Back from tennis where I had to sweep the court with this cute contraption. It needs a good name and I'm not happy with my first ideas which are Broomzilla and The Sweeping Committee.
So I need your help.
Over the last year I've also found that supplementation of vitamin d, omega 3, and operating a chainsaw have been very helpful - but I think it's mostly the running.
đź§Ş Makes me want to try to put a sort of Dyson tower fan face down on the leg side/s as an air curtain. Could solve the blankets-are-usually-longer-than-wide problem too.

@fluffy haha, yeah the ensconcement is real
@fluffy I have a nice little makeshift kotatsu desk. Got 300W 120V mountable unit on Amazon from Asia then found a suitable shape for regular height chair and a twin & king wool washable (hypoallergenic) blanket to insulate it. Ikea power sensor to light when it is on. Not perfectly ideal for hands except that heating most of your body heats them too to a significant extent.

It looks as though after 4-5 months the page has been updated, but if you want to see the image in situ still then the way back machine has you covered.

@tylersi Also off the top of my head, not-code-oriented: lots of room for product feedback, user research, and future design critiques now that we're almost shipping Steve's version 1.0 .

The target audience is coaches which maybe have some similar backgrounds to you.

@tylersi yep yep, all welcome, we've had guests from other similar efforts several times.
