while²

# while²

A recurring task reminder for iOS. Cron jobs, for humans.

## Overview

AI is amazing. What a time.

And yet, I find myself staring at the monitor all day. I thought work would shrink — instead, I'm busier than ever, babysitting the AI agents I run in parallel. Even in bed, I can't put the phone down — firing /rc commands.

Meanwhile, life tasks slip quietly to the back. I cut my hair only after it's overgrown. I do laundry only when there's nothing left to wear. The toothbrush... when did I last swap it?

It hit me: if AI runs my work, why not let a program run my life? Hoping this idea resonates with as many people as possible.
