It's funny how a 1 degree rotation creates a new vibe.

I use notion as my "inbox stuff". Whenever I see something interesting (book, article, whatever), I use the chrome extension and send it to that inbox. On the phone, I can also "share to notion" which sends it to that inbox. Once in a while, I review that inbox and then prioritize things in other notion pages or in more actionable items.

It works pretty well. The only big issue is how slow it is to cold start. My fix is to use google keep on mobile for very quick note (I.e. someone tells me something), and then I'll manually copy it to inbox later in the day.

> self-host git over ssh more reliably than github.

Host where? That host may be down. If it's local, then you run into other problems trying to access it remotely.

Still, I find github to be down quite a lot lately which is concerning. It doesn't stop me from working, I just can't review PRs and get changes.. but I would be more worried if I were using github actions stopping me from releasing a hotfix.

I strongly recommend "A Practical Guide to Linux Commands, Editors, and Shell Programming". It's a great overview of many things linux & command line. Very approachable for beginners and more than good enough to make them dangerous.

And just as a curiosity, were you taking nap? What about the weekend?

I'm curious as I have a few friends with a similar problem (I.e. struggling to wake up early for work). But they often party hard the week-end and wake up between 11am-3pm, so it's hard to tell if that's the reason it's so hard for them.

You say "You've followed every advice", but what were you trying to achieve exactly? Is it that you can't fall asleep or that you're not productive in the morning, or something else?

Personally what worked best for me is just to wake up at 6am for 2 weeks without nap during the day.

Most people try to adjust their sleeping time to match their waking time, but they've got it backward. Set your wake up time and listen to your body for when it's sleepy, then go to sleep and wake up at the same time the following day.

The "have a kid" is just a way to force this behavior because they will wake up early every day over a long period of time.

Would be great to have that insight on the landing page. Most people (including me) will first make a judgement call looking at the landing page for a few seconds before deciding if they want to learn more and go through the specs & examples.

Interesting article thanks. Maybe add a link to the previous article in the "Blog Series" like it does in part 1.

I'd just say I worked on personal projects for a year to learn new libraries/languages/frameworks.

What about both though? Or something similar but different, what is better between talking to users or looking at data points? What about both?

Such a great landing page, clear examples and documentation. Good job!

By the way, there seems to be a css bug in the FAQ/quote section (The text shows dark grey on a dark grey background)

> market (or technology) pivots into the startup

I think Apple, Google, Twitch & Uber (I don't know enough of the others) were clearly building the right thing for an early market.. I wouldn't say the market "switched to them", it just became more mainstream.
