Also, you can found a GmbH and only pay in 50% of the €25k. My understanding is that you're still personally liable for the rest, but it lowers the hurdle to founding a GmbH at least somewhat.

I also think of reading self-help books (or management books) as giving myself time to engage with the subject. Even if there is no groundbreaking new information, it gives me time to think about the topic. If you couldn't tell yet, I'm a slow reader.

I personally landed on Peakto[2], since it has the unique ability to create a unified catalog across multiple CaptureOne sessions, but it's probably overkill for what you need.

Moments like these really make me appreciate the customizability of the web experience for advanced users.

Since it's a side project, I haven't worked on the app in a while, but recently picked up development again. So if you have any ideas or suggestions, they are very welcome.

Still not an ideal solution for me, because it requires me to plan ahead when typing the query (or rewriting it later, which is slower).

For me, the main reasons for using a dedicated camera are ergonomics and creative control. I rarely hold the device at eye level when taking a photo, since it makes for more interesting compositions. Somehow my fingers are always in the wrong position when I want to press the shutter button. And once you try to adjust some settings manually in a dedicated app like Halide, it gets extra fumbly and (to me) just takes all the fun out of it.

The big benefit of the phone is that it’s always with me of course. I’m contemplating the purchase of a Ricoh GR, which is a great camera that is just as pocketable as a phone but with much better ergonomics.

When something is still a work in progress in my mind, it is much easier to have a positive attitude towards criticism and see it as something that helps me improve. There's something I can _do_ with the criticism in these cases.

However, when I consider something as done and it is criticized, I can get frustrated and defensive. It's a bigger mental leap that's necessary to make the criticism actionable.

The simple (though not easy) solution is to consider nothing as permanently done.

I usually get around either by bike or public transit, but I had to move some inconveniently shaped items (studio lights for photography), so I decided to rent a shared car. It took me almost 40 minutes for a trip that takes 10 minutes by bike and 15 minutes by public transit. It was also highly unpleasant, because the "weirdos" you mention also exist in car traffic. Only in this case, the "unpredictable idiots" are texting while driving and drifting out of lanes.

I'll need to transport the same things again next week and I'll either find a way to pack things more compactly so that I can take public transit, or I'll take a taxi (still takes longer, but at least I'm not the one dealing with traffic).

For context, this is in Munich, Germany.

I’m glad that there are more and more such simple, single-purpose tools now. It took me a long time to learn this, but I’m now actively staying away from anything that markets itself as “enterprise-ready”. Too much hidden cost in keeping up with all the shifting trends and mental models.

Somehow never realized that there was a version I could pay for – Purchasing now. Thank you for saving me so much window management frustration in the past years!

I run a side business[1] that is lucky to not be dependent on search ads. We started using GA 10-ish years ago because it was free and took almost no effort to set up. But over the years it just got more and more complicated to use, to the point where it got hard to act on the results.

Last year, I switched to Plausible[2] for data protection reasons. The unexpected side effect was that I suddenly understand every single metric in my analytics tool. As a result, I use it a lot more for actual decision-making.

edit: typos

For example, I worked in very engineering-driven environments where “viable” meant nothing more than “it compiles”. Especially when combined with an over-reliance on quantitative metrics (and an under-appreciation of qualitative research) this leads to lots of ideas being killed prematurely. This meme has helped me a lot when communicating in these situations: https://imgur.com/a/pSY7IrF

From that point of view, I can understand the author, but “you should just know what’s going to be successful” isn’t a very useful alternative.

Even with great knowledge of your customers and domain, your first (or second, or third) solution might not be the right fit. Just think of all the personal projects that never end up getting used, even by the author.

In the end, the problem with MVPs and similar methods that get popular is that people think they can replace good judgement with a method. The methods can help, but they won’t do the thinking for you and they won’t make anything risk-free.

The screen shot from your preferences section is odd - all the boxes are there on Windows and macOS for me. Perhaps you can file a bug on bugzilla.mozilla.org
