Not in a dramatic burnout way, just in the quiet I ve been staring at the screen for too long way. Most break reminder apps I tried felt too cold or too mechanical.

One question: "Based on this, who is most likely to overtake us in the next 6 months? Show your work. Use the data. Don't summarize ... ... Give me the numbers." The answer changed how I think about competition. The dataset: 5 competitors
