In my first @SuperhumanMail email 2025 recap, apparently I sent almost 7,000 emails and marked done 50,000. Thus, I am running a massive deficit in communications. My most productive day was Sept 3.

Annoyed by pdf readers? I built a Chromium extension. Super lightweight (via pdfjslib). Press 's' to sign, 'a' to annotate, 'x' to select, 'm' to comment, 'h' to highlight, 'x' to strikethrough, 'r' for full screen reader mode. Can zoom in/zoom out/search. It does nothing else.

Something I didn't expect that we can see in @alldaytahelps data: study effort is so correlated with tests. Across courses, if use on Finals week is "1", relative use on midterm week is .7, and on non-exam weeks .05-.1. For courses with no exam, use always at the lower level. 1/3

This made my day
Little girl draws a sketch of her missing dad and the news anchors had no idea that the sketch looked exactly like her actual dad when shown the update …. 😂😂I’m crying I’m laughing so hard.
