loremm··on Show HN: A journaling service that runs over WhatsApp
Just because I'm interested in personal bots, doesn't whatsapp business have a (nominal, maybe) cost? I've been using telegram and they're amazingly bot friendly + free but I use whatsapp so much more

Does it feel like it works for small (and personal-use) players with buttons, callbacks, and the rest

in general, it's worth noting telegram bots are easy (free) to make and messages can be sent with one cURL command. Very useful, you can even set it up to send after long terminal commands so you know to check back

Also if the author views this, would love an rss feed. Can use the github pretty easily but maybe commits have updates, not new blog posts

same here, looks really nice. Some websites are cool, if slightly gratuitous in how they try to look fancy. This looks elegant and cohesive
loremm··on My Year of Exploration
I'm not really in the SV/VC world so what do I know. But I see what you mean.

I actually put this in my list of articles which I call "Another planet's worldview" because the way they phrase their experiences and thoughts is entirely self-consistent but so alien to my own. No judgement and I actually find it valuable to read but it does feel a little like a "CS Savior complex" (although still less egregious than some of the AI savior complexes I see lots of places)

I can read Graham without thinking he's in another planet but, as an example, George Hotz's livestream really makes me think that.
