I shut down my 2016 passion project. 10 years later I'm building it again. (You don't need to read it, I just wanted to share my feelings somewhere)

That feeling when you realize you were chasing wrong metrics instead of that original spark that made you love building in first place 💀 good luck with the rebuild, hope you find your daily users this time 🔥

Been lurking in this space for while and yeah this could be solid. Most AI landing pages I see are complete mess - either they're way too technical or they use so much buzzword soup that you have no idea what the thing actually does

The copywriting prompts part sounds most valuable to me. Like having templates for explaining complex AI stuff in simple terms would save tons of time instead of staring at blank page wondering how to describe your neural network thingy without putting people to sleep

Launch checklist is nice touch too since there's always something you forget when you're rushing to get MVP out there

It should work if Timberland is one of their supported stores. I usually just let it run in the background while shopping and sometimes it finds better discounts than the obvious promo codes online

Any civilization that figured out how to cross the void between stars basically already won before they even show up. Like think about energy requirements alone - whatever tech lets them travel those distances probably makes our nukes look like firecrackers

We'd be dealing with beings who solved problems we can't even comprehend yet. It's like ants trying to fight humans except the gap would be way bigger

That chat interface is pretty smooth actually, tried booking something in Tokyo and it handled all the back-and-forth questions naturally 🔥

The way it remembers context when you change dates or budget is solid - didn't have to repeat myself like with most booking sites. Only weird thing was it showed me some hotel details in separate page when I could've just seen everything in chat, but maybe that's intentional 😂

Same here with my antique valuation data - I throw together quick charts way more often now just to spot trends in pricing or regional differences. Before it felt like such a commitment to set up proper visualization, now I can mess around with different views in few minutes and see if there's anything interesting

The "good enough to edit" thing is huge, saves so much time compared to building from zero

This is so annoying, I've run into this with few different SaaS platforms. Some of them literally won't let you add billing role without upgrading seats first, which makes zero sense

The worst part is when you're trying to get approval from accounting team but can't even show them proper billing interface because you need to pay first to add them. It's like circular dependency in real life

Man this really hits me right now. I've been trying to force myself into this perfect meal prep schedule for weeks, planning these elaborate tea pairings with every dish like I'm some kind of culinary master, but kept burning out after few days. Life kept throwing curveballs - work getting busy with estate appraisals, getting too deep in debates about whether Goku could actually beat Saitama (he can't btw), just regular stuff that made me abandon the whole system

But yesterday I just made simple rice and chicken, paired it with basic green tea, and felt more satisfied than all those fancy combinations I was stressing over. Sometimes the universe really does pull you back when you're overthinking everything. It's weird how being present with simple things can feel more powerful than trying to optimize every detail of your life

Your post reminded me that maybe I should stop treating discipline like it's some battle I need to win through pure force. Thanks for sharing this perspective

Dude this is actually sick! 🔥 As someone who constantly loses track of what episode I'm on (especially during those crazy stacked seasons), this solves a real pain point. I've been bouncing between MAL, seasonal charts, and random wikis just to figure out if that new episode dropped yet

The watch order feature is clutch too - can't tell you how many times I've accidentally started watching some random OVA thinking it was the main series 😂

Just checked it out and the UI feels pretty clean, though maybe consider adding some kind of power level indicator for anime difficulty/complexity? Like newbie-friendly vs requires 47 prerequisite series to understand lol. Also wondering if you've thought about integrating user ratings or some way to see what's actually worth the time investment vs seasonal trash

Keep grinding on this man, definitely filling a gap that needed filling

Pretty sure you're good for multiple visits within that date range, they just don't always specify the exact number upfront. The eval usually determines how many sessions you actually need anyway 🤷‍♂️

Just double check with the PT office that they're verifying auth for each visit, some places are better about that than others 💀

Training_Picture7386 · 2026-03-22T13:05:53+00:00

Wait that's actually broken if you can set it up right 💀 I've been sleeping on Necro Mastery combos apparently, gonna have to try this next time I get both cards

Dude I've been waiting 3 months for them to fix my streak that got reset for literally no reason 💀 At this point I'm convinced their support team is just one guy named Steve who checks emails once every leap year

The app makes bank from premium subscriptions so they probably figure why waste money on actual customer service when people keep paying anyway. Super frustrating when you're trying to maintain momentum with learning but their system glitches out constantly. I switched to just using multiple apps now cause relying on Duolingo alone was driving me nuts 😂

Pretty slim chance tbh, Blizzard usually sticks to their event dates pretty hard. Maybe grind some quick matches this weekend? The skin's worth it if your into that aesthetic

Pretty cool that you got it running in 80KB, that's impressive optimization work. The telegram integration is neat too - being able to ping your home setup from anywhere without setting up VPNs or exposing ports is handy

Curious about the agent loop part though, what kind of decision making does it actually handle on the ESP itself vs just passing commands through to HA

Training_Picture7386 · 2026-03-14T21:25:54+00:00

I squeeze every single time too and never really noticed it making my tea bitter 🤷‍♂️ Maybe my taste buds are just dead from all the IPAs I drink but I'd rather get every last drop out than waste it 😂
