It's okay, most employers in the US put a clause in your contract that says your IP belongs to them regardless of whether you develoepd it using company equipment or not. The nice thing about CA is that this clause is illegal and unenforceable (they still put it in there just in case you're easily fooled)
go to my workplace early or stay like 1h later than usual
In the US this would make any IP you develop for your sidehustle automatically belong to your employer AND you'd be expected to work on work stuff while you're there.
Oh crap, didn't know that. In France I'm even working on my company's MacBook and the work still stays mine according to law :p

Too long. Always too long.
First version of React+D3 was 3 to 4 weeks. Next version was 6 months. Current version was another 1 year or so. Now it needs more updates.
learnwhileyoupoop has been taking 2 months and I haven't even really gotten started yet.
The imgur blocker extension took 6 hours.
Progressive pain, but only until 0 otherwise it's unfair. Maybe something less aggressive, but I like the idea of being punished more for 2 days than just 2 points. Skipping a day should be a slap on the wrist, 2 days is no, 3 days should be a big no-no and so on.
Otherwise someone like @pugson could take 8 whole days off and not drop a single spot in the rankings.
Maybe look up game design? I'm sure this is something game designers have solved already.
Omg I love this idea!
Then on the 2nd off-day it drops by 2, 3rd day by 4, 4th day by 8 ... that would be some crazy fire under butt!
Agree! That would be less painful, than losing whole streak T_T
What? No that wouldn't work haha. Then you'd end up with a negative streak. (E.g. day 4 your streak is 4, and it drops by 8, you end up with -4).

I love this idea. Just be sure to stop at 0 and not push the member negative.
I like the "-n idea" instead of the lose-streak penalty. I would want to add something like an "intentional break". For example, I'll be offline in September (28 days). Although I'm not super obsessed with the streak I like seeing it grow like one generally likes seeing things grow (ok, not a virus or bacteria but anyway ^^). So, there could be a "shipping status" with 2 options shown on the shipper's profile with a text plus an icon, like: Option 1: "is shipping 👔" and Option 2: "is off-duty 🛀"
Love this idea! Hate logging a small task if it isn't true shipping! + Would be motivating to get back to work.
You know what is crazy fire under the butt? đź’Ł
Losing the whole streak when not doing a single thing in a day aka how it works at the moment.
It is called streak for a reason.
+1 great idea
As others have suggested, it could just stop at 0 in order to avoid negative streaks.

There is no better advice really. You just gotta keep going. But while you're keeping on keeping on, you can get help. Delegate. You can decide some things don't need to get done. Prioritize. Etc.
On a more serious note, I recommend listening to this podcast. Seth Godin makes a bunch of great points about just this sort of thing art19.com/shows/akimbo/episod…
