Site loaded almost instantly for me. Paging through some catalogs was very fluid also.

Hire people to stand at the entrance with a hand-counter (one for entry, one for exit). Have them jot down the count every half hour. Cheap, easy, foolproof.

I miss everything not being monetized.

I miss not being online 24/7.

Rejoice! For you have learned a valuable lesson!

Next time, first look how well the competition is doing before coding up the same thing.

As for why vertical tabs are not popular: for me it's because it is annoyingly similar, and right next to, the navigation pane of the website I'm looking at. This leads to clicks on the wrong "navigation pane".

There where even mail-to-ftp gateways. I vaguely remember using bitftp (?) to get a copy of the Utah Raster Toolkit that way. Long time ago...

If the cost is lower than the value provided, yes, of course I'll pay!

Don't tell us, show us the value of your project!

Show how it would work in practice, show how it is better than normal Jira search. Show why I should use your project instead of the many, many others?

You posted this two days ago already.

I don't use it. Somehow I'm constantly checking how much time remains. Can't get into the flow. And if I do get into any kind of flow state, the last thing I want is to get interrupted by a timer.

I think it might work great for physical work. Remembering to stretch or take a break. But, for me, not for any type of brainy work.

This mandatory harvesting of personal information is atrocious. Inevitably these personal email addresses get stolen, leaked or just sold to everyone that wants it. The user get a deluge of spam and/or targeted scams. Just let the user enter a one-time email if they wish. There is a reason they don't want to give out their 'real' address.

You're part of the problem of the modern internet.

I'd suggest connecting all your gear with the appropriate cables. Any left over cables can go to the recycling center. You're never going to need them.

Action items from the retro should be user stories for the next sprint!

For work I use a calendar (Outlook) as a todo list. A task gets added to a date and time in the future so I know I can't forget it. When the day comes, I either do the thing, or I postpone it to a later date. For clarity: I don't use the taskplanner, but add tasks as appointments in the calendar.

This solves, for me, the problem of picking the 'right' thing to do from my list. I just do the things for that day. Be flexible, when you have extra time you can pull things closer, when it's balls to the wall, just shift some tasks to a later date.

I've been doing this for about 25 years, it works for me, might work for others too.

edit: I don't do notes, as such. Never felt the need to write something down that I won't ever look at again anyway.
