Can anyone identify the font? I tried whatthefont but it's only giving me paid fonts, I'm pretty sure this is a free font but can't seem to find it. edit: thanks for the answers

I think it may be Noto Sans Mono. >I tried whatthefont Has that website ever worked for anyone?

The author links to their timer script, which links to what looks like dotfiles[1].

The author uses awesomewm (window manager), and loads the default font[2]. Default font is noto sans[3].

edit: add missing 'h' to start of ref 1.

Stop listening to podcasts.

Enjoy the quiet.

I use to fill up my day with listening to podcasts during all non-work time (e.g. driving in the car, exercising, even showering).

It overloads your brain if it's having to process info during every waking moment.

You brain just needs quiet time to think, relax and explore.

I'm way more relaxed, creative and find unique solutions to problems now, than before.

This is the pomodoro method.

Its not. Either you don't understand pomodoro or the method outlined in the submission, but they're not the same.

If I understand correctly, they are used for differently but rely on the same principle; using a time to delimitate a task (in this case, to delimitate reflexion time).

I was actually thinking on using org pomodoro for implementing this.
