#112In 2023, I promise myself to play a hard ball with anyone requiring my presence on periodical meetings. I love to meet people, but not agenda-less people.
Same! I started doing it this year, and it's... surprisingly difficult.
I got tired of devoting diffuse attention to meetings that don't really need me. So I've been slowly disappearing.

#113Loose 25 pounds between January and March and another 25 between Mai and September.
Find another paid side project. It was fun having one for a while, but it slips into development hell. The client wants to do minor changes continuously. These minor changes end up in complete restart. It will be 4th time soon and I am tired of it. 3 times new hardware and 1 time new algorithms.
Spend more time with family. Work requires too much time.

#114I'm making it the year I break up with shitty tech companies. Google is first. Migrating my email starting today. On another note, I always start my new year resolution when I think of it, I don't bother waiting for the year to turn.
Which service did you choose? I'm using migadu but always interested in others choices
I use fastmail and love it

I went with Fastmail for the email. I have seen a lot of praise on HN for Fastmail and that influenced my decision. I went with the standard plan for a year on a domain I have for 10 years. I'm incredibly happy with the switch already as well as the savings over Google's ever increasing price for gsuite.

#116I've never been much into new year's resolutions, but perhaps if I actually write it down, then some of them will come to fruition?
- tidy up my stuff, sell some of them off
- play more video games
- learn a bit of Japanese
- learn how to fall asleep anywhere
- convert some of my mass into muscle mass

#117Get started with a complete apartment renovation.

#118Play more video games. I feel like this year I haven't had a chance to get lost in a great video game's narrative. Spent far too much time trying to be productive and not just taking a break to relax.
Btw if anyone has any suggestions for games to play. Please share.

#119Continue working on my app, with the end goal of writing a book about the development process. I did a Show HN few days ago but didn't get traction: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34163473 —will try again when I add new features.

#120To recover from long covid. It's been almost a year and it feels like I'm half way there, so I am optimistic about getting this over with in 2023.
Right there with you. I hope I can run my 4 miles in the morning again.
