The "Features" page is the worst performing web page I have seen in a long time. Loading 14+ MB worth of images, spending over 11 seconds on loading fonts, loading the same script multiple times. All that for just a static web page with some video embeds and a comment section is quite astounding to be honest. Makes me not want to check out their product.


That's actually hilarious, I thought "it can't be that bad" but its really just a couple video embeds and it took ages to load.


Even after reading your comment I thought this must be hyperbolic. That load was atrocious.


Yup, another way to think about it is that it’s a difference of 16h, not 8h. You work 8h less and gain 8h of free time.


Or you work 8h less and gain 24 of "contiguous hours that you control" per week.


Yes, the disproportionately huge increase in contiguous time off is the big win in my book.


We could just work Monday and Tuesday with a 40 hour marathon each week fueled by coffee, donuts and an occasional pizza.


Well... :D You can't add the gained time twice. It is like saying, instead of spending 20 USD on coffee, you spend 15 USD. You didn't gain 10 bucks, you are still left with only five more than you would have otherwise.


Leisure hours in a 5-day work week: 72 (8 hours per day and 16 on weekends)

Work hours in a 5-day work week: 40

Difference: 32 hours

Leisure hours in a 4-day work week: 80

Work hours in a 4-day work week: 32

Difference: 48 hours


That’s the diffence. You had 72 hours before, now you have 80 hours of leisure time. It’s 8 hours more of leisure time.


GP - "another way to think about it is that it’s a difference of 16h"

You - "That’s the diffence."


In my reply I said the effective gain is 8 hours.

No matter what kind of math you do, working one day less doesn’t give you two extra days off.


Kickstart.nvim [1] is a good starting point. One big Lua file which gets you 90% there and shows what’s possible while making it easy to change/add stuff and getting started doing your own config.

Exactly what I was looking for, much appreciated!
