EduNews

Reflecting on my experience with the cold plunge after a hiatus, I admit it's not my favorite activity. Nonetheless, avoiding it due to a minor back wound was perhaps just an excuse to evade the discomfort. The cold water never fails to challenge me, making me wonder about its benefits beyond mere weight loss or physical health improvements. What I do appreciate about such challenging tasks, however, is how they fortify my ability to tackle other difficult endeavors with greater resilience. Recently, I embarked on a new project called EduNews, which was born out of a sudden idea. Rather than idly contemplating its potential, I decided to set a timer and dedicate 45 minutes to developing it. The result is EduNews, a platform accessible at Edune.ws, where individuals can stay updated on the latest developments in K-12 education and actively contribute their own insights. The platform is open to all, free of charge, with the aim of fostering a vibrant community passionate about education. Building EduNews was not only a fulfilling task but also a testament to my love for creating meaningful projects. I take pride in the simplicity of the domain name, Edune.ws, as it encapsulates the essence of what EduNews stands for. This venture is driven by a desire to provide a space where education enthusiasts can come together, share valuable information, and engage in fruitful discussions. I encourage everyone interested in the field of education to explore EduNews and become part of a community dedicated to empowering and informing others. The process of crafting this platform has been immensely rewarding, reaffirming my belief in the power of creation and collaboration in enriching our lives.

What is Build in Public Daily?

In this show, we share the struggles and challenges of growing and building stuff.

Cold plunge thoughts. Well, it's been a minute.

Haven't done the cold plunge for a while. I got a, uh, scratched my back in

the middle of the night and had this wound on my back for a while.

And so I didn't want to come getting water like that, but then it was just an

excuse because this is hard. It doesn't feel good.

Water's cold. How cold is it? My little thermometer's not in,

but it's cold, so I don't like doing this.

But again, why am I back? Well, I don't really think the weight loss thing is a thing.

I don't really think that this makes me healthier or anything like that.

But man, when I do something hard like this, it makes it a lot easier to resist

doing other things that are hard also.

So I had an idea for something the other day. And instead of just putzing around

and thinking about it, I said, I'm going to set a timer.

I'm going to see if I can build this in 45 minutes.

And so that's what I did. It's called EduNews.

Edune.ws edunews That's a pretty short domain name. I was pretty happy with that.

Edune.ws Go check it out. It's a place where you can go get all the latest news

and contribute the latest news about the K-12 education space.

And it's free. And it's going to be free forever because I want it to be a community

where people who are interested in education go to share the kind of stuff that is important to them.

So go check it out. E-D-U-N-E dot W-S.

It's pretty awesome. And I like making stuff. It's fun.
