I'm sorry to hear about your family's health and relationship issues. I would be interested in hearing more about your audio projects. Your health research sounds like it could be very beneficial to society--please keep pushing forward there. Anything that can help reduce the cycle time on new research has to be valuable.

Am I the only one that dislikes phone apps?! For example, I do NOT want to install an app for my power company. Just text/email me if you need to reach me and I can do anything else through their website.
I do support apps that support unique phone features: Phone, camera, GPS, etc.

The driver quality (mainly around display and sleep/resume features) has been terrible on my now 2 year old AMD powered Lenovo P14S. I've been using Lenovo laptops since 2001 and this one may push me to another brand for my next purchase. My issues have been seemingly slowly getting better with software updates but it's still really tarnishing the brand reputation/experience for me.

I'm likely heading for the same destination as we're building a new house in a rural area that has limited Internet options. If you're open to it, I would love to join any meetings that you may have regarding building out a new WISP. I do have one wireless bridge live now that was my proof of concept.

Can it be scaled up and done in reverse to create a point source of coherent audio from multiple speaker components covering different frequency ranges?

I've been self-hosting Nextcloud for calendar and file sharing for a few years now. I use DAVx5 on my Android device and my wife's iphone syncs out of the box. It's been a very solid solution for us and isn't that difficult to get up and running.

https://store.yujiintl.com/ has broad spectrum LEDs/lamps/fake skylights that may also appeal to others interested in the OP--just noticed Yuji was mentioned in OP. I'm not affiliated with Yuji but have ordered some of their products and been very happy with their performance.

Yes, I haven't used this myself yet but I have been keeping my eye on this project for a while now, https://erpnext.com/ The Frappe framework that is the foundation of ERP Next can be used to extend the ERP platform or build standalone apps.

Re:Ask HN: Are height adjustable desks worth it?

I have the predecessor to the Uplift4 and have owned it for 7 or 8 years now. https://www.upliftdesk.com/uplift-4-leg-standing-desk-v2-v2-...
It has been a very good purchase for me--I stand for at least 2-3 sessions during the work day and find it very helpful.
This particular unit has very little wobble and is extremely strong. Zero regrets and I highly recommend it. If you're doing any consulting/contracting this should be a tax deductible purchase.

Primarily looking for additional consulting work but may consider an exceptional full-time remote role.We have been using a self-hosted Windmill instance for running batch processes in Production for a while now.
