A simple web app that generates scenarios for practicing spoken languages. Read a news article and then chat about it with AI. https://fluenly.ai/

I'll say as long as you’re not repeating the same mistakes and each project teaches you something, you’re getting closer to the exit of the maze.

The only time I paid was for Excel or Wordpress plugins and it would have been a one time payment.

Some people can work long hours and never experience burnout because they love what they do, while others simply need a better work-life balance. A 4-day workweek is what brings that work-life balance. For anyone interested, here are 200 companies hiring for 4-day weeks - https://okjob.io/companies/
(P.S. I maintain the page. If you know of any company operating on a 4-day week (4x8hrs), please consider submitting it via the contact form)

This is so useful when buying a house in the country that sun is as valuable as gold and you want to maximise it in the backyard. Great tool.

Companies are adopting the 4 day work week, but the numbers are still super small, even in tech industry that are most open to these type of experiments. Nevertheless it's happening and it's a movement with a lot of supporters around the world. For anyone interested here is a directory of 200 4-day week companies I work on: https://okjob.io/companies/
New company submissions are very welcome.

There is a small trend among private companies, specifically in the tech sector, in moving to a 4 day week (the real 4 day week, 4x8hrs schedule) as they recognize the benefits for both sides, especially around retained productivity and better well-being, which then translates to better talent retention.
Advocates such as 4 Day Week Global consult companies on this topic and coordinate trials for them to test the waters or share results of surveys (available online) done with companies that already undertook such a trial. I've been watching this space for some time now and it's all definitely worth the attention.
Btw. I list 4 day week companies https://okjob.io/companies/ so if you know any business operating shorter weeks let me know.

A four-day workweek across all sectors is still years away; however, a good few private companies, especially those in the tech industry, have adopted it. Here are 169 companies (https://okjob.io/companies/) that have implemented short workweeks for those who are interested. The USA and the UK are the leading countries with 4 day week companies(P.S. I manage the site.)

From the report's summary:
61 organizations participated. A year after the pilot, 54 of these organizations continue to implement the 4 day workweek. Among these, 31 organizations have decided to make the 4 day workweek a permanent arrangement. This means 89% of the participating organizations have continued with the policy in some form, and within this group, 51% have committed to the policy permanently.
