How many times have you told yourself

• I’ll start that open source project I’ve been thinking of
• I’ll write that utility which will make my job easier
• I’ll enroll for that course on Artificial Intelligence and write that amazing recommendation system

and then did nothing?

Well, guess what. Time passes. Yes, really.
