I'm just doing the good oral care practices and it's working. My kid is going through dentists visits with flying colors. Not to jinx it.

P.S. Working on a weekly newsletter for remote working parents. https://thursdaydigest.com/
I know, I know. Bear with me, I'm trying to get myself out there. <3

Seemed like a great company at the time. Maybe still is. If you find new details please feel free to share here.
P.S. Shameless self-plug here - building a weekly newsletter for remote working parent and one of my motivations is to have a piece of mind https://thursdaydigest.com/

Trying to do exactly this for my kids:
"Because these assemblages are found in saliva, targeting them early on could be a therapeutic strategy to prevent childhood tooth decay, says Koo. “If you block this binding or disrupt the assemblage before it arrives on the tooth and causes damage, that could be a preventive strategy.”"
mustafabisic1 | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: 10k hours rule to master anything. Could I switch career when I am 43?
Love this quote and it seems fitting here - "Many books believe they know how you should live. But each book disagrees with the next. In “How to Live”, each chapter believes it knows how you should live. And each chapter disagrees with the next."
mustafabisic1 | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: 10k hours rule to master anything. Could I switch career when I am 43?
It's appropriately called "There’s no speed limit". A lot of rules from there apply here as well.
It's about a guy who finished college in 2 years, if I remember correctly.
I've written it down on my white-board and remind myself about it everyday.
Thought you might find it useful.
P.S. I'm working on believing in myself and shamelessly plugging my weekly newsletter for remote working parents everywhere - check it out. https://thursdaydigest.com/
mustafabisic1 | 3 years ago | on: Searching for this for year = Intuitive and adaptable use of Pomodoro technique
It's called Llama Life and it organises your tasks in a logical way.
I've been personally searching for something like this for years and it's been in front of my nose the entire time.
It's been even submitted on HN before.
Give it a go and share feedback here.

From where this community is standing, this is a big opportunity to work on fun projects. Email development is specific a little bit, but it's greatly enjoyable for many.
Whether it's worth the risks, hmm, maybe, maybe not, I've seen a few great arguments in this thread.
Actually, from this thread, I feel this type of email I mentioned MIGHT be acceptable in a sense. The ones where you can do a functional thing from email, like accept a calendar event are a different story.
But we're a long way from having amp as a standard practice.

Are you having a bad day my man? Hope it gets better.
mustafabisic1 | 3 years ago | on: Gmail Dynamic Email (a.k.a. AMP for Email)
But it is what it is. The main problem with amp for emails is that email marketers don't have the time to make them. We're always excited when somebody get something out that's awesome, but it stays at that.
We're back at our day to day operations. Unfortunately amp is staying in the "Important, but not urgent" category for a few years now.
Look at this email for example: https://reallygoodemails.com/emails/discover-more-with-the-b...
mustafabisic1 | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: What HN post made you money?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32335165#32335750
Started a weekly newsletter for remote working parents, dabbled on it a bit and saw a great post on HN that my newsletter fit in fine. Definitely got the spike of motivation to make it happen. I'm in the email marketing game for 5 years and sent hundreds of millions of emails out, but the one I sent today must be in the top 3 emails that got me most excited.
Mentioned it in a comment and got a few subscribers.
I did lose a few karma points for the way I did it tho, but I was rusty with my HN commenting skills (working on it)

I'd definitely love to hear out your process of creating these.
P.S. I created a resource for remote-working parents. It's a weekly newsletter for now, but who knows, I might have enough value one day to do what you did here.
