I swear this has to be the most perplexing thing about being human

The guilt is very bad ("why did I procrastinate"). You're tricking yourself. You are the one that willed it regardless. Hang your will over yourself as a law and say "Thus I willed it". With this mode of being guilt cannot exist. And your fate shall be your own to master.

Willing liberates: that is the true teaching of will and freedom– thus does Zarathustra teach it to you

I think I found an underrated productivity hack: Don't buy unlimited data
Only buy the data you need for work
This automatically realigns your values
Instead of trying to manage your time, manage your data

I got a new project: A To-do list app
I pivoted to a Habit tracker x Card game
The idea came from my August anime binge inspired by LOTM's (peak btw) leveling system and tarot card references
Plan:
- Tweak game theory
- Add friend card sharing + co leveling
- Get polar verification 🤑
- Ship it 🚀

We are in a very exciting period of this AI era
We can now create and edit high quality images with in seconds for just $0.02
That's truly astonishing

I've been playing around with Google's nano banana a lot and no matter how many of its family members I threaten it refuses to generate images like Midjourney
The above image is as close as I could get (with eg images)
But I think I figured out Midjourney's secret. They almost certainly have an upscaling model that's trained on high quality materials, lighting and textures... that's what gives them their distinct look
