Amplenote CEO, Alloy.dev CEO, but mostly a programmer that loves the projects he gets to work on. Big into getting things done.

Nothing could delight me more than to find someone to take the baton on my fledgling efforts to build a Readwise integration via our API. I've got the ball rolling, but since I'm not a daily Readwise user myself, it's hard to conjure the willpower to choose that task over others. Surely there is an Amplenote user out there who has some programming chops and uses Readwise?

6,458 notes, 5,723 tasks 😰

1. Work on projects like Amplenote and GitClear that are intrinsically fascinating since they solve pain points in my daily life
2. Long gestation period between idea origination and accumulation of Task Score lets me dismiss most ideas before I bother to work on them
3. Envision the world in which the project is complete, and experience (in my mind's eye) how much more I like that world vs. this one
3.5. When there's only a little time to get something done, do the worst thing on the todo list

1. Not completed, but: my #1 long-term goal from past 14 years has been to create tools that afford leverage to users. Feels like we hit our stride on this one since launching Amplenote!
2. Created a software dev metric ("Line Impact") to help myself calibrate the efficacy of my dev efforts
3. Completed four straight annual marathons before pandemic put the kabosh on that goal
