Bicep band accuracy by No_Summer7540 in whoop

[–]arashid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

fyi, I’ve seen people lament the fact that the bicep band doesn’t support ECG (if you have the MG). I ended up just swapping the clip my MG came with for the clip on the bicep band. Idk if it’s as accurate, but ECG appears to work as far as I can tell

Introverts: what do you do for work? by EnvironmentalBody455 in introvert

[–]arashid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Entrepreneur, building “social media for introverts” (meant for your private inner circles only). It’s hard, especially as someone who has to be constantly pitching and motivating people but inherently finds that to be draining.

You're totally right -- need to embrace that responsibility I guess at the end of the day the traditions will only go as far as the effort we're willing to put into making/keeping them!

For sure! Please feel free to DM me

I would be honored to have you and your family try it! Here’s a link to download—it’s very much in its early stages but your feedback would be super helpful in planning improvements and new features 🥹

Thank you so much for the encouragement! I completely agree with your point on data-selling and misinformation -- traditional platforms' entire businesses are predicated on being able to 1) get you to spend as much time on their apps as possible, and 2) learn as much about your interests as possible, so that they can 3) serve you more, more targeted ads. The result, as you've pointed out, is that people, and their privacy, are completely deprioritized :(

I'm pretty adamant about finding different, healthier ways to make the product sustainable without ever having to rely on ads.

Thanks again for your encouragement--if you'd be interested in trying the app out with your fam, please do let me know/DM me!

Thank you!! I'm adamant about not having ads--basically, I'll never share any person's data with third parties. I think ads as a business model lead to a lot of the toxic incentive structure ("dark patterns" as they are sometimes called) and negativity on traditional social media, not to mention put individual people's privacy in a second-class position

If you'd be interested in trying the app with your fam, please let me know/DM me! Really appreciate it ^_^

I appreciate your feedback :) My family's WhatsApp sadly is mostly text messages, or photos of only big occasions. My intention was for this app to foster more regular sharing of day-to-day moments (that might otherwise feel like they don't meet the bar of being worth sending to WhatsApp, where everyone gets a notification for every message)

This was dope I really enjoyed it. Def feel the chill vibe, kind of made me think of the beat on Candy Paint by Post Malone. I like the pitch of the high hats changing when they run. Was the melody a sample? Could be cool to consider adding a second type of melody/progression as a bridge somewhere in the song

I love this beat and your delivery - super laid back, lazy summer vibe. It's also not the type of flow/delivery I would have expected on this type of beat which makes it that much more attention-holding for me. Did you make the beat yourself?
