About nathan-wailes

I'm a full-stack dev interested in startups/indie hacking. I'm most familiar with Python, Vue, and Angular, and I'm currently learning Go.

Most impressive thing I've ever done: I got a perfect score on the LSAT.

    I feel like I can sense the "stuffiness" (CO2) in a room apart from the scent, but I do think it would be worth an experiment to make sure. I agree it's a potential confounding(?) …

    Wow, I never knew that. My memories are based mostly on being in the woods in Maine, which is mostly pine trees IIRC. I wonder if I could get the same benefit from putting pine nee…

    yeah that's a great point, I need to come up with some way to measure it.

    thank you for the warning! I wasn't planning to set it to pure oxygen, just ~22% (if I can even set them that low), but now I'm scared of the possibility of an accident.

    I definitely feel like I'm not breathing the same quality air when I'm in my room vs when I'm in the woods. I'm not sure how much of an issue it is, though. It might just be me get…

    I'm not sure, but this CO2 issue is something I've noticed in many different situations, including just being in a car with air recirculation turned on. Once I became attuned to CO…

    Wow, thank you for the tip! I'm going to look into the Purifresh, that sounds like exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for. Unfortunately I'm not in the Boston area but thank you…

    Yeah, I have an AQI meter too, and my CO2 meter also tracks humidity. I'm pretty sure it's the CO2. It's admittedly a minor annoyance, I'm just trying to make the perfect work setu…

    Thank you for all the advice! I think this discussion has given me a healthy fear of oxygen cylinders and concentrators. I'm not sure I'll be experimenting with them now.

    I got the idea from noticing that the CO2 level can make it harder for me to think, so I wondered what would happen if I went in the other direction (more oxygen).
