The key to adoption is making sure people know how to use your product.
So I built a delightful onboarding flow for defer tonight.
Gotta love web sockets 💜

Too many ideas. Not enough time.
I want an app I can just send ideas to and have it collect resources/inputs over time (because I'm constantly being inspired). That way, when I do have a few spare moments, I have a nicely organized collection of "ideas and context" to start from.
It could also start planning some of them, and evolve the plan as I send it more things.
... And now I have another idea of something I'd love to build if I had more time 😅

Nice!

I love LogSnag but my fave part of Elixir is not needing third parties or external systems - PubSub instead of Redis etc So I built FYI: product event tracking + Slack/Telegram pings for Phoenix. No external services. mix fyi.install github.com/chrisgreg/fyi #MyElixirStatus

I get multiple app ideas at random times and my go to these days is to chat to an LLM to refine the idea.
Issue is this gets lost in chats about how to cook a turkey and why my back hurts, and I need to extract that into tasks.
So I built myself Sprout 🌱

Same is true for boxing.
You unlock a new level of speed and power when you relax your hands

Jason Fried, on the benefits of a light grip. He uses a drum analogy to say: "When I first started, I gripped the sticks too hard, and when you grip the sticks really hard, you don't play as well for lots of reasons. You can't get the same tone and you don't have as much movement. There's no ghost note. Lots of things become harder. Your hand cramps up, so you can't play as long. But by relaxing your grip, you get better." @jasonfried

Favorite new-ish addition to my podcast rotation: Dialectic by @jacksondahl
He's a world-class question-asker.
