Actuary here, spaced repetition tools are a critical part of how I get through my exam seasons. The key thing to remember here is that you completely made up the 2-4 hour requirement. You can do…

the annoying part is your brain starts treating doomscrolling like the default loading screen anytime there’s 8 seconds of boredom

if you don't find alternative, I rec putting points in **Skill: Ignore Whatever At Will** for example, late last year - I started getting annoyed at teasers that end with **"- let me explain"**.…

I ended up sticking with Notion. I tried moving to Obsidian, but I keep switching between my work PC and iPhone. Setting up syncing with the Git plugin was fine in theory, but in practice it became…

i relate to the deleting apps and just migrating the same behavior somewhere else, deleting tiktok then doing the exact same thing on reels just proves its not really about the app its the reflex of…

It could be that you simply dislike the nature of the work itself; switching to a job you enjoy might resolve this issue entirely.

Thank you for the reminder. I need to go delete Facebook off my phone. I'd delete my account all together to stop doom scrolling reels, but I haven't found a good replacement for selling things on…

As with 95% of posts here, while this is too little info to say anything definitive, this "I accidentally spent hours doing something" thing can be a symptom of ADHD/executive functioning issues.…

I’ve been in this exact loop and the annoying part is it doesn’t feel like “I chose to waste time”, it feels like you just blink and suddenly it’s 4pm and you’ve done 18 micro-things that don’t even…

Was my post removed bc you thought I used AI to write the post? I did not. I imagine it would have been better written if I had (or if autocorrect worked). I am real human. The cycling sub I’m on…

I got tired of buying ingredients I already had or watching food go bad because I didn't have a plan. I actually built a tool called **TinyRecipe** to solve my own kitchen chaos. It handles the…

I built an AI writing assistant for non-native English speakers back in 2022. It felt obvious. Big addressable market, clear pain, people were already paying for Grammarly. I spent three months…

eight weeks is a painful way to learn the validate before build lesson but honestly it sticks way harder when you've actually lived it. the "i have this problem so others must too" trap gets almost…

This is a classic but valuable lesson. You didn’t build the wrong thing, you just skipped the “does anyone care enough to pay” step. A lot of tools fall into that “annoying but tolerable” category.…

I am building https://www.bank-statementconverter.com/ : Convert PDF bank statements to CSV/QBO instantly (best alternative to DocuClipper, AutoEntry, and Hubdoc) for bookkeeping and…

figuring out who to reach can feel overwhelming, especially in a lean setup. I used to send tons of emails with low returns, just hoping for the best. then I stumbled upon Gain Solutions, which…

If you can do it for free that would be great as 25 usd is way too expensive for 20 listings!

This is spot on. Most tools are built assuming stability, same people, same schedule, same locations, and they quietly break when headcount swings hard. The part I’ve seen get overlooked is…

getknoah.com.. RAG-based Q&A for team docs. Curious what AI engines surface for "team knowledge base with citations" or "alternative to glean for small teams." Genuinely don't know if I'm in the…
