My 10-month experiment with founders from my quiet Sunday notes

Part of me wanted the fancy version with all the tools. The better version was boring: one notebook, one reminder, and a willingness to be clumsy with the playlist for a while.

Would love to hear how other people handle this. I am especially curious about the version that works on a tired weekday, not just on an ideal Sunday.

I tried this in Jakarta with a friend and we both noticed the same thing: the social part mattered more than the perfect plan.

I am skeptical. The idea sounds good, but the maintenance cost is real. It reminds me of a very specific conversation near a coworking table. Optionality is underrated.
