I keep losing my streak because it resets at around 7PM my time. Makes it difficult to keep track of things. I last checked in yesterday at 6:36 PM and just now at 8:10 PM, but somehow I lost my streak. :( Not a huge deal but kind of disheartening and definitely has the opposite effect on my psychology than the streak is supposed to have.

I had the same issue at first but I found this tidbit of info and it helped me... Type /countdown to see how much time there is left until midnight UTC (the shippening). You need to complete at least one todo before that time to keep your streak.

So far most of my projects use Node + Express on the backend and vanilla JS/CSS/HTML on the frontend., but I feel I'm reinventing the wheel. Next I will build a static site with regular updates, so I'm looking at Gatsby which uses React. (I was initially turned off by the tech stack and used Hugo for a blog but I can't really change the backend). So is it worth it to learn React? I don't know if it's like learning how a race car works when all I need is a bike PROS: - Not reinventing the wheel - Industry standard, so nice skill to have - Conventions, so less messy code? CONS: - Learning curve - New tools to configure - Overkill?

Are you facing any problems right now with the current stack then only try learning it. Hugo to Gatsby is not needed except for SEO & Performance but yeah React is a great thing to learn & also it gets a lot tricky to use Vanilla shit on any useful website. I tried making a useful website in Vanilla JS back in the day but it was difficult & I wrote about it at https://100dayz.js.org/2016/12/02/AMA-Reader/ React is a skill you'll keep for the next 5 years so take it as an investment Yep there is a learning curve but there are amazing resources now & most are free like https://learnwhileyoupoop.com, https://tylermcginnis.com/free-react-bootcamp, https://egghead.io/courses/the-beginner-s-guide-to-react or paid ones like https://reactforbeginners.com & https://advancedreact.com You'll learn much faster now since there are [plethora of links](https://github.com/enaqx/awesome-react) on React. Let me know if you need more links since I know lots of links about React which will probably increase your learning speed :) Also you don't need new tools to configure since [create-react-app](https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app) takes away all your pain. Overkill? Nope. Its definitely not an overkill. The only con you've mentioned I agree with is Learning Curve which IMO you'll tackle much faster bcz of the speed at which you are shipping products So learn it while shipping new products like the Triangle one N O W G O L E A R N R E A C T O W G O L E A R N R E A C T W G O L E A R N R E A C T G O L E A R N R E A C T O L E A R N R E A C T L E A R N R E A C T E A R N R E A C T A R N R E A C T R N R E A C T N R E A C T R E A C T E A C T A C T C T T

The easiest way to visualise what I want want is by taking a look at this image => https://s3.amazonaws.com/bound2/example.png Basically want the images to "bounce" round the website similar to this => http://next.plnkr.co/edit/HTHkXaD2BCFWTCK5tROi?p=preview&utm_source=legacy&utm_medium=worker&utm_campaign=next&preview The example above uses canvas! But I'm not sure if you can drop images into canvas easily? I can't seem to find any library out there. Any help massively appreciated!

Break up the problem in smaller bits and then tackle them one by one: 1. Create code example with image on canvas: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6011378/how-to-add-image-to-canvas 2. Make image move on canvas 3. Detect when image reaches edge of screen 4. Make image bounce when reaching end of screen

Whenever I see a clever design technique I might want to draw inspiration from in the future I like to somehow bookmark it. However, every app I've tried has failed me. In the past I've tried LittleSnapper (dead), Ember (dead), and most recently Pixave (unreliable). I'm leaning towards just using Finder with tagged images, but I can't help to think there must be a better solution.

I'm thinking to launch my project soon and everything is left is paid subscriptions. I feel like I will spend about 1 week on implementing this but I already want to validate an idea and get feedback about my project because I already spent about a month on working on it. So I'm thinking about launching it now and then add paid subscriptions if the idea is valid. I was anyway thinking to give a trial for 2 weeks without registration and filling any billing details. What do you think about it? Isn't it kinda wrong to do something like this?

You can give a trial for 2 weeks without asking a cc. Make sure they know this upfront. Converting people that don't fill in a cc to a paid user seems difficult and I'm very happy I asked for cc for Simple Analytics.

I would love to have the coverage that BulletTrain provides but in a different framework. Not super jazzed on Ruby/Rails.

Spark maybe? https://spark.laravel.com/

I uploaded an animated gif directly from a browser, but the gif became a still image. Tried with compressed gif files, but it didn’t work neither.

I have been working on the desktop application for almost a month (https://wip.chat/products/1789). It is almost ready, I need only find some more beta-testers so I could get feedback and maybe change something, fix bugs and then finally launch it. But right now I'm thinking about migration to another database because in the future maybe I will not be able to do something I need with the database I use right now. And I'm afraid of it. I'm afraid that in the future it will hard to migrate to another database and it will be a huge problem. But an idea is still not validated and I have no idea my app has future or not. Also, I feel like I have been working on the application too long and I need to launch it soon but I always come up with more features and try to find something that will be a cause of growth in the future and fix it. So the question is: what would you do instead of me? Launch as soon as possible to validate the idea and then come up with a solution if the database will actually be a problem or spend more time and migrate to another database?

Launch ASAP. Change your db only when it is a problem. The priority is traction, when you have traction you will worry about scaling :)

I'm currently looking into https://getterms.io. I also found https://termsandconditionstemplate.com/, but it looks like a mid-sized enterprise.

OK, I kinda solved by myself 😂 After 3 hours of research, I decided to go with https://getterms.io, because It is written in easier English than the others. I will add some paragraphs from other generators to serve my needs. Here's what I found 1. https://getterms.io is free. They generate premium "comprehensive" version with 15$~45$. One payment for 1 domain. 2. https://www.iubenda.com/ 27$/year subscription. You can try for free. Their legal team constantly updating the text. I'm not sure they generate TOS also. The text seems most detailed and accurate. Complies cookie law. One license for 1 domain but you cannot use with copy-and-paste manner. 3. https://www.shopify.com/tools It's a free option. Best if your site has an online shop. 4. https://termsandconditionstemplate.com/ Personally, their text is a bit difficult to read. As I mentioned in the question, The tone is a bit intimidating and it sounds like you're a mid-sized company, in my opinion.

Seems to me like it would be great to be able to track pomodoro-style work sessions via @wipbot. So you could send: /work 30m wip.chat would show a real-time display of who is working on what and wipbot would follow up when the session is over, asking: - How was that session? (1-5 quality) - Did you complete your task? - If not: "Another session, same task?", if so: "New task?" After several sessions in a row: "Ready to take a break?" A couple years ago I built a product similar to this (http://actionally.com) that was really effective, but I think the added element of social proof/peer-pressure from WIP will make it even better. An added benefit is actually having data on how long certain tasks/projects are taking. Thoughts?

I'm in. It would be even cool to share our to-dos and possibly share opinions during work etc.

Could someone advice some online tool where is possible to work in a spreadsheet to achieve the following goals: - Users should have access via link - Users can add own information but do not delete other information? - Users shouldn’t be able to delete other information or rows - Perfectly if they can add a new raws and add own information there Thanks, Dan

Probably Google Forms + Sheets. Maybe Airtable?

I want to add a chat box to my product site to catch sales questions. I've got three requirements: - It needs to be free (I don't have a lot of financial room at the moment). - I need to be able to steer customers towards sales questions and prevent support questions (that's what GH and CodeCanyon support are for). I found Drift, Crips, and Freshchat. Any others I should take a look at?

Crisp is awesome, even on the free plan
