which is a great shame, because quality of life is 100% linked with attention span

Paradoxically, intelligence plays against you when you are overloaded.

Because you can almost keep up with everything. Almost. So you keep pushing harder instead of looking for a solution.

First time I reach 100% daily usage

Nice view!

Interestingly, I had to implement a more-than-usual complex feature, and Opus has worked better than Sonnet

Sonnet is overloaded today. switching to Opus then

it seems more important than ever to give real thought to the difference between “busy” and “productive”. it doesn’t matter how fast the buttons get pushed if nothing of value comes out of that flurry of activity

I’ve written about this a lot over the years
jason.energy/context-swit...

We've spent years helping people implement #GTD.

The most common thing we hear isn't "I don't understand it."
It's "I understand it perfectly. I just can't keep it running."

That gap, between knowing and doing, is exactly what #FacileThings is designed to close.

#BuildInPublic

absolutly. sometimes, just the new approach an AI conversation untaps is worthwhile

The Tool Does Matter Practicing GTD with an unsuitable tool adds cognitive load. Using one you're not convinced by adds friction. The choice of framework matters more than you think.

"The Tool Does Matter"

The obvious problem with #GTD: it feels overwhelming to set up.

After each failed attempt, you quietly wonder if you're just not the kind of person who can "get organized."

You are. You just need the right tool. 😉

right now everything in the world is telling you to go faster, ship more, add that feature, start another project

so i'm actively working on feeling ok not doing any of that

The SaaS Landscape in 2026 Risks, Global Challenges, and Strategy

Building a #SaaS company? This is how I see the current situation.

Absolutely. A tool that causes friction will derail you from the habit!

Totally. Also, if you don’t capture everything, your system won’t mirror your reality and you’ll end up not trusting it

Exactly

5️⃣ Price for real value. Favor annual plans. Consider purchasing power parity pricing for markets with weaker currencies.
6️⃣ Find and defend your niche. Build trust and reputation.
7️⃣ Embrace AI strategically. Where can AI help your users do what they already do with you, significantly better?

2️⃣ Own your distribution. Email survives all disruptions. Blogs, newsletters, community.
3️⃣ Stay lean and profitable. Reduce infrastructure costs as much as possible. Keep you team small.
4️⃣ Reduce platform dependencies. Self-host where it makes operational sense.

- More reduced budgets due to inflation.
- Global tensions, sovereignity laws, international tariffs, currency volatility, etc.

What can we do in this scenario? My bets:

1️⃣ Prioritize retention over acquisition. Understand your product and why people leave. Invest in onboarding.

- AI is reshaping the SaaS industry at every level.
- Customers increasingly expect more for less, and pricing pressure is higher than ever.

Add macroeconomic and geopolitical challenges to the specific SaaS businesses risks:

- Higher infraestructure costs.

Building a SaaS company today is genuinely hard:

- SEO and social media don't work the way they did 5 years ago.
- The cost of acquiring customers is extremely high, if you can even find a way to make a positive return.
- Market is oversaturated in almost every software category.

🧵 #SaaS

In spite of all the talk of Claude Code and Codex meaning the end of humans writing code, software job adverts are actually going up, according to @jburnmurdoch.ft.com's crunching of millions of job ads for this week's The AI Shift www.ft.com/content/7325...

“The tool doesn’t matter”

What a fallacy!

There's a specific kind of professional #FacileThings is built for:

Someone who discovered #GTD, believed in it, tried it... and couldn't make it last.

Not because they lacked commitment. Because the tools got in the way.

"Mind like water."

That's the #GTD promise. A state where you're fully present, not mentally juggling, not anxious about what you might be forgetting.

Most people who want this never get it. Not because GTD is wrong. Because implementing it is harder than understanding it.

We've just finished the Engage option.

This is where you choose your next task, based on your current context, available time, and energy level. Applying these filters narrows down your Next Actions list to a few tasks, making it easy to choose the most relevant one.

Zero 1.0 First Stable Release

Zero to 1.0

After two years of work, 50+ releases, thousands of commits, and hundreds of bugfixes, we are officially declaring Zero stable and ready for production workloads.

zero.rocicorp.dev/docs/release...

I switched to Obsidian a couple of years ago. I don't regret it at all.

5/5
This is one of those small decisions that local-first architecture forces you to make explicit. Here, you control what lives on your device. And that turns out to be a feature, not a limitation.

Performance improves dramatically when you have around 2,000 tasks in memory instead of 10,000. 👌
