Show HN: Ez – project-scoped command aliases for macOS
I built this because I didn't want to type longer project-specific commands. I work with a bunch of different tech stacks, so it's either a lot to remember or a lot of digging through various README files. Neither is great, so I wrote this little helper.ez stores aliases in a .ez_cli.json file per directory. The nice thing about this is that if you like you can have the same alias, e.g. ez...
Aliases are in my understanding in those cryptic terminal files, this is I suppose an attempt to make it more understandable with easy json structure and also make it shareable between team or machines.
But yeah, if you’re clever enough this probably doesn’t do anything you could achieve otherwise.

As many here, I'm a developer and I work across multiple tech stacks. At some point became bored with typing and remembering lengthy commands for building, testing etc. So I wrote a little command line tool that allows me to instead write ez build or ez test or similar regardless of the tech stack the repo is based on (not magically, but by storing them once).I added a bonus function where ez...
I think it's fine for entrepreneurs like them to work however much they want, but it's not cool to put that on employees, especially if they don't have any ownership in the company.
I don't buy the theory about poor relationships and long hours. I could see it going either way, especially if one was single and would otherwise spend their time at home watching tv or whatever.
Now, Musk said he is “down to 80 or 90” hours of work per week and “it’s pretty manageable.”

That's the quickest I could find. But yeah, I suppose 20-23h constantly long-term would not be doable. Point is though that many people can and do work even long-term the equavalent of 2 "full-time jobs".
Ask HN: Obsessing over Side Project Metrics
For the past year I've been pushing my side projects harder to make something more formidable out of them in the hopes of someday achieving either financial freedom or freedom to completely rely on them for income.But for a couple weeks now, I've started feeling down when I'm staring at all the metrics related to my projects. I'd obsessively look at my downloads, conversions, page views and...
I'd obsessively look at my downloads, conversions, page views and what have you.
This in no way was helping my work, but it was bringing me down because I was comparing with all the people who had "made it" already. Couple days I decided to stop that. For all those moments I'd rather read a book or play with the kids or listen to the wife. Feeling a bit better already to be honest, and interestingly somehow... free.
But I don't anything about this so I might be wrong.
It's fucking crazy with some people, but that's what it takes to get ahead of the competition.
Edit: Please note that I'm not advocating that anybody should do this, but just be aware that a lot of people are setting that level for themselves and in some cases for their subordinates.
