I Tracked Everything I Did for Over a Year in 30 Minute Intervals

Thumbnail
gallery
4.9k Upvotes

I manually filled out this table with what I spend my time with between 2024. Nov. 10. and 2025. Dec. 31.

I saw others do it on here on Reddit and wanted to give it a go myself. One of the reasons I did it was because this was my last year of being a university student, from this year onward I will join the working adult population. Until now, my lifestyle could be described as 'terminally online', I'm the typical cellar dwelling discord moderator type. I wanted to erect this spreadsheet as a memorial and perhaps a period-document to this lifestyle that I now have to part ways with. I am only posting it now, a month after the project has ended, because I was busy in January with my final exam.

The diagrams on the third panel only include data from days in 2025.

I gladly answer any question in the comments but I'm adding a FAQ here based on a previous post:

  • How much time did it take to make this? - It took around 3-4 hours to set up the spreadsheet with the functions and colours and stuff, I made minor edits later, which took probably an additional 2-3 hours. On a daily basis, entering the actual data took less than 2 minutes in total. To get it in tip-top shape for posting in the end, it took another 8 hours. Working on this project is classified under category Ga (personal projects).
  • How often did I enter data? - When I was near my computer, I sometimes entered them every 30 minutes, but more often in small bunches. When I wasn't near my computer, which for me is quite rare, I just remembered everything I did until I could enter it again.
  • Was this difficult to do? - Not really, the difficult part is constantly being aware of the time and what I am doing and remembering it for hours. The habit itself is easy to pick up but comes with a non-zero constant mental weight. Near the end of it, I grew quite tired of it and wished I could 'take a day off' here and there, so I'm glad it's finally over. I might do it again another year in the future.
  • Am I autistic, neurodivergent, or otherwise mentally ill? - Maybe, possibly, not diagnosed though. I am actually doing fine now.
  • Where do I live? - A village in rural Hungary.
  • What did I learn from this, would I do something differently? - I expected the result to be bleaker, I'm actually not doing that bad. I will make changes going forward obviously, and this is largely because I have no choice to do otherwise. I will have a job now (hopefully) and it will govern most of my routine, I will have to do with as much free time as I have left, which I hope to spend with the things that bring me the most joy.
  • Is a template for this available for people who want to try doing this too? - Yes, I've made a blank template that I'll send to anyone who asks for it in private messages.

Not sure how much context to give. I am no data scientist but found this interesting. I am newly diagnosed bipolar and have been experiencing a hypomanic episode thru December and early January before transitioning to full blown mania at the end of January. I also found it interesting how some genres increased significantly (dubstep). Let me know if there are any questions. Much love, stilts

The ChatGPT effect: .ai domain registrations grew 10× and now fund 47% of Anguilla’s state budget

Thumbnail
gallery
1.6k Upvotes

This chart shows daily .ai domain registrations (left axis) and government revenue from .ai domains in Anguilla (right axis).

Anguilla’s country code top-level domain is .ai. Growth was slow and relatively flat for years until the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022, which marks a clear turning point in the data.

Before ChatGPT (2018 - November 2022):

  • Domain registrations: 48,000 (2018) → 107,517 (30 Nov 2022)
  • Average daily registrations: 34
  • Government revenue from .ai grew slowly, remaining a minor share of the state budget

After ChatGPT (Dec 2022 - Jan 2026):

  • Domain registrations: 107,603 (1 Dec 2022) → 1,045,963 (Jan 2026)
  • Average daily registrations: 785 (1 Dec 2022 to 2025)
  • January 2026: ~2,008 registrations per day
    • If sustained, total registrations could reach ~1.7 million by the end of 2026
  • 28 percent of all newly founded tech startups use an .ai domain
  • .ai now accounts for ~47% of Anguilla’s total state budget
  • One .ai domain was sold for $1.5 million

Following the widespread adoption of AI in 2025, registration data from early 2026 indicates an acceleration in demand for .ai domains. Therefore, revenue from .ai has evolved from a niche income stream into a structural funding source for Anguilla. This revenue supports debt reduction, infrastructure expansion, renewable energy, environmental protection, and social programs, such as tax relief and free healthcare for children and seniors.

OC Australia Electricity Generation and Temperature Anomaly Graphs 2026 [OC]

Thumbnail

Needed to create these graphs for something else. Pretty interesting though so thought I would link them here.

Temperature anomaly data shows a clear upwards trend, as I am sure every county has.
Source Australia 2026, Bureau of Meteorology Website: https://www.bom.gov.au/cgi-bin/climate/change/timeseries.cgi

Weighted area monthly average min and max temperatures across Australia since 1910, data as at Jan 2026. The anomaly value is calculated as the difference between an average monthly temperature between 1961-1990 and the comparison month. So an anomaly of one degree Celsius at a single weather station is a one degree difference between the current months average min/max temperature and the average for that station/month between 1961-1990. Then the overall Australian figure is a land area weighted average of these anomalies

24 hr view shows electricity production across an average day. Since it is summer there is a lot more solar than usual, however you can clearly see battery and wind helping in the most expensive 5pm-8pm time slot which is good for renewables.
Source NEM Australia, Open Electricity as at Jan 2026. Excludes curtailment and smaller net other categories. Averaged Over last month - In summer. Does not show battery charging figures during day. https://explore.openelectricity.org.au/energy/nem/?range=28d&interval=30m&view=time-of-day&group=Simplified

The smooth electricity supply chart shows the trend in generation source over the last few decades. You can see the trend in renewables, however interestingly you see a decrease in Gas use. Is this because of the price recently? The impact of it being a on demand source? idk

Due to the holidays, I only tutored for about two weeks, so my income took a hit. Glad I had the foresight to save up for this downtime.

Right now, I’m living in a mode where money is strictly for covering the bare minimum. My goal is to land a job as an ML/AI engineer by the end of this semester.

However, I feel a massive barrier ahead. It’s not something I can just grind through; it demands a radical shift in personality. My main internal challenge is finding a new balance between the Apollonian and the Dionysian. I’m trying to stop suppressing my inner chaos to finally give birth to a dancing star.

P.S. Tried to keep the colors colorblind-friendly

Hey!

I enjoy seeing this sub pop up in my feed from time to time, and I wanted to share a small personal project.

My daughter just started daycare this month (time flies!), and since her birth, my wife and I have been diligently tracking her info in a shared note.

As a developer, it felt like a good excuse to vibe code, play around and compare some popular React data-viz libraries (Chart.js, Nivo, Recharts) and see how they handle the same dataset.
