For me it's less about the tools I use, and more about building health habits (or reducing the bad habits). I use ScreenZen to enforce limited short session for a short list of harmful apps and websites (socials & news), and I configured it to allow a few 5-min-long sessions per day. The short sessions being cut in the middle help me stay informed but break the addictive nature of socials/news. I also use Android's Digital Wellbeing with Bedtime Mode (like Do Not Disturb) and Focus Mode (pause apps and notifications for almost all apps at night). Also uninstalled specific apps (e.g. Facebook) and using the mobile web version, which has subpar experience, which also helps in making it less addictive.

I see a lot of builders (myself included) falling into the trap of focusing on the wrong things. Development velocity doesn't matter per se, what matters are things like growth in profit or traction. It's really easy to conflate automation/systems/process with actual business results. Movement ≠ Progress.

I have a product that writes AI-written nonfiction books. I expected more thinking to help, but Sonnet 5 on high effort wrote the weakest prose of any setting (scored by my own blind reads + different LLM judge), and it was slower and more expensive too with some chapters running out of tokens mid-sentence. I agree that the voice is hard to edit out afterward - in my tests, which model & settings I picked changed it more than prompting/instruction.

Thanks.

Interesting about the handwriting - I very rarely handwrite anything anymore, but maybe I should do it ocassionally.

Typically when I type something digitally, I forget about it pretty quickly.

I may try it for some product/architectural stuff where recall is more important.

Interesting.

Say you're looking for something from a few days ago, you grep all recent text files to find the relevant note?

How does it work with a physical notebook, though? I guess that's harder to grep

Uh nice, I never heard of logseq, it look really nice!

How do you use OneNote for work though, isn't it slow? (not a user, but I assumed it'll be something similar to Google Keep)

Thanks!

Hit me up if you have any questions

Well, it started off this way, but I went through several iterations with the audit prompt and the system prompt to improve the issue detection, the solutions suggested, tag them, reduce hallucinations, provide approximate image coordinates, provide examples to the model, etc. It's currently at over 20 lines of prompting and I guess this will grow over time.

Thanks for being one of our early adopters!

Glad to hear it did find something that you can correct.

Regarding the points about fine print (and the screenshot not loaded correctly) - would you kindly reply with the URL of the website you audited here, or email it to me to feedback at flawless.is ?

I'd love to take a look and see if these issues could be fixed or improved.

Of course, thank you for the kind words!

Yeah, happy to get it roasted by real (human) UX folks for some sanity check.
