I'm not an optimist, just a pessimist who's still proactive: I don't think things are going to get better, but I just can't talk myself into giving up yet.
thinking on deploying excalidraw on my homeserver, so I can store drawings without bothering with export/import. Yes, excalidraw+ for $7/mo; but nowadays I pay only one sub - for Claude; everything else is personal software.
This is a pretty neat site. I remember having vague ideas about something somewhat close to this but doing nothing with them. #idkwhattagtousenotesfollow
What's your main one? I use Substack Notes a bit these days. I was a big Twitter user (and used to work there) years ago, but stopped using it in 2023.

Made barbecue this evening. Lamb and chicken for meat, pepper and zucchini for veggies. Yummy! Kids loved it, the boy's sleeping now, the girl is reading a book, the wife's out with her girls, I'm with wine. Life's good.
It didnโt work out, we found competition offering the same service for free so the #ideanotesfollow fell apart. Need to find something else to do as a side project to textlog. ๐ Thinking of a code editor thatโs focused on the new agentic workflows, so you have it on the side regardless of your agent tools and it monitors the git diff and offers a nice panorama view. Iโve done an extension for VSCode similar to this idea.

Iโm enjoying it. tbh I never played the game, but his journal entries are a fun view into the mind, insecurities and all, of someone building something theyโre excited about.
Brikka.
Someone on HN mentioned it as great design. I looked it up and bought it after a while. It's been such a delight. Even the occasional brew gone wrong adds to the experience.
v60 is also nice when I need it to slow down or be the experience a bit meditative. But Chinese tea is the best for that.
i just get lazier and lazier over time. now it is a portafilter espresso machine, DeLonghi Dedicated, along with a separate grinder, Baratza Encore.
what I love is try out regional types of coffee, but this then always outside, and on travels.
