Me trying to sound professional in English emails vs how I actually talk
Every single time. "Dear Sir/Madam, I hope this email finds you well" when I really mean "yo, quick question."
u/polyglot_painThe worst part is re-reading it 5 times and still not knowing if it sounds weird.
u/lost_in_translationGoogle Translate gave me "I am desiring to inform you" once. Never again.

That ramen spot in Shimokitazawa is incredible. Went there last month because of this video!

As a local, I'm impressed you found these places. Most tourists miss all of them.

冷知識:不一定要天天公開進度才會成功。有時候先埋頭做、安靜上線,讓產品自己說話更有效。
同意。一直發進度其實很耗能,反而影響節奏。
也不一定,曝光確實能帶來客戶,還是要看策略。

Stop overthinking your landing page. Ship it ugly, see if anyone cares, then make it pretty. Perfection is procrastination in disguise.
@sahilbloom this is exactly why most people never launch. they confuse "ready" with "perfect."
@katelyn_biz learned this the hard way. my first $10k product had a Notion landing page.

Might be a subject line vs. CTA mismatch. People open but don't click — the promise doesn't match the landing.

Agreed. Let's A/B test two CTA variants this week. I can set it up by EOD.

In-Place, Instant

No tab switching. No copy-paste dance. Hit the hotkey and the text transforms right in your input box.

100% Local

Runs on your machine. Your messages never touch a server. No API keys, no cloud, no data leaks.

AI, Not Dictionary

Powered by local LLMs. Gets idioms, slang, and context right. No more "Google Translate energy."
