Neato. I’m building my own as well but not as a therapist (I pay humans for that, which is what I recommend. Pay for a pro) My approach is more how can I make a todo list app that’s not pushing hustle but also not ignorable.

Curiosity is the first step, so you’re doing great. “Say what you mean” by Oren Jay Sofer changed my life. Learning to actually, well, say what I was trying to say, to be facetious. It was mind blowing to realise I was actually sending out

Seconded. #4 Prioritises the dark pattern of hiding the "Skip" button in an "Add friends" nudge page of an onboarding process. No thanks.

I installed a heat exchange between my shower drain and the water heater inlet. Still need to do some calculations but the heat recovery is dramatic. I’m using a metal wafer pool heat exchange and a boost pump for pressure on the outgoing s

I get a ton of spam on my Amazon email. I assume this is via some sellers getting it as part of the return process. I just rotate the mail every six month and drop the old ones into a auto delete rule. Another is the mail used in domain re

China isn’t a single thing… treating it as such creates a tribalistic atmosphere that’s good for no-one at all…
