The weekly honors · Sep 7 to Sep 13
Reads, shares, roses and permanent adornments all move a community project up the board. The register resets every Monday at midnight UTC.

“Guardrails are very important esp when working with automated online coaching, and also to really understand that there are somethings you cannot replace with a human coach when it comes to observing behaviour”
