• Word Count Accountability/Writing App??

  There's 4thewords, where they gamify writing. I've not tried it but it looks interesting. Source: over 3 years ago

• Executive Dysfunction

  Yes, I'm the same way. Two things have helped me. 1. Using the Pomodoro technique. You can find timers online and they tick while you are doing whatever, which I find helps me stay on track. I do 30 minutes with 5 minutes break. 2. 4thewords.com is a really cool gamification system for writers. You basically fight monsters while you're writing. It's amazing how well it keeps you on track! Also, there are some... Source: over 3 years ago

• Where you write?

  I use 4thewords.com with Scrivener for organisation and notes, but it really depends on what works for you. I like the gamification of 4thewords because it helps me focus, other people prefer options where they can completely turn off their wifi for fewer distractions. There are people who still write entirely by hand for their first drafts because it helps turn off their inner editor. Try a few options and see... Source: over 3 years ago

• Hello, I'm Celia Lake. I write cosy historical fantasy romances. Ask Me Anything today!

  My word count went up substantially when I stopped commuting every day in March of 2020. These days I'm in the office 2-3 days a week, but I've kept the words up, and average about 2K a day (though there are days I do a lot less and some I do more). I draft on 4theWords, so there is a bit of gamification there - can I get through this word battle to defeat this monster, etc. Source: over 3 years ago

• Campfire Writing?

  I use 4TheWords more often than some of the other ones lately, and it's sorta fun too. They've got a thirty day trial and plenty of events that give you additional time for free (especially NaNo). Also worth a check if some of the other software doesn't tickle your fancy. Source: over 3 years ago

• Kids-friendly project: Building your Chatbot Web Application using LLM

  We will use VScode workspace running on Gitpod as an IDE, you can use VScode on your local machine but you need to skip steps or change some details related to Gitpod.

• Build a Web3 Movie Streaming dApp using NextJs, Tailwind, and Sia Renterd: Part One

  Next, we need to install Docker by downloading it from the official website if you haven't already. Alternatively, use a free online platform like Gitpod or a VPS to run a Docker instance, if possible. Otherwise, install it on your local computer. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• Effect 3.0

  If you prefer instead to have a look at a fully working & effect-native app we've prepared a demo cli app that you can directly open in Gitpod or locally (if you prefer), you'll need to provide an OpenAI API Key in order to integrate with the OpenAI API. The demo app allows you to train a model via embeddings from a set of files and then allows you to prompt the trained model with questions. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
