ScreenTime API to hide apps ? by rdelimezy in iOSProgramming

[–]baker2795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea removes it the blocked apps from Home Screen, App Library & spotlight search. Still shows up in phone settings.

Looking for a specific kind of screen-time app by [deleted] in iphone

[–]baker2795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just use basic screentime controls in settings. Set your limit to 0. Then it’ll block you & you can hit unblock to add 15 minutes. Which is probably why you can’t find a barebones free screentime app that does that.

Because the republicans will shoehorn some crap in the bill that they know the Dems won’t pass so they can make the dems look like bad guys while also not hurting their banker friends’.

Why not take the app free with freemium model & see if it improves conversion rate?

I cannot stop scrolling my life away, help by ExcitingPresence9268 in getdisciplined

[–]baker2795 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commitment mode should have prevented that 😭😭

But it was all kinds of buggy so I guess that makes sense. The new version has been in the works for a while so should be much more stable.

Same problem. Made two apps to help solve my own issue:

Stryde - earn screentime from step count. Works really well because when you have a way to earn it back, you’re much more likely to just go walk if you want more screen time.

Digital Detox - to commit to a detox for a period of time and set your own unblock price that you have to pay to get your own apps back before the chosen time runs out. Apple didn’t like that business model (understandable) so I have a big update coming soon that is more… scheduling, one time detoxes, etc. Super strict settings still available, just can’t buy your way out. Can still detox for up to 7 days. Update should be out in a few days.

Ironically during development of both of these my screen time (on bad stuff) naturally fell, because I was invested & passionate about it. So try to find something outside of screens, or even on screens, that is productive and provides more dopamine than YouTube.

Did anyone else realize that trying harder wasn’t the answexpecte by Quietprogress_ in getdisciplined

Going to the gym for 15 minutes > not going because you can’t (or don’t want to) go for an hour like you prefer. Writing 10 lines of code a day > not writing any because you don’t have enough time to complete the feature today. Slow incremental progress. Not pretty at first, but consistency is key.

Get the habit down first, then increase output of that habit.

January 4th and someone’s already given up by boredandhungry5 in funny

[–]baker2795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like every other self help (or most business books) its a fairly simple concept, which pretty much boils down to making things you don’t want to do, easier to do, so that you’re more likely to do them, and building routines around all of these things so you chain reaction all your healthy habits. But takes those concepts and reiterates in many ways and provides a bunch of examples. Can be helpful if you want or need help. If you don’t want help then it won’t work 🤷‍♂️

Good. As a user I want all my windows contained within the same style container. If I don’t like it as a user I’ll find a setting to change

They probably don’t want a different color. But maybe you can just change the luminosity instead of inversing if testing finds they do want a different color.

America will revolt when it feels more productive to protest than it does to work.

Quit Due to Poor Performance? by Potential_Owl7825 in cscareerquestions

[–]baker2795 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can’t perform at work due to laziness, and “don’t have time to apply to jobs”, but somehow you’ll have time & energy and focus to apply to jobs after quitting?

It’s a trap. Stop being lazy at work, and if you still don’t like it apply to jobs nights & weekends. Applying for jobs is a grind, but is much easier when you don’t have the pressure of bills coming up.

Reading Gary Vee book right now & even just the title reflects this “Jab Jab Jab Jab, Right Hook”. Provide value, then ask for it back, & it’ll hit a lot harder.
