the charts are kinda whatever
the writeup is insane though
I like that he calculates the probability he is working every 5 minutes of the day
that is an awesome metric if you are going to do something like this
dw Leg, he took 2 whole days off this year
(which includes weekends)
I like that B's were yellow
wait no sorry
A-'s were yellow
Bs are red
I'll get some hate from this, because I know people who they really worked for
But I cannot stand pomodoro timers
if having these very rigid work blocks works for you, great, but it's the antithesis of how I work
You can't rely on being fully fueled by inspiration striking you, but I find that the more I estimate and chunk time, the less productive I end up being
I follow the vibes based work flow
of if I need to do something I panic and do it, if I do not need to do something immediately, I work if I am motivated
I start more projects/tasks than I can reasonably complete, and then make future me solve it
I shoot for the stars and crash land on venus usually
I just let all my spinning plates drop and see which one causes issue
I think the pomodoro method could work for me if I had artistic/creative things I was doing
having set pause/evaluation built in to limit infinite refinement might? be useful
But I don't really do creative, unbounded stuff
My pause/break timer is "am I tilted enough at my math that I want to stop"
its a built in feature
I never really got good at forcing myself to work without a reason/deadline
and then my downfall was becoming too aware of the arbitrary nature for most of those
I'm productive, but not focused, and needing to be explicitly productive on one thing for no reason is -vibes for sure
you do it
kind of an off topic poll

Played it for the Plot was funny, but my favorite is Pokemon
Replying to Regi #mythicalsquids I wish peertube mobile player was better, would rewatch more rob content
agreed
neither the new webplayer nor the new Peertube app are great on mobile,
The only saving grace is that background play works (unlike vanilla YouTube)
@Dane I did a really shitty job fixing that bug you hate
can you test it for me
I'm going to break it again I'm sure
if the snow puts all the gators to sleep, you could do something very funny
Do some jumps before you lose the light
When my last company went skiing, my old boss would makes these huge ramps and dare everyone to try them until some woman breaks their ankle on the landing
it became a right of passage to survive his death traps
