Day 370

Asim Akhtar,
Back


[NOTE: I wrote this thinking it was day 365, so...]


18:06 PM


This is supposed to be a special day


Maybe you'll look back on this when searching "I wonder where Asim was at at year 1"


The answer:


Still not launched AtOnce, the first company




Anyway


So today I've finished the order templates


There's a slight issue if you go past ~1000 'quick links' etc


I've made it future proof so if I need to fix it in the future I can without restructuring the database entirely, but for now I haven't fixed it since it's HIGHLY unlikely people have 1000+ help articles



Big software companies might have a lot of help articles, but I sincerely doubt they'll have more than 500 FOR NOW


If they do have more, then I can fix it as and when necessary




You can delete the stuff


But if you have nested articles, e.g. FAQ >> Product 1 >> Sizing >> Small >> Article 1, then there's an issue


Because we have a 1MB limit on the 'quick links' set by our database thing



Normally our solution is to create more documents so we can spread it out


But since we have nested articles right



Basically


If each 'main' category, e.g. FAQ is fine


then



you know what no one gives a shit


I'll fix it later if necessary


Got to figure out billing or something now




18:38 PM


The reason I took so long was quite simple:


My 1st iteration had to be as good, if not - better - than their 100th iteration



And I believe it is


So now


What does my 10th iteration look like?



I have a rough sketch in my mind


But first we setup + launch



21:21 PM


Lol 10% of stripe payouts will be reserved


Lucky for me I have 97% margins



Only issue will be if they close the account. Thus I must make money in time to prevent disputes etc.



21:56 PM


Still setting up stripe


Will have to do that tomorrow along with other stuffz



See you then


hopefully


if I



I've gotta stop saying that


Might create some weird nocebo effect


I'm grateful for everything that I have


And I hope to live as long as I can


I am grateful for each day



I would like to live as long as possible


If I die, that would be unfortunate


But every human in history (that I know of) has died


So it's likely that I'll also die



There are medical advances


Look yeah



One step at a time



For now, I'll stop thinking about death


Assume that all 'future forecasting' and so forth is done with the assumption that I could die, and that God can give/take as God pleases.



First things first, I need to get money. Then we'll fix up our nutrition etc etc... and then do some lifestyle/health improvements/slight delay aging supplements


Then we can assist medical advancements in that and other areas since very few as far as I know are doing anything about it...


Among other things



One step at a time



So We focus on building, life, and the extension of life -- in that order


Catch ya later
