• Fellow HSP entrepreneurs, how do you manage your energy and stress?

  I force clients who want to talk to me to book a call. I use cal.com (free) and my Google Calendar (which its linked to) only allows calls on specific days/times. I have a few "Call Blocks" where they can book. That let's me do calls in a small section of my week, with ample downtime to recover the rest of the week. I'm still learning how many calls a day I can handle. Currently anything more than 2 is too much. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: What are some well-designed websites?

  Modern at first sight, but quickly dull the senses. Passable for their supreme usability (the Vercel dashboard works better on mobile than many websites on desktop). On the bottom right corners are the grandiloquent, the pompous, the extravagant. See them on Awwwards. Somehow, I feel a sizeable of Web3 websites fall into this, though I have only superficial exposure to them, with their overuse of transitions and... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Does anyone self-host CE of cal.com and successfully enable the stripe feature ? there are some bugs in the the issue tab of it.

  Yes, I feel the same way. I am disappointed with cal.com , to be honest. It's not really suitable for real-world projects, even though it claims to be an open-source project. Soon enough, you'll be blocked or forced to use the commercial license for $99 per month. I think their product is misleading because they claim to be open source, but it's only partially true. To me, it seems like a lie to generate hype! Source: almost 2 years ago
