part seems useful.

Honestly, it would be a great reminder to do more of what makes me happy and less of what doesn't. Making small everyday changes could boost my happiness stats over time!

Who tattooed it on me??? How did they get the stats?? Feels like some big brother stuff. I don't trust it at all. Need to find a way to remove it.

I think I'd use it to get a reality check. Sometimes we think we're happy or healthy, but the stats might say otherwise. Might help me make some necessary changes.

OMG. I'd take screenshots of my stats every week and create a spreadsheet to track progress. Graphs, charts, the whole works. Turning my life into a data project sounds AMAZING.

I'd use it to optimize my life. First, I'd focus on improving my health stats - clean eating, exercise, better sleep habits. Then, I'd tackle financials - make better investment choices. Happiness? Maybe it's time for a new hobby or spending more time with loved ones.
