angineeringon Show HN: Chatty – a Slack app that help you stay on top of your networking

That's a great idea for slightly more targeted networking! I'll add it to the feature request list!

Thank you :)

angineeringon Show HN: Chatty – a Slack app that help you stay on top of your networking

After discussing WFH issues with friends and colleagues one issue kept popping up -- we kept forgetting certain people existed now that they no longer walked past our desks.

I built Chatty as a tool to remind me to reach out to people in my office, and it's helped me reconnect with a lot of coworkers. I'm checking in with about 10 more ppl a week now :)

angineeringon Norwegian butter crisis (2011)

It was actually really bad, as most Christmas cakes require a lot of butter. It felt quite ridiculous that the shops were suddenly rationing butter to a pack per customer in December. You would have thought it was war times. Some friends abroad even gave me butter for Christmas, which was supposed to be a joke but was actually really useful haha.
