    Sure! Email your users too - since I'm one of them I'll get the email. :)

    Cool! I was excited when I saw this and signed up. One key thing I was hoping for was a consistent resync with source material particularly google docs. Looks like I'll have to dow…

    Will replicache be deprecated? Or continue to be developed/supported? E.g. Partial downloads aren't really necessary in our case so Zero isn't really necessary (although it is cool…

    Cool! It would be nice to use this to quickly iterate on the prompts I plan to use within https://app.habitstack.com . Basically, supply the user input in the query string and get …

    HabitStack founder here. Your points are well taken! For some context, for the last few years, we've been a service company with a software product. You're seeing us at an awkward …

    This is an important observation. Most productivity apps don't end up "working" because they vastly underestimate the complexity of the problem they are trying to solve. We need to…

    I think you've nailed it. There are very few tools that help you connect the long term with the current week and day, at least in a meaningful way. https://www.habitstack.com/ is g…

    Yeah, the sites are all free from text and human driven.

    Actually, the editor strips out Javascript for safety reasons which unfortunately, makes it so users can't add GA. We're working out whether we should make exceptions when we do th…

    No, right now, it can only be on the right.

    The idea is that since creating an Orb is so quick, it makes sense to create sites for all kinds of different things. We're trying to lower the threshold. Instead of storing stuff …
