I've done something similar. I don't know if it counts as a "serious task" as OP is requesting, but it's super helpful for me. A few things: 1. Each week my son's school sends an "At A Glance" email w

At work I call this "letting the fires burn." This works well with children too! And probably beneficial for them. Their natural instinct is to ask for help. Many times I can't get there immediately and so they ultimately fi

I went digging through some old folders out of curiosity and I still have things I wrote in middle school and high school. (Not code, although I was starting with HTML at the time but that's lost to Geocities.) Anyway, a bit of an indi

Downtime / doing nothing is so crucial for letting your brain marinate over a problem or idea! Leave those gaps be. Option B: Have a side project or personal you're hacking on with Claude/Codex and pop back to the terminal to

This is cool! I love stuff like this, it's fun to use stuff like this to see the passage of time a little more clearly. Similar ideas: I've been keeping notes in Roam Research for nearly 6 years now. Whenever I'm writing note

Thanks for this list! A couple of questions I have: 1. Why not use supabase auth? I’m using it for a little project and generally like how much you get out of the box with supabase. Curious why you like stack auth. 3. Why 3 analytics tools?

Could you explain more about your metabase skill and how you use it? We use metabase (and generally love it) and I’m interested to hear about how other people are using it!

I have the same exact problem! I'm super impressed by people who can read books and memorize the details. And I tried really hard to do the same. So here's a different perspective on solving this problem: don't bother! I&#x27

This is an extremely helpful list, I’ve been looking to replace my Nest doorbell and would like something non-Google or Amazon. Do you happen to have similar list for thermostats? I’m using a Nest and would like to get that off Google as we

I personally prefer Gsuite + Slack. But I've been on that "stack" for 15 years (although I also still use excel). Hard to say if it's better, because someone coming from the 15 years in the Microsoft world may prefer tha

That acronym goes back to Usenet days and is really well understood, particularly in places like HN. It’s existed for 100 internet years prior to Reddit.

Yes! I do something similar. I tell people I don’t have a running habit. I have a getting out the door in the morning with my running shoes on habit. Whatever happens after that is a bonus. The goal is to just step outside in the morning re

I'd recommend Metabase, we've used it for years with no issue. Very simple to use and business users can easily get the hang of it and build and filter their own reports. While I'm at it, here's a killer Metabase feature

Actually, yes -- if you enabled Lost Mode. I have some experience with this situation directly. On the way home from a trip in December, I dropped an AirTag in the pocket my 3-year-old's stroller and forgot to attach it securely before

Interesting question! I just checked and, wow, I have 922 accounts in 1password. (From 10+ years of use.) It’s funny you bring this up because I’ve thought about “cleaning up” 1password before. But all the extra accounts are not really in m

We only have a couple of rooms where we have the Owl plus another microphone, and those are rooms that are a little bigger than what is suggested for the owl so having the wireless mics help. The owl pro seems to have been an improvement th

This is awesome. Excel is such a valuable tool for its ease in prototyping and testing calculations, but the "classic" challenge is when/how to operationalize it.

Louisiana has a similar program. If you have a 2.5 GPA and at least a 20 on the ACT, your in-state tuition is paid for (for the base award). You can also qualify for an additional stipend for having higher GPA/ACT scores. Myself and ma

Maybe it's because they have different goals? The Nigerian-mail-fraud-scammer needs to get the gullible person to respond. If that's 1 out of 100,000 people, they need to do what they can just to get that 1 to respond. If 100 out
