After a couple of eventful weeks, things are finally slowing down for the holidays.

• Queen Raae’s let-it-snow script
• Userlist’s Conversion Goals feature

Things have been pretty busy on the product side for Benedikt and the Userlist team: launching the Conversion Goals feature, releasing new workflow node types, and more. And after working around a hard problem for quite a while, the team has finally refactored how the platform works with conditions.

With Webflow cutting their membership feature in 12 months, Benedicte is planning to make some good demos that would hopefully attract former Webflow customers. And despite being a bit nervous about the templates being filled up correctly, she successfully pushed the payment reminders for Whee customers. On the fun side of things, she and James applied a script to the Outseta website so it’s snowing for the holiday season.

Benedicte and Benedikt share life and work updates, and some debugging horror stories.

Benedicte and her Pirate family have been low key sick all month. Despite feeling under the weather, they were able to bake and pack more than 100 cookies for the Christmas Market at school. She finished her Xano + Outseta (XO) Vanilla Demo for Outseta, and is doing price adjustments for Whee.

Benedikt feels recharged from his birthday vacation last weekend. On the work front, they recently shipped improvements on how they do condition on Userlist, making it possible to filter users by companies that are within the segment.

They also talk about some debugging horror stories, token exchanges, and more.

To cope with the stressful events in the world, Benedikt went into productive mode these past week. They’ve made great progress with their company triggers, built some command line tools to help with debugging workflows, and more.

Benedicte recently attended a startup program by Telia with the Whee team. She’s also been playing around with Xano and met someone who’s currently using the tool for a large real estate business.

Benedikt and Benedicte talk about coping with the overcast, minimizing the bus factor, AI, and more.

• Benedicte makes the Twitter-viral butter chicken recipe

With only two months left in the year, Benedicte is crushing her quarterly goal: to have an enjoyable everyday life. At Whee, she’s pushing the boundaries of their Make plan, and will be testing out a tool for their customer SMS.

Benedikt and the Userlist team are making good progress with the company triggers feature. While there’s still a long way to go, Benedikt shares that they’ve now got a rough idea of how they can streamline this feature with everything else.

Benedikt comes back from MicroConf. Benedicte returns from their fall vacation.

• Benedicte and tech are in a situationship

Benedikt is feeling a bit drained after having an eventful time at MicroConf. While the conference itself was great, he experienced interesting things along the way: from getting flights cancelled to being in the same hotel with a world leader.

Benedicte and her Pirate family spent a nice fall vacation on a boat with Captain Ola’s friend. But with the Framer Plugin launch happening in the middle of the vacation, she had to do some last minute changes because of a Framer API change. Benedicte also shares their summer plans for next year.

Benedikt and Benedicte talk about cache busting, if we really need an app for everything, and more.

Benedicte and Benedikt talk about how taking breaks actually help your projects, and more.

• The power of breaks, a story in three parts
• Leo’s talk at EmberFest

Benedicte’s excited for the wins at her fractional roles: they’ve just launched their Framer plugin at Outseta; and she discovered the wonders of Make.com while creating a Stripe webhook for Whee. But despite doing a lot of stuff at work, Benedicte now makes sure she has time to take care of herself.

Meanwhile, Benedikt is enjoying the conference season. He just returned from EmberFest in Dublin where he met Leo in person for the first time. He’ll also be going to MicroConf Europe. The Userlist team’s also making great progress on company triggers.

Benedikt comes back from a short vacation. Benedicte talks about their struggles with estimated arrivals at Whee.

• EmberFest

Prior to his vacation in Munich last week, Benedikt and the Userlist team pushed a few of their upcoming features into production. He’ll also be meeting Leo for the first time in person this week at EmberFest in Dublin.

With so many factors that might affect the estimated arrivals of their rented bikes, Benedicte and the Whee team are looking for better solutions to this roadblock. She also shares her observations while she watches Lillian and the other neighborhood kids work on their lemonade stands.

Benedicte and Benedikt talk about their hobbies.

• EmberFest
• Cards Against Artisans

Now that the school year has started, Benedicte is enjoying a freer mental space. With this, she decided that her focus project for next quarter will be “Lovely Everyday Life” so she can do activities that make her everyday life lovelier. Benedicte also recently attended Laravel Live Denmark where she talked about the Joy of Side Projects.

Benedikt is making great progress with his drumming and is thinking about signing up for in-person lessons to further improve his skills. Leo will be talking at EmberFest in Dublin this September and will also be the first time that the two of them will be meeting in person.
