Thanks for the thorough response. That makes sense to not reinvent the wheel for syncing and keeping things simple. And yeah, I suppose using the same Task Pony instance would work for sharing.
Thanks again for making something useful and free for the world.
It looks nice. I like the clean interfaces. I am slowly working toward self hosting and found it surprising difficult to find a task organizer as well. One big hurdle is having something that can also sync with my wife’s list, such as a grocery list, so we don’t both buy the food item.
I don’t know much about coding. Does a syncable list require a lot of time and effort? Is that something you would consider adding eventually?

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Are people with High functioning autism allowed to become police officers?
71·1 month agoFor what it’s worth, I know someone personally that is a genuinely kind person and a local police officer. He told me at some point that he had been diagnosed with Aspergers and I was a bit surprised. He might be an outliner or something, but he does a better job of being fair than most of the typical police encounters that I know of.

3·2 months agoThanks for the suggestion. It looks like the credit unions around me do have similar or a slight bit better rates. And I do like the idea of keeping my money more locally.
That’s a really interesting idea. That makes me think it would even be better in the sense that the data would be protected rather than risk a cloud service going out of business or changed their storage location. Not that that is a likely scenario but still.

2·6 months agoMaybe in adults, but I’m not so sure for early development. This topic was discussed on The Happiest Labs with Dr Laurie Santos and was pretty interesting. The psychologist she brought on explained how mammals need play as part of practicing socialization and is crucial for brain development.
The “play-based childhood” has shifted more toward a “device-based childhood” and the change is noticeable in many children’s self image and executive functioning. Like this article mentions, the early access to social media seems to be the biggest contributor lowering self worth due to constant comparison.












In his book “Why We Sleep,” Mathew Walker explained that Alzheimer’s detection via EEG monitoring during sleep was a major reason he decided to switch to studying sleep 20 years ago. He was trying to originally study diseases like Alzheimer’s and found that there was not much information on why identification on EEG was detectable before symptoms occurred, such as forgetting items’s locations.
I wonder if this is along the same lines, like a wider variety of EEG signal detection, clearer or more accurate diagnosis, or something entirely different. It looks like subjects were still awake but in a restful state, so maybe testing also does not require as much time as a full sleep study.
