This is how I cured my social media addiction. I turned my iPhone into pure utility device by uninstalling all the entertainment apps. I only allow music and podcasts as those don’t require my active attention. Then I have an iPad mini at h

I used to explore similar stuff and prototyped something I call “Vanilla Components” but then in the end I fell in love with Web Components and quit React (and all other frameworks).

I see it like this: after I have seen some colors and a ball I can then imagine a ball in any of those colors. In other words, everything I have experienced and memorized becomes this pool of resources I can imagine from. More I have seen,
