The booklet is a fantastic resource with thought-provoking activities and questions that helped us start each year with intention. Oh, and it's free!
This year, being new parents, we haven't been able to prioritize it.
So, I thought I'd create a GPT to make it easier to have that reflection through a simple conversational interface.
Comments/feedback are welcome!
If people find it useful, I'll build it into an app.

Ask HN: AI product builders, how do u assess/iterate on quality of your prompts?
I'm building an app that creates "choose your own adventure" stories. I'm looking to improve the prompt that writes these stories but I feel like I'm making changes somewhat blindly...I mean, I'm not sure if the changes I'm making are better for most users.How do you assess / iterate on the prompts that power your apps? Any tips or tools that you'd recommend?

Really interesting to see how you go about researching video topics.
And also to see an example of how long it can take for videos, especially on a new channel, to gain traction. "300 views after 250 days... but then over the next 250 days the video had over 25,000 views" :mindblown:
This is a great question and something I've been thinking about as well.
IMHO, the most meaningful lever overall is improving representation in VC.
The most meaningful lever that I can act upon, as a male technical founder looking for a cofounder, is to look for women founders to partner with and women investors to join my cap table.
Recently, I did find and reach out to some folks on angels.vc - a women-led community of accredited angel investors.
Curious to hear your perspective.

How We Value Learning at TeachersPayTeachers
I agree with this particular sentiment but I don't believe that "deep work", as Cal Newport calls it, requires us to turn off social media or other forms of less-deep work altogether. Certainly, we must balance and control our usage of social media. Certainly, we must be more than just consumers and create tweets/posts/blogs/etc. These mediums can be great ways to give back to the community.
