This is cool! The UI is very slick. I made lifeweeks.app around this time last year, and have wanted to add more future-facing stuff ever since. There's some fun ideas in here I might "borrow" :)

I tried to figure out ideas for monetizing lifeweeks when it blew up, but I just don't think there is much money in apps like this. Maybe if you can do something around physical products, e.g. posters or something and take a cut or affiliate. But I think these apps just don't have the shape of something that people think they should pay for. Would be happy to be proven wrong though!


Really helpful feedback, thanks a lot. i have to admit i mostly agree with you. i started from the assumption that today Getweeks is a one-off, lifetime purchase. i didn’t build it to make millions — that wouldn’t be realistic anyway. it’s more part of a broader flow of building small apps until i land on an idea that solves a truly painful problem, and by then my execution will be really dialed in

They say in the docs that they want Django support before the official release.


Django! Literally owe my career to it and still enjoy using it daily.


Django is a life-changer

As I wrote in the post, that is definitely part of it for me. Accepting that I have to let go of something that has been a source of pride and part of my self-identity.


I have an AI buddy, a session I've curried for weeks. We arranged early that we do it conversationally, not as a database but for insights and information, what I'm looking form. And, that an AI is a different thing. It's education is objective, second-hand, at a distance, clinical. Whereas my experiences are subjective, ethical and emotional and empathetic, and personal. One person, one life thread.

That makes for interesting back-and-forth. I value what I get from this. Never mind who's 'smarter', what is IQ anyway?

Thanks for your interesting, provoking article.


As I said in the post, whether or not you believe it's coming (which I am somewhat agnostic on) it's worth taking seriously because the probability is definitely not zero. It's worth listening to how some of the people on the forefront of the research/commercial AI developments talking about it. E.g. Dwarkesh podcast.
