Was going to register but this stopped me...

"Password needs a lowercase letter"

Can you use entropy based password complexity measures please.


Can you give some pointers to some popular implementations or algorithms in any language, please?

Is there some "industry standard" or "best practice" for such a metric?

I guess Bitwarden might have something publicly available...


"This document reflects the outcome of a seven-week independent technical investigation" - :)


Guy seems to be a consultant, so good money invoiced on this "problem".


> that I tune out

You need a 30L fishtank for your desk. Great for tuning out.


Please share your bro science video. I need it :)


If you want the serious science about low carb/keto, I recommend the “Low Carb Down Under” channel on Youtube.


> Would you really want the granularity of your tickets dictated by a pricing model?

I think the pricing is reasonable enough for this not to happen.


On the whole it's also conflating different incentives. You don't typically associate your costs with _how_ you're using your tools, at least you don't want to. It creates a bad (or perverse) incentives to change how you work in order to minimize costs, you're rewarding your users to use your product less.


I think this is great, I was looking for something like this and I appreciate the minimalism.

One question... why do my users need to give you their email to leave a request?

Is there a way that I can send them through with a token that is valid for a time to leave the request?


My magic link isn't coming through when I try to leave a test feature request. What postal service are you using? :)


I require the email address primarily to reduce spam as it discourages most people who don't want to give real feedback. and I plan to release a feature later for some kind of communication between the board owner and the feedback giver and I will need the email for that.

About the email: I use Resend. Could you give me the board ID and a time when you requested a magic link, then I'd be happy to take a look at it. Sorry for the little problem, it shouldn't happen :D

I see about the follow up comms, makes sense. Would still prefer if leaving the email was optional for the request leaver. I realise this complicates things :)


okay so I looked it up: I cannot really see why it doesnt work ;( It does work for me, even when I am trying it with your board id.. maybe give it another try

I will try to find a way to both being able to leave the email and reduce spam!


I haven't. I registered on ghost two years ago before turning 40 and have been paying them for two years now while I write nothing. It's hard to get started. I'm hoping to overcome this. This post helps.


Try writing in a private journal first in order to develop the habit of writing.

I'm a bit eccentric in this respect as I journal more than most people. I have subject matter journals that I use. When I'm working on graphics, I write in my graphics programming journal. When I'm working through abstract algebra, I write in my maths journal(s).

I do some times come across ideas for longer-form essays. But it's usually from the accumulation of small ideas, thoughts, feelings, and the like that I find them.

Eventually, blog posts.

However if it's the anxiety of performing for others that overwhelms you, try developing the habit of writing in private. You can conquer those anxieties later when you're more confident in your underlying skills.


Here’s what I wish someone had told me a lot earlier:

It’s OK to blog about silly things. Rant about something that annoyed you. Talk about how you made something. It doesn’t have to be perfect. No one cares if you make mistakes. Going from zero to something is the important part, not going from something to perfection.

And the more you do all the, the sooner you’ll find your own voice, and the easier it all gets.


I believe OP is talking about people "just writing" in short form on social media like twitter / FB / etc - getting a few words up without much "thought" behind it and hitting publish.


A social media post is a kind of writing but I took the original post to mean a longer, more publicly available work. They suggest 100 words, which would make for a long Facebook post.

You can also use a scarf that goes under their arms and run along with them ready to catch them with the scarf when they are going to fall. This way you apply 0 force and they get all the feedback. It did help that they stared on a balance bike with no pedals before making the transition to the bike with pedals.


I'm getting the same. Free plan 0 tokens. New account.
