Very cool. Love the idea. Wish I'd thought of it as an option on my products: https://www.paced.email and/or https://www.vend.email
Great innovation, hope it goes well for you.

My wife and her siblings had a book as kids. They don't know the title. 8 years ago I posted on Reddit in the hope someone could help... We're still none the wiser!

It also means circle in Czech and sounds like crew. When I happened upon the word, I was very proud of myself! I'm usually not great at naming projects.

I'm 40% through getting my first 100 users for https://www.kruh.ltd. So far, I've only added a "banner" announcement on two of my products and mentioned it at the bottom of newsletters to their subscribers. It's taken a couple of months to get this far. I will probably launch in two phases of cohorts. I.e. in blocks of 50.

Looking forward to trying this out. I do a lot of email testing locally for paced.email and vend.email. MailHog is 90% of the way there, but seems like it's fallen by the wayside...

It has been said of me too, on a few occasions! Resting concentration face.

I'm offering 25% off all plans for https://www.paced.email and https://www.vend.email with BF2022. Not really had much success with BF/CM in the past, but alas, I'll try again this year now the products are in more solid positions.

The way I remember Earth's approximate mass is the fact it's 10 times Avogadro's number in kg.
My physics teacher always had a great way of drilling in these tidbits.

Oh. So there was a DNS issue yesterday? A custom of mine was complaining that my apps weee down and blamed CloudFlare. They didn’t inform me of this issue, I had to find out via HN/customers.
130 apps to get off Heroku is going to a massive pain to get through but it’s looking more and more likely…

I built https://www.quikk.co.uk which gives users a better audit trail and backup of their Xero accounting data. I’ve never really marketed it, but MRR-wise it’s doing ok. Promising volumes so far. I keep meaning to put effort into getting it into the hands of those who would benefit most from it but always get sidetracked with my other projects.
Throwing this out there, why not… if anyone would like to help me, let me know!
