That’s some crazy high level of willpower

You must’ve been drinking a lot

Going to bed on time. As a friend put it: you sleep at the start of the day, not at the end of the day.

Oh sure, a lot of things actually. I tried to stop biting my nails throughout my life but it was only possible a couple of years ago. I think it’s because I was taking good care of my body and was spending a lot of time with people. Whenever I did bite them I would spit it out immediately. I also learned how to take proper care of them.

What about mate or kumbucha? Have you ever tried good quality tea?

Ah if you’re into that you can also divide your sleep time by 90 minutes and be good at falling asleep

How did you get through all that?

Did you know that there’s smart alarms, like apps, that track your sleep and will wake you at the right time? There’s also alarm lamps that slowly go on so you’ll wake up naturally.

What made it work the third time?

I’m impressed that you wrote such a long response without any caffeine.

How does that work?

What was it like

Yes and in fact my dreams feel more real than my waking life. Don’t get me wrong, I know the difference, but my experiences there are just deeper. Not something I can explain with a few words.

Well, you’d need to send a message to some people that you know would care, when you die or are kidnapped.

There are plenty of services for sending any sort of message.

You’ll send the data with a private key and hand out the paired public key before you die. That way any tampering with the data will be obvious to the receiver.

I’d just send a link to the data. For example store the data on Proton drive with a share link.

Now you’d need to detect that you’re dead or kidnapped. You could have a timer of say a week or a month, and whenever an email or message is received it resets it. You could also send a warning message to yourself before it goes off, so you have a chance to deal with errors such as an email not arriving.

You’d need a 2nd service to check if the main service is running. Or perhaps it just replies once you send it a message once a day or week or month.

You’d also have to make sure that your reset message to the service is secured. Most likely it will be as long as it isn’t absolutely obvious, like you japping on about it at work. But one idea would be to use a proton mail address and keep a pin lock on the app. If you want to go the extra mile the email should also contain something only you can know.

Quite frankly I don’t think they’d even expect you to have any such system set up and they wouldn’t hack you before you’re dead. But maybe I’m wrong. If you really suspect that you’d need someone who is specialized in infosec.

I’d say go look for an existing service that can do this entirely via email, I’d bet it exists already. Otherwise you need to be able to code a bit or find a coder.

Actually game dev is quite a social thing. You are constantly communicating with people, having meetings, and pair programming is a thing. In fact one of the reasons I went solo is because I wanted to save my social energy for my free time.

Why I code? Well, it’s just a craft like any other, like drawing, gardening, or sewing. I used to work with wood actually as a child, but I never had enough material because it was expensive. On the computer I could create the same sort of stuff but for free. It’s fun to create.

Ahh okay. Yeah I know them.

Thanks for the share. What are your thoughts on oop?

Neat!
