I once asked @lopp how he remembered all the anniversaries of bitcoin naysaying. He has a calendar he keeps them in when he sees them. Maybe you could do something similar - leave yourself a note in a calendar?

If it’s an interface issue, maybe writing an email to yourself and snoozing it would work?

Oh, that’s very similar to FutureMe that I mentioned in #911049

Both good ideas! I wonder why I didn't think of it.

I think it's because I don't know my calendar 6 months in advance, so I wasn't thinking in terms of dates and times. But I should be able to leave a calendar item in approximately the right week, and then just adjust when the actual date gets closer. Thanks!

This is just a random brain storming thought of how to gamerfly it.

What if:

There was a service that could let you make a note (the thing you want to remember) and pay some number of sats to submit.

Then the user would get back the sats if they redeem the note in the future.

This would incentives the user to search notes on the service for the topic they are working on. You would hate to "forget" about your sats from last semester.

Feedback appreciated.

You could do something like:

Lock <n> sats to be redeemable by you before <deadline> and by a charity of your choice after.

Earliest repo demonstrating stuff like this that i know of is @petertodd's CLTV demos
