Edit: I just discovered that Noriega was also captured on January 3rd.
A few years ago, I read about the regrets of dying people, and many of them related to spending more time with their families... That was one of the reasons I decided to close my company last year (after 20 years; I'm 45 now) and start over, working with just a few customers, making less money but having more time. Now, I only work part-time to have the chance to spend more time with my loved ones.
- If you have sleep apnea that might explain why you wake up in the middle of the night, and there are treatments you could try.
- Wearing ear plugs (the ones that look like a screw) has helped me a lot, but I have to cut them to be able to sleep with them, since they do protrude from the ear and are uncomfortable.
- There's a simple trick to fall sleep again in the middle of the night: Set a specific time in the morning to write down the thoughts that worried you the most, with possible solutions. When you wake up in the night, think that you will attend your thoughts only the morning at the time you have specified, with some time you will see how you can fall sleep easier. (This is part of the solutions to attend the rumination thoughts)
- I highly recommend you watching this podcast with Matthew Walker, which is one of the most important scientist in this matter: https://youtu.be/gbQFSMayJxk
- As I have suffered insomnia for 20 years, but have improved a lot in the latest years, this thread is based in my own research: https://twitter.com/JuanPabloSarmi/status/168856844920991744...
I'm in a similar mood, but most of the indie maker's products are created this way and some end up scaling pretty well and turned in good investments, as they are usually cost-effective.
It was hard to get designs visually appealing but the results are pretty good IMHO. Everything runs in the browser ;)
PD: AI tools can't create vectorial designs (yet).
As you probably know, webP and AVIF are widely supported now, so you can convert to those as well, and soon I will include JPGXL format as well.
It has a very generous free tier, probably one of the best in the market, and it even generates the HTML code for correct implementation using the picture tag (for the non-tech guys), well, I hope you like it and find it useful.
