7 Years and 21 Self-Improvement Experiments: Where They All Are Today

www.raptitude.com/2015/12/7-years-experiments

Experiment 5

Goal: Go 21 straight days without complaining or uttering non-constructive criticism. (If I catch myself doing it, I must start again at day zero.)

This was inspired by Will Bowen’s book A Complaint Free World, in which he claims that if you stop pronouncing your negative thoughts, you stop having those kinds of thoughts, and that if everyone did this the world would change completely.

What happened: It took 55 days to get 21 complaint-free days in a row, but I did it. This experiment really does teach you not to complain, and I think everyone should do it once in their lives. But it didn’t create much of an inner change. My negative thoughts were unaffected, I just got more polite about whether to pass them on to others. Complaining can even be a worthwhile form of bonding, as I learned while I was working a painful manual labor job with new friends, and could never join in on the lighthearted griping. Still, it’s better to never complain than to complain freely.

Where I am with it today: Even though the exercise didn’t eliminate internal negativity like the book promised, the experiment left me much more conscious about expressing needless negativity, and I am pretty good at keeping it to myself most of the time. I’m also more patient with others when they’re complaining. This is one experiment I would recommend to almost anybody.

Why You're Always Right

www.raptitude.com/2026/02/why-youre-always-right

The worst hobby

Bad things happen when you combine the self-affirming nature of beliefs with a habit of consuming lots of morally-charged content.

Many people make a daily routine of consuming large quantities of highly partisan content about “what’s going on” in “the” “world.” Enthusiasts of this hobby call it “staying informed,” and insist it isn’t just a personal habit but a civic duty.

This content consists of new beliefs (“news” for short) about what happened today or yesterday, presented with an authoritative tone and little moral ambiguity. They identify clear villains and clear implications. They often give instructions from hand-selected experts on how smart people should think about this.

  • All parts are implemented.

  • Industry-standard tools and frameworks are used.

  • The code is split into small, readable functions.

  • Variables have descriptive names.

  • Complex parts have comments.

  • Errors are handled, error messages are easy to follow.

  • Source files are organized reasonably.

  • The web interface looks nice.

sysblok.ru/blog/gorkij-urok-abbyy-kak-lingvisty-proigrali-poslednjuju-bitvu-za-nlp

Закат ABBYY — это фиксация проигрыша последней битвы лингвистов за автоматическую обработку языка. Мир Data Science победил. Главный редактор «Системного Блока» Даниил Скоринкин, работавший ABBYY в 2013–2017, подводит итоги и пытается сформулировать уроки из этой истории, начало которой — еще в 1990-х годах. С мемасами и метафорами.

Don't Aim for Quality, Aim for Speed

When project scope is perfectly decomposed and management rules are clear and strict, speed of delivery is the virtue, not the quality.

Часовые пояса и календарь в распределённой команде

ilyabirman.ru/meanwhile/all/timezones-and-calendar

Время от времени читаю, что люди страдают из-за разных часовых поясов в команде и с клиентами, путаются во встречах и вообще не понимают, как вести календарь.

Учу. Включите поддержку часовых поясов в календаре, если вдруг вы этого почему-то не сделали.

My note-taking process

rubber-duck-typing.com/posts/2023-01-19-note-taking.html

Игорь рассказывает, как делает заметки.

Вложенные теги не нужны

Do not try to create a hierarchy (taxonomy) for your notes. It is not scalable and only works for narrow domain. Prefer tags.

Не понимал, зачем раскрашивать буквы в книжках, но Игорь пишет, что это полезно, когда есть комментарии

It is not useful to highlight without commenting. Writing summary is mandatory, highlighting is optional 1.
