I was wondering if I could make my Echo Dot chime like a clock. Turns out it can't, so I wrote a script to do it on my Mac instead. In the process I learned about Westminster quarters, MIDI, and launchd.
It's not perfect but it's kind of fun to mark the passage of time. I might spend some more time improving it (override volume/output device, restrict to certain hours, control interaction with other audio, etc.).
