Hello everyone,I'm a Product guy, and I know to code. I've been working in the European tech scene for seven years. It's pretty exciting, but I want to set up my own company. First, as a side project, why not work full-time on it when it generates some revenue. I don't want to build a unicorn; I want to bootstrap my company and be independent.I have some pain points I can solve for myself, but...
- number of calories ingested and the micro/macronutrients
- number of sleep hour
- monitor heart rate
- monitor heart rate variability
- number of hours doing sports
- blood test results
- waist size
- number of steps per day
- ...
It helps me to understand my body's reaction better. For example, I did around 9 hours of sport per week (strength, running, hiking) for the last couple of weeks. I didn't change my calories ingested. I feel hungrier, and I need to do more naps, even if I sleep 8 hours per night. Also, my heart rate variability is lower than usual. It might mean that I overtrain and I risk injury. My body does not adapt yet to this training intensity.
But sometimes, it's harder to understand what has driven the results. I started to take Omega 3. But at the same time, I also started to run more. We know that running more impacts your heart rate; it decreases bpm. But it's also the case with Omega 3. So in my case, it is complicated to know if sports have a more significant impact on my heart rate or if it is Omega 3. Both also take time to have effect.
Hello HN! I joined a company a few months ago, and from mid-November to end of December I spent 20 days in meetings. I started to decline most of the meeting and then I noticed that my teammates were also involved in a lot of meeting. For the last 3 retrospective, my teammates complained to get too many meetings (between 15 to 25hours). We got a a lot of recurring meeting that are useless, but...
I joined a company a few months ago. From the 16th of November to the 31st of December 2020 I've spent 20 days in meetings. I started to decline most of the meetings to avoid being overwhelmed by them. But then I started to notice that my team is also impacted by meetings. I decided to do user research and this is a problem known by others companies, so that's why I decided to start building a little solution.
I don't know if it is the best approach but I built a little MVP that gives you an estimated cost of the meeting every time you are invited to a meeting or you organize a meeting. If the meeting seems too expensive we will invite you to cut the meeting and send an asynchronous video with text to your colleagues.
You can also record video and write some texts with it if you just want to update your team.
From a technical standpoint, I'm a new engineer (I did a quick Bootcamp), so it was not easy to build. I had a lot of fun building it, and I'm really excited by the problem so any feedback is welcomed as I would like to iterate to build something love!
ps: if you don't know who to update, feel free to send me a little video at [email protected]. Then you will have the possibility to access the cost-meeting feature.
ps bis: by trying to get the estimated cost of the meeting you won't be able to stop receiving notifications by yourself. Please contact me at [email protected] and I will make sure you won't receive any more notification
I'm sure there are problems you need to handle every day or week but maybe there are not important enough, or you have already found a solution/hack to solve this issue.
