Welp, I was a pretty heartless bastard back in the days of getting my first scientific calculator.
Pun intended; what the heck is happening under the hood there?
That said, while everyone is up in arms about the payment model here, I'm more concerned with the nature of the app's content.
What I was expecting to be an interactive, attention-grabbing set of modules turned out to be a whole bunch of audio recordings and generic goal-setting form fields. I almost laughed when I was creating my first goal, because in the introduction video by the cofounder he makes a point to explain that, "Like many of you, I've invested in planners and organizers hoping that they would magically help me become more productive." Can someone from the team please explain how this app's first iteration is not simply the modern & digital version of planners and organizers? Which features will be able to help users with which ADHD side-effects?
To be frank, I had high hopes when I started this free trial, only to realize that it smells a bit like a newer version of the self-help tapes people would fall asleep to in the '80s.
This self-proclaimed adjective was thrown in the mix five separate times within this note in an effort to explain how great the work that FB delivers is (and likely, to imply that the negativity applied to FB in the public eye is unfair).
Saying Facebook is "industry-leading" with respect to social media and technology is like saying Priscilla is your favorite wife, dude.
Put your money where your mouth is, or you'll likely continue to lose it as various outlets reported this week.
I will painfully admit I hassle with going from PT/PDT --> UTC more than I should, but after a while it was pretty easy to commit a simple number of hours (+7/8, depending on daylight savings timing) to memory.
I used to use [Hour](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hour-world-clock/id569089415?m...) for MacOS to avoid this problem; I'm sure there's a similar or native solution for Windows & Linux as well.
(2) I'm equally intrigued by the paradox that in order for the algorithms that perform the CSAM detection to work, it must require some data set that represents these reprehensible images (which are illegal to possess).

Have the benefits of contextualizing your short-term goals outweighed the cost in time it takes to make the table for small tasks?
I truly enjoy the sentiment and message behind this product. IMO though, at the rate they're going and in the direction they're headed, a consumer is better off with existing products that have been offering what Light II does for decades.

That said, I like the motif brought up here, and I think the only thing lacking from the piece is how this stifles developers' engageability and creativity.
