This was specific to writing, and it is sometimes the hardest thing to finalize and get out there, it's sometimes ultra hard, so there's time when you definitely don't enjoy it. But overall, I agree that you should enjoy it, and this is also what. I guess the same counts for coding.

Check out the Markdown editor Inkdrop on the website yourself, just click on it and play around. https://www.inkdrop.app/

I use a single Docker container [1] to run a full VM on Linux, and it works like a charm for Excel and Word when I still need them.

While I use Claude a lot for my Omarchy plugins and Linux optimization/failure detection, I don’t use it for writing and note-taking, especially for coming up with unique ideas and driving them home by writing them through to the end.

It's so hard to finish an idea that is not yours and is just suggested by AI.

It's also hard to finish an idea that is mine.

hehe :D

Only thing missing is a Screener, which once you have it, you cant live without. No need for burner adresses, as nobod lands in your inbox unapproves. I added it to my TUI, nvim and markdown first email client, neomd.

this is great to see! I used SeaweedFS in the meantime; it worked great too, and there are some other great alternatives [1], but I'm glad the original MinIO version continues. Gonna try this soon.

SeaweedFS is also great and would try it if I had a greenfield project. However I had a very big installation of Minio already so trying to move it to anoyther system would be very difficult and dangerous (and would probably need a lot of downtime). So Silo was a godsend!

I think that happens already with email. I get a ton of same emails "want to join my podcast" or "see my product" based on some github projects I did or so, clearly all ai written. Important to have a good screener in your email.

same, also what I noticed

beautiful write up, thanks for sharing. I'm adding it to the "further reads". Love the "pre-tirement" term :)

author here, this is the differentiation I meant, and I didn't make it clear enough before - I added now a callout to clarify this more:

> To me, vacations are too short to turn off completely. Here, where I live, we have 5 weeks a year, if you are lucky, you can take three in a row in summer. But having two months or more, it’s completely different. Your mind will take time to turn off, to shut down from everyday life, and that’s when the benefit of new ideas comes, usually out of the blue, not forced just because your mind and body are resting from work and everything else.

I agree with you that it is very different.
