i am not posting anything here because i'm in the middle of a hard reset of life. trying to look more internally and understand what all is going wrong or what is even going right. what is it that i need to double down on and what is it that i need to stop doing? also i'm trying to set a few good habits that have direct impact on my health both physically and mentally. all in all this whole process might take two to three more days and i won't be posting anything here until those things are in line the way they should be. see you on the other end of this reset.

anyways i will be sleeping now. i have a few urgent tasks to be completed as soon as i get up, gn

1m

a few failed experiments isn't actually a bad thing. it's probably the most important thing i need to embrace and of course learn the lessons and make things better

1h55m

finished watching drishyam-2 as well. writers have seriously done their job man, everything was so well planned, hats off!

2h

just finished watching drishyam-1, what a movie! probably one of the best i have watched in a long time.

out of all my projects buildplusplus and nowu are my personally most used projects. radial and phonedown does have lot of potential, but i need to get much more serious and double down on only one of these two, i can not spend time building both at the same time. so if i have to make a choice i think phonedown can wait. buildplusplus (very long name ngl) can be worked upon in parellel as it serves as the planning/execution engine for radial to flourish. idk man, let's see.

18h34m

build++ now supports creating todos and adding notes -> now the obvious next step is create our own mcp server so that my agent can pull up the todos and also mark them complete! let's go.. ;) try at: build.pranit.dev

4h7m

reminder: get up from the chair/bed, stretch some muscles or go on a walk.. nothing can go more wrong than having health crisis out of nowhere! tc.

4h30m

good morning 🫡

7h43m

gonna sleep (it's late, sleep schedule has no schedule) i need to find a solution somehow.

3m

watched nayattu tonight, it was a good watch.. well you know it's good if it's malayali yk.

4h15m

i think im delusional af

14h56m

good morning ;)

15h40m

so I woke up around 12:30 ish, and immediately joined a meeting (disadvantages of working from home). wrapped up the office work around 6. so i think today i should try resetting my sleep schedule. will be sleeping before 2am which means I will have to wake up around 9, which isn't bad compared to current routine. this way i can atleast get some morning sunshine (very much needed atp).

12h2m

i thought ill sleep but went on to solve an issue in maptym.com, the input flow is now much smoother. editing past entries or adding stays in between is working smoothly. anyways going to sleep cause session limits are over. bye bye.

1h38m

it's raining outside <3 gn for now, see you in the daytime ;)

4h46m

there is one caveat though, the thing I've realised about the maptym is that it's not the most life changing product but an aesthetic yet more functional travel journal which can later convert into a travel planner app, so i still think the scope of this idea is going to be very limited.. 🥲 I should probably spend more time discovering better problems to work upon, the one which will have a meaningful impact, can be measured in terms of how many people feel happy using it, how much productivity increase we've been able to achieve, people cannot go back to not using it for the good reasons ofc. anyways explore-exploit is what will work no way an idea like this going to pop up in my head randomly so gotta keep building new stuff 🙏🏻

8m

so tonight I'm working on making the maptym better.. 🧡

1m

last few days to use fable.. let's go

2h12m

after finishing the work i just fell asleep.. then woke up and checked time and it was 10:30 something, guess what i was confused whether it was am or pm.. my orientation about time is super skewed atp. hope i make it out of this phase 🫂 (self hug)

19h42m

battery 1 percent.. bye bye

54m

wtf

3h47m

one thing i have realised is that i must do 10min meditation everyday without a skip. this is going to be a rule for me going forward 🙏🏻

2h21m

the frequency of the updates has gone down recently, and you can guess the reason 😐, so much work in office these days :( anyways this can't be my excuse 😐

5h47m

finally it's raining in gurugram 🥹

21h23m

been working while being half asleep 😪

10h28m

btw just finished watching ps1, its an interesting movie. based on that i have got one project idea, will be sharing soon. about the film, although the film itself is fictional the history of chola's and pandya's is something real and i need to be explore it more deeply, and tbh i personally need a lot of history lessons, i have been living under a rock when it comes to how rich our history is.

37m

maptym.com is now live, some final work is still left until the public release, as i want to make it feel more intentional. but you can start using it now <3

4h9m

supabase is way too expensive man, just because you have auth built in you can not charge so much. i would rather write my own auth and use a simple pg db using neon.

5h5m

was chatting with fable 5 yesterday, and damn it was one of the greatest conversations i ever had..

3m

health seems ok now 🫡

12h23m

sorry bro 😞 aaj bhi 0 progress on maptym, but did make some progress in some other things, will tell you when you come back.

1d4h

I think I am taking too much stress.. I need to understand that the same thing can be done without stressing about it!

1d2h

2d21h

again it's monday.. i don't have any emotions though (accepted my fate for now) tbvh I do feel a little bad doing this job, but not for the reasons you think, anyways not a topic for now, gotta sleep.

8h59m

8h52m

15m

abhi sounga to shayad kal hi uthunga 🥲

12h24m

woke up around 6pm actually.. took a shower, had dinner (biryani).. and started watching an anime 'Barakamon', through the ep1 and it seems interesting. will be making chai now and get back to working + watching anime. the thing going the most wrong here is my sleep schedule, otherwise i am doing ok, not good ofcourse. and what does good means is iykyk (or just ask me)

17h21m

1h41m

something off topic // for some reason i really want to learn dancing, at least some form or the other. in my entire school/college life i have never ever performed anything on stage and i think it was so silly of me to not do so.. hope in my adult life atleast i get to perform something for a large audience on stage, doesn't necessarily mean to dance, it could be any act..

3m

bpp looks promising at least in my local testing but needs a lot more iterations before it becomes useful for the general public.. have some use cases in mind and will be building them one by one

2h25m

anyways love love 🌴🥥

2m

time to make some tea.. 💚☕ although i am a little tired, i have to finish buildplusplus v1.. otherwise i am not going to sleep at all, ofc will have to sleep when i hit the token limits though 😜
