I think if you're working 10-15 hours a week and spending the extra time with your family and doing things that are fulfilling to you that's great.

But the strategies mentioned to find more meaningful work are probably more useful if you're doing 10-15 hours of real work a week and then spending the remaining hours sitting in front of your computer browsing YouTube and doing nothing of value while pretending to be at work. If you have to pretend to be at work, then you can at least fill that time at the computer with something productive.

This is super cool. I love the simple interface. One thing I don't really get is the 48h and 7d revenue change. It doesn't really seem useful to track revenue so granularly as it's just capturing day-to-day fluctuations. I would personally be more interested in seeing 1mo, 6mo, 1yr revenue change. I'm guessing though that you only have data points as far back as you started working on this project.

Also what source is providing revenue data that is updated as frequently as every 48h?

I used to be a cigarette smoker who went to juuling and eventually "quit" (I still cave to a few puffs of e-cigs every month or so when I'm with someone that has one).

I agree if you have no intention to quit, juuling is much safer than continuing to inhale smoke.

But you might want to be careful using it as a smoking cessation tool. I smoked about 7 cigarettes a day but after I picked up juuling the sheer convenience of not having to go outside, being able to use it in bed, etc. got me up to 1-2 pods (equivalent to 1-2 packs of cigarettes) per day in nicotine consumption.

My lungs caught a break by vaping but my nicotine addiction was uncontrollable. I eventually used nicotine gum to quit and it was absolute hell. I suspect it would have been much easier if I wasn't so used to a constant stream of nicotine 24/7.

Anecdotal, but all my friends juul'd in university (some quit some still use it daily). Probably about 30% of them at some point tried to quit juuling by smoking cigarettes instead thinking that the bad taste would deter them for smoking and therefore cause them to consume less nicotine overall. Needless to say that did not work and a few of them now use both cigarettes and juuls.
