I thought there was a more recent discussion of this, but I couldn’t find it. Sorry!
Here’s my use case for some sort of continuous beeminding (this might be more complicated). I have a do-zero goal for reading after my bedtime. Last night, I had a very late dinner, pulled out my phone while eating, and then subsequently realized I had done some post-bedtime reading - so there’s a derailment on katriel/bedtime. Then, instead of going right to bed, I thought, well, I’ve already derailed, may as well read some more. Whereas, in my ideal world, I would derail immediately, and then once again be in the danger mode of a second derailment that same night.
Now, I realize there’s a personal workaround for this problem - I can commit to paying my pledge a second time via IFTTT if I derail on this or similar goals and then do something that constitutes a derailment again. I’ve been beeminding long enough that the rules I set for myself in fine print are iron clad, at least if I remember them, and I usually do. So I’ll do that now. But it has taken me a few years to figure this out…
