Thanks for clarifying. I can see what you’re going for and why the iOS functionality isn’t enough. Some feedback that comes to my mind: I imagine that there are three personas - 1. one who wants others’ phones to be silent 2. one who wants

I apologise if I’m missing something, but isn’t this already achievable with a location-based Shortcut?

I downloaded and I love the concept and the design. I’ll be watching closely and sharing this with my friends! Could use a tiny bit of that final 5% of finishing touches but I love it anyway. Also, I appreciate how good of a first-class iOS

I’m inclined to agree. There is an underlying (mostly unquestioned) assumption that surely there must be something actionable to learn from the articulation of the history of other companies. But… maybe not? Just because we can clump a bunc

The issue isn’t with the approach. The issue is with the limitations of language. I did a vipassana course a few years ago and have been meditating semi-regularly ever since. I’ve been through a few difficult times with my family since then

I concur! Once you know the rules, you can break them. I believe that jazz hits the most fundamental bits of music. Pure feel. And when someone “breaks” the rules but preserves the “feel”, it’s magic. It proves to me that there is something

I’ve seen J Krishnamurti say this so many times. I’ve seen so many neo-Advaita teachers say similar things. Yet, I believe I am barely at the edges of understanding what this means. If you would kindly share your understanding of this phras

Oh wow, this is a thing? It happened to me. - unassigned from a team - report to no one - no real work to do - got frustrated and quit I didn’t stick around till appraisals. I shudder to think what might have happened if I did. No one was l

It seems to fit the definition of a PIP. If you’ve defined that every PIP must be a bad faith one, and this is not one of them, it doesn’t stop it from being a PIP.

It sounds like you have figured out a way to get what you want materially. It seems to be working well for you. However, like the other commenter pointed out, it does seem like a transactional way to view things. It sounds like such a view

People disagree with one another and have different views on the world? What a shocker.

Yes, I think we are agreeing in different words. Words are a funny thing, no?

> because with meditation there's intent. It's actively calming yourself down. This really is the Silicon Valley definition of “meditation”. Not what it’s meant to be. True meditation seems to fit the definition of “niksen” per

On a side note, what ever happened to V For Wiki?! I used to use it every day and one day it just stopped working. Looked it up on the App Store and found that it was missing. I was heartbroken :(

It feels to me like the author compiled a list of 10 things that annoyed them the week prior, gave each of them an important sounding name and made an article of it. Not that I support any of these patterns, but there’s a reason companies d

This seems relevant to me. I also identify as a person who “loves learning new things”. Playing an instrument was a hobby I used to pursue with passion. Now it seems like it’s running its course and I’m not feeling as passionate about it as

I’ve been for a 10 day Goenka retreat and did not experience anything psychedelic. However I did experience much calmness and continue to practice the techniques to this day. They have changed my life and made me a much more patient, kind,

It is at least a beginning. When someone is learning something new, they will naturally take some time to be good at it. They are merely expressing their awareness that the ego is something that is the root of their suffering. For now, they

Why the ad hominem? Refute what they’ve put forward instead of trying to judge the person.
