I've been working on it on and off for a while. What I'm thrilled about is the fact that is has no JavaScript! It is very simple and has a small size!

I have no idea on even how to start building something like this, but don't you think an OS / community hosted wiki like would fit this use-case well? Especially when/if aiming to make it free.

One of the interesting effects I noticed, is that my energy levels are more constant. No more highs, no more lows. Also, and this might be significant, my anxiety levels decreased significantly (I'd often get a mini panic attack if I drank a bit too much coffee, which happened every few days).

The thing about constant energy levels happens with sugar as well.

This allows me to have around double to time I had before of productivity. In the past, I wasted a lot of time being tired because of the "lows" of coffee / sugar, and the energy during the highs was way more than required for my daily tasks.

Having a moderate level of energy, but constant, helps me be constant in the long run and able to have a couple more hours of good work per day.

Also, life with less anxiety and stress is awesome lol. Also, some slight money savings since I liked quality coffee.

However, I didn't notice a relationship between development skills and coffee. Maybe that some smarter people around are usually more health conscious.

I'm hosting mine as an S3 static website, with CloudFront as a CDN and for the domain name linking. Works pretty well. I also have some sort of CI/CD, what I mean is that all my code is on GitHub and whenever there's new code to main, a GitHub action is fired that syncs the branch with the S3 bucket.

I've even managed to remove all the JavaScript from the site :D Works neatly! Let me know if you (or anyone) wants more info ^_^

Edit: Forgot to mention, it's also almost free! I'm paying for the domain names and around 0.1$ / month to AWS.

Do you have any suggestions on how to avoid falling asleep during this?

For 2, I usually just use notepad + calendar, seems to work good since it also has notifications

Thanks :)

1. For tech articles / knowledge databases -> tech seems to change so fast that research done 3-4 months ago is mostly useless (except for a few more high level areas)

2. For recording / knowledge database purposes -> i never seem to go back to them tho, googling (or duckduckgoing?) seems faster to reach an answer.

3. For current note-taking / todo lists / etc they work well, but so does a simple notepad. A history of those doesn't seem to help me with anything specifically.

4. Same for book notes / reading notes, i never seem to go back to them, actually.

So, in what domains or where do find those apps actually useful?

It's not the only problem, but I have to use the sites :)

Tried Zoom but eventually moved to Google Meet because it worked better. It could be WAY better but meh. And the difference between Meet on Firefox & Google Chrome is significant.

All this considering I'm running on a gigabit network. Not 100% sure about the partner.

Do you think those optimizations are only in Chrome or also in Chromium? I'd expect only Chrome but...

Just checked it out, it seems fast. It seems decently private (as private as a corp can get lol).

Not sure about updates & performance about Google products. Do you have any clue if chromium includes the not-in-spec performance optimizations for Google Meet and such?

I fully recommend you try it - it's awesome.

All that's left which I want are dark mode mainly and maybe a cheaper alternative to more powerful GPU / something along those line. Tho, with the long-running tasks I don't really mind.

Great job and congrats on launching!

Not even mentioning the cash savings since cooking at home, no more needing new clothes so often, the environmental impact etc.

The default/common path is evolving into the architect role which seems like a "bad" process of developing an architect.

The best way to develop a new architect, is to have him learn alongside a mentor/teacher who is an architect himself. Developing and architecture are very different jobs which require different mindsets and skills. Also, I've seen many places, teams, etc where people are mostly made to implement feature after feature with no time in between for learning, self-development, courses, etc.

Otherwise, after you've just "arrived" to that architect role you start learning on your own what architecture really is and means.
