I'm pretty sure you've already built a bot to comment on every single article I publish, haven't you? :D

Okaaaay guys, let's start another challenge (!): let's try to comment on every article published by @pjeziorowski ! To show our support.
Btw that's a good idea to focus on quality and to have your blog repos public.

ha, I just recently listened to a blink where the author suggested exactly what you're writing. Consider me your worst enemy for the next 365 days, if I find the time, I'll write an article tracker to hunt you down >:)

If I get hit by your gen, I'd like you to do a donation to the Wikimedia foundation tho. Perhaps for the next challenge, you could go 50 / 50 between $ and donation for one of the user's favorite charity as well?

Much success and may the odds ever be in your favor.

Do you remember what was the name of the book from Blinkist?

Wow what a commitment!! I publish weekly on my blog and that's already more than enough for me..

I think it's awesome you're looking for accountability. I'm currently building up a community for developers that will be focused on creating an environment where members can be held accountable for goals they set for themselves. So what you're doing is fascinating to me and I will check back once a while.
Hope it goes well for you :)

How one could join the community you're building or just take a look at what you guys are working on? It sounds great :)

This post is ~500 words - excited to see how this goes! Word count vs article count does seem like a better metric for this.

Yeah, definitely word count seems like a better metric. I'm also excited to see what's gonna happen haha! I can already tell that it's quite exciting from my POV and the risk of losing money already pushed me to write today (I wouldn't publish anything without the challenge).

I'm actually very curious about how this will go, especially since it takes me quite a bit to put together a consistent article/presentation/demo. I might learn a thing or two about it. good luck!
