Totally agree. To others: The book is called "The Artists Way", and is an excellent guide to become more creative and expressive.

Consider using "bubble mapping" and connecting words/thoughts, instead of writing linear text. I write a daily journal - in this calm relaxed mode, I write linearly (on dotted pape…

Hello HN crew - I am seeing the tendency for people to allow AI agents to access local project & user folders, and beyond (operating system files). I thought to ask the question: H…
