<p>Great advice, but don't treat it as a checklist.
If you like to go to the gym, do it. If not don't do it, leave alone every day.<p>Your focus should not be in improving yourself and being the best you can be. It's about getting to know yourself better.<p>What is it that you enjoy. And if you don't know, now's the time to find out. Maybe it's going to the gym, maybe it's finding a great breakfast place. Sitting there, having breakfast, being around other people.<p>Finding activities that you enjoy doing outdoors, bonus points.<p>You've already done the first step in asking for advice. Even though it might sound neglectible, that's a great achievement. So many people suffer from depression and have a hard time to take this first step. Congratulations!<p>Get out there try things, learn who you are. Maybe there's this thing that you always wanted to do places you always wanted to see. Now is the best time to do it.
And if there's no such thing, you've been given a great list of things to try.<p>Best luck to you in this new phase of life!</p>

<p>Just because OP takes medication after a break up, doesn't mean it's a "normal" life situation for them. They could have suffered from depression before, it's not even clear if they started only after medication. The break up could also bring up some childhood trauma, like the loss of a loved one.
What seems to be a normal life situation to someone might not be a normal life situation for someone else.
I agree though that if no depression is diagnosed it's a bad idea to take antidepressants.</p>

<p>Imo they explain pretty well what they are trying to achieve with SIMA and Genie in the Google Deepmind Podcast[1].
They see it as <i>the</i> way to get to AGI by letting AI agents learn for themselves in simulated worlds. Kind of like how they let AlphaGo train for Go in an enormous amount of simulated games.<p>[1] <a href="https://youtu.be/n5x6yXDj0uo" rel="nofollow">https://youtu.be/n5x6yXDj0uo</a></p>

<p>Love the simplicity of your to to-do list syntax highlighter in comparison to todo.txt. That's more how my brain works, as simple as possible. Especially your take on the due date vs. date when you plan to do it.

<p>Congrats on the launch.
I'll take a closer look soon and only played around a bit.<p>Would be great if you could extend the documentation.<p>If you're not open sourcing the app, what about at least open sourcing the documentation?<p>One thing I'd like to extend is on <a href="https://www.grafychat.com/d/docs/intro" rel="nofollow">https://www.grafychat.com/d/docs/intro</a><p><i>3. Configure Ollama server to make sure it allows connection from grafychat.</i><p>That's not very helpful. Something along the line
Set the environment variable OLLAMA_ORIGINS to "<a href="https://www.grafychat.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.grafychat.com</a>" and rerun "ollama serve". Use your custom host if your using the self-host option.<p><pre><code>  ```sh
  OLAMA_ORIGINS="https://www.grafychat.com" ollama serve
  ```
</code></pre>
Is not that much more text but makes it way easier for people to go and try out your app with ollama.</p>

<p>"This study explores a violation of Newton's third law in motile active agents, by considering non-reciprocal mechanical interactions known as odd elasticity. By extending the description of odd elasticity to a nonlinear regime, we present a general framework for the swimming dynamics of active elastic materials in low-Reynolds-number fluids, such as wavelike patterns observed in eukaryotic cilia and flagella."</p>

<p>Yes, using an adblocker would be a way for me to not see ads.<p>But I'm not using one because I usually don't mind seeing ads as it's the main income for most sites.<p>In this case the ad to content ratio is just too much for my taste.

<p>If open source makes money thats great. But if your site contains more ads than content I don't spend my time finding out how you differ from other linux distros. Being "Free" is definitely not enough.<p>But I get it, that was no constructive criticism so I try to do better.<p>- the ad/content ratio is way to high<p>- too many unnecessary animations and the choice of colors make me think its bad design. And i transfer this opinion on the main product.<p>- its not clear at all to me why I should choose this distro over all the other free, easy to use linux distributions<p>- all of the above points drive me away from spending more time on the site to find out more about the project<p>This is highly subjective, but it seems like I'm not the only one struggling to find the information I want in a time I'm willing to spend.<p>(Edited to fix formatting and typos)</p>
