      📢 v1.114 is rolling out!

Today, we're expanding access to the Live Now beta to everyone. 

This experimental feature lets you add a temporary LIVE badge to your avatar, helping others discover that you're currently live-streaming on Twitch. They can click it to land directly on your stream page.

      There’s a bittersweet feeling with AI tooling. I’m more productive than ever, but I can’t remember the last time I considered myself in flow state.

      A contact of mine's wife has benefitted from my complaint about how (peri)menopause can make histamines in the body go nuts, likely being the problem I currently have, being allergic to who-knows-what all year round.

She has come off HRT and started taking antihistamines and is feeling much better.
